You used to get 1 ticket per game, but the tickets used to provide you with more xp/ticket. Now you get 1 ticket on the lowest boat, 2 on the medium, and 3 on the highest level boat, I believe. I am unsure of the times, but it generally doesn't take very long on the 100+ boat. Longer on the lower level boats. I'm a 45 defence pure, and the best training methods I used were D-Hally on Fire Giants, Black Mask on slayer tasks, Salve (e) on undead, or power training on mossies/giant spiders. I would suggest trying some of these, as they were quite effective for myself.

It only seems to be worth power-levelling at Pest Control if you are 100+ combat, so you can use the best boat. Otherwise, it seems like a waste of time considering the loss of drops, xp, and the time it takes per game, that of which can't be a definite win. I would suggest Guthans at Bandits, Dharoks at Ape Atoll, Giant Spider Killing, Slayer with a Black Mask, or killing undead with a Salve (e) Amulet for best results. :

If your combat stats are decent, I would suggest killing hill giants, and banking their big bone + limpwurt root drops. The big bones sell around 400-500ea, and the limpwurt roots 700-1000ea. If you can effectively kill them, you are looking at a decent sum of money in a short period of time. :

I'd take a red h'ween mask over a Dragon Full Helm myself. Maybe buy some Bandos armour for the str bonuses, or a Bandos Godsword? I think you shouldn't buy one though. Spending the cash on skills would be a lot more rewarding, and in my opinion, more impressive. :

Either Torags + Whip, or Dharoks in my opinion. If you don't generally need to buy barrows, save your cash for a bit. :

Spend it on rounding your stats to 70s. Start with buying a Dorgeshuun Bow and some bolts bolts (5k at a time), for 70 range. Spend the money slowly and wisely. Remember to save some away for opportune moments.

I prefer the 2nd option, but with lower prayer if it was my choice. Good luck. :

Fire Giants are my favourite by far. Great drops, great xp, low range def, and they only max 11s. It is quite nice when a monster drops lobsters as well. :roll: Hope to see you there.

I maintain a job, Runescape, school, sports, and a social life very well. I feel all that is needed to do this is moderation. Spending too much time on any one thing will deplete your belonging in the others. Moderation is key with anything in life.

I believe the price is around 250-325k for the set. It varies from F2P to P2P though.

I believe Bob's Axes in Lumbridge is a Hachet shop. :roll:

Moss Giants, Fire Giants.

You can come join me at fire giants. Just do the Waterfall quest, and range away. Be sure to bring a rope, and Glarils Amulet. Food, a chisel, tellies, and high alchs are also beneficial to bring. With the Dorgeshuun bow, ranging anything is almost always a profit due to the low cost of the bow/bolts.

Thanks for that Abyssal. I wasn't aware Sara also had 2 specs.. now it seems more useful.

Hey Ronaldo.. been a long time since I saw a post by you, although I never leave Help & Advice, lol. I guess I must have removed you from friends, since its been around a year since I last saw you log in. Anyways, I'll try to help as much as I can with the godswords. First off, you will need to train your attack from 70 to 75 in order to wield a godsword. Secondly, they are quite accurate, but due to their high strength bonus, having attack bonuses is more important. So unless you have 85-90+ attack, I would suggest wearing a glory/fury over a strength amulet. With Pcing I would only consider Bandos or Armadyl acceptable. There isn't a whole lot of sense in freezing monsters at Pest Control, nor is there in having the ability to heal yourself. If the Bandos spec works on the portals, which I am unaware of, I would suggest using it. Weakening the portals defence will definitely shorten games, and help your team overall. However, if it doesn't work on portals, then the Armadyl godsword is definitely the better choice. Unlike all other godswords, the Armadyl godsword allows 2 specs per bar, whereas the other godswords only allow 1 spec. With this in mind, Armadyl is the better choice for Pcing, if the Bandos special does not effect portals. (Message Jagex and ask) For staking, I would suggest Bandos or Armadyl just the same. Bandos is effective versus higher defence players like tanks, barrows pures, and mains. Being able to take their defence down will allow you to use your offensive bonuses to your full advantage. However, if you're staking lower defence players, then the Armadyl godsword is definitely the right choice. With extra strength, and 2 specs to boot, the Armadyl godsword will rip apart any low defence level player (and most higher defence players as well). I am unsure of how effective the Zamorak freezing method is, so I will rule that out as not to mislead you. However, for training, or at castle wars, any of these godswords can be fun and effective. Whether you want to play strategically with the Zamorak and Saradomin godswords, or attack all out with the Bandos and Armadyl godswords, there is no wrong choice for castle wars. Although, with training I would suggest against using a Zamorak godsword (even though it can prove useful). A small recap. Armadyl and Bandos godswords are the most effective all-around. The Armadyl with an extra special attack, and its destructive power, and the Bandos with its stat lowering techniques. Looking at the price tags, I would personally pick a Bandos godsword. The possiblity to resell a Bandos godsword is more likely, as it is cheaper, and more versatile than the Armadyl. Choose wisely, and if you need any more info, just ask. : Also, Master_Smither will probably post soon, so be sure to consider his advice as well. By the way.. what is your defence level? :roll:

To put it simply. You have to complete 'The Lost Tribe' quest if you with to buy the Dorgeshuun Bow from the shop for 2k, and the Bone Bolts from the shop for 4gp each. You must complete 'Death to the Dorgeshuun' quest if you wish to use the Dorgeshuun Bow special attack. Alternatively, you can buy the Dorgeshuun Bow, or Bone Bolts from other players. The only requirement to use the bow being a range level of 28. If you can't find any sellers, definitely check the Official Runescape Forums.

I can't exactly say about computer settings, but I know what worked for me. Try switching the detail in which you play in. It may sound silly, but I used to lag on Low Detail, and switched to High Detail. The lag was gone once I switched, so I suggest you try it just in case. :roll: Good luck.

Rcing - Top Method Hunter - Everyone forgets it.. all these pures want a fast 99 range, the price on chins has been steadily rising. Then there are other combat methods that can be very profitable, provided you can do them effectively. Metal Dragons, Barrows, God Wars.

I was worried about this as well in the past, but the xp is too good for me to pass up. Just simply buy a Dorgeshuun Bow and 5k Bone Bolts at a time. This way even if the bow is nerfed you will only lose a maximum of 20k on the bolts at a time (+2k for the bow). However, if the price is raised then it is something you will have to deal with. If the price is raised, switching to bronze knives would be an ok substitute. This price on them is low, and the xp is fast. I suggest going with a Dorgeshuun Bow for now and using it to it's limits just in case it becomes nerfed.

Every little bit counts. Keep it up. You're nearly all the way. :

I believe it goes by the base level only. I don't think you can pot your way into this one. -.-

Yep, I'll have the 99k waiting for ya. Good luck. :
