Slayer Sucks

[Inuashakent]

By your logic:

 

 

 

* Slayer - What's the point? Armoured zombies are faster xp and money, while camping at Lobster and Waterfiends gives faster charms. Slayer is slower in terms of all 3.

 

 

 

* Smithing, Cooking, Firemaking, Fletching, Crafting, and Herblore - You can buy all the end results from other people.

 

 

 

* Mining, Fishing, Woodcut, Thieving, and Hunter - They make money, but slower than GWD and Runecrafting. (Maybe not Mining Rune ores.)

 

 

 

* Combat, Runecrafting, Agility, Farming, Construction - These are the only truely useful skills. They make money fastest out of all.

 

 

 

So what's the point? Besides Quest requirements, there is truly no point to these skills, yet everyone continues to train them. What drives you to continue to train these "useless" skills? Fun? Total level?

 

 

 

My point is, it's not only Slayer. It's almost every skill in the game.

 

First of all, slayer is the only skill in which training it sacrifices large amounts of XP in another skill, in this case combat; secondly, I created this post to combat the continuous stream of 'train slayer' posts whenever someone asked what the best method to train combat is. That is wrong; if you enjoy slayer, by all means train it, but you will be wasting 100s of millions in lost time by doing so, making slayer one of the most 'expensive' 99s, and a very bad way to train combat.

 

 

 

And it seems to have worked; I haven't seen nearly as many 'train slayer' posts, with over 4,000 views on this thread.

 

But if you take another point of view, the time spent training Thieving could be spent in time training Agility, or another useful skill.

 

 

 

And you're right, there are too many people who believe Slayer is the best in terms of Charms, money, and xp, when it's bad in all 3.

Yes, but slayer is innately connected to combat; your in combat, doing virtually the same thing (smacking a monster upside the head with your whip), but your getting less XP, drops, charms etc. because of it.

[Inuashakent]

Time innately connects everything. :lol:

 

 

 

You're virtually doing the same thing (clicking your mouse) but you get less xp, drops, charms, etc. because of it.

Combat is an extremely good way to train slayer,however.Unless you find another way I'm gonna train slayer through combat.

Point being? Slayer is only trained for fun, as a waste of time; if you want to train combat, look elsewhere.

It's trained for it's cape, for respect. It's trained for variety. Firemaking is also only trained for fun past 94, why have you chosen slayer? The cape which so very few possess, your argument is that its a waste of time, so are all skills by this logic. People also train slayer for the cape.

[wasssup]

you do have a good argument. slayer is basically, in most views, a wasted skill. however, you are missing the point of it, and the point of the game, and that is the simple fact that runescape is supposed to be fun. you may well be able to train more efficiently without slayer, but ask yourself this, is it better to say that you have used three hours of life to gain a few levels on a computer game, or three hours of your life to enjoy yourself. i think everybody knows the answer.

 

 

 

btw:anybody who chooses option 1 will be castrated

Yes, but many prefer the ends to the means - training to high levels means access\improved versions of things like Castle Wars and GWD, which some may prefer to killing monsters endlessly; I'm simply saying you can achieve that high level status faster if you kill armored zombies instead of slayer monsters.

If you do this,skip slayer and leave it at 1, you will be unable to kill some very popular monsters.

Hence why one should train slayer into the 70s, possibly 80s, if they are concerned about total levels\slayer dart. However, there aint a whole lot of good monsters that slayer grants access to.

For total levels, yes. Otherwise, don't bother training it.

You are trying to dispel the fallacy regarding good combat experience through slayer,right?

 

If so, then you should admit that slayer is useful it just isn't very good for combat experience, to me it seems as if you are attacking the skill rather as a whole, instead of just the experience gained.

There are two reasons to train slayer: #1 total levels, where mid 70s would be most efficient for most players, and #2 fun, which you can train to whatever you want.

 

 

 

Combat XP is not one of those reasons.

[Maulmachine]

Until the mid 70s you suggest training it though,right?

 

 

 

I hardly think this qualifies as it being sucky skill. I think you mean its inefficient.

If you care about total levels, which no one but you sees, train it to mid 70s. If you enjoy it, train it. Otherwise, don't touch it with a 10 foot pole.

But if you leave it at 1 you miss out on soooo much stuff, like slayer dart and dust devils. There is a lot of valuable content in slayer, which is why I say it doesn't suck, just is inefficient when you reach higher levels.

Slayer dart: Lower hitting then fire wave, far less XP; fire wave is better unless your 99 mage, in which case COG or salamander is much better. Dust devils = MUCH slower XP\drops then armored zombies.

Salamander = higher max hit, more accurate, cheaper then slayer dart at any level. Dust devils are NOT over 190k in drops per hour, and FAR less XP.

 

 

 

I hate PC too, I did 3,000 games with HU at the old PC, and 1,500 more at the new. But I lost full void to a d clawer, so I have no choice -.-

Until the mid 70s you suggest training it though,right?

 

 

 

I hardly think this qualifies as it being sucky skill. I think you mean its inefficient.

 

Our quote fight is at an end though,we have reached the limit,lol.

 

If you care about total levels, which no one but you sees, train it to mid 70s. If you enjoy it, train it. Otherwise, don't touch it with a 10 foot pole.

 

 

 

[hide=]I enjoy it and plan on getting 90+ eventually. Just a side note.[/hide]

 

But if you leave it at 1 you miss out on soooo much stuff, like slayer dart and dust devils. There is a lot of valuable content in slayer, which is why I say it doesn't suck, just is inefficient when you reach higher levels.

 

 

 

[hide=]These arguments on our various threads are distracting me from armoured zombies :lol:[/hide]

 

Slayer dart: Lower hitting then fire wave, far less XP; fire wave is better unless your 99 mage, in which case COG or salamander is much better. Dust devils = MUCH slower XP\drops then armored zombies.

 

 

 

[hide=]You think you have it bad, I'm at PC. Ground out 500 points today, about to get back the void lost to d bower...

 

 

 

129 WPM typing skills ftw :[/hide]

 

Slayer dart is the most efficient way to do barrows at low levels,however, and dust devils are around 65k xp an hour,but their drops are better than armoured zombies.

 

 

 

[hide=]Btw don't take anything I say on other threads to heart, I get very "into" arguments easily.

 

 

 

Also, pc=pain I did it with heart unit and still couldn't stand it. :lol:[/hide]

 

Salamander = higher max hit, more accurate, cheaper then slayer dart at any level. Dust devils are NOT over 190k in drops per hour, and FAR less XP.

 

 

 

I hate PC too, I did 3,000 games with HU at the old PC, and 1,500 more at the new. But I lost full void to a d clawer, so I have no choice -.-

 

 

 

Debating mode Deviledegg and Personal mode Deviledegg are two very separate people. I've been likened to a machine during arguments :?

 

I'm at armoured zombies atm, only getting around 80k per hour.

 

 

 

Also, broad bolts, are worth the slayer level. Leaf bladed swords are worth it,etc.

 

Your not using the best equimpent then, and reduced stats. I get 102-103k XP\hour.

 

 

 

Leaf bladed swords are good for nothing, but broad bolts are a fair point - I use throwing rings for anything low defence\diamond bolts for anything high defence, but broad bolts might be worth it. Possible reason for 55 slayer...

Leaf blade swords are the best one handed stab weapon, the best weapon for meleeing mithril dragons after extensive testing by Qeltar.

 

 

 

[hide=]Just got 97 def at azs. Using full bandos+rune defender. We have come to the end of another quote parade.[/hide]
