Blocking Kalphites?

[bedman]

Hi,

 

 

 

I'm currently training 85-90 slayer, with an underlying goal of 95 or 96 summoning (so I might have to burst a bit too). Point is, I'm actually collecting charms, but I'm doing it through slayer cause it gives a bit of variety, and slayer xp.

 

Also, I'm 99 ranged, so cannoning isn't that appealing as it once was. (Still, I'm always happy to cannon my dag or bloodveld tasks).

 

 

 

Now, I'm having a hard time deciding what to block. Currently I have blocked:

 

 

 

1) Warped terrorbirds: No charms and annoying to kill. Good slayer xp though.

 

2) Hell hounds. Always crowded, boring, decent summong xp though. (about 100 golds per task + some of the others)

 

3) open, possibly steel drags

 

4) open, possibly kalphites

 

 

 

Kalphites are decent slayer xp with cannon, but I find them to be still too slow for my liking and a waste of cannonballs.

 

 

 

My question is simple: What do you think? Should I block kalphites, even though it can be quick slayer xp with a cannon. Or should I certainly not block them, cause I should block monster X. (gargs for instance, annoying rock hammer...)

Since you're after both Slayer and Summoning xp here's the best idea:

 

 

 

1) Block Steels

 

2) Block Irons if you'd like to, unless you enjoy them

 

3) KEEP Kalphites (slayer xp)

 

4) KEEP Gargolyes (summoning charms, plenty of crimsons from them if I remember correctly)

 

 

 

so in short, don't block those kalphites. They may not be the best summoning xp, but the slayer xp makes up for it.

Seeing as your main goal is summoning nonetheless i agree with the post earlier, but i would in fact still block the kalphites, but thats just an opinion. I think hellhounds would be nice not blocked,but if thats how you feel, then go for it. I have steels and kalphs blocked atm, and if i find another super terrible task, i'll think about it.
