nick4567 Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 But whats the point of lowering the defense since you aren't meleeing them. And lowering magic level is worth more than defense level. And they both have the same max hit because of the 10% extra damage with staffs like ancient staff/ahrims staff etc. It is also easier paying much less then 100k then going to go pc and spend points on mace rather void/xp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gorgoroth Posted October 15, 2009 Author Share Posted October 15, 2009 You're not lowering their melee def, you're lowering their magic def meaning your magic attakc become a lot more accurate. And they wont both have the same max hit. Flames of Zammy can only be cast using the ZAmmy staff where Claws can be cast with either the Guthix Staff or Void Mace. Thats why claws of guthix is the only one of the god spells that makes it worth it. **Thanks to Boo_Boy666 for my amazing Singnature**[hide=Slaytanicc's Achievments]|99Cooking achieved 24Dec 2008|99Strength achieved 17Feb 2009|99Hit Points achieved 8April 2009||99Defense achieved 29May 2009|99Attack achieved 2August 2009|99Ranged achieved 14August 2009|[/hide][hide=Guides by Slaytanicc]Aviansie Maging + Ranging Guide (Must Read!!)Iron Mining + Banking GuideGreen Dragons GuideAnkou Slaying Guide[/hide] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SacredFlam3s Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 what would you say is better for maging with claws of guthix+charge: mystic or full void, bearing in mind I don't have full void at all.

Then again I don't know many people that use void mage.I don't suppose you've kept a log of hits vs no hits during your maging escapades at any point? I'd love to see it if you've have. nobody i know can really tell me for sure how exactly runescape's accuracy system works, so i can only run around and make blind stabs in the dark and see what looks simplistic and generally jagex-ish. Considering that even you say ahrims > void mage, i personally won't invest my time in getting void mage just to test the theory.but any data would be absolutely terrific.

schmuall Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 My first ever trip. Used it more as a learning experience than a real money-making run. Discovered that emergency food and teleport are really not necessary, also body runes aren't worth the inventory space. And I have to stop picking up herbs (no matter how hard that is). Next I'm going to try to work out whether using a pendant of armadyl and fighting the lower level avianses in the eerye (spelling) makes up for the loss of range bonus from not using amulet of ranging while fighting higher level ones. Thanks for the guide!!! give F2P a penny and they want a dime; give P2P a quarter, they want 100,000 dollars, your car, house, boat, social security number, credit card numbers, drivers license, clothes on your back and everything you ever owned or interacted with ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So ill be sure to keep a decent log on exp/hits/etc.Just fancied some maths800 casts is what about 1 hour and a bit so call it 15 casts of charge 15*180=2700780*35=2730077300-27300=5000050000/2=2500025000/780=32 Which seems a bit extreme to me, but I suppose you could minus about 2k from the exp if you take into account alchs which would drop it to about 31 on average. gorg are you sure you was getting 80k from about 800 casts?800*35=2800080000-28000=5200052000/2=2600026000/800=32.5 on average if thats pure casts no charges. EDIT your idea on void at rock lobsters is just what I was looking for as I'm saving for 88 summoning and void is about 3m cheaper for me(since I only have the helm to get).

gorgoroth Posted November 3, 2009 Author Share Posted November 3, 2009 Meh i took 800 casts an hour as an Avarage since alot of players afk at Aviansies. I can get close to about 1k casts an hour if i rarely afk and if i keep myself glued to the screen i could fit in an extra 100. Which Void + Charge the ax hit of Claws is 33. I brought the avg hit to about 24 or 25. So suppose you hit 24 on avg. you get 35exp (base exp) + 48 exp(for the damage done). Thats a total of 83 exp per fast. If you can manage to glue yourself yo the screen and get 1100 casts an hour you could even 91k exp an hour. Thats not even mentioning another 2k exp for charging along with about 2k more for alching. Sure 80k is a very high ammount for PvM maging but as with every other guide i neglected to mention the terms of getting such a high ammount. **Thanks to Boo_Boy666 for my amazing Singnature**[hide=Slaytanicc's Achievments]|99Cooking achieved 24Dec 2008|99Strength achieved 17Feb 2009|99Hit Points achieved 8April 2009||99Defense achieved 29May 2009|99Attack achieved 2August 2009|99Ranged achieved 14August 2009|[/hide][hide=Guides by Slaytanicc]Aviansie Maging + Ranging Guide (Must Read!!)Iron Mining + Banking GuideGreen Dragons GuideAnkou Slaying Guide[/hide] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gorgoroth Posted November 3, 2009 Author Share Posted November 3, 2009 Btw Schmaull using the Eyree is a bad idea. There are only about 2 lvl 73's a 2 lvl 83's 2 lvl 79's and then some 90+. Using the red spot provides you with lvl 69's and 71's along with 1 Lvl 89 and 83. The red spot is by far the best place for Aviansies. **Thanks to Boo_Boy666 for my amazing Singnature**[hide=Slaytanicc's Achievments]|99Cooking achieved 24Dec 2008|99Strength achieved 17Feb 2009|99Hit Points achieved 8April 2009||99Defense achieved 29May 2009|99Attack achieved 2August 2009|99Ranged achieved 14August 2009|[/hide][hide=Guides by Slaytanicc]Aviansie Maging + Ranging Guide (Must Read!!)Iron Mining + Banking GuideGreen Dragons GuideAnkou Slaying Guide[/hide] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gorgoroth Posted November 4, 2009 Author Share Posted November 4, 2009 Oh umm yeah about breaking even. When i did this method runes were alot cheaper and bars were around the price they are now. I had a fairly decent bar drop ratio aswell. A few people that have done this method recently have told me that they make about a 2gp/ep loss at most which still isnt too bad considdering that its the same cost as superheating but can be alot better Exp. But i'm still positive that you could break even if you manage to get the runes for a decent price and have some luck on the drops and hits. Dont rely on braking even though.This method really isnt for making profit its for "having fun" while maging since there arent alot of fun ways for training mage. **Thanks to Boo_Boy666 for my amazing Singnature**[hide=Slaytanicc's Achievments]|99Cooking achieved 24Dec 2008|99Strength achieved 17Feb 2009|99Hit Points achieved 8April 2009||99Defense achieved 29May 2009|99Attack achieved 2August 2009|99Ranged achieved 14August 2009|[/hide][hide=Guides by Slaytanicc]Aviansie Maging + Ranging Guide (Must Read!!)Iron Mining + Banking GuideGreen Dragons GuideAnkou Slaying Guide[/hide] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UserOnRS Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 Do you think you could profit if you take an inventory of extreme mage pots (last 6 minutes each) with a couple bunyips and bank to restock? It'd mean being able to hit 13 higher so could increase the xp/hour a lot, the only problem is that you have to train herblore. :P Superheating is looking attractive for me to train mage though as it gets lots of smithing experience too, shame because it looks fun to mage away at these. :( I could do some trips every now and then to break the monotony though.)

Cptbaker08 Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Using Void mace, Charge, and Claws of Guthix i was able to 3-4 hit them most of the time. It was great. Charge lasted about 15 kills before having to reuse it again. Wore almost the same setup as your tanking method, except the ring didn't sell and used Falador Shield 3 as i dind't wanna spend gps on a DFS. Brought only 1k casts though. Should have brought more.
