Mungo0 Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 Cannoning is definitely the best way to kill them. Go under the lighthouse and cannon them there. Yes... Yes, that's what he said. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poopedapple1 Posted October 4, 2008 Author Share Posted October 4, 2008 Is there anything else i need to bring though? prayer pots etc? good armor? Current Goal: All levels 60+ (Curse you summoning) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayOxide Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 If you can wear barrows then you can melee them not too slow, pretty awesome xp too. But if you cannon you get almost all of them onto you so bring best armour you have in bank, and just monks. They wont kill you. I dont need a siggy no moar.

Zaaps1 Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 Melee in lighthouse with cannon should finish those off in about 15-20 minutes. Take 1k cballs, cannon, 2 doses of super set, familiar, about 4-8 monkfish (probably not needed but depends on defense level), and melee slayer gear. ~It's Super Effective!

RayOxide Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 I kill dagannoths for xp. Melee is easy, they rarely hit and cannoning is too expensive for them anyway -.- Cannon + Dagannoth = LOLnoob. I dont need a siggy no moar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numberkills Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 I disagree ray. For slayer you want to maximize experience gained/hour. Using a cannon while meleeing in the Lighthouse Dungeon is the fastest (or 2nd fastest) slayer experience in the game. 99 Fletching || 288/309 Quest Points || 99 Cooking || 122 Combat || 99 Defence || 2000+ Total ||16/25 80+'s || 99 Firemaking || 99 Woodcutting || 2011 Goals : All skills 80+ | 99 Magic | 99 Farming | 99 Thieving | 99 Hunter | 99 Range "The Unexamined Life is not worth living" - Socrates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayOxide Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 Touche, but I find that slayer should be profitable, and I hate the idea of cannons anyway. To me someone with higher cb and low hp has been cheated out alot. And plus, it's quite epic melee xp, and not too slow either. I dont need a siggy no moar.

cat666 Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 I always get called a noob when I bust out my cannon at Dags. At the end of the day I prefer getting it over with in 20 minutes even if it is costing me 200k. I can make that 200k back 6 times over with a whip drop so it all balances at the end of the day. Plus high slayer XP is not nooby so why should cannoning tasks be? Trust the Gene Genie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You saying that about anything I said? :| Lol yeah it was in response to your comment. Didn't mean it to sound aggressive though :P I can see the arguement from both sides though, if you've been at Dags for ages and suddenly a level 127 comes in with a cannon then it is very annoying. However on the flip side every World is packed with people at Dags in peak time so the level 127 has no option but to crash someone's World. They can afford to cannon, and Jagex made it multi so why shouldn't they? Should they really stop training slayer until a quieter time? Yeah they could not use a cannon, but then the people who don't cannon could cannon. Luckily there is some non-cannonable dags in the Chaos Tunnels. I usually suggest people go there.

RayOxide Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 Im completely fine with cannoning, if someone cannons i just hop or go to the corner where some cannoners dont get the dags. But I think its a waste of great AFKing melee xp :P thats all, nothing against your style or anything. I dont need a siggy no moar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but I don't wanna AFK I want fast slayer XP :P Im sure with your 95 atk you'd like xp for that too :P Not really. Although my current goal is maxed melee I also want slayer levels and range levels. My range at 79 is poor compared to my other combat stats and I've trained most of 65-79 with a cannon on tasks. Therefore although I'm losing melee XP, I'm gaining range XP (which usually I hate) and speeding through slayer XP. I only train melee via slayer and I reckon when I max out melee I still won't have 99 slayer. Trust the Gene Genie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunli Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Im with cat666 here. When I was working against my 99 slayer I always picked the fastest assignements that I could get (after the summona slayer update). Daggs are very fast with cannon. I could do a task of 199 daggs in 10 mins. Any place with a multitude of monster and with multicombat, I wouldnt hesitate to bring a cannon for sure. But of course, that entirely depends on what you are after; fast and efficient exp or as much exp (other than slayerexp) as possible. Then I go with RayOxide's suggestion. - "I am willing to die...I mean try" - Jewelfire (Want to go bossing?) -"we tried, we cried and we died!" - Limparse (What happens to old farts and tarts on monster-hunts) - "...and we found out that there are as many ways to get to warriors guild ...as there are elders trying to get there" - Lysi *snods agely* sorry... *nods sagely* - Brammy -"Equality is being treated the SAME as everyone else; not having special treatment and unique things added in to everything." - Sy_Accursed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dire_Wolf Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Lighthouse - Weak Dagannoths I know when i was down there the place was crowded. There is mostly level 74 dagannoths with around hp level 74 or 75. But there is also a big level 90/92 dagannoth that has 120 HP. The big ones are good, great slayer exp: but as i said it was crowded when i was there. But if you want slayer experience most and the whole place or majority is available then i would bring cannon (never done it myself) and do it for Slayer EXP. They drop green+gold charms. Snapseeds are also dropped. Bad news: If you use cannon other players will get half slayer experience if they do last hit or half of the damage dealt to the dagannoth. So unstable exp if the place is crowded. Chaos Tunnels - Ranger Dagannoths level 88 Hits max 26, but very very rarely. Method used: Prayer potion (Their drops pay for more than your potions). You pray range. You usually get between 8-10 of them waiting for you to kill them (goes fast also). But as i said you pray range so you won't get hit anything. Crowded? no HP level: 85 so u get around 85 slayer exp Drops: Alot alchable items ( you earn tons cash)+other items such as spined boots and gloves. Crimson+Gold charm dropped most, mostly crimson. Very low defence as well. You might use cannon at lighthouse: but with cash you earn at Ranger dagannoths at light house( i got archer helm on last task, 75K) you can pay for prayer potions to allow you to use more prayer bonus such as: more str/att prayer spells to speed up things.
