The Guide to Speed Training - Skeletons, Yaks & More!

[Lets_3ekout]

AFK'ing means Away From Keyboard training, and is not allowed by JaGex rules, so if your thinking about it, do not do it. If you do so, it is at your own risk. I would reccomend against it.

 

 

 

And thanks :D

 

Oh please, who cares. Nearly every maxed melee player has afk'ed his or her stats at some stage, yet I've never heard of someone getting banned, or even warned, for it. TBH, it's just one of those things Jagex doesn't want to support but could care less about stopping it (Like swiftkit for all those years before Jagex realised people were getting viruses and got a tiny advantage). If you don't AFK train, that's all fine to me but you are depriving yourself of alot of time that you could spend multi-tasking.

 

 

 

Also what I like better than AFKing is "semi" Afking, where you actually stay at the computer but minimize RuneScape and listen for randoms instead, even better use a second monitor for Runescape.

 

 

 

Anyway, some nice spots, I remember training at skeletons for quite awhile before nearly anyone knew about it. However, your setup isn't the best for max xp/hr. Though you might like the buff DFS, rune defender DOES provide more exp per hour with a massive +19 slash. At something like yaks, skeletons and any typical training monster there should be no need at all for the extra defence (TBH, as a personal suggestion, sell the DFS and get a SS). Might want to put that in somewhere, other than that the guide is definitely coming along, good job.

 

 

 

DH'ing at Yaks is pretty nice. I can easily 1hit them.

 

Any monster that you can 1-hit is not a good place to train, your cutting off your max hit.

Why do you use a DFS at monkey guards? You don't need the defence bonus, so a rune defender would be better.

Yet again, another long break but i have returned, and will update the guide either tonight or tomorrow, and if there are any suggestions to any other great speed training areas, just post them.

A rune defender would be better than a dfs at monkey gaurds and yacks because +19 slash is worth -2 strength. Also, void is atleast as good (better in my opinion) as bandos at the aforementioned places.

great guide ... might use it for getting 99 str lol :thumbsup:

[marader0]

can these guys drop the champions challenge scroll :-k ?

 

 

 

Yes :)

 

what are champion challenge scrolls?

[llamster]

Armoured zombies, zombie monkeys, and skeleton gorillas are good spots.

[manitstinks]

A few matters:

 

1. Why are you always wearing ring of wealth? Most of the monsters you mentioned don't ever drop anything besides bones so why have it? Ring of life or Berserker?

 

2. You have no special weapon in the monkey guard section and for other ones, the dagger shouldn't be poisoned because that's 6 hp off and 24 xp off the monster already.

 

3. You can bring a prayer potion if dharoking just in case u get stuck :roll: and ur hp if dharoking should always be 14 or below. Once u get to 15 hp, always let just one monkey hit you because their max hit is 14.

For a speed training guide I'm kinda surprised you didn't mention armoured zombies...at 83 att 81 str and 80 def its about 75 k exp/hr for me, 85 k if I'm potted up, and thats without void.
