  1. Care to substantiate that and/or refute my post? Declaring truth by fiat is a great way to look like an asshat :thumbdown:
  2. Respect always steps out of utility's way. Respect only exists to make a person feel good. This is true in real life.
  3. This has to be the most pathetic argument I've ever seen. You would give up 100k an hour to have one person say "thx" to you? If you ran across one person a day (4 hours) who was in this situation, you would be giving up 320k for one "thx". I guarantee you could get many more thanks by just taking that 320k and giving it out to many people. Your argument is so weak I don't even. Also that person could discard your SGS, making you run to the bank to get it back. One more benefit of claws: easier to lend out with junk at higher rates than an SGS.
  4. No, not really. Say you play 5 hours a day, and spend 4 hours of that slaying, and you use combat prayers. SGS will save you 15 prayer points and 300 hp per 5 minutes (full bar, averaging 300 damage per spec). But, you only save 100 hp more than if you used an SGS. This equates to 180 prayer points and 1200 hitpoints per hour. This saves a player 15k in prayer potions and 5k in food. 30k saved per hour. So you play 4 hours a day, so you save 80k per day with the SGS. However the SGS costs 35m more than dragon claws. If we completely disregard the combat benefits of the claws, you lose interest on that 35m. If you can manage 1% a day (VERY easy, you can get 10% in two 4-hour periods), you lose 350k a day by owning an SGS over a dragon claws. So even without considering Dragon claws' use, SGS saves you 80k a day but you forgo 350-3,500k a day. When you add in the fact that every 5 minutes you get to increase two attacks of your Abyssal whip's average hit of about 280 (320 in Kuradal's) to 625 (785 in Kuradal's) with dragon claws, or 690 (930 in Kuradal's) free damage per bar. So every hour you get about 3.3k free damage (4.5k in Kuradal's). If you assume you're getting the BEST tasks for xp (in which Claws make the least difference, to be conservative), you'd be getting about 120k xp outside and about 160k xp inside. Claws will save you about 99 seconds per hour outside and 135 seconds per hour inside. and If you assume 3m/hour (VERY conservative for someone with the requirements to get these rates), you'll save 82.5k worth of time (112k in Kuradal's). On TOP of that, you'll be making about 27k (37k in Kuradal's) in drops per hour. So here's what claws do, per hour: 109.5k, 149k inside Kuradal's. If you slay for 4 hours (as assumed), you'll save and/or earn 438-596k a day. Beats the 80k of SGS or the 350k of 1% interest. Claws are always better than SGS for slaying. The more you play per day, the better claws become over the interest rate, too. tl;dr: Claws are 6-7 times better than SGS. EDIT: If you have 92 prayer, then I can see your argument. Otherwise, without the ability of Soul Split, you're going to either rely on food, healing familiars, or protection prayers without an SGS, which depending on what you're killing can be difficult. I assumed you were going to use food in place of SGS. Otherwise the healing argument is about worthless since flashing soulsplit takes 0 prayer.
  5. No, claws are always better than SGS for anything but Waterfiends and Tormented Demons.
  6. Say you already have a berserker ring. But you still want more strength bonus, what do you do? You can't equip another ring. So you buy bandos. I would never suggest bandos before a berserker. Your argument would have me use a rune scimitar because paying 70k for +22 strength on a dragon scimitar is dumb when 22 strength only costs 500 from a mithril scimitar. It's all about marginal bonuses. And paying 70m for a sword that'll save you 3k in food and prayer every 5 minutes kinda sucks.
  7. You'd have to be out of your mind to do that. SGS sucks for slayer. Claws are much better. The only places that SGS is any good are Waterfiends and Tormented Demons. Keep the bandos and buy claws.

  9. I'd say yes, but your mind seems pretty made up already, so I doubt there's any point trying to convince you.
  10. Could swap your sara sword for a zamorak spear.
  11. There are WAY more santa hats than halloweens.
  12. It would be, except you can't sell items to the TzHaar stores anymore. Camping tokkuls is decent, farming wergs is good too. But you should sell the herbs, not make unf pots. You'd be better off buying their junk with cash than to make unfs.
  13. Basically the best thing you could do with 1 defence and 1 prayer would be steel dragons lol.
  14. PS I'd cannon greens at the level 38? wilderness spot to get them quickest. Bring some gear to deal with a revenant since you'll actually probably run into one that can attack you.
  15. Took me about 300 greens for my first, about 200 blues, 200 reds, 50 blacks. I have only 2 blue eggs and one of each dragon.
  16. Wines, hands down. No fish can compete, and pies don't really get as good til the higher level ones.
  17. How are you any more of a player than a member? Or vice versa. I don't get why F2Pers and P2Pers have constant issues over who are "better players" based 100% on whether they play one version or another. :thumbdown:
  18. People who limit themselves to have a rare cape exemplify why the Runescape community sucks. 0% support.
  19. No, I figured I could get a good rile out of mckinzy by saying that. Most of it is from monster hunting, farming, and a little flipping.
  20. I made it all by 76king. And that item is caviar.
  21. Well I FINALLY got melee legs (took me three days <_<), so here it is: And mostly for my own information, here's my best of bank and full bank picture: TOTAL: 749,332,433 [hide=WARNING: Full bank!][/hide]
  22. there good for multi cb tasks, and yet Id just buy through the GE Ah, when I was that level I was using a hydra.
