If you ever in your RS career want to go to GWD you will NEED 70 prayer. Firstly teams usually will NOT accept someone without 70 prayer as the possibility of death is always around in GWD and if you can't bless a teammates grave then he only has 5 minutes (MAX) to get the 40 kill count again and get back in there, which is impossible. Like Vulxai says NEVER bury d-bones you get from killing dragons. You may think you are making more money by just keeping the hides to resell for bones, but even then it doesn't balance out. D bones are back under 2k, I suggest you hop on the gravy train while its rolling. Kill green dragons, save the bones sell the hides for more bones. Get half the bones you'd need for 70 prayer and then use the money you have made from selling the hides to buy the last half of the bones. When you get 70 prayer, a bunch of new money making and combat opportunities open up for you so you can enjoy the game even more.

I did them from 63-80 (not all in one sitting I did 63-78 in one sitting and then took a break from hunter then went back and got 80).. The profit made easily makes up for the time spend. I would say you only spend about 4-6 hours longer at chins as apposed to red sallys (which is what most people do till 80). From 63-80 is 1,617,469 exp. That's 6,103 chins. At current market price (Nov. 08 = 651) that equals 3.9m (3,973,053 to be exact) Can you make more than 3.9m in 4-6 hours is the question you have to ask yourself now. If YES, then go with the red sallys until 80. If NO, then go with the chins at 63. Hope I was of some assistance with that question.

I would say that at least 90+ SOMETHING (att, str or def, probably att or def being the best one) would give you a distinct advantage. I was killing them rather easily with 99 def, 94 att and 80 str. But then again I was on a slayer task. I'd go for at least 85 in all before going. I think that is the bare minimum for being able to kill them effectively.

I personally used guthans to heal on the crypt rats and it was an cheaper experience for me with not much of a difference in the time it took me to finish my slayer tasks compared to the dusties in the Smokey Well.(Yes I know you are not doing slayer but it just a comparison on the speed) Right now I am finding that with 99 defence and a sgs I can camp there without a need for guthans.. My specs usually heal me enough to last to the next set of specing without going under 65 hp (I am currently 95 hp) so I never lose more than 30 hp before my spec bar is back to full.

I found mith plates to be very fast exp and I wasn't trying to actually train smithing, so I would assume to someone who would be powersmithing then that's a very fast way to get levels. It will cost you some pocket though. I dunno if Addy kites would be faster or worth it for that matter. (Cost per exp wise) I don't have the calcs nor the time to make them but I would believe Mith Plates followed by Addy Plates (when possible) for maximized exp. Then again I am only 72 smithing. Hope I was able to help at least a little bit though.

Heres a couple of guides you should give a look see: This one doesn't use Pyramid Plunder until 81. This one uses Pyramid Plunder right away.

I believe I did Ardy Cake stall and Varrok Tea stalls up until 38, then I did master farmer till high 40's or in your case 53. I think that would be pretty fast.

Cooking.. do trout, if they sell cooked you can make a profit but I doubt they sell. I believe lobs are a 40-60gp loss per lob cooked. I haven't done the numbers, nor do I feel like it at this time, but that could work. Fletching should make you money, if not then you should take minimal loss. If you do hunter or thieving you will spend next to nothing. Thieving your money will go toward food and anti poison pots (if you do Pyramid Plunder). If you go with hunter then you should spend nothing except the cost of supplies like box traps and nets/ropes. Anything for traps. (Depending on your current level)

Quick question really, can you bring a T-bird into Pyramid plunder? it would decrease my cost on Sup Energies and make me happy if I could.

Snaps all the way, there is no comparison.

The only time I don't use my Void is in GWD. On metal tasks I find I get kills faster with Void than black d'hide. I dont own, nor will I own, arma so I can't really give an opinion on that. I don't know if that helps but its just my experience.

Go to the slayer master in Burthorpe. He changes tasks to "give you something a little less challenging". Burthorpe is north of Taverly. This is where the Rogues den, Heros Guild, Games room and Warriors guild are located. (Just a few landmarks if you didn't know where it was)

Ape Atoll until you hit 90. At 90 Dorgesh-Kaan is a better exp/hour than Ape Atoll.. As for the original question I would most definitely go with Agility as it is the only member skill that carries over to F2P.

I stay under the belief that using the best slayer master you can benefits you the most. I have been using Duradel since I was able to and never have I been disappointed. Of course the amount of metal task I get can be a bit undesirable but that's what the points are for. Cancel tasks I like to do but just don't feel like doing. So I would say go with Sumona. All her tasks are doable and actually not that bad. Now when you get Kurasks 3 times in a row you may want to change masters but remember slayer tasks are random so just stick with it.

