epeeflecher Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 Alright, question. Is cannoning a good way to level range? Also if so what could i cannon? I'm looking to get 80-94 range making a little profit if i can. And how many cannonballs would i need to reach 99 range? blah. And does anyone know how far 20k red chins would get me from 72 range?

Chazimcgee Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 Well 20k chins will probs give you 85-90 range i dont know, maybe more i think. Cannoning isnt very effective way of training money wise but good for lower levels.

mujammil Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 Erm and also spending 20k chins at 72 range isn't a very good idea you should try use em at 85-90 ish because you'd be hitting 0's frequently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nopheo Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 You don't even break even with cannon. Its is an expensive way of training. Its good at low. Good to use bone bolts in the middle and finish off with chimps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CampbellMC Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 Cannon is not good for training range, 99% of people that use a cannon it is for slayer, not for range exp. As for the chins, save them till 90 range when they will actually be worth using. Just to point out how bad a cannon is for training range. I have been told many times that the max hit is around 11.5, this means 23 exp per ball fired. For 12 mill exp (approx level 73-99) you would need 522k cannon balls. At current market price this is 94M. Even if you used these at Dagannoths, which are the best return on your cannon balls, you would still be down about 75-80 Mill. Using Chinchompas from 85-99 would only be 40M, and take about 1/4 of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figure average hit is 18. 36 XP Per Ball. 333k Cannon Balls. 63M it would cost. 99 Crafting :: 39,750th || 99 Attack :: 1,775th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
