What is faster range experience

Featured Replies

Im currently training range through slayer, and would like to know what would likely yield more exp.

 

 

 

Im currently in full void range, with snake skin boots and wealth, accumulator, fury. I dont really have an interest in getting an archers ring or ranger boots.

 

 

 

I dont have a zammy book (16m is to much...) and im using range pots and broad bolts with rune crossbow

 

 

 

 

 

For fast tasks i use knives (ie banshees cave crawlers etc)

 

 

 

my question is

 

 

 

Would a MSB with likely broad arrows be faster training then the rune cbow? im also generally range tanking most tasks anyways, with bunyip so the extra hand slot is not very useful, since no zammy book for range bonus, and well all range shields arent very good

 

 

 

Summary

 

 

 

MSB or rune crossbow?

I'd suggest a magic shortbow, unless you are fighting monsters with high defense. In that case, use the crossbow.

 

 

 

...wait, Zamorak books are 16 MILLION?! Damn, I remember buying all my pages for 200k each!

Stick with that MSB, that thing is so useful. I wish f2p had that... :(

 

 

 

But seriously, you'll get quick exp that way. I guess yeah use a cbow if you're going against high level creatures.

A Crossbow is too slow for training in my opinion, msb is your best choice by far. Even has a useful spec.

alright thanks guys. my lack of range knowledge sure is obvious lol

 

 

 

on another note, we all know broad bolts are as strong as addy, accurate as mith

 

 

 

is the same true for broad arrows?

I've heard that they're equivalent to mithril or adamant arrows, so I suppose they have virtually the same comparisons of power and accuracy that broad bolts do. When I used broad arrows, they seemed closer to mithril than adamant in terms of power, but closer to adamant in terms of accuracy. I never reached my adamant max with broad arrows, but I seemed to hit about the same as with adamant.
