slayer dart vs iron dragons

[curmudgeony]

How well does slayer dart work against iron dragons? Would I be better off with a wave or a surge spell?

At your level you could probably try something better then slayer dart. If you unlocked Claws of Guthix you can use those. If you wanted to do combat magic then might i suggest CoG the Dag Rex. If you have a Void Mace it works even better.

He said Iron Dragons, not Dagannoth Kings. My advise is to have a look, I'm fairly sure Chaos Bolt, or even Fire Wave is better then Slayer dart, cost wise and experience wise. I've got no experience with surge, but if it gives double base experience of Fire Wave it would be cheapest and best exp/h at Iron Dragons. Slayer Dart is basically garbage with modern prices, it's 400 gp for a Death Rune, or 450 gp for a Blood (Prices might not be accurate though), but Fire Wave is much better exp, hits higher and is more accurate. So yeah, Fire Surge if its double the exp of Fire wave, or Fire Wave otherwise.

Yes i know he was saying Iron Dragons. I was giving a better place to use combat magic that actually makes profit more often then at Iron Dragons. And the first 2 sentences were talking about the dragons, it wasn't until the 3rd that i suggested something else.

I tried slayer dart against irons and I can tell you fire bolt works better

It would be nice if you included some more details about the questions. Do you have to kill them for slayer, want exp or are you looking for profit? If you have them as a task then use surge spells or CoG. For exp and profit, i wouldn't mage them. You should try aviansies or dagganoth Rex as suggested if you are looking for those two ;).

Yes i did look at his stats (and i know what i'm talking about), Claws of Guthix only requires 60 magic to cast and 80 magic to charge, and along with that they lower defense which will help kill the dragons faster. I never said to use fire surge, nor did i mention any kind of surge spell in my post. And with the void mace you get a 10% boost when casting spells with it. So using that while charged you have a max of 33, which is quite good as it helped me kill aviansies faster then those ranging. Much better then the level 55 Slayer Dart.

 

The Slayer Dart is really only useful for those with low magic levels.
