How to best use slayer points?

[D Jay99]

I posted earlier and this just kind of an update on my slaying. Currently on my 98th consecutive task and I'm gonna have exactly 1200 slayer points after my 100th task. I already have the Slayer Helmet and I've already spent some of the points on blacklisting, cancelling tasks. I'm not going to buy the two other 300 point abilities cuz using fairy rings, teleports, and other transportation methods ans saving my points is better than crafting slayer rings (which i'm still 7 levels short of) and with my stats (see sig) I just use melee. With my current armor set-up I'm hitting a max of 31 with a whip and honestly I don't think I could stand to range my slayer tasks, it takes too long and it is inefficient use of the slayer helmets +15% attack and strength bonuses.

 

 

 

So after I get my 1200 points, I'm going to click 30 times on the Slayer Dart runes and end up with 30k minds (worth 270k gp) and 7.5k deaths (2mil+) and still have enough points left over to blacklist/cancel some more tasks.

 

What? You max 31 with whip and 88 str while slaying? You should use super strength pots, I max 37 with them, no piety.

Yeah I basically don't use potions on most of my slayer tasks...I don't know why, I guess I like filling my inv with monkfish instead. The +15% boost to attack and strength from the slayer helmet is good enough for me. You get 10 monkfish for the price of one super str potion, the food lasts a bit longer.

 

 

 

Keep in mind I use Chaeldar for my tasks and Duradel for every 10th task. For the majority of Chaeldar's assignments using a super str would be a complete waste. Take brine rats for example, they have 50HP and hitting 37 instead of 31 is basically pointless. I can understand using a super set against something like Dark Beasts though, it would be stupid to slay Dark Beasts without potions.

use sumona, she gives better tasks, and super pots with slayer mask is reallllly good since htey stack even higher. i also like using piety with this for really good damage output
