Inuashakent Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 I didn't say it's the hardest, ilovecardj did. But wait... what skill in RS is "hard?" Slayer is as c lose as it gets. Sure, it's the same as hp, but it comes at a slower xp rate due to the fact that you must kill what you are assigned. What, then, determines what the "hardest" cape is? Length? Cost? No, it should be a mixture of those, in which Slayer comes at the very bottom.

ilovecardj Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 You can buy half the capes for under 50 mil. the rest can be powered/bought for 100m or so, with very fast exp rates. exceptions are well : summoning takes far more time to get 99 slayer then 100m or 99 in any other skill. RUNECRAFT is HARD though runecraft, slayer, farming, agility and summoning probly the hardest ones in my opinion. for worked 99s, wc and fishing are slow but easy because its mostly afked. mining is tough and a well respected cape. hunter is fast you cant compare slayer to hp, because you only get slayer exp on task, you get hp automatically. there for you dont train hp, but you do train slayer Last input. Runescape is a very very very easy game. Nothing in runescape is hard at all really. But slayer is the hardest of runescape lol 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...
RayOxide Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 You're proving that its more of an opinion on how good/hard slayer is. And a skill thats "hard" would be based three quarters on price, and one on length, imo. And btw Kent: "... Nobody says it's hard... well, besides a few tasks..." (earlier) ilovecardj: " ...One of the best/hardest/most respected capes in the game..." Kent: "I didn't say it's the hardest, ilovecardj did." get it yet? @cardj. Runecrafting is almost impossible to lose money in it. Slayer is exactly the same xp ratio as hp, you kill things, so its pretty much just hp with more stipulations. But I do think mining is pretty hard to get imo. The amount of clicking is too annoying. And the xp isnt even good! But the hardest skill to get 99 in is summoning. Close 2nd would be mining or possibly something along the lines of it. I dont need a siggy no moar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilovecardj Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 actually you get 1.3 hp exp per damage delt and 1 xp per slayer monsters hp on a 100 hp monster thats 133 hp exp (plus maybe a few exp for recovered health) vs 100 slayer xp you will 99 hp before you are 2/3 done slayer if you got every single hp on task (note cannon slightly altars this) 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...
Inuashakent Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 If you remove the opinion or "Fun" factor, Slayer will still be on top. [Summoning guide (AOW)] [Slayer guide] [Melee & Brawl player] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayOxide Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Slayer isnt really fun. It's only fun to those combat loving people who can stick to a skill even when it gets really boring. And slayer isnt close to a good moneymaker unless you get a rare drop each task or 2 per task.. And it really honestly isnt hard to train. I dont need a siggy no moar.

tennisnick12 Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 I'm not really that good at money making and I can make 320k an hour with Blue dragons. So why are Blue dragons such a horrible way to make money. I'm not really aquainted with all the other money making methods, but to me 320k an hour is good money.

Inuashakent Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Something thats boring and long doesnt make it harder. Makes it more unwanted. In Runescape, speed and cost determine how hard a skill is. Other factors are opinionated, as NO SKILL IN RUNESCAPE IS "hard."

RayOxide Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Cost is the highest value of determining if a skill is hard. Slayer costs nothing. I dont need a siggy no moar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inuashakent Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Cost is the highest value of determining if a skill is hard. Slayer costs nothing. That's a whole bunch of bull. Money made from method 1-2 Experience gained/hour from method 2- method 1 * Amount of experience gained from method 2/ method 1 That's how you find what's efficient. In this case, replace method with skill. [Summoning guide (AOW)] [Slayer guide] [Melee & Brawl player] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bogwaga Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Camp at drop party pete's house lol lol Well on topic, slayer is clearly the best choice for him, because he should get a majority of the charms he needs for 99 summoning, and although he could make better money other places, he's still make alot of money by the time he gets 99 slayer.

And slayer isnt close to a good moneymaker unless you get a rare drop each task or 2 per task.. And it really honestly isnt hard to train. Now this really is an opinion. I never found slayer boring... And I wouldn't even classify myself as combat-loving (that's more something for PK'ers en boss hunters). It may not be hard to train, but what skill is really hard in RS? You can't run one skill down on the premise that it isn't "hard" and leave the rest of the game out of it. Slayer's hard because it costs a lot of time and decent skills overall. As for the original question. Don't do slayer if you just want a lot of money, do slayer if you want slayer experience + a bit of money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirk4slayer Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Untrimmed Sum cape prolly won't even work since I'm guessing you'll hit 99 Mage and maybe even HP before having enough charms for 99 Summoning.

tennisnick12 Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 I can almost guarantee we will see an untrimmed summoning cape in the next year. Charms can be obtained through theiving and if a person uses the rest of their combat training to obtain charms it will be very obtainable. I know this post is completely off topic, but just about nobody is actually addressing the question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
