October 13, 200718 yr Is it best to train on monsters with the Accurate or Rapid style on the crystal bow? I heard somewhere that accurate is better for maximum ranged exp per hour gained, but the general concensus believe rapid on ALL types of ranged weapons is much more beneficial for xp. Thanks in advance.

October 13, 200718 yr Rapid definitely. Accurate doesn't make your damage much better and is a lot slower. Rapid is definitely the way to go.
October 13, 200718 yr I can't confirm one being better than the other, but I always used Accurate with a Crystal bow, I just always have done and probably always will do, I know this is probably no help, but I prefer it to Rapid, unlike any other bow, So, Yeah. I'd like to find out which is actually better too. I would like to get the most difficult 99 in the game to accomplish. which is woodcutting. because I had a drunken night in philadelphia and sprayed a fire extinguiser, evacuated a 7 story hotel on the philly stadium, spent the night in jail.. then got on level 2 prob & have to pay 50 a month because I have a job. It's their way of collecting more money out of me.
October 13, 200718 yr Author I remember vaguely reading somewhere (I think it was in tipit forums) that there is a very little speed difference between the rapid and accurate styles of the crystal bow, and the author suggested accurate was more effective in training..

I actually think that there's quite a difference in speed. You can try it out yourself. I'll always be using rapid though.

Yeah, I think I heard that too, I notice a tiny difference in the speed, but it's not much, I still stick to Accurate.

October 13, 200718 yr I guess Accurate is slower but less GP per shot, Rapid is obviously a little bit faster, but accurate will get you more XP in the end.

October 13, 200718 yr Author I guess Accurate is slower but less GP per shot, Rapid is obviously a little bit faster, but accurate will get you more XP in the end. Oh, my question was supposed to ask the best exp PER HOUR, not the best exp PER BOW. If that wasn't what you meant, i'm sorry.

Yeah, I think I heard that too, I notice a tiny difference in the speed, but it's not much, I still stick to Accurate. I did many experiments on my way to 99 range.. Accurate = 20 shots per minute. Rapid = 25 Shots per minute.
October 13, 200718 yr Yes, go Rapid. When I used my crystal bow, I seemed to be ploughing through the monsters quicker with rapid than accurate. [Tip.It Mod][Retired][Add your Steam name here!]
October 13, 200718 yr I've heard somewhere that the general consensus on all bows is to use Rapid. EXCEPT for the Crystal Bow. I read that the Crystal Bow is the only bow in the game that the higher and more often hits of Accurate outdo the faster Rapid method. It was tested, so I guess go for Accurate.
October 13, 200718 yr Rapid, though I'm not sure. On a normal bow, I use accurate just to save money, though I think Jagex was smart and changed it so that the higher hits of accuarte is better than rapid. Not sure, I can't use one.
October 14, 200718 yr I've always used accurate because it read somewhere it was better than rapid for the crystal. Barrows drops: 27 - 2 SpearsDragon drops: 6