Void melee is mainly useful at waterfiends for charm hoarding. However I find it to not be as good as Karils with lower levels and without a Sgs and Bunyip. Even if you just use the Sgs to restore prayer points and use a SS for faster hits, Void is better. As for meme saying you can get it in 4 hours.. that is actually one of the most ridiculous things I have seen in awhile.. I played on the 100+ boat, with a good clan, and a 50 point head start and it took me 8 hours. Simply put you need 850 total points for the complete set, there is no way you can get 200 points an hour. If that were possible everyone would be training at PC and not complain that its worse than the old PC. Just saying. So is it worth it?? Meh I wouldn't recommend going JUST for void melee, I would say get the range helm first and then later on get the melee helm (or vice-versa in your case) Range void is more useful but if you are planning on collecting crimsons for summoning training or you are planning on grinding away melee levels on lower leveled monsters then Void melee is worth it. If you don't plan on doing any of that then do NOT bother getting void melee. I hope I was able to be of some service.

Its the classic question of money vs. exp. Ask yourself what do you want more? Faster exp or more money? If your answer is exp, go with fly fishing (as I hear it is faster exp than monks) of If your answer is money than go with monks. The price is rising if I am not mistaken so its really beneficial.

I got 99 on experiments ;) . SoS is probably your best bet. Fleshies things like that.

I believe everyone is jumping to conclusions by saying games are suppose to be "fun" and not "Grindfests" (I believe the word was) What you fail to realize is that the people who grind a the game for "status" or bragging rights do that because that is what pertains to fun in their own minds. Though buying five 99's just because you have the money to may not be "fun" to you it may as well be a rip-snorting good time to those that do it. Becoming a billionaire. Though you see it as being a jerk or trying to look "cool" some people consider that constant gain of monetary supply fun. I am not the richest man in runescape, nor am I the one with the highest skill total/exp, but I do enjoy making money and grinding at skills just to do it. And I still complete my goals, most notably to me being 99 defence. I grinded the hell out that goal and it felt damn good when I finished it. Do I still set goals where I need to buy the exp, of course. That's fun to me. Everyone needs to remember that everyone's idea of fun is different from person to person.

Simply put, I was curious as to how I could make a GIF. .. Are there any guides or simple steps?.. Programs needed?.. Any help would be great as the only thing I know how to do with pictures is crop and paste :-# I asked this question 10 days or so ago in the "Ask Questions or Sig Resizing here" sticky, but it was unanswered and people went on answering others' questions and what seemed to be overlooking mine.

The only thing I have blacklisted is Skeletal Wyverns. I don't get Scarabites or Warped anything tasks, but I hear those are popular blacklists. At least Warped birds and torts.

The doorway to the middle room of Fire Giants (in the Waterfall) is a safe spot. You just have to stay on the right side of the doorway, one spot in front of the door. When they become non aggressive then you can just use the table in the middle of the room to safespot them.

A list of losses per item: (Prices listed as of August 20th, 2008) *All prices calced at market value* Nature Rune price: 242gp Green Dhide body (4,534 each): 96gp loss Blue Dhide body (5,443 each): 69gp loss Ruby Bracelet (1,265 each): 112gp loss Emerald Bracelet (779 each): 106gp loss Yew Longbow Strung (658 each): 132gp loss Magic Longbow Strung (1,413 each): 119gp loss I just did some commonly alched items. As you can see green d hide bodies are not as bad as some people think they are. However, they are not considered raw material so the GE limits shall apply to any purchases you may try. Although buying them from another player will nullify the limits.

I never timed myself but it seems as though I can get a load in about 3-6 minutes (at 86 fishing) At 3 minutes a load its 540 monks per hour. (60 minutes / 3 minutes = 20 loads an hour. 20 loads * 27 fish = 540 fish per hour) Tell me if my math is incorrect. At 6 minutes a load its 270 monks per hour. That's far from 1k an hour. Again I never timed myself so I could be completely wrong. I also didn't pay much attention to when the fishing spots disappeared. Skill and chill, I do many other things, but I think my numbers are about right.

Here is some useful knowledge that will help you with the digging part.. Just keep running around the circle of soft soil. When it finally shoots out the Core.. just keep running. The beast will no longer shoot other attacks and the core kind of chases you around. Keep running until you finally are in a position to dig and do so. Stand next to the spot you dug in so the core chases your and lands in the hole. Positioning the soft soil in between you and the core should also help avoid any mishaps. I used ZERO (not a single bite) of food on the second part on my first try and I also did not take a lick of damage. --- As for the third part, after you bless a grave be sure to RUN.. I didn't run and got completely bombarded with attacks. From 95 hp all the way to zero. Yea I died.
