Well, I've been doing great with the new slayer master so far, having a great time. I'm incredibly pissed off today though, since jagex just added dagganoths back onto Kuradal's task list, which is one of my least favorite tasks. I was very happy when she didn't assign them, so now I'll have to put up with their [cabbage]ty drops and constantly crowded locations AGAIN. Ugh. [bleep]ing hate daggs. I'd block them if I had any empty spots.

I'd definitely go for nature runes. When I was going 69 to 70 rc, I was getting about 40% double natures. At your level it'll be a bit less, but I'd guess you'll probably get atleast 20-25% doubles. If you get your summoning to 57 for spirit graahks, you can craft them much faster than abyss too.

I use the two tinderbox method, placed like this: [L] = Log [T] = Tinderbox [L] [L] [L] [L] [L] [T] [L] [L] [L] [L] [L] [L] [L] [L] [L] [L] [L] [L] [L] [L] [L] [L] [T] [L] [L] [L] [L] [L] I'm pretty sure that's the best way to have it arranged. It works great for me, anyways ;]

Right now, I think the best you can do is just gather up some oak planks and make whatever you can. You'll have to keep running back and forth to the bank, which is kind of annoying, so bring your best beast of burden to hold extra planks. At 33, the real exp starts to come in by making oak larders. Stand in your kitchen, make one, destroy it, and repeat. It takes 8 planks and gives 480 xp. Bring a stack of noted planks and some cash, and hire the best butler you can (which will be the cook, then you can upgrade to the butler at 40 or demon butler at 50). Your butler can run to the bank for you and unnote planks, meaning you no longer have to make all those trips to the bank and back. The first few butlers are very slow, but as you upgrade they get faster and can carry more items for you. Every so often they ask for you to pay them, so make sure you've got a stack of money with you. You can hire one by going to a house right north of the marketplace in ardy. As you level up and its starts to get more expensive, you might want to consider going to stealing creation and getting hammers for double exp.

I'm really embarrased to admit that this happened to me once. >.< I believe it was on a day I was at home sick with the swine flu. It scared the hell out of me though, I though I was being hacked, or perhaps jagex had banned me or something. Haha.

When I did the same thing a while back, I used silverlight at goblins. I tried cows, but since their defense is higher I found that I hit them a lot less. The stretch between 30 and 40 is the worst. Good luck!

Slayer is killer money right now. With the recent prayer and herblore updates, the prices on herbs, some seeds, and higher level bones have gone way up. I've been casually slaying for the last couple months, and my cash has gone from about 18m to 45m, and that's not counting all the random things I've bought. I'd say I've probably made atleast 35m, and I haven't even really been focusing on it. I just get on a couple days a week. Kingdom management, as previously suggested is also a great idea. Today I checked my kingdom (which is set on 10 herbs, 5 maples) and turned 400k into 1.7m. That's more than quadrupling my money. It's a good deal ;] Another good thing to do periodically is herb farming. Toadflax are a great low-risk moneymaker. Just stop by your patches every hour or two when you get the chance and watch your money pile up.

1. In the dwarven mines under fally. The easiest way to get there is to go down the ladder by the houses on ice mountain (I use a combat bracelet to tele to monastery to get there quickly). As soon as you get down the ladder, there will be a crevice along the western wall, there's a rope there that you can climb down. This takes you to the living rock caverns, where these guys spawn all over the place. 2. 120 for the melee ones, and 140 for the rangers. Occasionally you might also see a level 200. If you do, turn on protect prayer and kill it. It gives a guaranteed 100% drop that includes runite ore and some other things, adding up to about 225k. 3. Melee is probably best. You'll get a ton of exp here either way you choose. 4. Technically they're weak to crush weapons, but it's unnecessary. A whip and rune defender works great. 5. Yes, there are lots of rocks you can trap them behind. The level 140 rangers are harder to safespot, but it is possible. As a side note, if you have 73 mining, be sure to bring a pickaxe. One of the best parts of this task is that you can mine their bodies afterwards for living minerals. You get about 10-15 minerals from each one, and they sell for around 300 each. It usually takes about a day sitting in GE to sell, but so far I've made about 700-800k per task just from mining the living minerals from them.

Saradomin sword is probably your best strength training weapon these days. It's basically the same str bonus as a whip, but two-handed and with an agressive option.

I averaged around 80k, but could get 90k+ if I paid close attention. Spirit larupia or polar bear helps a lot if you can use it.

I must be pretty lucky, as my drop rate so far has been about 1 in 75. I don't know if the drop rate differs per monster, but to me so far I've gotten more from greaters than any other monster, and they seem to be rare from hellhounds. Of course, that could just be random, but it's possible that each monster has a different rate of dropping them.

Nope, it didn't happen. It would be really cool if they did, though!

It's a bad time to train herblore. With the new extreme potions that came out a few weeks ago, a ton of people are training it and the prices of herbs have skyrocketed. Unfortunately I'm not sure if you can even get 90 herb right now with 120m, unless maybe you do it the long way by making tar.

Really the best thing you can do is get your levels up. At about 70 agility and theif you should be able to make it to the end more often than not.

