    No idea about quick but worthwhile ones are: Fairy Tale parts II and III Back to my Roots Blood Runs Deep Love Story My Arm's Big Adventure Temple at Senntisten and all prerequisites Wouldn't it be easier to choose which ones you really don't want to do instead?
  2. With the price of nature runes as they are now, I think they're even cheaper if you High Alchemy. I -think- better magic xp and savings comes from charging the orbs yourself though.
  3. If you don't have the crafting level by the time you get the slayer points, you can request assist to make a few rings to start off with. Either way, I'd go with what has been said above.

    I went from a Virgo to a Leo lol, totally changes everything I swear I've read about the existence of another sign before, not sure if it was this one, based on actual constellations. In fact, I think it was this one. So I don't see why it's in the news today all of a sudden.
  5. There was someone there when I went in the day it was released. I just assumed it was continuously packed since :P I think it can certainly be a reality; nearly everyone I go dungeoneering with who isn't 85 yet seems to be going for frosts >_>
  6. Just to note, I have a Ring of Vigour firstly because I misinterpreted the specialness of the special effect and secondly because it is more useful in skilling. Faster EEE charges mean more safety when Thieving and doing Agility. Of course, when I do consider doing MA, I would go for Berserker but I just don't think it's necessary right now. Also just harvested my first Torstol patch - 350k profit from Trollheim alone :P It does look rather profitable.
  7. I'd also mention that you might want to consider using curses. Having Leech Mage, Leech Defence and Leech Ranged on Quick makes the first part of the fight far easier. Probably an easier way of draining defence than BGS. Also note how you can hide behind the pillar during the entire illusion to drop vials, decant brews, rest, take BOB items, and dismiss BOB or summon Kyatt if required. Also, how Absorb Magic does absorb the MAX-1 attack so you won't necessarily die if you don't pot or eat to max with dragonhide. Personally, I don't have the best stats but I managed to get him to Berserker mode without even taking all the items from my Tortoise (leaving me about 22 brews for the last 25%). Could always use a few more Rocktails because it's hard to dismiss BOB when he's in Berserker mode - try to summon Kyatt before then during one of the illusions so you can actually use it. I'm sure the end would have been much easier for me had I been able to use Kyatt, especially if you're tanking his hits because you won't be able to hit as much when you're healing all the time. I never tried it, but I hear sidestepping Nomad during Berserker mode is effective. However, the main thing you would want to avoid is him calling you a 'Coward'. That's the main reason I failed on my first tries. But yeah, nice and simple.
  8. Thanks for the suggestions so far. I have started planting Torstol in the Trollheim patch (have quite a lot of Stranger Plants) and will move onto using it on the others once I get enough Torstol seeds and when my Ranarr/Snapdragon seeds deplete. I went ahead and sold SS and some other stuff. Put in an offer in for Verac's Skirt. Not sure on the Berserker Ring though. It's 4.5m for a 1+ strength increase above the Ring of Vigour minus the special bonus - convince me :P I'll get the Chaotic Maul as soon as I get a task in which it would be beneficial. Keeping the Obsidian Shield as I still use it for some things like BA and that extra 110k won't do much anyway. By Slayer, I assume you mean Kuradal for all tasks? Any further suggestions would be appreciated. :thumbup:
  9. What is the best way of making money with my stats (in signature)? Non-combat methods would be preferred if possible. If suggesting combat, in terms of equipment I have: [spoiler=Equipment]Head: Neit, FSH Neck: Fury, Glory, Arcane, Ranging Cape: Ardougne 3, 2 non-trimmed capes, SW Cape, Alerter Body: BCP, Black D'hide Legs: D Legs, Black D'hide Weapons: Rapier, Whip, SS, DDS, EEE, Korasi's, Rune C'Bow, Crystal Bow, Dark Bow, Staff of Light Shield: D Def, Obsidian, Sara/Guth/Zam book Boots: Dragon, Snakeskin Gloves: Barrows Ring: Vigour, Explorer 4, Slaying Also: Full Void, Full Proselyte, Full Mystic, 5 sets of Rune, any quest items, stuff I forget because I never use, and have a spare 500k+ DG tokens if that counts for anything. I don't sell equipment either, only buy if you're suggesting I get something like a Berserker Ring I haven't really tried making money before; most of it came incidentally. But now I've dropped down to 5m so I need some money back to not feel stuck. I do dailies and herb runs atm (with Juju potions) but not entirely sure which herbs I should be growing. So help please :pray:
  10. For interest's sake, squashing a Grand Seed lowers Farming by 5 but is entirely impractical :P
  11. Yes, I detest degrading armour. I like the idea of it - I feel it it necessary - but I wouldn't use it myself if there are sufficient non-degrading alternatives. I do use Chaotic Rapier despite the fact it degrades mostly because it is just one piece of weaponry that I can keep track of that helps significantly enough to warrant the bother of paying for degradation. I'm personally hoping for armour that requires gold bars to maintain instead of gold coins :P Or mage armour that requires body or mind or soul or even fire runes to recharge. Maybe when it comes to the time when there are too many of those items. Naturally, scaling up like Barrows armour so that higher rc levels require fewer runes of course.
