  1. Same : fury > prayer (80 then 95) > herblore fury : because of its bonuses for combat Prayer : because of its benefits during combat herblore : because of the amazing power you get with high level potions. Why ?: because when achieved high prayer / herblore you get the money spent back very fast and even more.
  2. Yes, killed healers are back after a while. Drink an OVL before the end of the last 360 - attack healers only once to make them attack you back (and stop healing Jad) + tank them (125 def = ftw) and only focus on Jad prayer switching. Seriously, i did it and failed at first attemp because i missclicked prayer and saw it a bit late. Second attemps was a walk in the park, even for that Jad-Noob-Fighter i have ever been. But now i have this cape thanks to it.
  3. Since i also get what sseli have now i do consider it the same way... and so i do. What lower levels cannot understand is the power that higher level do put in fights. I mean : high power armour / weapon, high power health restore and very high power potions All this power is for once only thing : make some sure kills as fast as possible to enhance the drop rate and then the 'luck'. to be compared at bandos : old previous torag + bird + bandos set with normal prayer + super set = 10-15 kills new chaotic weaps + yack/titan + OVLs + new prayer = 100+ kills There is no comparison and that's a reason you want a suitable world for this power. I also don't go for a fight with same power players since we would both loose some power for unknown result...
  4. I'm finishing that awesome skill at the moment (arround 150k xp left). I banked and farmed every seed i could gather along my slayer carrer. Of course i kept only higher ones. For a long time i turned miscellania on mapples for at least 8 workers. i did toadflax + limps almost all the way when i didn't have my own seeds + miscellania trees i gathered. herbs and limps i got in extra stock (those i had left after i got the nests) were sold at ge for more seeds and so on. I kept all my "high" (fruit)tree seeds for the last level to speed it up on the ending : that was a very right decision. 1.2m xp in very few time at no cost is ok. That way i finished herblore two days before (thanks boss hunting cash) and i'll end farm in the next 48h. All in all farm didn't cost me a penny. It even brought me cash. Since my herblore is done, farm is gonna be a strong cash maker for me with very little effort and play time. conclusion : i took the very long way to farm but with no cost. now i'll use it for a comfort cash maker. Edit : Woot, today i'll hit 99 farm. I throwed my magic seeds and many other tree ones in GE for a nice 16M and a nice bank clearage.
  5. ty All for the awesome solution. letter-number/color is very usefull !
  6. Superglassmake is +30% average and that makes the profit. i jumped over the dragon leathers with gold jewels i mined then alched and .... bow string i later used for my own fletching. Have a look at miscelania quest and use for dirt cheap raw materials.
  7. Just finished it a few times ago and i join Paw_Claw's point ! Variety, not that repetitive, way to max every combat skills along decent cash. And never forget the charms. You start a slayer career in the late 90s or low 100 cmb, and you end it at a mere 138. I was a peacefull skiller and i started slayer and got the feelings for fighting NPCs. After came the following step witch is teaming at bosses. Now i'm done with that skill, i'm in a sort of wealth and can go everywhere and participate to avery possible Boss trips. And slayer is a long term skill you cannot plan for a few weeks (unless you totally blow your bank). Slayer also allow you to gather a ton of goods for other skills (farming, herblore, magic... and of course charms) That is all the reason that skill is weldone.
  8. Seriously, extreme pure sets + 4-5 unicorns are completly enough and don't add the -500 lp and are way cheaper. some alch are good. Consider rapier on stab average as good as AGS + flail. Of course, in case of competition a spec weapon is better.
  9. As you've read there are many situations. - gems + some alch + chisel = ftw (go up to arrow tips if you want to stay on the place)... they'll be awesome usefull in the long term. - granite = timed ftw (i'd go there up to 80) - LRC on crowded worlds = at least you bank something priceless for the related skill (smithing gold ore + goldsmith gaunlet is ftw) - monastery iron + cw = ftw too since you fast bank the ores (you can superheat steel bars on the go too) whatever your choice : consider the dragon pikaxe as a small plus on the long term and of course the best Varock armour you can get.
