Green Charms?

[gorgoroth]

I've alwasys found green charms to be one of the most inaffective ways to train summoning with due the the large ammount of shards needed for the pouches which makes them rather costly. At the current moment i have all the supplies and charms bankes to get me to 80 summoning as well as the additional charms needed to get 84. If i include the green charms into the equation i should have 85 summoning banked but i can't seem to find them worht the cost. If anyone could suggest a green charm pouch that is cost effecient as well as the level needed to make them i would aprecciate it. I have a current goal of 90 summoning if that helps.

Making Fruit Bats is probably the best way to use greens at any level past them. But to check how much you make look at these 3 options:

 

 

 

• [*:32t1s8sm]How much you get back for trading them back in Gu'tanoth.
   
  [*:32t1s8sm] How much you get back for selling the pouches on the GE
   
  [*:32t1s8sm] How much you get back for trading in the Scrolls on the GE

 

 

 

After you figure out which gives more GP back use that method.

It all depends on how much you value summoning exp really. Some quick calculations I just did assuming pouch swapping:

 

 

 

-Fruit bats: 8 gp/xp

 

-Unicorns: 15 gp/xp

 

-Barraging rock lobs: 22 gp/xp (only counting crimsons)

Well at cheapest 8fp/xp still seems a bit much. Using golds (even though slightly slower) seems much more worth while.

I guarantee you that it is a good idea to use those charms. Say you had 1000 green charms banked. Making Fruit Bats loses you 39 shards (when you swap back in), equaling 975gp loss plus the cost of a banana and a pouch, for a total loss of 1006gp per pouch for 121.2xp.

 

 

 

To get the 121,200 xp you give up by not using greens, you'll need 372 crimson charms. Assuming you get them from waterfiends (which are about 105 crimsons/hour at maxed melee with void and piety), you'll need to spend 3.5 hours camping waterfiends. In addition, you will lose 50 shards per pouch (when you swap back in), equaling 1250gp loss plus the cost of a granite (500g) and a pouch, for a total loss of 1425gp per pouch.

 

 

 

Fruit Bats: 1,006,000 coins cost, 121.2k xp.

 

Granite Lobsters: 530,100 coins cost, 121.2k xp, 3.5 hours.

 

 

 

Money saved: 475,900 coins

 

Time spent: 3.5 hours

 

 

 

Money saved/hour: 136k coins/hour

 

 

 

So if you make over 136k coins/hour (which you should be able to!), use your greens.

Fruit Bat, anything else really isn't worth it imo.

Thanx for this. I think thats since i have about 3k greens in my bank now i should use them. Also since i'm going to use alot of fruit bats in the future i might aswell make some of my own.
