Where did you do your mining when you were in early 40's Mining?

Right now I'm mining iron at Al-Kharid mine, but if there's a place where I could mine iron closer to a bank, I'd rather do that.

flying through the str lvls with dscim >:]

once I hit 60 str will be goin to controlled until 65/65 for rune defender, then back to all out ranging slayer

Controlled would be worse (=slower) than training attack and strength separately though. For one, you'll be getting defence xp, for another, you'll get strength xp slower, therefore less damage. The fastest way to 65/65/68-69 would be to train strength to 65 first.

Makes sense for sure, that +3 str is always nice, what would you figure for 99/99/99 though, I was planning on doing controlled from 70/70/70 to 99 just so I can use whip to train str. prob the best way to go about it, since I will only have d scim and whip to choose from

Itam.gif

If you can get a Saradomin sword, then that's probably the best (with a high ranged level and barrows gear, you can solo Zilyana right?). If you have dscim and whip, then I'm not 100% sure on which is better, but if you were starting at 60/60/65, I'd say, train to 80 strength or so, then move to attack, then at 70 start using a whip on controlled, then at 99 strength finish up attack and defence. That does depend pretty heavily on what you're training on though - if you intend to go crazy on steel dragons and whatnot, you'll want to go for attack sooner. Another way to go for it is to kill low-defence monsters with dscim/ss on aggressive and strong monsters (e.g. metal dragons) with whip on controlled, to mitigate the accuracy difference between whip and dscim.

Get 70/x/70 then train str until 85 slayer and subsequently get a whip THEN train on controlled until STR is finished. 

 

That's what I would do.

Luck be a Lady

But 70/x/70 would be useless if you didn't have Barrows armour and whip. There's no need to train attack until you're close to getting a whip (say, 84 slayer).

Well except at some point the xp needed to get 1 level in strength would equal many levels in attack. At that point i'm pretty sure those attacks levels would help more.

There is a point like that, but even when slaying with dscim, you should keep attack and strength 10+ levels apart. If you train 68-85 slayer with ranged and melee, meleeing only low-defence tasks, you should be able to get about 70-75 strength first, then go back and forth between attack and strength until 70/80-85 (ignoring defence, because that's useless) or whatever strength you'd end up at at 85 slayer.

dscimming low defense tasks will prob be my plan, letting that decide how much more I train str than attack. wasn't planning on going for sarasword since Ive lost all motivation to do SGWD (spent too much time sgwding pre eoc) but when I look back sarasword was fairly common drop and I could prob tough it out^^ 

 

hopin to be 68-69 herb before my first iron/steel drag task, because im definitely not skipping them >:O