  10. imho you should check (Search Icon) your bank again since it's right, it's the professor in observatory who gives it back. nb : you can have only one unique chart. other items like sextant / spade / watch are craftable in many occurrences, but the chart is a no ! Too bad, it would have been usefull as a bank place holder for clue-ers. Turoth are awesome (best) lvl 3 clue dropers and can be now tanked with leaf-bladed sword + shield (thanks Erichermit)
  11. Ok, you got informed clan chat mechanism isn't the node of a player clan. Though it's very usefull. It's an ingame hability that also can be used with other player for group activities (like boss hunting, to manage how the drops are split). Clan chant is also a nice ingame tool for clans to share ingame message to all member in the same time. since it's only typo, it's not very fast. That's a reason voice tools are also good to have for fast organisation. Those tools are not available in game. Same for clan communication. IRC is a nice clan chat alternative that is great to use along runescript bot. And finally, for web communication (forum and other support), your clan will have to find it's own host. So : managing a clan is a lot more than only a wish to build a player group. it require to learn many techniques to make it communicate with ease. it requires also some strong and clear rules so that everybody will go the same way. and finally it requires a real project that will require a lot of time to make it work... it's all up to you of course.
  12. if you plan to to for 99 slayer, claws are a tool you'll love to have. I just ended that skill and used claws in my last two levels Why are they awesome ? Simply because nowadays, you don't need spec weapon to heal all the time with either bunyip or unicorn. So instead of wasting spec, you can have 'instant kill' a few times in each tasks. That is for the 'go'. Now though, if you have to clear your cash to get them i'd say don't ! But there are two player schools : 1- those who clear their bank to get an item and rush to get some wealth back. If everything goes well, they are the fastest. 2- those how keep some wealth over the items they buy. They are slower but can afford some errors. I am in the seconds so i'd say : don't clear your bank for claws. i can be simply too early. When i mentionned 'instant kill' i did it right with higher levels though (turmoil + super pure set + claws spec = 1hit KO on gargoyle/greater deamon and surch, and very fast kill on higher ones). Since claws are 50% spec, you get 'instant kills' every 7-10 kills witch are worth it on the long term (nice time spared).
  13. That part suck imho. last time i went there, i soloed a 'top' level to go and learn that skill by myself and without the rush of a team. i'm still lvl 9 but i wanted to undeerstand some mecanic of it. i cleared all the possible areas and couldn't make a decent armour for the boss (the one with the cadavre). ok, i still managed the fight and lost very very near it.... after a good 25 mins of playing. I exited and got 0 xp : ok but that is a pure pain. I just wondered to play a few areas to get the prestige thing and got gabbages... I know I'll do it until i'll get it but so much time for 0 xp is lame !
  14. 1- i never used overload for slayer, but i did with turmoil/soul split. 2- High prayer is constant avialable with no extra cost, overload ability comes now at high use cost. that makes prayer a first step to go and use to get second one. 3- overloads are ok for some boss hunting and not all. Atm, since whole my team didn't get it all, i'm stuck either with forums or no overload bosses... or solo. All in all, that herby is done but not that 'hyper' important. overload uses : corp, gwd solo. prayer use : all !
  15. That is a reason i ever play in 'bob' outfit (the one you get when you register your account). This is the main way to stay anonymous everywhere. I experimented it many times. once i wield any part of a good armour/weapon i get almost imediatly asked for a lend. When not, i could skill anonymously for hours in GE while friends where begged. I generally play wide opened... and i also don't tolerate unpolite persons. That situation drives me to mostly being silent. I temporally use my black list some times for the most irritating people. After a while i simply clean that list. When on urge (skilling competition or so) i switch to friends or even off not to get disturbed and not to get myselft attracted in chat. The main problem is that low level players can't play the same way higher does... but they want to. They simply should consider they grow in steps and can afford them different items/activites at each steps. I growed that way and now can do runescape's best
  16. Prices are going up ok ! But i'd join Qeltar view on the points it's all psychological. Reason ? Simply on ending '09 i planned to got for few 99s like slay, agil and craft but omg i didn't expect prayer + 96 sum + 96 herby witch have been awesome cash burned i didn't have. I couldn't imagine i could do 88-99 pray with the price of the bones unless i found a way to pay for it. In fact i didn't even thought for long : payed whatever the price was ! There are many money making ways adapted to each levels now and best skilling technics are available to everyone... So the game is simply rolling ! In fact now : the more you go, the more you can make... unless you act wrong !
