April 9, 200917 yr off topic a bit, but i have a question about chins. Do grey chins have area affect like reds? I've always thought they didn't, but someone told me they did. explain? They have the same 3x3 square space explosion, damaging monsters in said vicinity, as the Carnivorous Chinchompas yet the Greys generally hit less and produce less experience.
April 11, 200917 yr You compleatly left out range void, which is probably the best range slayer armour ever Not a bad guide, but the equipment you suggested was rubbish {DeviantART}{Last.Fm}{Join Sublime GFX, great community for artists!}Back to RuneScape, Again.Avatar by Brian The Great
April 11, 200917 yr You compleatly left out range void, which is probably the best range slayer armour ever Not a bad guide, but the equipment you suggested was rubbish Yes, Armdyl is complete rubbish. :roll: God I hate the word "rubbish".
April 12, 200917 yr Awesome guide. It really helped me a lot. Btw, I made this just a minute ago for the safespots at waterfiends. The red squares are where you stand, and the red circles are where the waterfiend will be. Feel free to use it in your waterfiend section of the guide if you want. Edit: That safespot in the bottom left should be up and to the right one square. Sorry about that. Next time I go there I'll get another pic and fix it. 99 HP, Attack, Strength, Defence, Summoning, Ranged, Herblore, Prayer, Agility, Magic, Slayer, Fletching, Fishing, Woodcutting, Mining, and Thieving. Jagex'd out of my untrimmed hp cape on 6/14/2011.
April 12, 200917 yr This guide,is one of the best i've seen by far;Good Work. -------Sig being made-------
April 13, 200917 yr You compleatly left out range void, which is probably the best range slayer armour ever Not a bad guide, but the equipment you suggested was rubbish Try reading the guide before posting :wall: Every monster has a small section on whether or not it can be voided And what do you expect? It's not like melee's armor. A ranger has 3 choices. Black d'hide or blessed d'hide for pretty much anything, Karil's if they need the mage defense, or Armadyl, which trumps both for 15 times the cost. Even weapons are straightfoward for the most part. A rune crossbow for efficiency, now Zanik's crossbow for cheapness, or obsidian rings for performance(I believe. They're better than a rune crossbow at aviansies, so I assume that goes for anywhere.) My skin is finally getting softI'll scrub until the damn thing comes off

Armadyl is not rubbish its the highest stats for ranger armor. I have edited in the sarcasm tag. Anyway, Robinhoodie, perhaps you could test obsidian rings? As they are faster than a rune crossbow, more damaging than steel arrows, and a shield's accuracy better than a magic shortbow, they could potentially make faster kills. My skin is finally getting softI'll scrub until the damn thing comes off

Compared to melee which has only one decent weapon. Ah, this reminds me about the noob on the Runescape forums who was upset with the quest "Cold War" because apparently his grandparents died in the war. :wall:

I just brought antipoison and a terrorbird with food just in case. It's a lot better than waterfall dungeon as there's no spiders the cannon attacks and noone ever goes there. Can I ask where abouts you place the cannon though? Where I put it, I had to run around a bit to get one giant the cannon didn't attack.
April 15, 200917 yr Wow, amazing guide! "Those who give up their liberty for more security neither deserve liberty nor security." Support transparency... and by extension, freedom and democracy.

