slayer gear with 80m buget
Buy 70 prayer. Then start working on 95 prayer. Til you have enough to afford 70-95 you could buy claws I guess. Make sure you're using super potions, cannon, and piety whenever you can.

Runescapes End?
This Tuesday. They'll release some content that will surely cause "everyone" to realize that "runescape is dead".

Waterfiends
This is what I'm talking about. Not some "my opinion is..." or "my experience is..." with bogus conclusions based on feelings and "how it seemed". Sara Sword has been proven to be faster. The zamorakian spear may have 5 more crush, but you should realize that an increase in 5 crush attack when you're 99 attack, potted to 125, using piety, and already hitting 95% of the time anyway is going to have a much smaller increase in kills/h than even an increase in your max hit by 10 lifepoints. EDIT: If you were hitting 90% of the time with a saradomin sword, you'd hit about 90.3% of the time with a zamorakian spear. You would need to average around 1700 damage per hit (absurd) for the increased accuracy of the spear to outweigh the increase of 5 average damage per hit.

Waterfiends
This is wrong. Sara Sword is better than the spear, but the difference is small enough that the spear is perfectly acceptable.

is dragonfire shield still the best shield?
DFS never was the best shield. Rune defender is the best for training melee, unholy book is the best for training ranged, arcane spirit shield is the best for training magic, and divine spirit shield is the best for tanking bosses.

karil's cbow
Rune crossbow is better than karil's crossbow. People just use it because they're too lazy to pick up bolts.

i_r_slayer's advice looks good to me.

Spiritual Mages task
Even though you spend a little bit on prayer potions, you actually make more money at zamorak mages because they are much faster kills. So there's no reason to kill saradomin mages unless you're getting killcount for saradomin GWD. Not only will using a fruitbat slow you down and annoy you, it will actually be more expensive per kill than praying. The mages are very accurate and fruitfall is not very cheap healing (about 42 gp/hitpoints if you only eat papaya) - monkfish are only 40 gp/hitpoints and unicorn scrolls are only 23. If you just pray protect from magic the entire time, you'll use about 45k in prayer potions per hour.

Never use DFS for slayer.

Nature Staff + Law Staff are scams.
Wow. I suggest you do a little research and educate yourself in the basics of statistics and probability. Any random event has a probability that as the sample size grows large, the observed proportion approaches.

Nature Staff + Law Staff are scams.
That's true, but the larger your test sample, the closer you should get to the theoredical value. With people doing 100k+ alches to 99, it's fairly safe to say that you'll save a number at least close enough to 10% that using the 10% in the math makes sense. True plus they say 1/10 not about 1/10 whihc suggests it will do it often enuff to be fairly accurately 1/10. Where as monster drop rates are purely player inventions Any random event has an associated probability with it. Drop rates exist. The nature staff saves money when you superheat. I think the law staff would save money for trollheim/ardougne/watchtower teleport and is about the same with telegrab. But of course not worth my tokens.

3rd Age/Spirit shields/Phats Discussion
They were buyable in the GE for a few weeks, but it is bought out again. Melee is basically worth a purple now.

question about the sgs
Funny that you say the dragon claws are expensive for use as a special weapon, but you paid over twice as much for a weapon for use as special weapon. Claws are better everywhere but waterfiends and DKs.

12-Apr-2010 - Dungeoneering Skill!
Minigames are not intrinsically fun, c.f. Mobilising Armies. For me Dungeoneering is fun in small doses, but after two or three floors it feels as much of a grind as agility.

86-99 Magic
Plank make is almost 50% faster than stunning, so I'd just plank make.

Mining/ smithing rant
Initially it was the best in the game. Mining and smithing are very old and equally outdated skills.
-
Getting Some Levels
This gave me a good laugh, but I actually believe it is possible to "powercut" dragonstones.

i hate revrents!
thats easy! i would rather face the player by far. revs can attack me when im not in a pvp world killing green dragons... :thumbdown: I like how the '08 generation of 'Scapers feel entitled to kill green dragons without distraction. You used to ALWAYS BE AT RISK of attack by PKers while killing green dragons. There were no PvP dedicated worlds.

POLL: In your opinion, should Jagex forbid Price Manipulation/Merchanting Clans?
No - they should fix the root of the problem, the broken grand exchange. That would be like not fixing a bug and then continuing to ban players for abusing that bug.

Mining/ smithing rant
Maybe the designers didn't want these ores to be used for training, but for making equipment for use.
-
Getting Some Levels
Mining - powermining granite with/without BA horn (think it's about the same amount of time, just do whichever you prefer) Fishing - powerfishing at Barbarian, with heavy rod Woodcutting - powercutting teaks or ivies Hunter - Red til black salamanders Crafting - Air battlestaffs or cutting dragonstones (if you have a high income)

KBD Slayer
I've gotten 42 kills in one trip, coulda had more if I had a third yak pouch. But using a lava titan is much smarter.

Green dragons or runecraft?
Varies by player, I find it very annoying. I don't play this game to show off to other people to boost my e-go. ??? If being able to make 1.4m/h after 200 hours of grinding is rewarding, then yeah. 200 hours of training can get you to the point where you can make 3m/h while doing something other than running to an altar.
