But if you have no need for charms in any sort of reasonable future, would you still pick them up? I've started slaying today and not picking them up and tbh it's so much more relaxing, faster, easier and more generous on your inv space.

I've been trying to train my slayer to 85+ (83/85) and attack to 99 but lately I've been very confused about charms. I have 72 summoning and bunyip is all the healing I can find the need for in my slayer tasks. The only place where I could really make use of a unicorn is mith drags, but with piety/slayer mask I can do an assignment in one trip anyway. The point is, I'm starting to think that picking up charms every time harms your xp/hr in assignments, you wouldn't think it, but if you pick up 1-2 drops every time you kill pretty much any slayer task monster, it really seems it. Has anyone else just left charms on the floor when you're trying to power train other skills? Perhaps it's less apparent to richer characters who can easily afford to use the charms they get?

May stretch screen for some: [hide=]Finally got this, dboots arent worth anything anymore but still happy to get it :P I went to camp at spirit mages straight after, got exactly 400 kills before I had to leave because my friends wanted me to help them with something. Got 4 d boots + 600 ish pure ess - it added up to over 1m which isn't bad. I've made a total of 16 d boots including my wild pie kills. I cropped the pic of it but forgot to save it (LOL) so here's an equally entertaining pic: Wasn't very entertaining when I realised I lost my karil top (worth 800k) upon death :( Luckily could afford the loss, else I wouldnt have tried it :P (my second trip, 1st one I soloed a shard lol). Dont really understand why I died tbh - I did everything exactly the same as the 1st time - melee protect, piety, sup def pot, sharks, 90 def, 85 mage. The second I entered all I saw was 20+ hits everywhere, no way could have out eaten it. Who knows.[/hide]

swiftkit is legal, and safe, but make sure you download it from (or a link from) the official site. Scan everything once you download it anyway, I've found viruses in programs that i would never guess would be infected. A very good habit. Unless Tip.It changed their rules since I last left, I think talking about 3rd party programs isn't allowed so this might get locked ;)

At your stats, you have no hope of meleeing black dragons anywhere near as fast as range. I've found that meleeing is similar or slower when meleeing out of task (90+ stats wise) but with a slayer mask and a sup set it becomes much faster then range. Though you should definetly stick to ranging them in evil chicken lair, if you cant get acess to the evil chicken lair, cancel the task or kill baby black dragons in chaos tunnels to save your slay points.

Very nice, I can confirm it's safe if there's any doubt left. Only annoyance is it has a tendancy of loading the wrong picture for items, can make it hard to find certain items if you dont know their exact name

A nice tip, I was wondering is something like this was possible but was too lazy to look into it :P Trouble is once this is out it spreads like wildfire and the cost of pouches where this is profitable goes up fast. Enjoy it while you can, i'm regretting spending 3m on shards just a few days ago :lol: 9/10 for the idea :

Thanks for the replies :P I've finally gotten around to improving the pictures in the red dragon section. Along with it I've added a summon to the inventory and recommended a different spot in the red dragon room. It turns out that wild dogs will nearly never bother you in the north eastern section of the dungeon! I was a bit lazy so you might notice some crappy edditing in the brim dungeon picture :D I'm adding a charm section in a second, and then I'll start re-timing the trip with a BoB. Red dragons dont seem to be great for charms, they have an awesome drop rate (1 per drop) but far too many green charms, you'd expect that they'd drop red charms more with their colour theme and level :P Edit: Added Charms and new gp/hr for red drags. New gp per hr is around 270k which is much better. I won't update the profit graph untill I've updated all guides with my new stats (got around 5 levels in each stat since I started red dragons) and summoning pouches.

+1, alot less then what I expected from this update, or from what I can see so far at least.

OK thanks everyone, got my answer. I'll just sell deaths, I dont need teleports to Summona and can care less about the walk to the smoke dungeons. 81 slay, 50 tasks coming up soon so I cant wait to make back some of the cash I used on all those cannonballs 8-)

How? You still have to bank at Ardy and a tele from ardy bank to your house is pretty lazy (though I'm pretty lazy with my teleports :D ), doesn't really save that much time. It seems like the best summon to take to any location is a terrorbird (or a yak if you can use it), I looked at war tortoises, they're really expensive :shock: . I'll edit my pictures and some info soon.

Depends what you determine as dangerous, I bring combination of sharks and strawberries to KBD, and use the strawberries in-between kills, works really well. Plenty of other places but I'm assuming by dangerous you mean bosses and near-bosses (mith drags).

1 (4) prayer potion 2 shark- 40hp 2 (2) prayer potion-heals prayer and 24hp 1 shark -20hp 44>40 10% better You wont always need prayer and hp simultaneously and there is better food out there then sharks nowadays. Pineapple pizza = 22hp, cheaper then monk price if slives and pizzas bought separate. Strawberries = 30hp, roughly monk price as well. In monster hunting, you can find a palce to hide and eat strawberries and pizzas without being attacked, so that's not a problem. Strawberries: 1 (4) P Pot. 2 Strawberry baskets - 60hp 2 (2) P mixes - 24hp 1 Strawberry basket - 30hp 60>54. It's easier to use aswell, dont have to time your eating. PKing wise: 1 (4) P Pot. 2 tuna potatoes - 44hp 2 (2) P Mixes - 24hp 1 tuna potato - 22hp 46 > 44 - But do you really think everything is going to time out perfectly in wildy? You also lose a round by eating the p mix. Use whichever you like better though, some places you dont need more then 2 doses per trip, so mixes are better there.