Next time I go there I'll get another pic and fix it. Epic. Thanks mate, I'll add that in now and fully credit you. :D This guide,is one of the best i've seen by far;Good Work Why thank ya. :D [bypassing the whole equipment discussion as it's been adressed] just wow. THis guide is amazing. Bookmarked =) Woot! Anyway, Robinhoodie, perhaps you could test obsidian rings? As they are faster than a rune crossbow, more damaging than steel arrows, and a shield's accuracy better than a magic shortbow, they could potentially make faster kills. Hm, I might test this out when I feel the lure to Rs back, but I think it would cost quite a bit too much.Thanks for the tip. Can I ask where abouts you place the cannon though? Where I put it, I had to run around a bit to get one giant the cannon didn't attack. I honestly can't remember off the top of my head. Try using the picture as a reference. : Wow, amazing guide! Very good guide. I know I'll be using it That's what I'm hopin. ;) Thanks to all those who have messaged me concerning a revamp of my Range-Slayer guide. Because of you all I will start rewriting it asap.[/color] Formerly RobinHoodie.
April 18, 200917 yr Has to be one of the best guide i've read. Next time i'm gonna slay i will defintily use it! 99 Woodcutting 09/12/08 - 99 Cooking 13/01/09 - 99 Fletching 20/04/09 - 2,713th to 99 Construction 14/09/09[hide=Quote]New summon monster. You get 99 summon and complete a hard quest to gain the ability to summon Jesus, who splits the waters allowing you to walk to a new port town where you unlock the sailing skill. Obviously ;) That was Moses you idiot. That gets fixed in the bugfix the following week. Maybe.[/hide]
April 19, 200917 yr You should also add that you should only use void in the smoke dungeon if you're already using Eagle Eye, since Eagle eye has the same drain as protect prayers and is better than void. Ah, this reminds me about the noob on the Runescape forums who was upset with the quest "Cold War" because apparently his grandparents died in the war. :wall:
April 19, 200917 yr Great guide, but you're missing a few important monsters. 1) Mutated bloodvelds - Requires completion of "Legacy of Seergaze", but it's cannonable. You must use Protect from Melee, so it is an expensive task. However, you will easily get 100k+ range xp/hour there. 2) Black demons (Taverly) - Jagex recently updated these to have the same charm drop rate as those in the Chaos Tunnel. For the best cannon spots of the monsters I've mentioned, check out Zarfot's Mega Slayer Guide on the Runescape Official Forum. Best of luck to all range-slayers out there!
May 4, 200917 yr Just wanna say, you can bank the wyvern bones if you've started "rocking out" by using the locker in rimmington : There are three sides to any argument: your side, my side and the right side.
May 5, 200917 yr Dude i got skelatol wyverns as task, used your guide, and on like 10th kill granite legs drop \ :thumbsup: :twisted: 8-) You own There are three sides to any argument: your side, my side and the right side.
May 10, 200917 yr hey, love ur guide :D been range slaying for a while now and this has been quite usefull about gargs, as you said killing them in slayer tower is fairly slow, they are best done in chaos tunnels they are extremely easy to safespot in chaos tunnels, spawn nicely and there isnt normally many people there. you can also use a combat famaliar and yea, heaps faster :D im bored and slaying gargs atm so took a couple screenies showing how easy they are to safespot [hide=pics] [/hide] also the enchanted excaliber is VERY usefull for any task in which you are taking any damage anywho, keep up the good work, n00b~ EDIT: just did another task, and in the time of 1 fire titan i killed 135 gargs at 92 range
May 20, 200917 yr Quote: If you want to edit: dust devils are a great cannon task in the dust well in west of Pollnivneach. Arma body and skirt, slay helm and the usual equip. A few 100 cballs and you're fine.. edit: and a bunyip would help ;o) Regards I could've sworn that you couldn't cannon in there. Not sure though. Thanks. : well. i SWEAR you can, thats how i get this task over more quickly ;o) it is single comat though, so u have to stay in the 1 safespot. if u get attacked kill it and go back to the safespot and let the cannon work for you. works fine, really. go try it out ;o)
May 30, 200917 yr Awesome guide, 9.99999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999/10 10/10 if it wasn't for this error [hide=Darts Error] Darts: Darts are the fastest weapons in the game, and damn, they hit fast. Of course, this also means that they hit pretty slowly. I find this error hilarious for some reason. I think you meant, "Of course, this also means that they hit pretty low" otherwise, informative guide, everything a range slayer like me needs.
May 30, 200917 yr something that i dont think you mentioned was that if you do not have a spec weapon and are tanking the task that enhanced excalibur would probably be worthwhile since it increases both hp and defense sorry if that is mentioned but i didn't see it
May 30, 200917 yr something that i dont think you mentioned was that if you do not have a spec weapon and are tanking the task that enhanced excalibur would probably be worthwhile since it increases both hp and defense sorry if that is mentioned but i didn't see it Last time he updated this guide was pre-Enhanced Excalibur.
