The_Fray Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Well i just started training summoning, I heard that granite crab pouches is a good way to get experience from 16-40.But for that I need about 1.1k gold charms. So what is an efficient way of getting these charms and how long will it take me. I am thinking of bursting at rock crabs but was wondering how much it will cost me and how long will it take. And if bursting is too costly then what other alternatives do I have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilovecardj Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Fire giants are really good for gold charms, as well as hellhounds. But might as well just do slayer, its the best way to get charms in the long run Dragon Drops: 80+ boots, 7 med, 3 skirt, 2 left half, 2 Spear, 2 2hSlayer: 30+ whips, 4 Bows, 1 Mask, 3 Granite Legs, 1 Visage (Wyverns)Notable GWD Splits: Bandos Tassets: 12, Bandos Chest: 11, Bandos Hilt: 2Proud Slayer of 99 Att/Str/Def/HP/Range/Summoning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But might as well just do slayer, its the best way to get charms in the long run You are probably right but right now I really want a bunyip after selling guthans and frankly slayer is quite a slow way of collecting charms. Sure I get occasional good tasks for charms but right now I am simply focusing on charm collecting and slayer is far too slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lacoste Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 If you have 65 slayer try dust devils, for crimsons that is, I get most of my golds from fire giants... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
green9090 Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Try for creatures that drop more crimsons than golds, but still a fair number of golds. That way, when you get high enough to start using crimsons, you'll have a huge stack of them :D Good monsters that fit this description are dust devils, fire giants and cockroaches.

Inuashakent Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 harpie bugs and turoths drop gold/green charms quite commonly. plus theyre quick and easy to kill. in an hour you can get 200-300 gold charms easily. this is from personal experience. Monsters don't drop two types of charms commonly. Rather gold, crimson, green, or all at once. Are you sure about 200-300? That seems highly unlikely...

johnemad1 Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 For Gold charms, try rock crabs and fire giants. For crimson, I would say waterfiends if you don't have money to waste. OR Ice bursting rock lobs which is the fastest way ever to get magic exp+charms.. but costs about 1-1.2m/hour. I would say waterfiends tbh.

sliceopie Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Moss giants aren't bad, depends on your level though, fire giants pretty good too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
green9090 Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 im not exagerating the number, i just get extremely lucky at times. but it rarely works out to that many that often. No, you don't get that many charms in an hour. It is ridiculous to claim 200-300 charms an hour. You'd have trouble getting that many even if every single monster dropped a charm (which they certainly don't, I've tried both). Use a stopwatch when you time.

All_Is_Great Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Ice warriors and giants are also good choices. And you can even browse other sites if you use the ice warriors near the ice queen, as long as you have good defence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oliboli1992 Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 i would say train slayer and collect charms on the way, but if not hellhounds and firegiants are quite good for a lot of gold charms. [spoiler=Sig] I like to think of the Dark Bow like a Rocket Propelled Grenade (RPG) - you get one shot and then you're screwed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fire giants for gold, Kalphites for blue(atleast the 85lvl's drop them pretty much), Waterfiends/Rock lobs/Dust devils for crimson, Bloodvelds drop greens alot.

calum12 Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 at lower levels, I just ToGed Summoning. Easy and free too, save you charms for when you can use them efficiently. Aside from the 256 gold you get to start with (or however many it is) I didn;t make a singkle pouch until 47 summon. Hmmm.... I need a new siggy, get round to doing it later. Probably.
