Volatile/Morphic - Worth extra 0.20x xp?
I know people frequently aren't efficiency hounds, but you'd have to make a pitiful amount of money for knives to truly be worth it, especially considering cutting logs is substantially slower than stringing bows.

Training construction
I didn't know you could make oak doors, but if there's a benefit to it I'll do that instead. I suppose they're better because they require more planks to make? Thanks for the answers! I suppose I should have quoted the post I was responding to, my bad >< Larders are still the way to go until you hit 74 (unless you're willing to do mahogany tables), and you're exactly right about doors.

Hardest 99?
If you do zmi to 99 starting from 65-75, RC will probably average out to a faster rate than slayer. And these days there's really no reason to go the cash route with RC. However there's no great way to put a rate on slayer; it can vary incredibly depending on combat stats, gear, tasks skipped/canceled, etc. I'd still put RC at the top, closely followed by slayer.

47 mill and no idea what to spend it on.
If you're really dying to spend it, now's a good time to train herb. And I mean now. Normally I'd suggest saving it for turmoil.

Effigy Help. (please look)
Living rock caverns. And yes :]

Why are you doing larders instead of doors?

LRC on W84 is for smithing assistance.

Familiar for armadyl
A bob, with a healer pouch to use after it's empty. Either that or a steel titan.

Hardest 99?
Once you hit 80, living rock caverns, bam afk mining. Easy to hit 50k+/hour at 90+ mining, and that's banking the ores. Dropping them you can go over 70k, although that's less afkish, still much easier than crossmining granite/sandstone.

Anys news on the cat staff? Is it just for an emote?

Sooo I think I dungeoneered to much...
most 138s wanna left click everything they shuld make it that way >.> Honestly, there should be a toggle option for attack to be the top choice, regardless of level.

Exp/hr
Huh. Huh. Greater tasks are okay exp, but unless you can find an empty room of them in kuradels dungeon, they're probably not worth doing, and since you have a steel you probably care less about crims. I can usually come close to clearing a room of them myself on a mid-pop world, and there's always someone there on higher worlds. I get 30-40k/hour average, that's with extremes/turmoil/rapier/cannon, but without a steel. The lowend rate though is usually me taking a task to relax, like desert strykes, or banking bones on a dragon task. You should have no problem hitting 40k+. Edit: Smages are usually not that crowded for me, but you are right, killing them in the best spawn on a high-pop world is still pretty tragic exp

70 agility
I've heard the penguin course frequently suggested as a good alternative, but I don't have any experience there myself.

70 agility
Ape atoll is pretty abysmal at 52. If you really don't want to do wildy course, then try werewolf at 60.

Oh my, congratulations. I'd try to shell that out on W2 as fast as possible.

How it should have ended
10 strength would be a little much, I don't think 8 strength is unreasonable though. Substantially worse attack bonuses then a rune defender, and pretty much nonexistent defence compared to a DFS.

Nomad Setup/Inven
If you haven't fought him at all yet it might be wise to try a dry run, with an inventory of sharks or something. When you run out of supplies you can always LoS him to reset the fight, then walk out. Not necessary, but allows you to get used to the fight. Beyond that, I can't give any real advice on your setup, I ranged him. People sure seem to love using kyatts on his berserk phase though.

God book discussion
+8 Str? I doubt it. Thats more Str then the DFS, and more then bcp+tassies. 8 strength is not overdoing it for a bandos book. DFS provides significant defence, and that's really the only reason to use one, people really overvalue the strength. A rune defender meanwhile would still retain incredible attack bonuses. Edit: too slow!
-
God book discussion
This. The bonuses on the new books don't make much sense, when you compare them to an unholy book. They're basically just guthix books, with stats slightly tweaked towards each gods theme. The arma/ancient books should have higher range/magic bonuses then an unholy book, and the bandos one should include strength. I actually think it's pretty likely they'll be changed.

Where to mele train?
Slayer is the best way to train combat if you actually care about slayer. This is not always the case.

What ring?

What ring?
In increases the chance of addy javelins? Anyway the Row gives you a 10% higher chance of getting a rare drop so lets say that 80% of the Gp Value of your drops is from "rare" drops, that would mean that for a ring to be better at money making it would have to make you kill monsters 8% faster i don't think there are any rings can do this. Except both of those percentages were just made up by you, just now. Not to mention that killing things faster means more exp to relevant skills, and most people value their time in such a way that the exp from a zerker/fero ring is much more important than the fairly insignificant loot from the rare drop table. I remember seeing that the Row gives you a 10% higher chance of getting a rare item on a jagex page, yes i made the 80% up as an estimate. I have looked at the rare drop table page and it states clearly that it is not a complete list more like a list of examples, i dont think jagex would have overlooked things such as Gwd drops, sol, abby whips, and d claws. I never said that the row would be better if its xp your after. Jagex themselves have stated that unique drops are not included on the rare drop table, and are therefore not effected by a RoW.

Nah, just regular fury. Fury with an ornamental kit more resembles a glory (t), all spiky and stuff (cache images of it were posted earlier). Edit: 3rd image down
