Bdvo89 Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 I had my first task assigned to me the opening day and cancelled it just because I knew it would be so crowded. What is the best way to go about owning this thing? (Fastest way possible) What is your setup? Food? Prayer? Familiar? OL' SCHOOL CIRCA '01, YOU MAD BRO?

nicrune007 Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 They are much weaker to range then melee. But its faster to melee them in tasks.

gorgoroth Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 Well having had 9 of these tasks already i have finally come up with the setup i believe to be better than any other. Here is what i use: Karil Leathertop Karil Leatherskirt Infinity Boots Skillcape Zamorakian Spear (stap) Amulet of Fury Barrows Gloves Ring of Wealth Slayer Helm This is by far better than ranging. I manage to kill 3 times faster than people using whip and 2 times faster than rangers with this setup. **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...

I doubt you kill them 3x faster than a whip :P but yh using a ZS and using Stab deals a considerable amount of damamge compared to whip, since your on task i suggest you use his setup, but i would replace the skillcape with a fire cape and the RoW with a onyx (I) ring but thats just me :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a Slayer next to me using a whip and b the time he finished his kill i was 1 hit away from finishing my 3rd.

ultimatballr Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 Personally I like to tank range them. I wore: Sara Coif Karil Top Karil Skirt Inf Boots Crystal Bow Fury RoW Barrow Gloves Accumulator I could kill them considerably fast, I don't know if it was the set-up or the fact I have 97 range. They hit a considerable amount though when they do hit.. It was hard for me to keep my health up even with a bunyip. Maybe I didn't bring enough "buffer" food to keep me filled until I could get more raw shark or swordie drops. With a Uni though you could stay practically forever... or at least until you run out of scrolls. Apparently, my signature was to big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zwyrm Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 Bunyip is very helpful there, since aquanites drop raw fish. And you might wanna use protect from mage prayer. Aquanites have hit 20's on me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring a bunny along with a good bit of swallow whole scrolls; along with good food to stall until you get raw drops(monks would be sufficient). Orthodoxy is unconciousnessthe only ones who should kill are those who are prepared to be killed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with the gear, I just can't accept your general statement that using a ZS is 3x faster than a whip. There are too many factors to take into consideration like your stats, if you were using str/att super pots and combat boosting prayer and what the other player you're comparing yourself to was using. I've been there a few times myself and used both a whip and ZS and did not see any siginificant difference in either weapon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UserOnRS Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 Proselyte and mage prayer, I find they hit too much on me even with unicorn, karils, dfs and enhanced excalibur Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayOxide Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 Thought they had an attack that prevents mage prayer for a while.. I dont need a siggy no moar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cptbaker08 Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 Thought they had an attack that prevents mage prayer for a while.. They do, they turn prayer off and when they do they always hit. Best to just wear hides and melee/range them.

RayOxide Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 I'm liking the idea that you can and it is effective to tankrange these. It seems Jagex is opening up more rangable ideas, so melee isnt always the best option I dont need a siggy no moar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