  17. Dungeoneering made smithing a 'must have' skill at some level people are getting now... and mithril is a way to go.
  18. I finally got there after a long time so that it's not populated and there is almost no more competition. My goal is to get both hancanon and d pick. i came with Setup Weapon - whip + claws for spec Shield - DFS Helmet - Helm of Neitiznot Cape - Soul war cape Amulet - Fury Plate - Bandos Legs - Bandos Gloves - Barrows Boots - Dragon Ring - Wealth I brougth a licorn + prayer potion + pure set I was doing good with no prayer until i got canonned at high speed high hits (combo ?) down to almost die ! So take care !!! I healed back slowly with range prayer on and kept it most of the time. I'd say to keep a healing non agressive familiar (Unicorn) to tank black dwaves who hits sometimes. I still need to understand the unagressive limits and to tryout the Dwogres too after agressive is stopped.
  19. Yes it does but you have to stay on only 1 way from the entrance (right or left) so that you don't get for another 15-20 mins of agressivness That is also a reason you attack only 1 of the two entrance wyverns and wait it to be well spotted. else, it will come upon you and you wont be safe. I'd say, once spoted, you have a 8x8 or 10x10 square you are safe in (including the 1st square outside the room). only 1 pace out of the square makes you loose safe. Don't forget to use long range unless you perfectly know what you do and where are the limits. Rs gods bless Erichermit and his awesome guide.
  20. You are sooooo right. Whip + rune def of course (or Sara sword for str training batch). Unless you can afford bunyip + full bandos i'd say go for a guthan asap. I spared each coins until i could do and it spared me nice cash for non decaying. For combat go through slayer for all 90+ then take each one up to 99. Range everything you can when you have time and armour. quests+skills that open combat areas and related teleports Of course you can go the fastest way (max pot + max bonus prayer) but i'm finishing it right now the normal way and slayer gave me nice cash. On the middle term, think about having 80 then 90 and even 99 prayer to take the most of your tasks Never ever miss anoccasion to gather / farm herbs 1k constant monkfishes and runes stock are required.
  21. Flax2bowstring is a slow and tedious but with at least no loss activity i made in that skill area since i didn't want to compete at dragons in old wild. That is also a nice way to make your fletching even cheaper. Of course i' add gold crafting and some glass things making for day to day trades of sand/seaweeds. Crafting, a skill i'm ending, came along with some other skills : mining/smithing (and crafting my gold), fletching (making my 57k bowstring in one go while i was planing that 99). I used only the dragon leathers i gathered from my slayer activity. Of course you can blow money on it and get it fast.
  22. Me ! Let me grab those 350k xp to be a slayer master too ! (joke) As soon as you can, use the higher master you can aka Kuradael
  23. ranging slayer is a nightmare for me since it's way more slow ad a slayer way of training : BUT you train range !!! That's the topic afterall. I did it on fire giants (chaos tunnel), bloodvelds (normal ones), greaters (wild volcano) and black demons (chaos tunnel), warped tortoises. I also chinned nechryaels. I also did some black dragon (chiken lair) tasks as a ranger but they are very very slow : emerald bolts(e) + broads For all the firsts i useds places with safe spots so i brought my best range bonus i and either used broad bolts of iron kinves/steel darts depending on the monster defence. Of course when i hitted summoning level, geiser titan came in good help for awesome quick kills. My current sets : range void / arma set + full slayer helm Ammo i use : broad bolds - iron knives/steel darts High level darts (p or not) when i have some and javelins i get in drops to lure the monsters.
  24. TD are all about luck and you can't do it to make the 2M an hour they tell about (gear/level). only 2 solutions : - fighting and make a wish on a drop (like playing casino....) - gathering goods : slowly but valid cash incomes. Doing dragons is now very good but can be under competition. So, since herblore is also a skill people are apying for, i'go and either fight for herbds or gathering secondary items. Check them at GE and see price evolution + gathering times at your level to see what is your best options. I think you can also see under summoning secondary items sections some good opportunities. Conclusion : take the skills that rich players pay for and gather the wanted items for rapid sell and nice cash : that's imho (and if i were a desesperate runescapian) the best consistant way to make money.
  25. With surch a high prayer you can melee black demons in Chaos tunnel (unless you can't enter here) for crimsons. Else : giants (moss, fire) are ok charm droppers for mostly gold charms (cheap-low summoning xp)
