Equipment Choice
I would get the SGS... Bandos top and bottom look nice but really don't provide a noticeable difference compared to other items for those slots. There is no weapon like a GS they are in a league of their own.

1k+ iron and steels
Well I do believe it is just your luck. Metals seem to not be your "lucky" NPC. I have killed about 800+ Irons and 100+ Steels and I seem to get nothing from Irons and accidentally kill a steel and BAM, a d skirt. So far I have gotten 6 d skirts 4 of which were from Steels. Its all in the luck of the draw. Through many GWD trips I am yet to receive a hilt not to mention about 10 (yea only 10) Armadyl solo's. So I have taken a break from GWD hoping to return to riches. However I have also gotten 4 Cave Horror tasks about 620 horrors in total and gotten 4 black masks (2 in one trip)... They seem to be my lucky NPC. I have heard stories of 800+ and 1k+ killed with no drop of a mask and I have gotten 4 under that amount.

Question about enchanted lyre.
You can receive them as drops as well. I forget from who but I remember killing things to get more than one.

d2h or whip wat is better?
a D2h has nothing on a whip in the training department. As for strength training you would probably get more exp/hour with a dds than a d2h. For Str training get a scimmy or if you have the money a Sara Sword. Other than that stick with the whip.
-
Guthans.
I would of kept it. Guthans is always going up and down dramatically in price. People find new uses for it and bam back up to 10m.. Also, you are all backwards here man. You should buy low and sell high. You are buying high and selling low. Just saying.

void range armor
At 90+ range I say you would barely use anything other than Void. There is no real need for black d'hide unless you need the mage def at 90+ range. I only use black d'hide at Armadyl GWD.

hutner lvling
I did the best Salamander's I could until I was 63. At 63 I did red chins up to my current level (80)
-
Help with Slayer
Only 10k experience.
-
Chinning to 99 range
Its 40-50m from 85-99 so its probably like 35-45m from 90-99.
-
Slayer Helm or Experience? [Answered]
You get 10k slayer exp. I would do the helm first and then use every 400 after that on experience.
-
Practice 99?
Out of the 3 fletching is the way to go. However, I would do a combat 99. My first and only 99 was defence and I cannot tell you how happy I was to finally achieve it.

Guthans or Saradomin sword?
Unless you plan on camping one monster to train strength (meaning no slayer) then a SS is your best bet. If you want to train with slayer then buy the guthans. Its more useful you use less food. As you increase in slayer level though, be warned the amount of "Guthanable" tasks decreases as you will need special equipment to kill certain things. (I haven't used my guthans for about 5 or 6 tasks now) But when I do get to use it, its mighty useful. Just stick with your guthans + D scimmy as a primary str training weapon when not healing. I don't see a Sarasword being used on that many more tasks than guthans, except ones that take head equipment (nosepeg's earmuff's etc etc) Stick with the guthans. Its also more useful in a bunch of other places. Sara, Bandos and Zammy GWD.

Range training
Void increases the exp/hour when chinning at Ape Atoll at 90+ range. So its worth it. Its 50-60k chins from 85-99 range. Chinning Quide: http://www.zybez.net/community/index.php?showtopic=790457

PC and Runite Mining
All exp in-game (PC) is half of what it would be outside PC. Another thing about PC clans you should know is that most of them go by F2P level. Heart Unit is 110+ f2p (108+ to be junior member) the max PC pts per hour is 112. The only way to get more would be if the games started instantly, which they don't so 112 is max. As for rune mining there is no use trying to get a higher level than 85 just go straight to the rune.

Desperate times call for more money.
First off runecrafting need some work.. its a great money making skill.. Secondly, hunter is a money making skill... work your way up to 63 and do some red chin hunting. Working on your combat stats and getting them as close to maxed as you can bear is usually always a great investment because jagex has always released updates that give you new items that cost millions (Like God Wars Dungeon being the most recent) Mining pure essence is good money at the time as well as mining 500g granite in the desert.

High level range advice? 85-90
I did Fire Giants from 73-90 range and bone bolts.. Seems like a decent place for me. I always use my void.. so I would say get it. At 90 range you really don't need the range bonus of D'hide on many NPC's. Aviansies Yaks (with void) Fire Giants Those are some good spots to camp.
-
ZMI
When I was doing ZMI crafting I donot believe I lost anything. In fact I believe I made a slight profit. Of course I was 75+ rcin and I hear at higher lvls you get more higher lvled runes.
-
Firemaking Maples
I can second that. It sounds about right. 1k per hour average.

Quick Agility Question.
I left for about a month and a half. Back now with the intentions of doing some agility training I am curious at to whether Ape Atoll is still the best at 70+ or if they introduced a new course or mini-game that is better. Please Do not suggest any courses that have been around longer than Ape Atoll (i.e. Wildy, Brimhaven etc etc.) So in short. For 70+ agil training, should I use Ape Atoll?
-
quick question about void knight armour
Its worth it at higher range levels and/or on lower def monster. I don't know what that guy above me is talking about when he says the quests are easy as you get it from a minigame (Pest Control) not a quest.
-
yews/magic trees
I did 3k mage logs in Lleyta. Thats the best spot for those if you ask me. Make sure you have a stack of tiny elf crystals though.
-
Aviansie question.
Ranging with prayer is said to gain around 28-30k exp/hour I believe that is the equivalent to Fires. (Taken from Truthscapes guide)
-
Good places to use guthans?
Fire Giants (under waterfall or in Brimhaven Dungeon) Ankous Bandits Daggonaths (under lighthouse) Random Slayer tasks. The main spots I have used and seen people using guthans.
-
Hmm... which familiar?
I would think a Pack Yak will do you more good. The +10 mining bonus really wouldn't affect your speed at mining granite. (unless there is something where a higher mining level means you get more 500g granite) Stick with the pack yak and mine 30 extra 500g granite per trip.

Where do you do troll assignments?
I melee mine at Death Plateau as well.