The guide is nothing to do with visages, they just serve as a bonus if you want to hunt black dragons. Draconic isn't a word Jagex made up, it means something related to dragons, which this guide is ("Dragony" isn't a word :P ). I'm not planning on making a metal dragon guide either, there are already so many good ones out there I'd just be wasting my effort. :D

Yeah that's got my attention, I only recently came back to RS and have been working to get my summoning to a standard level (67 atm). Once I get bunyip I'll try out some BoB's and bunyip, to see which is more useful. Gotta say though, I'm extremely jealous of anyone who can use pack yaks =P~ Thanks :

My kyatt forgot which way is down?

I'm far too lazy to do the math for my opinion, but if someone has I'd love to see it :P I completely disagree with saving blue charms tbh. Though Geysers give 783xp/charm, something like a karamthulu gives 510. Ignoring the fact that the difference there isn't even that unbelievably enormous (though considerable), you have to consider that if I use my blue charms on low summons while I'm leveling, I can reach higher level crim/gold/green summons much more quickly. So while you might be training with bloated leaches gaining 215xp/charm I could be training with smoke devils gaining 268xp/charm. So in the end, the time may even be completely wasted. Of course, it's all theory but I'm pretty happy with saying you can level faster overall using blues constantly.

And partyhats alch for 1 gp! Exactly, even if Jagex had a market price apposed to a alch price, it would be a guess and no better then ours. I agree with crim charms easily breaching 6kea, and you have to be nuts to think even a gold charm could cost 50ea, but if charms were made all of a sudden tradeable, it's practically guaranteed that the price would be huge for the first few weeks, if it weren't for ge I'd bet we would see some pretty crazy numbers being offered.

Oh, sorta disapointing \= I guess my only other option is for cancelling tasks I dont have room to ban and buying/selling deaths.

Just got 80 slay/slayer helmet, i'm not convinced it was the best choice but I haven't tried the new slayer dungeon either. What should I use my points on now? I dont have the patience for the smith level needed for making slayer rings (and even then I already have plenty of ways of teleporting around with 70 con + all quests finished). Neither do I want to fletch broad bolts, I have the money to buy them. I was leaning towards slayer exp, but I don't know if the reward is decent (i'd like 83 slayer a lot atm ) but it looks like I could fund a lot of my summoning costs if i bought slayer dart casts and sold the deaths (I really hope the helmet is worth it because I could have made a free 770k or so from those points :lol: ). This is all after banning all the tasks I hate of course. (Never again 6 gargoyle tasks in ~14 tasks =P~ ) Thanks :) EDIT: If I'm not too late, I also was wondering what the slayer point boost at 50 kills was with duradel, is it more then the typical 75 at every 10 tasks?

Do not bring: Rol, spec weapon (unless it's d b axe), glory. I was experimenting with my inv :P Best training spot overall in RS if you ask me. I've never seen anyone there (that may have changed, was ~2 weeks ago), they nearly NEVER do damage, salve WORKS, no revs means you can surf forums or do whatever you want while your killing them and the rune drops are amazing for their level. In that picture, I only picked up runes when I had to exit to get agressiviness back (you do have to go into wildy for a few seconds, yes.). 90 atk 90 str 90 def and combat potions got me 65k exp/hr. I'm sure you could reach 70k+/hr with super att/str and better items. Quest requirement keeps pures and alot of players out as well. Remember to bring jennica's ring because wildy axe hut is too dangerous to afk, salve doesnt work and they dont have as good drops. Tip: Bring d hide armour for when you have to run outside to get agressiveness again, it's a life saver against revs. Lastly, I'm pretty sure they fixed the bug where you could use jenica's teleport ring while tb'ed, so watch out for that. Have fun with it. ;)

D bows are awful weapons, you can get better exp using bronze arrows with a yew short. To top it of, more come into the game every day, while more people realise that they suck to use. The only thing that's decent about them is the special. Bandos items were never worth their price and still aren't, especially the top when you consider you can just use a fighter torso. Defender > DFS, for most training. None of those are worth their price, unless you are very rich. All items that you can continue obtaining from monsters will always drop over time, they may [bleep]e, but they will always go down. Big changes in prices would probably be related to the PKing update though, bandos isn't exactly pking armor ;)

Thanks everyone, I bought one (they cost nearly nothing, may as well :P ) and the spec is pretty fun to use. Though so far the only non boss monster I find it does better on then dds are waterfiends. I use it anyway for training now though, I love the 50+ hits on slayer tasks :D (flashing piety for the specs)

Since I returned I've noticed an insane ammount of randoms. My first mime took me nearly a year, but I got 3 mime events in my previous gargoyal task, topped of with a camo random and a few other small ones. It really gets annoying, Gargoyals become re-agressive every time and in chaos tunnels that can be a big problem as far as saving food goes. That gargoyal task wasnt unusual either, my gargoyal tasks are plagued with randoms, as well as every other task.

I never got this - Why do people use dragon mace for specs over dds, especially in boss hunting? I've heard people say that the special is more accurate, yet the special description clearly states that the spec sacrifices accuracy. To top it of, you can't poison maces. Anyone have a good idea why?
