Abdulla Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 So Drumgun will be 200m Mine in about ~3 weeks. Anyone friends with him to ask him what his next plans are? I'm new to this thread so I apologize in advance if I'm asking questions that have already been answered. Can he currently afford 200m buyables and/or does he have them banked?Also, is he just doing daily challenges for Dungeoneering or is he purposely waiting for 200m and losing ranks? :shock: I think the mentality of the front page players is to try be as efficient as possible. DG challenges are the most efficient way to get to 200m from 120 (about 2.4m/hour, correct me if I am wrong). Individual ranks don't really matter to them as they are on the front page and there are practically no good individual skill ranks anymore outside of perhaps summoning/agility to obatin, (and divination when it comes out). For example Dragonseance has stopped just short of 200M in magic and prayer, and soon runecraft as well. This is to not waste incidental experience that you inevitability get while playing. Magic experience from teleports and runecraft/prayer form ports etcetera 2 (22:28:44) <@Leik> LE INTORNUTZ SPEEK xDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum_Myr Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 Top players tend towards AFK style methods because it makes it a lot less likely they will burn out. Doing high focus, high apm, repetitive actions over and over can easily burn (most, there have been exceptions) people out, and if you want to play for the amount of hours required it definitely helps to do AFK things. 2 Maxed since Sunday, January 9th, 2014Completionist since Wednesday, June 4th, 2014 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgehog Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 For example, it's a lot easier to do rocktails for 30 hours than it is to do C2s for 10 hours. While C2s are better from an efficiency standpoint, it's unrealistic to expect most top players to do them all the way to 200m. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kr148 Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 Nah i bet it is the most efficient. 5 mins at most a day for what like 140k xp. lets go with 5 mins, even tho smalls can take as little as 2 mins, thats 140k multiplied by 12, thats a minimum of 1680k an hour. can be over 2m easily. Comparing that to the 400k-600k an hour of normal dungeoneering its pretty efficient. One may argue that something like crafting because of urns or agility because it is slow would be more efficient, but the main difference between dg daily and those dailies is that dungeoneering is always going to be the same. Unless they changed it, you can get some stupid stuff for crafting like black dhide vambs, and dorgesh-kaan for agi. Correct me if im wrong but i think thats why its more efficient 2 http://www.youtube.com/user/PajamaGaming^click for RS vids Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum_Myr Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 I understand where you're coming from about individual skill ranks, but I'm pretty sure Dungeoneering is not the most efficient daily challenge. It is the highest xp/hr challenge, because you can complete it in a very short time if you do a c6 small. Even using my times, which are not really great, 3minutes for a c6 small, plus maybe 30 seconds to a minute of setup time to actually get there and go.. That means I gain 130k XP + floor xp (depending on floor anywhere from 10k-20k, as I don't do repeats) so about 140k (and that's not even at 120!) that is upwards of 2.5m xp/hr and it only gets higher as you get higher prestige and lvl (each level up increases xp reward as well) So for sure it's the highest xp/hr, and probably highest gain. Most of the other challenges don't give you that much.. thieving is like 10 minutes for 70k+xp but you have to do dwarf traders, and it's not consistent. You don't always get the same challenge. Sure the slow skills "might" be better.. but you have to do the bad challenges, like Dorgeshuan Agility.. I rarely got the challenge for doing the high level course. Now, YOU might decide that you would rather get bonus xp in something else, because you find DG fun and therefor easier to do. But we can just look at time saved. Assuming DG is 600k an hour, the 150k bonus xp saves you about 15 minutes, but it costs you about 3 minutes. so a net gain of 12 minutes saved. I don't have the times for agility but I do for hunter. Hunter challenge is 63 jadinkos of any kind. Assuming you're already setup, you can do draconics with all the bonus potions. I did this in just under 10 minutes. that's 37k xp from the draconics less a few commons. I earned 42k for the challenge. Hunter is aproximately 200k.. so the xp earned takes 23 minutes of regular hunter average. In addition, it cost me 10 minutes of time maybe 11 if you count setup time. That means only 12 minutes saved like DG. However, hunter XP can go as high as 220k (if you are excellent) and that means only 10 minutes saved overall. In addition, DG depends heavily on good teammates, which not everyone can or is willing to get. That means DG effective xp rate can go down (for example if you solo, or have bad teams, or just unlucky floors). In addition, I counted doing the worst possible floor size (small) which takes the least time but if you were already going to do a proper dungeon you lose even "less". DG also gets more xp as you go up from 99->120, so the xp rates I used for the challenge actually go up a little bit making it even more efficient. Basically, I setup the numbers to be as best in hunter's favor as I could and it still isn't enough to make it better than DG.

LogOnBeach Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 Not sure if anything has changed for hunter, but weren't DJads almost 300k/h? Which would devalue your calculations even further. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum_Myr Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 I don't think they go that high, and for sure the average rate isn't that high once you count time to stock on potions. I know my average for hunter was no more than 220k. But either way, if it was that high it makes hunter challenge even less valuable.

LogOnBeach Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 Foot has said in a vid its between 280-295k. I believe that is just the pure exp/h rate for Djads, like you said the potions would lower exp/h Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgehog Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 Draconics are 315k xp/hour with a yaktwee stick. Roughly 300k if you factor in the time it takes to get the potions. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr_Muto Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 Does Yahktwee stick really help that much? When I did 99 Hunter last summer I was only getting about 215k an hour. That or I might just be bad. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That or I might just be bad. That's about what I got plus the 5% for yaktwee stick. Granted it's different @ lvl 99 vs up to it, but I can't really believe it would be 100k/hr more... Ofcourse There are optimal times, and perfect clicking and never messing up a single flower trap, as well as knowing which ones to get, and being in the absolutely correct spot. I suppose it's maybe possible.. But I recall the average being 220k a while ago so unless something else changed too? I am just confused...

Abdulla Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 It is most definately above 300k/hour. I will edit in some recent videos of people doing hunter and achieving over 300k/hour (or above 275k as the person I am thinking of had 1 sum at the time so no bear). You should be getting 624.5xp per draconic with all the bonuses and 3% avatar. (It is better to have bear and 3% bonus than just the 6% bonus and no bear). The guy here get's 290k xp in the hour, but he doesn't have a bear, so bear that in mind. Also just realised he does not have a yahktwee stick either. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0s8T3lirUSo&feature=share&list=PL198CCB707C9909BB 1 (22:28:44) <@Leik> LE INTORNUTZ SPEEK xDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You probably hunter like Jake or like a bot (you don't run to the square where your traps are) - making you waste 1 tick per trap. Also, you might have not used action bar to lay your traps - bye one more 1 tick per trap. It adds up to a lot of ticks per hour, as you can guess by looking at your XP rate. 1 My youtube channel with efficient skilling guides and achievements Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
