ClimberKid Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 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? Current Goal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildmonkeys5 Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mister_moocky Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 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. quit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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

RayOxide Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 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.

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. *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.)

llamster Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 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: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeptical Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 I know my range is horrible, but I use Mossies when I do train, and I hear that they're acceptable exp, and I like the prayer exp.

ClimberKid Posted May 6, 2009 Author Share Posted May 6, 2009 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? Current Goal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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

manitstinks Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaosoffar Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 Move to broad bolts with rune cbow asap, in my testing broads blew away anything else that was anywhere near cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
