A few Dust Devil questions...

Featured Replies

Heya. I'm almost 65 Slayer, and I had a few questions about Dusties:

 

 

 

- I have 77 attack, almost 77 Strength, 77 Defense, 78 HP, and Bones to Peaches. Would I be fairly efficient melee'ing them, or would they hit too high on me (or I hit too low)?

 

 

 

- If anybody knows the approximate drop rate of a d chain, that would be great.

 

 

 

- Will I still make a profit even if I don't get a D Chain drop?

 

 

 

- Do you need a facemask to kill them in the Chaos Tunnels?

 

 

 

- Any extra tips anybody has I would apprectiate.

 

 

 

Thanks to everyone that answers :thumbsup:

The d chain drop rate is about 1:15000 so dont kill them expecting one. They have nice general drops though so they do make money. And yeah your defense is high enough to kill efficiently.

I think your stats will be fine if you have decent armour (e.g. wear a rune plate instead of a torso, etc.). Just make sure you pick up the bones, and bring a few pieces of good food with you for emergencies/until you get into the b2p 'cycle'.

 

 

 

Drop rates...Urgh..1/12,500? Something like that. Don't hold out for one. But ESPECIALLY don't go to Dusties JUST for a Dragon Chain. It ain't gonna happen (unless you're extreeeemely lucky.)

 

 

 

Yea, probably. They drop a couple of rune items, and also runes + herbs.

 

 

 

Make sure you fight them in the Chaos Tunnels. Much better charm drops.

I remember doing a task for them in the smokey well at like 85 85 85 and I could kill about 100 a trip with pots/food. With B2p you'll be fine, and they drop kebabs which heal 19. Kill them in the Chaos Tunnels.

Come to #tip-it on Swift IRC, if you're cool

As everyone has said definately kill them in the chaos tunnels.

 

And also you will be fine with b2p there. Take some alchs down with you too.

Alright, thank you everyone. Seems I'll be killing them in the Chaos Tunnels. One more question: do you still need a facemask to kill them in the tunnels? I remember passing through that room before without a facemask and nothing happened, but...
