I've been away from RuneScape for quite awhile now, & I'm thinking of coming back for 1 month because I have little else to do. I'm coming back souly to do Slayer, nothing else. I'm debating on setups. I have 50m in cash.

 

I'm unsure on whether I should go for a Godsword, or Whip with a D'fire Shield... any suggestions?

I would save a portion of that money to get 68 summoning once you slay enough to get charms for it.

 

With your combat levels and the monsters you'll be fighting given that, I don't think you'd need anything better than a Guthan's Set initially. Maybe invest in a warrior ring or a berserker ring. Whip is a must. Always good to stock up on a cannon and a nice cache of cannonballs if you want to speed things up. A black mask if you don't already have one is also an essential piece of equipment.

 

I'd look into getting a rune defender, as defense is never really much of an issue, unless I'm mistaken. Buying a DFS, given your limited budget, would eat up 73% of your savings and it would take a LONG time to recover that loss.

Both a gs and a dfs aren't worth buying for slayer, I'd say keep the money or spend it on prayer (70 for piety or 71 for deflect melee would be nice).

Get 70 prayer for piety and 68 summoning for a bunyip, don't bother with the godsword or DFS, barrows armour is still perfect for tasks (I use Torag's Plate and Verac's Skirt for tasks that I don't need too much prayer on), make sure you have a whip and defender, and buy a black mask. As soon as possible, make the slayer helmet -- it is the greatest piece of slaying equipment you could possibly have. Buy a berserker ring and a cannon and about 10k cannonballs, buying more as needed. Don't forget dragon boots and barrows gloves. An amulet of fury is really difficult to get right now, so a glory should work. This shouldn't eat up too much money (no more than half the money you say you have), so use some of the rest to buy super sets and other potions and food you might need.

 

I know what I said was kind of scattered, but it works. There's a lot you need for slayer, but it doesn't all have to be expensive.

 

Also, as soon as possible (110 combat and 75 slayer), use Kuradal. She is, without a doubt in my mind, the best slayer master to use.

Yay, come back Duanienub! :D

 

Anyways, I was blinded by delusions of grandeur when you were texting me because I thought you had tonnes of cash. Anyhoos:

 

1. Prayer to 70 = piety = amazing. Do the quest, and the knights waves and you'll be sorted. Maybe even go one step further and show me up by doing Temple at Sentissien.

 

2. 68 Summoning is essential. The bunyip is so worth it. (I can remember a time when I said to you it was useless leveling etc, I was wrong and you were right man).

 

3. Whip + Defender = Best slayer weapon and shield ever. DFS only if you have the cash to spare :P

 

4. Dharoks/Torags Plate and Torags legs/Verac Skirt = best for heavy duty tasks..... Maybe even go with Verac Brassard if you want extra prayer bonuses to piety everything. Oh and make sure to have Karils for any WF or Bloodveld tasks. Makes it so much easier than Black Dhide.

 

5. Prosylite(sp?) Armour is essential too. Maybe try getting a few achievement diaries done, like Fally for extra prayer stuff to help on Abby Spectre tasks.

 

6. Furys are worth it in my opinion, just like barrows gloves. Make sure to do RFD and get them gloves, they make a hell of alot of difference, and Fury is a major good piece of equipment; but with prices being so high maybe go for Glory?

 

7. Rings..... now this is a tricky topic for myself. Ever since I got my fire cape I've been paranoid about dying so I've worn a ring of life religiously since then. However warrior and Zerker both have their advantages and disadvantages. Decide wisely.

 

8. Cannon. Always a good nice little thing to have. They speed up many tasks and give good range exp. If you have money left over get one of these, 5K cballs and top up when you need to.

 

9. Slayer helm, you know the drill. Afterall this is your favourite skill :P No point going for full yet seeing as Hex and Focus are inflating and demand is so high on GE you wont ever get one.

 

10. Super pots. With your stats I think it would be wise to invest in a few super sets. They speed up tasks incredibly, and when used with piety you destroy everything.

 

11. Zamorakian Spear/Sara Sword. This is a choice up to you. Again; both have advantages and disadvantages. If you wana train strength then I believe sara sword leaves D Scim in the dust. And therefore if you get that you eliminate the need for ZS for WF tasks as you have one of the best crush weapons in the game.

 

12. On a side note after all that; if you're feeling lucky why not try and get your mage to 70 and maybe try Jad. Fishing Cape (ut) Is good enough - basically an obby one - but unless you trim for the the 4 prayer bonus try getting a fire cape? Also linked with one of the points above would be to get the highest ardy cape you can as they're good prayer bonus and they're free therefore if you die and lose it it's no worries.

 

I think that's about it matey. Now get back to slayer. I expect to see you working hard to catch up to my 83 slayer! :P <3:

the DFS would only be usefull if you planned to tank monsters like Dark Beasts or Iron Dragons. Other then that, the rune defender is better for the huge accuracy boost.

 

I did slayer in Torag/guthan, rune defender, and a whip for the longest time.
