Bursting + summoning question

[JoeDaStudd]

Ok,

 

Now SGS is 77.7m (I brought it for 58.7m) its looking silly keeping about 3/4 of my bank in 1 item when I could easily get 88 summoning with it.

Since titan+SGS is 24 to 44 every 2 minutes (higher then 40 with the special is extremely rare for me) and unicorn alone is 39/42 (13/14*3). 77.8m seems too much for 5+ prayer points every now and then.

 

1. I've estimated it will take about 16k of casts to hit 88 summoning (4.5k crimsons) is my math correct?

2. How bad is void or Dagon'hai compared to ahrims (other items would be void mace, fury, infinity boots and zammy book)?

3. Its about 500 casts per hour right?

4. Which is the best spot; on the u-bend or near the ladder?

5. Golds, greens and possibly blues until 85 then swamp lizards all the way is the best method right?

6. I've estimated the total cost in the region of 35m (25m for the runes, 5m for seconds and 5m for the shards - after swapping/selling them back) is this correct?

 

Anyone wondering I plan on swapping the SGS for ZGS, 16k casts and cash (hopefully in one trade).

 

Any other tips or suggestions are always welcome.

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Joe

2. Anything over 70/80 mage bonus is overkill. If you can get that with dagon-hai, you could use that instead of ahrims without efficiency loss. I think you can get like 50 mage bonus max with void and I haven't seen any tests on that, so I'm not really sure if that would be worth it. I don't think it would hurt much to try it though, just don't go get a void mage helm just for that.

4. I think the u-bend spot got unusable after the safespot update, I heard you have to use the ladder now. I haven't tried it myself yet though.

6. At my level, using the charms costs about 7 gp/xp after having traded in all pouches/charms etc. So, that would be 25m for the runes and like 3m for the actual summoning. You will initially have to spend more on the shards, but you will get a large percentage of that back.

 

All of your other assumptions/statements are correct as far as I know.

False, I used it just a couple days ago.

Okay, then use that spot.

Ok all looks good.

dagon'hai gives me either 88+ magic with 20+ prayer or 79+ and 23+ prayer depending on the cape.

Which cuts out the need for prossy or veracs for the lure really.

 

I have the complete void set so it would be hassle getting parts, but the prayer and magic bonus from dagon'hai looks too good to miss.

 

I've been looking over the number of charms and it seems I might be able to do it with closer to 10k casts which is even better (although I'll get 14k just to be sure).

 

I suppose its just a matter of posting on RSOF and waiting for someone to trade.

 

Thanks for the help and confirmation guys.

 

Without anyone else has more tips or suggestions you can consider this topic closed.

That 3m cost estimate was off by a lot actually, I have no idea how I got to 3m. It's about 12m (at 7 gp/xp, might be a bit higher for you cause of lower level pouches).