  12. Well you're looking at it the wrong way. Doing 64 Werewolves for a task is faster slayer xp because you need to complete on average 4 Goblin assignments, 4 Banshee assignments and 4 Crawling Hand assignments from Turael just to get the same xp as 1 werewolf assignment from Vannaka. It is faster when you have the combat level to kill them as it means less time wandering back and forth to Burthorpe, walking to wherever you're slaying, time running between kills, wasted overkill hits, etc. Even if werewolves aren't the best example...
  13. You're right; I heard it somewhere and it turns out it's the strongest staff in terms of melee stats or something.
  14. I use Withered Vines when I'm hunting Draconic; I figure I might as well use them if I get them from the Common Jadinkos on the way, nothing else to do with them apart from throw them away. I guess most people only use bait if they have to (i.e. pawyas, grenwalls)
  15. Never considered it before, but that does sound like a good solution, and not an entirely unreasonable one. I prefer solution 2. To balance it, maybe you need a certain runecrafting level to charge the staves (so basically upgrade it from its current state). I mean...they're not exactly the most expensive pieces of dungeoneering equipment. Both staves do have a use though; they're the strongest F2P staves :P
  16. Yes spend the tokens. It's worth saving that 5m or whatever it is.
  17. Isn't a virus Latin for poison anyway, with this whole Latin theme going about
  18. Interesting. I won't be able to get any of those pieces of armour in the foreseeable future. Costs are outside my reasonable range, and with degrades, does not make the price skip from Bandos worth it. Makes me wonder how they'll ever implement level 90 and higher armour. It's neat that Nex is female ;p
  19. I'd say do them in this order: Nomad's Requiem - might as well try this now. If you fail, go ahead and do another quest and return to it later if you like. Do No Evil - lowest construction requirement, xp towards following, Get thieving from either Pyramid Plunder as you mentioned (don't think it's the most efficient method, but it's easy) or maybe blackjacking Menaphite Thugs, or maybe coshing those guys in the Lumbridge guild or maybe Master Farmers. Try everything :P Love Story - second lowest construction requirement, xp towards following. The Void Stares Back - hopefully with training and quest rewards, you'll have 70 construction. Within The Light - agility requirement from werewolf course possibly (ape atoll might fail too often to be sensible below 69) While Guthix Sleeps - do the farming requirement last. Don't spend penguin points on farming, stack that into prayer or something instead. That way, you will have 75 prayer by the time you do the following. You could choose to spend the xp rewards from this in prayer too if you like. Add the Jade Vine to your "run" if it isn't there already. Blood Runs Deep - you should have the prayer "requirement" by now.
  20. It would be interesting to see whether there are still more Jedi Knights than Jews in the UK.
  21. There are some D&Ds which do not normally show up on the toolbar (such as the high alchemy charges left on Explorer Ring). They only show up when you use it but won't appear to say 'You can now do X'. It is possible that the ones that show up aren't always the same for everyone but depends on what you do. My toolbar has Bert on it but not Hanky Points though it did when I downloaded it, possibly because I never get any Hanky Points.
  22. I don't MH either, so I'm not preparing for Nex. Even if I did, my stats aren't high enough for it. Not preparing for it in any other ways either as I don't do any merchanting, though I might consider crafting some bloods or deaths.
  23. Now that I've seen the picture from the KB, I see what the problem is. The problem is that the picture in the KB is wrong. In reality, the prestige xp would also be 106 and not 3046. I think it was said somewhere that the picture was from when the xp rates were different (i.e. before release). So yeah, what you're asking is actually impossible and the KB lies.
  24. That is if you play the same floor again on the same reset. Are you playing every floor on every reset?
  25. I'd say it's worth it. It's useful for downing Nomad (if you're ranging) and it won't be such a huge jump the next time you decide to level.
