Slayer Outfit
No. Zamorak Spear is used on a huge amount of tasks. It is BETTER than the SS because of this reason. It's the best stab weapon in the game and ties with SS for the best crush weapon (outside of PvP weapons). So on all dragon tasks, metal and nonmetal, you will use it. You use it on Aquanites (stab), Gargs (crush), Waterfiends/Icefiends (crush), and a few others. You will find yourself using your ZS pretty often.

fairy ring to (prayer) altar
Ardy cape is free. And you can farm the bush patch. poison ivy FTW! Well farming IS epic :) Still though, House Tab is a much quicker teleport in case of emergency, and it's only about 1k. The cash drop from Bork easily pays. Alternatively, you could cast teleport to house, which is 1 law, 1 air, 1 earth. No more than 400gp, if I'm right.

Slayer Outfit
Cannon + Cannonballs Zammy Spear Onyx Ring (i), if you can get your hands on one AND Zerker Ring (i) Karils Focus + Hex Various Summoning Pouches, elemental titans, bunyip, and best combat familiar are most important. Enhanced Excalibur, if you can get it Hmm...I think that's it. I think Bandos is a waste unless you can easily afford it (eg. buy it without taking about a huge amount from your cashpile), since that money is better spent somewhere else. If you have a torso, it usually can replace Bandos since its high defense usually isn't necessary. In fact, I use my torso on all my melee tasks and I've been fine (even at Mithril Dragons, and I don't use a DFS there because of Super Antifires).

fairy ring to (prayer) altar
For Bork, I prefer to use a House Tab. This way, you can restore your prayer, offer the big bones on your altar for increase xp, and use your portals/glory to get a free teleport to a bank. Plus if you used summoning during the fight, you can restore that too. Plus you can check if a star is coming, repair barrows, etc.

Focus Sight drop rate and Desert Strykewyrm setup
You don't need waterskins, enchanted water tiara, or any of that kind of stuff. Just bring regular gear with EE/SGS and Bunyip (this is overheal you if you ignore desert heat). You can easily survive the desert heat from the common drop of 2 Waterskins (4). If you want to bring 2 Waterskins (4) to start out with, thats fine, but you will never need humidify and you will never need a knife, and you definitely don't want an Enchanted Water Tiara, since you couldn't wear your slayer helm then.

While guthix sleeps help
Should be in the Website Updates and Corrections forum then, although yes, it's a good tip.

Living Rock Creatures
I personally prefer to alternate between two 120 spawns in the north-west. You can then mine the corpses WHILE you are killing the next spawn. This means you do not slow down since most of the time you 1-hit or 2-3-hit it anyway. If worst comes to worst, you will have to attack the 140 nearby to keep up constant combat. But really, you spend no extra time mining the corpses, so it's free profit. Plus it beats running up and down the west side killing 120s as they spawn.

Am I ready to Chin?
Even if they go up, they'll go up proportionate to one another.
-
Am I ready to Chin?
Easy, take a large number of chins, about 500 or so. Use them all, then record the amount of xp you get and the amount of prayer POINTS (not potions) you used. Divide those two numbers by 500. So if you gained 500k xp, you'd get 1k xp/chin (impossible, btw, just an example). If you used 1000 ppoints in that time, you use 2 ppoints/chin (also impossible). Just do that for using the 15% pray and without. So if you use 500 chins per run, both tests take 1k chins.
-
To summon or not to summon?
Yes, there are NO negatives to training summoning, aside from perhaps the cost.
-
Am I ready to Chin?
You need to look into xp per chin and cost per chin. Find numbers for those two, they're much easier to compare and work with.
-
Stealing is moral?
Because you, believe it or not, agree to pay taxes, at least in a democratic society. You vote for representatives who support taxing, therefore you support and agree to pay a tax. If you do not like to pay a tax, then vote for a candidate who does not support taxing.

where to train range in f2p
The SoS offers the BEST combat xp anywhere in f2p. Take a look at my guide for more info, link in sig.

Seercull or Magic shortbow ?
None of the above, knives are the best at bloodvelds.

How to train from 62-71 Fishing
Remember you can use boosts as well. There is a fishing potion I believe.

Question about slayer
Depends on your task. For example, you'd obviously not want to use knives on Mithril Dragons, while Broad Bolts on Dust Devils is wasteful.
-
Help With training
Slayer is really your default answer for melee and perhaps range as well. As for magic, try Lunars spells or Rock Lobsters, which work very well.
-
Am I ready to Chin?
Well tell us the time numbers you calculate and we can figure it out.
-
Range/Mage Slaying?
Range works fairly well, magic just gets too costly too quick.
-
Am I ready to Chin?
But remember in the huge amount of time you save, you can easily make back any extra cost.

[Updated 9 Dec] Reviving Smithing : Divinite
Yeah but on those I ran out of creativity. Thanks for your post! :)

Noted things
Yes, MTK always profits unless you gather teak/mahogany logs. Best arrangement is 10 on herbs and 5 on raw fish.

Andylax38's 9 Lob Bursting/Barraging Guide
We now know ROW means nothing with charm drops (this is just for an update so no one wastes their ring slow anymore). Getting more charms with a RoW is purely in your head.

Taking a Break
Then you're best off taking something that's bound to rise at a steady pace. Don't have any examples, but if the blue line on the GE graph is going steadily up, you can count on that.