I got a couple of levels today- 89 defense and strength. Didn't really do any other interesting things, other than that I made a cool new siggy ;] Herb farming is getting to be really annoying, I never feel like dumping all my gear in the bank so I can run around to all those patches. I haven't been doing it lately. Maybe I will once I finish slayer but until then I think I'lm just gonna skip it. Well, perhaps I'll just do it once per day, since I can use the ardy cape tele once a day. Then I can directly teleport to all my patches, which is a lot easier. I think I'm going to buy 10 palm seeds and 10 yew seeds. It'll only be like 1.8m and I can get my farming goal in like 3 days or something. Then I really only have to worry about herb farming for the sake of getting herbs, not exp. Cause let's face it- farming exp from herbs is slowwwwwww. I keep 'forgetting' to do penguins. Or maybe my laziness has got the best of me. Eh. I'll do it tomorrow. (maybe.) I'm going to work on this a little bit more tonight, probably finish my current task- Living Rock Creatures -and maybe do a couple more tasks. Depends what I have time for. Living rocks are great though, I love the exp. I also love the fact that all the drops are noted and/or stackable, so I can do a full trip of ~200 without banking. And maybe they'll be pretty good money, too, once all the hype dies down and the market is no longer flooded with living minerals. But I digress.

Not really. I hit high and often with a whip + defender. If you have a godsword or something, use it, but otherwise whip does just fine.

What is your username? Your link doesn't work.

They're very easy and rarely hit. They are all over the cavern so you should be surrounded by spawns no matter where you stand at. For a task of about 200, I bring 4 extra bunyip pouches, a summoning potion (4), 2 super attack pots, 2 super strength pots, a pickaxe, and an EE. I wear normal melee armor, preferably with strength > defense, and have a bunyip summoned. After they die you can mine them for a little bit of mining exp (25 exp) and living minerals, but you need 73 mining to do it. All of the drops are either noted or stackable, so you won't need to bank during the task at all. Bunyip should easily keep up with the healing, but it's good to have the EE as a backup just in case they get a few lucky hits in (I've only needed it once in two tasks of about 190). Good luck!

2. I'm pretty sure all fairy rings are far from altars, unfortunately. If I'm wrong, someone can correct me, but I glanced over the fairy ring map and I don't think any of those are near altars. 3. I'd definitely wait atleast another week to see what happens to d bones. They're already down to about 4k mid and seem to be dropping fast. Although I'd say getting 88 summoning first is a better idea.

If you have a gilded altar in your house (or, alternately, you can use one in someone else's house), and you use the bones on it, you get 350% of the exp. It's just a little bit less than ectofuntus, but the speed more than makes up for it. You can get insane exp rates there with dragon bones. I'm not sure exactly what it is, but it's somewhere in the range of 300k exp an hour. It's a pretty easy thing to do. If it's in your house, your inventory should look like this: 1 tinderbox 2 marrentil herbs Stack of house teletabs (I don't know if these existed when you last played. Basically, it's teleport runes condensed into a one-space, one-click teleport. They're stackable.) Fill the rest of your inventory with your choice of bones. If you train up summoning a little bit, it makes a huge difference if you bring a beast of burden to hold extra bones for you, letting you do more per inventory. Method: 1. Teletab to house. 2. Put a marrentil in each burner next to the altar, then light them. 3. Use a bone on the altar. A "use-x" menu will pop up. 4. If the house has a glory amulet mounted on the wall nearby (and it should, especially if you're using someone elses house), use it to teleport to edge and bank there. 5. Repeat, get epic experience. However, I recommend waiting atleast a couple weeks if you plan to buy your bones. There was recently a huge prayer update, so prices shot up to over 5k per dragon bone. It looks like they're starting to crash (down to 4k at the moment) so it'd be worth your time to wait a little bit before buying.

I haven't had time to actually try out the new tasks, but I saw it was in the whirlpool so it's worth noting that you can use games necklaces to get there pretty fast aswell (might be useful to those who haven't completed fairy tales p2/bought slayer rings/have ferocious rings). I don't know much more though :P It's also fast if you just use lunar magics and contact npc to get assignments from her. That's what I'm doing, so I've got a stack of teletabs for everything else. The only thing I really miss is high alch, but if I ever want to switch, I've got some astral tabs to change spellbooks quickly. So far it's working out really well ;D

I'm really loving the new slayer master. I did 4 or 5 of her tasks today, got 90 hitpoints and 79 slayer, several ferocious rings, and plenty of nice drops. Also, I'm almost to 89 strength and defense (50k and 10k away, respectively) so I'll probably get those tomorrow. Getting close to all 90 melee stats!

Can she assign jad? :blink: I'm sticking with kuradal till max melee because I like convenient new dungeon, although I don't use it for iron or steel dragons due to the new place after the temple at senntisten, and the ferocious ring for the extra boost while slaying. Nah, she doesn't assign jad, but if you kill him while on a tzhaar task you get 25k slayer exp. The thing is, you can't kill him on a normal Tzhaar task as there are tons of monsters you have to fight before actually fighting jad. The only way to be able to kill jad while on task is to take Kuradal's offer on getting the chance to kill jad. She then bumps the number up to 280 creatures Ah, I didn't know that, since I haven't gotten a TzHaar task yet. Thanks for clarifying ;]

When I got 99 cook, I did monks from 85-94, then sharks to 99. At the time, it was a pretty inexpensive method. Prices fluctuate a lot though, so I recommend checking out prices before you choose what method you're going to take. With gaunts, you stop burning sharks at 94, and monkfish at 90. Swordfish are also good exp, you stop burning those at 81. Without checking into costs at all, the fastest way would be: Tuna to 74. Lobsters to 81. Swords to 90. Monks to 94. Sharks to 99. It's up to you to figure out what works best for your budget though. Good luck!
