Omg12333 Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 I really don't like slayer, because it's just slow and pretty annoying to train. One factor of my hate for slayer is Infernal Mages. I just hate their fire blasts, and combined with my horrendous luck, means frequent strings of 8s, their max hit. Add to that the fact that I hit very low on them with melee, due to my bad luck, again. What you get is a huge pain-in-the-[wagon] assignment. Don't forget that they are frequently assigned in numbers greater than 150, and you have a very long, annoying, and a not-very-rewarding task. I hope that my next task will be something better.

compfreak847 Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 No such thing as luck. Wear mage armor and pray or use BTP. Use prayer and super sets to hit more often.

Poopingman Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 Feel free to rant, this is what this board is here for after all... But still, the main fulcrum of your argument seems to be your bad "luck", which really isn't a very valid point. Metal fans, check out my band!Still the King....

hkscaper Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Don't try to be cheap, bring good food, maybe a bones to peaches tabs or two. I was surprised by their hit rate the first time I had this task, but never had any problem when I'm well prepared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moad14 Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 I wear dragonhide and never get hit. Infernal Mages are one of my favorite tasks actually. I love to meet people; send me a pm if you see me on RuneScape! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
langer Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 I really like slayer... but I have to say Infernal Mages are a pretty sucky task in terms of loot. Karil is your best bet with monks and super set.

rsInvestorr Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 I wear d hide and range them. You can hitch them on 2-3 things in the room, so you shouldn't get hit at all. They are easily a decent assignment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoeSzyslak Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 I understand... Infernal Mages are pretty strong for their level, one time I was killing them for slayer, and browsing the internet/forums while doing so. All of a sudden when I turn back to the RS screen, I somehow got lowered to 8 hp, and boom, it hit an 8 before I could react. It was pretty funny... perhaps a bit careless on my part, but I swear that mage must have taken at least 30-40 hp from me. I was wearing dhide and everything too.

RayOxide Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 Why can't I rant about my bad luck? Because there is no such thing as luck. There is chance, which people call 'luck'. So I guess he means he has a bad chance factor. I dont need a siggy no moar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I guess he means he has a bad chance factor. Everyone has the same probability of a drop, so far as we know. So he should have said "my sample range was too low to show any accurate results; I interpreted it as 'bad luck', not knowing that I simply didn't have a big enough view" Drops: 1x Draconic Visage, 56x Abyssal Whip, 5x Demon Head, D Drops: 37, Barrows Drops: 43, DK Drops: 29GWD drops: 14,000x Bars, 1x Armadyl Hilt, 2x Armadyl Skirt, 4x Sara Sword, 1x Saradomin Hilt, 8x Bandos Hilt, 8x Bandos Platebody, 9x Bandos Tassets, 4x Bandos Boots, 43x Godsword Shard, 82x Dragon BootsDry streak records: Saradomin 412 kills Bandos 988 kills Spirit Mages 633 kills - Slayer Sucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark Lord Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 Slayer can be a pain, which is why I've played for 3-4 years and have just now trained slayer. As far as bad luck, I have found that wearing high strength bonuses (especially black mask) not only raises your max hit, but it also seems to make you hit higher more often than without the extra bonus. Just wear black dragonhide or void knight armour. Also try to use black masks (doesn't matter if it's charged or not) and try to use a whip if possible (plus rune defender). That might help. SWAG Mayn U wanna be like me but U can't be me cuz U ain't got ma swagga on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
