If you need defense for tanking or otherwise, the Blessed Spirit Shield is just as good for about 3m. I've bought the DFS a few times in the past, along with Bandos. I concluded with both items that it isn't worth it. Defender + Barrows is cheap, economical, and the best anyone should need.

Wolpertinger is also magic-based. I do not think having mage-boosting gear, for example, would make a difference. I've noticed all my familiars work about the same no matter my armor. Plus many people slay in melee gear while using a Wolpertinger, and still report that the Wolpertinger did a lot.

viewtopic.php?f=30&t=750480&hilit=zerker+necklace The Zerker combo is far better than the d scim, and it is arguably better than the SS. You can also replace the sword with a mace if you need crush, for example at WFS or Gargolyes, instead of the Stab/Slash of the obby sword.

Watering can only help, but it is never necessary. I am 92 farming currently and the last time I watered a plant was when I was level 17, or so, excluding watering seedlings in plant pots. Watering makes the plants grow faster and be stronger against disease, much like compost. Also like compost, you have grow them just fine without watering. I generally do not water plants because it is a waste of time, imo, and the difference isn't very big

I thought Elegant was members?

Thanks :

Yes, but I want to know more about your opinion.

Absolutely terrible way for charms, you'd get under 3 charms per hour, I believe.

Will add, thanks.

I always get my own clay, but if I'm having some trouble and I see someone who is easily getting it, I will ask nicely. Since you are doing Fast SC, 1 clay doesn't make any difference at all. After your first 22 points, it takes a lot more effort to get 1 point. That 1 clay never makes a difference. I'd be happy to give away 1 inventory of clay without feeling like I'm giving away my points. Plus, the faster the games go, the more points you get in the long run. For this reason, if someone asks me, I will do it.

Should change "busker" in the Did You Know... fact to "musician". I had no idea what a busker was until I looked it up, and Musician is the more popular/official term for them in Runescape.

It's not that Void provides no defense. It's defense is roughly 1/2-1/3 of barrows equipment. That's still enough to keep me afloat at many locations. Void has a rep for having trash defense, which is true, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't take it to dangerous locations.

What do you mean by "really slow"? They should sell overnight, if not instantly. Diamond bolts aren't always the best. You need to check out Ruby bolts as well, which are sometimes better. You can also use Mousekeys to enchant the bolt, making it a lot easier/faster

Remember you also get magic xp, which is what makes the spell really worth it. You're paying 300gp for 87 magic xp, meaning 3.4 gp/xp, which is very good considering that it is magic.

Oh wow, that is a typo, should be tread. Whatever, not doing to dig up that Photoshop file and edit that now :?

Bolt enchanting usually beats out high alchemy.

Actually, yes! : Clever ideas are my specialty, lol. Everyone know thats if you equip Fremmy Boots, you can bank with Seer. However, during the Fremminik Trials quest, there is a portion involving Seer. His house is a puzzle and you must solve it. However, he does not allow you to enter if you are equipping any item or have an item in your inventory. If you do, he offers to bank your entire inventory and equipment for free. You can do this as many times as you want as long as you do not complete this portion of the quest. So you can start, but not completely finish the Fremminik Trials quest to mimic the effects of Fremmy Boots, allowing Seer to bank your entire inventory. However, you will most likely want to do this quest in the future, so this is only a temporary method. EDIT: If you have a friend with Lunars, you can have him or her telegroup you to Waterbirth island so you can collect the snape grass. Then you use the Duelling Ring to bank, then have your friend telegroup you to Waterbirth again.

Alching is actually one of the cheaper, but slower ways. The most efficient way to train magic is by Barraging/Bursting Rock Lobsters. It's expensive, but the Hp and summoning xp more than make up for it. Other popular ways include superglass make, string amulet, plankmake, and bolt enchanting.

I'll get on that, thanks

If your saving money by tanning your own leathers, isnt canifis the worst choice as its more expensive then the other tanners in the game? Double the cost, true. But the speed is too good to give up. Plus when I say double the cost it's like 50gp more or something.

"Efficient" and "Fun" aren't symonyms. He wanted the most efficient method, and I am explaining it. I also believe that fun is a priority, but the most efficient method is that, the most efficient method. Even if it isn't fun for some people, you can't change the fact that it is (theortically) the best way to train. Although I would agree, if training some other way is more enjoyable, you should by all means train it that way.

Mine acts like that too, but much less often than what you are describing. For starters I would reboot my computer. I usually put it on stand-by overnight. If you do the same I would say to shut it down once in a while. For some reason it drastically improves the general speed of the computer. Also, I would try to arrage Java so it has high priority on the Processes list (Task Manager). That might be a solution if you find that all Java programs act similarly. Try playing a Funorb game. If that works fine, then it might be just a problem with Runescape on your computer. I think there's a catche or something you might need to look into. I don't really have an tech training myself, but the above is what I do and it usually works out for me fine. If you need more help I would recommend the Tech Forum.

Sc needles aren't really worth using. They don't last nearly long enough to make them worth their while. One of the ways to save a nice bundle of cash while crafting is to tan your own hides, then craft them into dhide bodies while you walk back to the bank. The best place to do this is Canafis since it is 30% shorter distance than the next best tanner at Al-Kharid. It does by pretty quick, but it gets annoying after a while. I don't have any specific numbers for you though, sorry.

I use both my rings on slayer as well. Still, sometimes I strongly recommend you run a Warrior over a Zerker, mith dragon tasks, of example, or Gargolyes. Also, I recommend getting a Dstone ring (i) (Onyx i doesn't seem worth it imo, for only +1 extra over Dstone). You need to use this for when you use Crush or Stab attacks on tasks (such as WFS, Gargolyes if you decide to, and Aquanites). Also, you should use this for the +6/+7 ranged and magic bonus it gives for when you range or mage monsters inside or outside of slayer. It is a lot of points to get, but you're going for 300 rank, so you'll have more than enough. Personally, I had well over 1m points when I got 300. EDIT: As Purepure mentioned, you could run the Archer or Seers rings as well. I don't get them because I rarely mage or range, but if you do a lot of those it's worth considering.

Not sure if you need to know this, but I hear you don't need to use a terrorbird at Sara GWD anymore for run restoration because of the agility update. I'm just mentioning this because some guides on TIF and elsewhere still mention that you need to have a TB to restore energy or you'll die.
