I need help with a range guide.

[1c34g3]

Ok...I want to get 70 range on my new acc which I just made today. ( 1 c 3 a g 3 ).

 

Can some give me like a guide to 70 range. Also can u give me a guide to make money since I don't know what to do or how to get money. If u don't mind laying out like wat to kill from what lvl. I would really be greatful. Thank you.

I assume that you are f2p. For some good cheap money making at low levels you could do Rune Mysteries Quest and mine rune essence.

 

For range training: always use the best short bow that you can afford and use bronze or iron arrows.

 

 

 

level 1-25: Kill cows or goblins in Lumbridge or men in Edgeville.

 

 

 

level 25-50: Kill minotaurs in the stronghold of security. They have the bonus of dropping a lot of iron arrows.

 

 

 

level 50-70: Kill moss giants in the Varrock Sewer. Use safe spots. If you want prayer levels, bury big bones.

 

 

 

level 70+: You could either stay at moss giants or safespot lesser demons in the Karamja Volcano. You could also kill Ice Giants in Port Sarim Dungeon. See a guide in the Player Made Guides Forum.

 

 

 

 

 

Also I thought I would ask: are you any kind of pure? Because 1 defense could limit where you could train hypothetically.

[1c34g3]

Well thank you for that guide. How much is rune ess.?

 

 

 

Don't rune mystery quest gives mage exp.? I don't want to train magic just yet.

 

 

 

Also wat lvl of my stat or cb lvl should I become member?

[atronic92]

1) Rune essence is currently 51gp. On August 2 it was 38gp so it probably rose due to the runecrafting guild being in the BTS and then rose even more when it was released. No one knows when or if prices will go back to 38gp, so I'd mine a lot of rune essence now rather than later.

 

 

 

2) I don't think that rune mysteries gives magic experience. Even if it does, it wouldn't matter because it wouldn't raise your combat level unless your magic level is higher than your range level.

 

 

 

In RS combat level is based on the highest of 3 values:

 

1.5 * ranged level

 

1.5 * magic level

 

attack level + strength level

 

 

 

So you could have 50 range, 50 magic, and atk+str=75 all at the same time and your combat level wouldn't be higher than someone with 50 range, 1 magic, 1 attack and 1 strength. That is why people can have pkers with high range and magic, 40 attack to use rune weapons, and high strength. They just need to keep both their range and magic levels under 2/3 of their attack+str.

 

 

 

Ex: 40 atk, 80 str, 1 def, 75 hp, 80 mgc, 80 rng, 1 summ= combat level 58.

 

With just 80 range you would have a combat level of 56, but only because you would probably only have 68 hp. Hp levels are always good, though.

 

 

 

*With all of these possible combat level formulas, defense, prayers, and hitpoints all contribute to your combat level, and also summoning if you are P2P and in a P2P world.

 

 

 

3) At low levels, training in members is about the same speed as training in non-members. It is mostly at higher levels that training in members is faster because of a much wider range of high level monsters. If I were you, I'd get members at 50 range because it is the first level that you can wear members only armor (blue dragon hide) that would speed up your training a little bit.

[1c34g3]

Thank you 4 clearing that up 4 me.

 

is there any other way 4 makin money? A much faster way? Not sayin that the ess. Is slow. Just want my acc with cash and it stat high asap.

[SHIELZZZ69]

With 1 everything you can't really make cash fast. 1 everything, the easiest way is mining pure ess. Heaps of people want 50 runecrafting for new mini-game so there will be no trouble in selling it. Buy your pure sets with your money from ess then use what the first guy said to kill. Make sure you pick up everything. Including the bones if there is a nearby general store.

[1c34g3]

Ok. Im start doing that ess.

 

If any1 don't mind. Can u give me the stats of a hybrid?

[atronic92]

Well I haven't been a low-level in F2P for a long time, so I don't really know any other good ways of making money. If you were P2P you could pick flax, I'm not sure how good that is at making money anymore though.

 

 

 

You could mine rune essence until level 30 mining and then become P2P and mine pure essence. (like shielzzz69 said)

 

 

 

A little tidbit if advice: When you become P2P train your agility up to a decent level, like 40-50 or even higher. It's really helpful, and good if you want to run away from people or chase them down.

[1c34g3]

Ok. Sounds good.

 

Also how does agility help u run after people?

[atronic92]

If you wanted to pk in the low level crater you could use something like:

 

 

 

40 attack

 

75 range, magic, strength

 

1 defense, prayer

 

and whatever hp that would get you.

 

 

 

If that combat level would be too high to get into the crater than

 

40 attack

 

70 range, magic, strength

 

1 defense, prayer

 

and whatever hp that would get you.

 

 

 

Even if you only plan to attack with range and melee, get the same magic as range because a higher magic level helps with defending against magic attacks and if you keep it the same as your range level, it won't inflate your combat level.

 

 

 

*make sure to not have exactly the maximum combat level to get into the low level crater, because you will inevitably gain combat levels while pking. Someone I know went from 70 range to 97 purely by pking and BHing and then he chinned to 99.

 

 

 

*I'm not saying a build like this is effective, because I haven't pked much, but from experience (in the old wildy albeit) with a super low-level pure (40 atk, 60 str) I got 20 defense and no one would stand and fight me because I had mithril armor.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Agility makes your run energy recharge faster, so for example, during a fight your energy level will recharge faster than your opponent's so if they try to run, you will be able to run more than them and they won't be able to get away.

I think maybe a better way for you to get money is. Do the stronghold of security, get your 10k. Then go to port sarim with 86gp, buy 28 eyes of newts then go bank at draynor then get another 86gp ect. Do that untill you got about 3k newts. They cost 3gp each at the shop and sell for 84gp at the Grand Exchange. You could do 2k newts an hour maybe. I havn't tried it though. Good luck with the new pure.

[1c34g3]

Oh so that is what agility is for.

 

On bh. U can hunt any1 u want?

 

Is it p2p or f2p?

How could I forget about that? Eye of newts are a great moneymaker at low levels! If you get the Explorers ring (not sure which level) from the lumbridge achievement diary you could use the cabbage patch teleport to get back and forth even faster.

 

 

 

 

 

BH is F2P. I'm not really sure how it works, but I think that when you enter you are given a bounty, a particular player that you are supposed to attack. If you kill your bounty, you can take their stuff and immediately leave. If you kill someone who is not your bounty I think that you have to wait a couple minutes before you leave, so someone else can kill you and take your stuff and the stuff you pked. (meaning it is more dangerous if you kill someone who is not your bounty).

[1c34g3]

Is that achievement diary p2p or f2p thingy...?

[atronic92]

the lumbridge achievement diary is f2p

[1c34g3]

Ok people that post on this thread thanks a lot. Really thank you. All of u all helped a lot. Now I know wat to do. Thank you.

[atronic92]

You're welcome, glad I could help :).
