Range - Best way to train?

Featured Replies

I am currently level 55 Range, and I'm not the biggest fan of it as a skill. I have however come to realise the potentional of it, and how powerful and useful it can be. A higher range level will also obviosuly allow me to wear better dragonhide armour, which I will find useful when meleeing monsters with mage based attacks. This then brings me to my question. What would be the best/easiest/quickest/most enjoyable way of raising my ranged level?

rofl that sounded like you were writing an essay or something lol

 

 

 

at your lvl now, I would say knives at yaks, but once you get 80+ use red chins on skeleton monkies on ape atoll

 

 

 

Or once you get 70+ you could go to aviansies for good money, but slower xp

I would do 55-70 on moss giants (ct or northwest of ardougne) because of decent drops (snap seeds, half keys) and prayer with big bones.

This, or once you get 60/665 range maybe try the Fire Gians in the Waterfall.

50-70 yaks for pure xp, or soulwars.. Moss giants for both xp and money, or Green dragons for uber cash (you can tank knife).

 

 

 

70+ is pretty much just fire giants unless you wanna spend mils.

I dont need a siggy no moar.

*is gonna spend mills*

 

 

 

dun like to kick the same creature's [wagon] over and over again!

 

 

 

anyway... 60-65 yaks 65-70 fire giants. the fire giants should cover the costs from 60-70 (use broad bolts for fire giants! you won't regret it! slower, but a lot more enjoyable to me.)

70-90 aviansies. 90-99 grey chins at ape atoll.

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:

Thanks for the help so far everyone, I think I will pay Mossy a visit and start ranging the hell out of them soon! One last request, can anyone recommend the best form of ranging (like bone crossbow with bone bolts etc) for ranging mossys?

I think you'd be pretty godly if that was your ranged llevel.

Sig by me, in MS paint, but I'm still working on it.

Suggestions appreciated

 

This guide is as concise as a gourmet's handbook with the guidelines of "Pick up fork, stab food, insert into your mouth, then chew".

Fire Giants are one of the funnest monsters to kill with a huge variety of drops. Msb with steel arrows would kill them very fast. O and use accumulator

Move to broad bolts with rune cbow asap, in my testing broads blew away anything else that was anywhere near cheap.
