Hi, I am making a zerker pure and I was wondering if it would be good experience for me to train at the monkey guards on Ape Atoll. I have the following skills:

 

 

 

Attack: 60

 

Strength: 62

 

Defence: 45

 

Prayer: 43

 

Hitpoints: 58

 

 

 

 

 

Also, would Pest Control be a good way for me to train?

Since they heal themselves, I am questioning whether or not you have the "KO" ability to finish them off before they heal up.

 

 

 

I don't think now is the best time for you to train there. Maybe when you get your strength into the 80's it would be a more viable choice.

I'm not sure if it really matters if you KO them, as you are simply training, and this would just relieve you of some extra clicking. I've only gone to these monkeys a couple times because I feel they are horrible for training unless you're using Dharoks.

 

 

 

You'd be better off killing a monster with lower defence, especially with stats in the lower 60's range. You could try experiments, or rock crabs (I haven't trained at either, though). I believe their low defence, low attack, and high hitpoints is a plus for training. I personally trained on slayer tasks, moss giants, and d-hallied fire giants for my melee experience as a Zerker pure.

 

 

 

Giants are nice since they give generous drops, and have low defence levels. I suggest against going hand-to-hand against a fire giant at your level, though. You'd be best to stick with the moss giants under Edgeville, provided you can make use of the shortcut. You'll find that most of their drops either stack or can be high alched for a profit.

 

 

 

Slayer might be more suitable once you get the feel of your pure, have some practice at prayer flashing, and have higher combat stats. You could try it now, but I feel that you'll get quite annoyed with some of the tasks if you start out too early.

 

 

 

I'd be happy to help you further along with your Berzerker, pure as I have some personal experience with them. I don't believe there is room on my friends list, but you can find me in "Lady_Heinous" clan chat when I am online. Although, I may not be online tonight, I have some plans. The other people there should be more than glad to help you. Hope I was of some help. :thumbup:

Thanks for your help :)
