Herblore order
Just added up 2 different ways of going about this: 1. Mixing supers+extremes first, then doing highest to lowest exp pots (spec restores>brews>ppots) - 3,466,290 exp and slightly over 5 hours 2. Mixing the supers beforehand, then doing extremes+everything else - 3,382,865 exp and slightly under 4 hours Mixing the supers beforehand is around 80k less exp, but around an hour faster, leaving you more time if you're leveling something else. Pretty pointless if you're just leveling herb though, I guess.

Herblore order
By exp per pot. High to low. edit: in all honesty, I'd mix the supers now, if you have unf's sitting around for them

CLS, or rapier?
Er, no, rapier > CLS at both of those. Considering OP is maxed melee, has turm and extremes/ovl's, rapier is superior for almost everything. CLS is better for zil and (possibly) better for graardor. That's about it. Also keep in mind that maul > CLS at both of the aforementioned bosses, unless you're using a divine. CR meanwhile is better for almost every slayer task, better at DK's, and according to quite a lot of people better at kril (I've heard he has low defense). Edit: there's also a huge thread discussing this TLDR:

ZMI altar
Banking at eniola is the confirmed fastest way to bank, even if you have to carry stacks of laws/astrals. Jewelery ports are an okay alternative, however a ring of kinship is never worth it over duelling rings efficiency-wise, the cost is absolutely insignificant compared to the time saved. Ring of kinship is horrifically slow.

Exact time of bonus xp weekend start
They're starting the weekend at noon, rather than midnight. Probably for accessibility or something. I'd rather have it start in 2.5 hours :[ So that'd be noon on friday, or (as stated) 7 am in est (GMT-5).

DevBlog - Elite Tasks - Development
Armor looks bland/uninteresting. Not a big deal for me though, still really looking forward to the elite diaries. Edit: redundancy :>

ZMI altar
Don't take a terrorbird, use a parasite/lurker and pop 2 dose energy pots if you need to. Unless you're 3 pouching at zmi or something, which makes little sense, the extra ess from a familiar is important to maintaining a decent exp rate.

ZMI altar
Banking at the ZMI banker is faster than teleing to lunar isle to bank. Equipment doesn't make much of a difference, whatever you'd wear for abyssing (bear head, hunter camo stuff, etc). Prayer bonus is also really a non-issue considering the location of the altar.

Quick Slayer Questions
How can anyone hate Suqahs? Go to the south of the island in a little area with two spawns, make sure auto-retaliate is on, go make a sandwich and come back when the task is done. If you're really ambitious you can check the piles of bones for clue scrolls every once in a while. Well maybe not quite that easy, but I'm not really exaggerating very much either. That's the slow way to kill them, better off cannoning the ones just northeast of the bank. Suqah tasks are generally short, boring and unfulfilling. If you cannon them they provide an okay, yet not amazing exp rate. All comes down to preference, I guess.

Rapier or longsword?
It's also worth mentioning that a rapier+maul pretty much outperforms a CLS in every conceivable situation. Unless it's your calling in life to tank zil with a divine, or something.

What should I cook from level 90 cooking to 99
Monks to 92-94, sharks to 95, rocktails to 99. The burnrate on sharks starting from 92 is not all that high, you might want to consider starting them earlier than 94. Shouldn't make much of a difference either way.

What to buy?
Dragon armor is basically cosmetic. A DFH is inferior to a neitz helm for pretty much everything, and barrows armor is superior for legs and chest slots (the degradation is really not a factor). Bandos is widely used because it actually has offensive bonuses, which are quite invaluable. Claws are a decent spec weapon, but not worth it (in general) unless you have optimal gear already, they barely make a difference even with spec restores. They should be valued higher if you're doing a lot of MHing, however. Godswords are pretty much junk.

Chaotic Rapier vs Longsword
It still can make quite a difference if your targets have high hp. Only tasks I don't use my rapier on are daggs/abby specs.
-
92-99 range via red chins
Lol, just over the same amount of time? Most players can make money for chins to 99 faster than they could knife the exp at yaks. It's generally a complete waste, unless you're poor as hell and resourceless.

spending money - gear
Same exact bonuses as torag's/dharok's, but cheaper.

Slayer and Black Demons?
I usually finish up a 240 demon task in 40-45 minutes cannoning them in taverly. Something like 130 crims/hour.

70 Prayer
70 is most certainly worth it, piety is invaluable for a wide variety of things, and is almost always worth using. However, the best way to get prayer exp is with a gilded altar, which will not benefit from the exp multiplier of the bonus weekend. So there's no real reason to train it at that specific time (if that's what you were referring to by 'this weekend').

Sals is the best?
Don't have the full pic anymore but I'll get someone to confirm it's legit :x Someone suggested I join and I just figure I have something decent to post now lold. You just joined, and you consider posting an image that basically advertises another fansite as 'decent'? Come on now, who's going to believe that? Also, there's a sticky thread for posting images, on the offchance you're serious.
