skylor12344 Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 i was just wondering this to myself because i know the dusties dont have a very high chance at dropping the D chain even though i would LOVE to get one and no way i can afford it? other than the D chain what are dusties good for when camping?

Skilling0wn Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 I would not get 65 slayer if you just get it for a D chain. Which you probobly wont get. I have gotten a D chain in 500 first kills. But, I was extremely lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skylor12344 Posted December 3, 2008 Author Share Posted December 3, 2008 well like the post says...other than the d chain which has a very low drop rate from dusties is there any other reason why i should get 65 slayer? i know i want 85 for the Abby Demon and Whip drops but im a long ways from that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You better start on 65. :lol: And, they drop pretty many charms, and is a good way of training melee/range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toast647 Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 Dust devils are awesome for camping. Lots of decent drops and you can stay there forever with B2P tabs. Definately worth getting Come to #tip-it on Swift IRC, if you're cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrbalert Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 If you're planning on training your combat skills you might as well do it with slayer, more variety and fun Summoning 14--Hunter 12--Construction 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gun_hippy Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 It's worth it. Not for d chain, helllll no. I know you must know it's rare, but it's mroe than that. It's mind numbingly, amazingly, stupifyingly incredibly fantastically adjectivegasmly low chances. They are good because: - Good general drops. Not AWESOME, but good, regular drops. - Low def, really. - Rangeable - Decent xp (considering you also get the other benefits) - Pretty damn good for charms (considering you're porfiting with good xp) - It's always useful to have a decent slayer lvl - You'll get xp whilst training to get 65 slayer - They have a silyl animation that will keep you entertained for second, possibly even minutes on end! They're one of those really good "jack of all trades" monsters. Not the best at any one thing, but decent for everything. Ofc the d chain chance is always there for a little exciting dream as you zone the hell out for hours upon end grinding out those xp's. But anyway, if you just want a d chain then...um...do whatever you do to make money, theyre pretty cheap nowadays lol. You could make the cash for 40 d chains before you get one from a dustie.

Peterblue Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 That's what I've been doing(I'm going for 55 Slayer). The only problem is the Kalphites. I've got 7/15 tasks so far as Kalphites. I have tried all of my available methods(cannon, rnage, melee, both the 28s and 85s) and found them horribly slow. They're really the only thing that makes me not like Slayer(I'm fine with the other tasks, and I actually like Basilisks and Bronze Dragons). Click here to learn the best profit from MTK.

Kalphites are one of the quicker tasks with a cannon - don't see how you could rate these as slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gun_hippy Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 kalphite: They're not that slow, they just seem it because you have no drops to break things up. Trust me i get it. Might wanna just pray and multitask, let auto retal do the dirty work. I personally blocked them. That's not a smart thingto do, theyre great xp, they just feel it.

aspeeder Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 i know that is what my goal was when i first started slayer, but then i just fell in love instantly. I would've tried them but a. i havent started desert tresure :( (that quest freaks me out) and b. i wanted to try the bones to peaches method and just couldnt go through all of the mage arena it was sooo boring. idk i got a d chain just cuz i had some cash but i sold it recently b/c the price is dropping so rapidly. Bus slayer in general, for me, is totally worth it :thumbsup: http://i700.photobucket.com/albums/ww6/aspeeder/Siggy_zpsewaiux2t.png 99 Strength since 6/02/10 99 Attack since 9/19/10 99 Constitution since 10/03/10 99 Defense since 3/14/11 99 Slayer since 8/30/11 99 Summoning since 9/10/11 99 Ranged since 09/18/11 99 Magic since 11/12/11 99 Prayer since 11/15/11 99 Herblore since 3/29/12 99 Firemaking since 5/15/12 99 Smithing since 10/04/12 99 Crafting since 9/16/13 99 Agility since 9/23/13 99 Dungeoneering since 1/1/14 99 Fishing since 2/4/14 99 Mining since 2/28/14 99 Farming since 6/04/14 99 Cooking since 6/11/14 99 Runecrafting since 10/10/14 9 Fletching since 11/11/14 99 Thieving since 11/14/14 99 Woodcutting since 11/20/14 99 Construction since 12/03/14 99 Divination since 2/22/15 99 Hunter since 2/23/15 99 Invention since 01/20/17 99 Archaeology since 5/14/22 99 Necromancy since 11/22/25 Quest Point Cape since 08/20/09 Maxed since 2/23/15 Fire Cape since 02/27/13 Slayer: 3 Leaf-Bladed Swords, 8 Black Masks, 2 Hexcrests, 26 Granite Mauls, 5 Focus Sights, 33 Abyssal Whips, 9 Dark Bows, 1 Whip Vine, 3 Staffs of Light, 15 Polypore Sticks Dragon: 10 Draconic Visages, 7 Shield Left Halves, 20 Dragon Boots, 40 Dragon Med Helms, 8 Dragon Platelegs, 6 Dragon Spears, 20 Dragon Daggers, 5 Dragon Plateskirts, 1 Dragon Chainbody, 63 Off-hand Dragon Throwing Axes, 19 Dragon Longswords, 27 Dragon Maces, 1 Dragon Ward Treasure Trails: Saradomin Full Helm, Ranger Boots, Rune Body (t), Saradomin Vambraces, Various God Pages Misc:1 Onyx,1 Ahrim's Hood, 1 Guthan's Chainskirt, 1 Demon Slayer Boots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
