Oh, the popup inventory thing is only in fullscreen mode. or the bigger view, or whatever.

Always wear a wealth when you're soloing.

My personal setup is pretty unorthodox and would probably get you killed...So I'm going to go get the link for the AOW topic. You should never range rex, by the way, it usually doesn't work out too well. EDIT: Here ya go... viewtopic.php?f=103&t=744889

Being hit(whether you take damage or not) keeps the timer from finishing ticking. As soon as the 10 seconds after combat are over you do get logged out, though. So you can already do this, well for 6 hours at least. Or maybe randoms would get ya, do they even have randoms in pvp worlds?

Bit off topic, but where did you get "Borzidan" from :?: I've never heard that, and iw as under the impression that they were called the Arzinian Mines.

How far off from 83 Slayer are you? if it's not too much, camping at mages could work. Um for the first few thousands...mining/woodcutting maybe? You could do SC for thetools so that you don't have to buy any...

EDITed for idiocy.

Does the amount of xp that you can get depend on the type of metal that you use? I only needed 25kish for a smithing level, so I got a hammer, and it had 64% left when I was done...so i made it into a pick. I was using a random mix of mith and addy, by the way.

Those are probaly clay hammers made from proto tools that you get as a reward from Stealing Creation, the minigame.

Cannoning scarabites :o There must be some other place with them than the 4 in the swamp... but I personally avoid cannon use so whatever. There's one more possible use then, even though meleeing them one on one in the swamp is pretty simple, guess it's up to each individual to decide.

Oh so she wants to use slayer to get charms? It makes perfect sense that she would want to slow down each kill to get an extra bit of unneeded defense. Bunyips actually have a TIME limit, the number of them that you need is based on the time that it takes you to finish the task, and nothing else. So by using the shield you would, in theory need MORE bunyips. It's also not nice to change statistics to suit your argument, for future referrence. There is no way that you will use more food AND guthans time, unless you're wasting the 7m or whatever guthans costs now that you payed to not have to waste food. Also you definately CAN have "too much" defense, or rather "too little" offense for the sake of "excessive" defense. Balance is key, young one. Personally, I use SGS, bandos, defender, and whatever pet or familiar I feel like having follow me(depending on whether it is multi combat or not, except against nechs, gargs...couple others), because if you manage your specs well you won't even need a bunyip *on most tasks.* I too own the shield, and it's uses inside slayer(which is the topic being posted about, mind you), are limited to wyvern, black dragons, and metal dragons for me (I range miths), and I really haven't noticed that much of a difference in any of them from when I was using an anti-fire shield. That is, other than wyverns of course, but they were blocked until the falador diary. Outside of slayer? The ONLY situation outside of slayer where the DFS is the BEST item to use(no godswords) is ranging at sara(which is a dying art, sadly), killing the kbd(which is probably done more via slayer for people who can afford the shield), and arguably at arma, I personally preferr to use a zamorak book, because the 10 mage defense barely makes a difference, and it's not that hard to either ignore or avoid kilisa's attacks. 5 prayer is always nice though :thumbsup: Tanking? Guthans spear is two handed, and when you don't need the spear, you should be using a godsword. DKs? SGS rules here, but aww dang it's two handed isn't it? If you have any other invalid suggestions, feel free to throw em out there, I'm personally having trouble thinking of any other situations. If you want something that will make your money back, buy a BGS and camp at bandos with some random rsof teams for a week or so. Dragon hides and wyvern bones won't cut it. See above.

BLASPHEMY!!! That is of course, wrong, and should never be mentioned ever again. Please give me an example of a task where a DFs would outperform a rune defender(excluding dragons obviously), and I'll give you several examples of why you are wrong.

Sorry mate, but yes you killed your streak. The counter specifically records the number of consecutive "not burthorpe" tasks...Mazchna gives 1 point.

still using law runes arn't you? Once you have a mounted glory, you never want to use it again, because by that time your house is probably in yanille and its a pain in the aft nether region to recharge the stupid things. *huggles geyser titan* Honestly though, glory to edge and then running under the wall is your best bet.

Move toward the head mystic. Talk to him. Ask to watch the tutorial. Also for future referrence, avoiding excessive use of the shift and caps lock keys generally increases the quality of the replies that you get.

I used to wear desert robes and the quest hood/cape with white knight boots and ice gloves. That looked... *decent*

Walking!!??? Blasphemy! But whatever ok, would it be faster xp to use a lava titan or terrorbird to help with banking? I'm really looking to maximize xp here, by the way. The smithing/mage xp is really just a bonus.

Well I doubt that they give infinite fires : Thanks for the input guys. Has there been any advances in guild banking over the last half decade? I'm guessing that dueling rings could work, but what about getting back? Are skills necklaces the only option, because I've never actually used those :ohnoes:

I'd suggest that you stick with slayer until you get your stats up a bit.

I've been neglecting mining for a LONG time(the last time that I trained it it was 30 over my second highest stat), and now that all this clay equipment has been released, I was thinking of finally getting back to it. However, I've heard that clay picks are inferior to rune, is that true? I'm sure that the double xp would easilycounter the slower rate of mining, but I was going to be superheating mith at the guild, and I'd rather not be slowing down smithing(and magic I suppose). Also, is there a better place to superheat+bank mith bars? Perhaps addy bars would be a decent substitue? My stats are at the bottom.

Large numbers of dhide bodies are easy to sell now via the GE(I doubt that green ones are) so alching them would be throwing away potential profit, and I personally frikken hate alching.

From personal experience(but no thorough testing) I can confidently say that that is false. Try entering a friendly duel with someone and their familiar, and test out the summonign protection rpayer. It is useless. Then try using the appropriate prayer out of the 3 basic ones. They completely shut down familiar attacks. If you have a friend with a steel titan and some spare time, ask them to fire off a few specs on you while you have range protect prayer on. Have fun counting the 0s. I don't think that fire titans damage is actually magic based, though. Not 100% on that... On topic, fire giants would be a good test. They do a bit of damage but not anything significant, and they have sufficiently weak defense for you to test out the titan's fighting. Dust devils would work similarly. They're *passable* fighters and max at 14, by the way.

Not to go out on a tangent but training each skill separately results in faster exp than controlled. (In theory) Everyone, who doesn't train controlled, tends to train like this: Str then Att then Def Since they can hit higher, they will gain att exp faster. Since they can hit higher and more often the will gain faster def exp. In theory. So if you train controlled then you are missing out on the "faster" defence and attack exp since your levels will be the same. Make sense? Again this is all theory, but it makes sense. You will get to 99 defence faster with 99 att and str at 90 defence than you will with 90 attack and str at 90 defence. :-# Seeing someone actually realize that on their own brings a tear to my eye :cry: Maybe soon I won't have to write frikken essays explaining that to people.

For mith I would use the mining guild and superheat then smith+alch or just bank your bars. As a matter of fact, i think i'll go do that :lol: Been neglecting mining for like 6 years...

I'd suggest that you go with blue dhide bodies and morphic needles all the way. They are slightly more expensive to make than green hides, but a LOT cheaper than red or black. They also sell instantly in the GE or at elast did for a while. I usually train via staves, but I wanted to get 79 to 80 for more efficient SCing and I used blue hides. I bought leather at max to get the 50kish xp that i needed and it ended up costing me like 150k and took around 30ish minutes if I remember right...you should probably check those figures, though.
