You must not do it right. You can make MILLIONS off of it, quite easily. I had a piece of grass on my shoe, and she wiped that off. Yeah. Impressive, eh? That's probably the closest I've ever been to having sex. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le_Fay Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 "Today we have introduced a new skill for members called the Slayer skill! The Slayer skill allows you to kill strange new creatures which would previously have been immune to your attacks. These previously undisturbed creatures have been hoarding treasure for a long time, and as such you may find great rewards from killing them..." And you earn lots of money from it. Most of my money has come from the skill. ^ Blog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blakdragon39 Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 Why are we talking about the point of slayer? Whats the point of firemaking? Quests/lamps don't count... seriously... we can do the quests and light lamps without the need of a fm skill. But it's here to stay, isn't it. I love slayer. It's really fun. Makes combat training have a point in my mind. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cat666 Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 I have a post in the Rants forum about the "degrading" slayer rewards. In short when slayer was released people made millions. Now more people have the levels/items new slayers are not earning as much money. Also when a new slayer item is released, Dragon Boots, for example the older slayers revert back to slayer, and make yet more money. Slayer raises so slowly that by the time a new player has the level to get Dragon Boots themsleves they are cheap due to the mages being camped at by high levelled slayers. Don't get me wrong I'm not against high levelled slayers benifiting from new updates (I'm 88 myself) but there is no real incentive to train slayer anymore. Yes you will profit with the regular drops but it certainly isn't bank breaking stuff. Therefore people are power training elsewhere and then using the GWD for cash. I have 2 solutions. 1. Make it so any future slayer only drop is only available to those on task. 2. Make it so any future slayer only drop is only available via slayer points. Once you've bought the ring and the helm, and stopped 4 tasks there really is nothing else, slayer wise, to spend the points on. Sure you can get 10k XP but thats a pitance for the points used and it's far better buying slayer dart runes. I would rather be able to store up some points and by some Abyssal Armour, or maybe a funky new Battlestaff. Trust the Gene Genie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troacctid Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 I've heard that it's possible to make an average of like 700k/hr off Spiritual Mages. That's about as good as it gets without having 91 runecrafting or getting a hilt drop or something.

I can easily kill 140 an hour. However last task of 154 yielded no boots. So it certainly isn't guaranteed money, and there is actually more chance of a decent drop at GWD to pay for the hours spent.
