Gathering blue charms

[Tafkan]

Which monsters are good and reliable blue charm droppers? (that I can actually kill at a decent rate with my levels)

[SanNo1]

abberant spectres are the only decent ones i can think of at your lvl, but imo you should always hunt for crimsons instead of blue.

[Lord Diddy]

Kalphite soldiers, Aberrant Spectres, Tormented Demons, and Corporeal Beast are probably the most reliable monsters for blues. This doesn't mean your getting 50-75 blues/hr at those monsters like waterfiend crimsons. They just drop blues a bit more often then the other charms, but overall are very slow charms. On top of that your stats aren't in the efficient levels which makes hunting blues an even worse training route.

 

 

 

I'd suggest slaying for charms because majority of slayer monsters drop a decent amount of charms. Other monsters you can kill for crimsons at your levels are Dust Devils (will have to get slay up), and Black Demons.

 

 

 

Rock Lobsters > Waterfiends > Black Demons >> Dust Devils

Listen to what Lord_Diddy said. Best to hunt for crimsons and just let the blues come in on the side. Along with what Diddy said, Suqahs and Aquanites also drop blues more often then some other creatures. But you can't kill Aquanites.

 

 

 

Slayer is a good way to get a variety of charms. Once you hit 65 you can camp dusties for crimsons or continure slaying.

Wallasalki's are good blue charm droppers, and you can use a cannon on them.

I found Armoured Zombies to be something like 16-24 blue charms per hour... So that's about what 20 blues/hour average.

 

 

 

This is the best I have gotten so far, though I have never went hunting for blue charms, I was just training my attack.

Uhhhh no way do Azs drop 20 blues/hour...

 

 

 

More like 5 blue charms/hr.

Gargoyles drop a decent number of blues....but I wouldn't go out of my way to fight them

[toast647]

Nothing drops a lot of blue charms. As said above just go for crimsons and let the others add up. Also, save all blues for geyser titans.

FYI: Only do that if you have quite a bit of GP to use as the water talismans are costly. If you don't want to spend that kind of money, Moss Titans works just fine.

[Tafkan]

No, I think you misunderstood. I don't want the blues for training - already got my crimsons and greens for that. I want them to actually make some high-end familiars, like titans.

 

 

 

Anyway, looks like several people suggested abby spectres, going to check them out first, thanks. :)

If your done Defender of Varrock you should kill armoured zombies. In my experience in 1 trip ( about 2 hours long ) I get 10-20 blue charms along with about around 170k xp or more. I got 500 blue charms.

[Unknown_Warrior]

Bosses are your best bet. Tormented demons, especially, have great Blue charm drop rates.

 

Last trip, I killed 14, of which I got 21 blue charms, 12 gold, 6 crimsons and 3 greens.

The only monster that actually has a decent blue charm drop rate is Bork. Kill him once a day for 5 blue charms. If you only need them for personal use, five a day plus any you happen to get from your crimson droppers ought to be enough to make pouches faster than you use them up.

 

 

 

And if you run out, just use one of the familiars from another charm--at most summoning levels, there isn't a big difference. For example, hydras and giant ents (green charm familiars) are about the same effectiveness as moss or ice titans, with almost the exact same combat stats. (The fire titan is still a little better because more enemies are weak to magic, but not by a terribly huge margin.) The only time there's a significant gap is from 89-91 summoning, when you definitely want geyser titans instead of spirit dagannoths.

[Phixcire]

well if you did what lies below quest and hunted bork or that mage thriugh the chaos tunnel you can kill bork one a day for 5 blue 5-7 red green gold charms once a day even with your stats wouldnt be to bad just melee prayer with food since mage hits you for 20+ thats what i do for blues other then that slayer tasks never hunt for blues

[Phixcire]

wow lots of errors in that last post lmao oh well its late and tired so ignore the mess ups

I've heard some great things about cannoning Wallasalkis, but I've also heard that they fail.

[langer]

From my experience as a slayer, these are the monsters (from the shilo master) that drop the most blue charms:

 

- Dark beast (looks like you don't have the requirement)

 

- Gargoyles ( same as dark beasts)

 

- Aberrant Specters (lots of banking involved if you plan on banking all herbs worth more than 1K)

For Abbys, I only take kwuarm and ranarr herbs, as well as any seeds (kwuarm, snap, and dwarf weed), adamant legs, battlestaves, and mystic.

 

 

 

There are herbs worth over 1k and less then kwuarm, but they aren't worth picking up, esp. if you are cannoning like I do.

It's a matter of opinion when saying it's worth it or not. I also cannon them and always bring a familiar (war tortoise) to bank more and I usually bank when the familiar is near death, which is frequently when I run out of monkfish.

You don't pray when you cannon?

 

 

 

I do the same. With a War Tortoise, I can fill up it's 18 spaces and almost any free room I have in my invent just on kwuarms/ranarr herbs and no other herbs (except perhaps dwarf weed).

[langer]

No I don't pray when I cannon, with enough mage def and monkfish, I usually get a full invent pretty quick and bank in less than 1 minute with my ring of slaying.

 

 

 

99 def and mage sure helps though.

[JoeDaStudd]

Why not just use a macaw instead of war t? Better herbs means less cannon balls = more gp per kill. With slayer rings and rings of dueling (or house tele then mounted glory) its only 30 seconds banking and you can leave the cannon there.

Oh but you're banking pretty often then?

 

 

 

I don't bank during my tasks. I kill them all in one go.
