With bunyips, only take 1 or 2 as you need a ton of invo space to pick up raw drops..

Very nice, 8/10 :)

Go for 90 range! Grats!!

Indeed, also mages are bad exp at only 85 hp I think highest. Mages are fab XP, 65-70K an hour Grats on the level, don't listen to anyone who flames you for camping. Why else would you get that level? :P

Are you joking? 68 summoning is the level that showed me how extremely usefull summoning is. Without it I would still be struggling to get 60+ kills at dks ... 10/10 He didn't say that Bunyips aren't useful, but that 68 is easy to get to :P 6/10 Pretty easy to get but is for me the second step in the amazingness of summoning (First one being bird :P)

Range cape is trimmed now :twss:

My dad just read this, ran upstairs and asked me how much I could sell my lot for..

Ew. Seriously ew.. 500+ solo kills no hilts. You also followed my guide to get this. Makes me sick #-o

Yeah, you can adjust the amount of brews:res that you bring as you get better at dodging Zil's attacks. Those ranarr seeds build up, I had 86 before I noticed lol.

^ Exactly. Until you try every possible kc (and it goes up to 4000) about 1000 times each, you will never know which kc is the best. Even if you try them all 1000 times, what with barrows items being quite rare it could still be down to luck. All you've really done is made an explanation of the game theory and then said: I got lucky with 13! Thus it must be the magic number! Actually kc goes upto 9999, then it says "Too many!" if you kill another. I like getting 30 KC using crumble undead on the skeletons, 35k Mage XP/ 4 runs per hour

I don't even get excited by whip/d boot/sara sword drops anymore I'm so used to them. I havn't buried bones since around 2004 lol. With herbs, if I accidentally pick one up I'll clean then drop it usually but I prefer just to go on to the next monster..I basically leave whatever I can to get through a task in one trip or stay as long as possible if camping. I leave bones at metal drags as randoms are a real pain there. I have friends who bury bones there and others that actually bank all bones.

I thought of making a 'complete' guide to range but when the new rune c'bows/dark bow/chinchompas came out I decided it was far too big a task. Good luck, should be near complete by like v10.0 : There are a hell of alot of places to train range and tons of different equipment that you need to list, I suggest that you don't call this the 'complete' guide until you're finished.

It's good enough, you just need to get used to dodging the melee attacks

Lol, adding me is fine. Offline for a few random rants on here right now though.

They are dreadfully slow xp, I'll warn you now. Like 20k an hour. Yaks are 50 HP with almost 0 defence. Range slayer tasks if you like the excitement of drops.

2005 sometime, see in my pic that there is no hunter or summoning lol.

Lol, I got 99 range in august 2006. But thanks anyway :P Yeah they are the things that explode, and I'd love them if they gave 1/3 normal xp or something, meh what can I do? Nothing. Except rant with no good reason.

DFS is by far the superior shield, I've had one for over 6 months and will probably never sell it. It is, however an expensive item and if you are ranging aviansies with a low budget then I'd go for the crystal, granite if you're too lazy to do the quests for crystal.

Crystal shield full has 80 ranged defense, but crystal shield 6/10 ties the DFS with 72, and then continues to drop as it degrades. Since you have no choice but to let it fully degrade, you're looking at lower defense for more than half of the time, plus spending money to recharge. The DFS is the clear victor in the long term. Obviously a 21m shield is going to be better. He has a 1M budget, a crystal shield is better than other options (defence-wise) for 8/10 charges. DFS also only has a -5 Ranged offence bonus. The quote I was responding to was This is not true. It clearly is true. Crystal shield - 80 defence, DFS - 72 Defence. Not true. So, 3/10th of the time it's better, 1/10th of the time it's equal and 6/10th of the time it's worse. Also, Thanks. Note my above post.

You need to earn 400 points then buy the ability to put them together. Just use any of the items with another while having all the items you need in your inventory. Unless you mean the earmuff/facemask thing, which you learn to make in the quest. (Use earmuffs with facemask)

nice pic m8

Why not farm the herbs anyway? Or some of them at least. If you stay on lunars while you train, you can do a farming round every 90 minutes saving/making you money. In summary, farm as many ranarrs as you can and buy the rest :P I'm not an expert on chins, 40m is just a figure I've heard being mentioned for 90-99.

Crystal shield has better defence than DFS. Let's look at the options here; Rune Kiteshield: +46 Ranged Defence -2 Ranged Offence Cost: 40k (Saradomin Kite; 900k, Zamorak Kite; 650k) Notes: Cheap and cheerful but can count as a god item. Granite Shield: +65 Ranged Defence -8 Ranged Defence Cost: 90k Notes: Cheap and good defence Toktz-Ket-Xil: +65 Ranged Defence -8 Ranged Defence Cost: 340k Noes: Same as granite yet 4 times the cost? I think not! Dragon Square shield: +50 Ranged Defence -2 Ranged Offence Cost: 780k Notes: Need to complete Legend's quest to start Crystal Shield: +80 Ranged Defence -10 Ranged Offence Cost: Starts from 720k Notes: Looses power as it looses charges (looses charged when you get hit, 1/10 crystal shield has +62 ranged defence) Dragonfire Shield: +72 Ranged Defence -5 Ranged Offence Cost: 21m Notes: Out of your price range Personally I would go with the granite shield. Rune Kiteshield has the advantage that it can also be used as a Saradomin/Zamorak item if you use the TT god armours so you may find that that fits in better.
