Artemis_42 Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 I'm one level off of being able to do this without attracting the guardians, so I can't make much of an opinion of this. However I was able to do this I would much rather use this alternate abyss than the slayer tower. Just be glad that few people choose to kill them this way otherwise you would have to contend with crowds.

agresser Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 Isn't exp 1/3 of normal in the abyss areas? or just the rc one? Maybe that's why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just be glad that few people choose to kill them this way otherwise you would have to contend with crowds.This place is HUGE, I know of several other good spots with 2 monsters that aren't far from the entrance. Plenty of room for people. Isn't exp 1/3 of normal in the abyss areas? or just the rc one? Maybe that's why.They only did that in the Rcing abyss so that people wouldn't try to power train there (ancient magics, chinchompas, etc).

LordSoultar Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 After getting 116 combat the ranger abyss monster's not longer attack you. Abyssal Guardians attack anyone below 119 combat, not 116. The alternate abyss is a great spot, was there killing demons earlier. The only nuisance is waiting the 10 minutes for the auto-agression to end. :?

DRUMINATOR17 Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 Call me crazy but I have terrible luck there with whip drops. I know, I know, it is all random but I get more whips in the tower. :-k I prefer the tower guess I don't like change much. :-s By the time I have a full load of herbs and other goodie drops I had enough of killing them anyhow, unless I am on a task then of course it becomes a pain to bank when your at the tower. Agreed. Ive only had 1 of my 12 there...However...i hardly go there and the reason that i got the one whip in there was becuase for a change i didnt feel like going all the way back to the tower when i knew i had like 20 demons left. I believe now however i do it more for the fact there are people to talk to there camping...(if they respond to a nubber like me though :P ) Anyways...runescape is an unlogical game in many ways shapes and forms. So to ask why someone chooses to kill monsters that drop the same drops yet in a different and less crowded place is pointless. Thats almost as though asking why someone would choose to have dyed hair when its illogical based on the fact that it destroys your hair. (Lol trust me i know some people that like dying there hair too! Poor poor fella) Yes coming from you as your striving for all 99s i can see how you could pose this question to others...but the fact of the matter is, is that many runescapers cant and or wont want to, or will just never reach all 99 skills. So the few extra minutes...if that...to get to slayer tower and the well known "legendary 85 slayer spot" isnt really that big of a difference to them. EDIT: And last but not least i almost forgot this tid bit of information that holds true for me too I have worse luck there and the slayer tower is much brighter and i dont like to train in darker places hurts my eyes lol.

Matok Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 Some of the people find it hard the break their habbits. Some i guess too lazy to find the Dramen/Lunar staff in the back of their bank... And some preffer doing it with more people around. I,like you, preffer the ALR where i can get real intimacy with these lovely creatures And BTW If you are 116+ combat or 85 slayer.... Shouldn't there be an and there? :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

liljjp Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 when i went there a while ago to collect pouches i wondered the same thing.. seemed smarter to me to go there instead of the tower... when i hit 85 slayer/116 combat i will def. go there 8-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

napasaran Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 I use ALR plane all the time when im on task or hunting for whips. Btw im 116 combat and guardians still attack me, so I stay near the ring with only one demon respawn and thats enough cause they do respawn really fast.

Autist Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 The only reason: Haven't done the quest. No intentions doing it too, I assume the quest would just freak me out, as everyone says, it's a stupid quest. AND I hate quests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larsie538 Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 im doing my abyss task in here as we speak. yes i use the tower by times, because i feel confortable with more spawns. also like to laugh at all those campers not getting whips \ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoffmanbmxx Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 One of my friends just ask me what i was doing and i said i was killing abbys at alr plane and he was like "your flying?!?!???", and i was like "no A L R plane at fairy ring, noob". it was pretty funny 120+ combat 1800+ total | level 76 rscwhip drops: 31abyssal heads: 1dark bows: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berrakus Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 I wish they stopped being aggressive at 116 combat (*points to sig*). Another good thing about the Ring area is that there are not nearly as many whip beggars around. Usually the only people who come in there are the ones who just got RC PKed and they need to get their pouches back. Although I did run into one moron there. He came up and started fighting one of the demons and said that he was going to "help me". I tried telling him that this was a not a multi-combat area and that he was not going to do any damage to the demon. But he he just stayed there hacking away and hitting all 0's. That was the only time that I wished the demon's max hit was higher than 8 :twisted: Dragon Drops - 10 Meds, 9 Legs, 5 Skirts, 2 Left HalfPM me to have any potions made or crafting done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myweponsg00d Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 i would guess the excessive use of red keeps ppl away Yeah, the abyss hurts my eyes...plus, when I do tasks (which is the only time I kill abbys anymore) I like to use lunars. So, if I finish abbys, I do the NPC spell and then I could possibly get another monster in the tower and not have to go anywhere. Need assistance in any of these skills?

wakka102 Posted March 29, 2007 Author Share Posted March 29, 2007 sorry, the actual level is 119 combat, I thought they were lower level :oops:. I'll edit the topic. Thanks for all the feedback! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
