I've killed Skeletal Wyverns before, but after getting a task of 78 and seeing the price of the bones, I've realized that I need to rethink my method a bit.

 

My usual slayer equipment is:

 

Slayer Helm

Proselyte Plate

Verac's Skirt

Abyssal Whip

Rune Defender

Amulet of Fury

Soul Wars Cape

Dragon Boots

Barrows Gloves

Berserker Ring

 

I already plan on replacing the defender with mind shield -- anything else would be suicide. Will proselyte give enough defence, or will I need something like Torag's plate (I plan on pietying the entire task and have 93 defence)? Also, will a tortoise of monkfish and an EE be enough to fill up on bones and other drops, or will I need more healing than that? Rough estimates are fine, I just need somewhere to start on equipment for this task.

proselyte will be sufficient, so will a full load of monkfish if you're pietying

i recommend NOT praying protect melee, only 1/3 of their attacks are melee

another 1/3 is ranged, and 1/3 for dragonfire

 

the protection prayer really isnt worth it unless you're running low on food

Didn't plan on using protection prayers anyway, just piety.

 

Any idea about how many prayer potions I'll need to take to fill up my inventory/tortoise with bones? Again, a rough estimate is fine.

oof... if you piety flashed you could get away with a single prayer potion

otherwise hmm let me double check

 

so you have +29 prayer, roughly havlign ur prayer drain rate

u drain 1 prayer point every 1.8 seconds normally, so 1000 ppoints per hour

 

with turmoil and overloads i get about 120-150 wyvern kills per hour,so lets just assume 120 wyvern kills per hour

lets also assume a war tortoise... so... you can get ~40 kills before banking?

350 ppoints before banking

minus 75 ppoints rough estimate of ur prayer lvl

275 ppoints... ~10 doses of prayer potion

 

so 3 ppots(4) should be enuf

Thanks, I didn't expect an answer quite so involved. I'll have to write down/remember this information, will come in handy in the future. Task should go without any real problems now.
