I use em all the time and take along 5 or so junk food items to use up before I need to empty a basket of strawberrys. I find it annoying to get them out 1 at a time if I bring along a full inventory of em.

Thats like saying that the drag axe, whip, chins, Pest Control, Pyramid Plunder, monk fishing, or ZMI shouldnt have been introduced because they made the existing 99s less valued. The game has changed, and will continue to change. You dont want better weapons etc because it will speed up your training, or make boss monsters available at an earlier level? Gimme a break.

It takes 4 minutes to get 28, bank and get back. Thats about 2.5 hours to get enough hides and save yourself 80k. If you can make 80k in 2.5hours doing something else in F2P you enjoy more than hacking at cows - then do that to earn back your cash - otherwise hack away!

You will still need 360 or so silver bars

I went to the ones in the well and slayer darted the Master Turoth, then proceeded to use up about 300 deaths before getting a leaf bladed sword. Switched my gear, and went back with melee and the sword rocks on these. The sword drop, combined with the decent seed drops, clues and alchables makes Turoths a definite must do assignment for me. The best thing now is that they are so close to a bank. Plonk your house in Polly, and you are right on top of them!

Provided you are willing to gamble on getting a bad task, or have 100 points spare to block a ton of steels - then I would go with Duradel for your bonus task. I use my points on blocking bad tasks atm. Once I have 3 or 4 of the worst out the way I will go for the sweet mask :)

I use Chaeldar and am 107 combat (100 without summoning). Chaeldar gives better tasks for my level in terms of xp per hour as there are many decent tasks available. Duradel gives me too many tasks that I don't have the points to block yet (Steels, Skeletal Wyverns, Mith drags, waterfiends) and some that are just too expensive for me to train on as I don't own a set of Guthans. Once I have Guthans, and can block 4 Duradel tasks though, I will be visiting him for my 10th/50th tasks for sure!

Cant you get shards for 21 ea or less through buying pouches on GE and exchanging for shards? Pyrelords give 21gp returns if I recall correctly.

If your question is: Can I buy all herbs and seconds, then make them into potions at a profit? Then your answer is: No way!

Indeed it is :)

Buy 710 cowhides and kill a further 100 cows in Lumby and bank the hides then tan 40 into normal leather and the rest into hard leather. Make 40 or so more chaps until you are level 28, then make another 770ish hard bodys to get your 40 crafting You will use up your 80k in doing this. Altenatively you could just kill all 800 odd cows and save yourself the 80k OR you could buy yourself 400 silver bars and make tiaras and once you are done, sell them and you should have enough to buy the remaining 120 bars to reach 40 cratfing.

Seeds are hard to get though, especially as drops. In the last 4 weeks of slaying, I have had 5 seeds, and each produce only 1 turnip!

22M hacked? Well, thats now about 22 hours worth of killing at Godwars. Yep, money is infinitely easier to come by now, and the introduction of Grand Exchange has meant that most commonly used items are very easy to buy. No more standing in Fally park searching for an elusive bit of armour for a Uri clue!

Highly doubtful that anyone would get so many slayer points that it stopped counting.

This is what I did: Used red chins off and on from around the 91 range mark, and gained between 190k per hour to 240k per hour. I would use on average 1k red chins per hour, and at 50 prayer could last about 1.5 hours with a full load of prayer pots. I ended up using range pots aswell, and using eagle eye throughout my trips, netting me far better results for my money.

Exactly the same for me :)

Green drags in chaos tunnels are much better/faster and don't have the revenant worries attached. Plus you can take a sip of a super set, bank it to maximise your trip. Take along a terrorbirdy to bank more hides/bones per hour. You can also afford far better melee gear if you don't have to worry about dieing!

Where's the Best place to train any Combat Skills? Depends on your current stats. If all are 80+, then desert bandits are great. Expensive, but great. Otherwise, you are looking at much lower combat monsters such as Flesh Crawlers etc. What's the best way to make money? Again, if using a high stat, then runecrafting is still one of the best. Boss hunting will make you better money, but a lot riskier if you don't know what you are doing. If you have no ranked skills, then bowstring making, snape grass picking, blue dragon scale picking are all good money earners. What's the Easiest Skill to get to 99? Easy is hard to define. On an unlimited budget, then crafting/fletching is very easy and fast and take less than 15 hours for each though would cost you in excess of 100 billions geepees! Easy in terms of low clicking, yet still fast would be cooking. What's the Cheapest Skill to get to 99? Mining. Cost you all of a rune pickaxe! If you want to buy a skill though, then firemaking would be it. Burn willows for easy xp at very cheap prices.

Your melee setup will be fine. There is no new way.

I too have heard 1:10,000. I have killed around 4k of em, no drops, then again I have also killed over 10k fire giants without a drag drop! Luck is not my friend.

For me it would be mining. I get all the ore I need from MTK, and monster drops to enable me to make my cannonballs, so havent used my pick since getting a few levels to meet a quest requirement.

Herbs are for cash, you wont be seeing much in the way of experience by planting/harvesting them. Trees and fruit trees are easy, take very little of your playing time, and you get a sudden rush of xp when you check and replant each day.

P3 550, 128Mb RAM with a 64Mb graphics card Aint no way in hell this puppy will play the new version! I guess having a computer for 8 years, 2 reformats, and god knows how many reinstalments of windows isnt too bad. Time to retire it to the kiddies, and get me an upgrade!

99 in all skills, get quest cape, and get all the best rewards from all minigames = game complete. 200M in all skills is not required to say you have mastered the game imo.
