Overloads

[wtf]

Should I sell my bank to be able to buy overloads and then go to corp?

[Hajutze]

Um ... no.

[wtf]

reason?

[Grimy_Bunyip]

never gamble everything you have, ever

 

unless of course it's one of those card games where you can rig it so you always win

 

but i'm pretty sure you don't know any magical way of owning corp beast, or you wouldn't be asking this :P

[Clay_More12]

If you sell your bank, then how can you go to Corp if you're bankrupt after getting Overloads?

[wtf]

So let's say I get about 10m extra and get overloads, what should I do with them?

should I do corp or go solo bandos or something.

CORP WOOP

Overloads alone would be pretty useless at corp. You might want to keep an extra 20M for a ZS, some brews, super restores, etc.

Overloads are very good for corping <_<

 

But my personal advice is make like 50m more or something at GWD and then get overloads.

I would only get overloads if you have enough to get 99 herblore at once with it. Making extreme sets on their own, or just a few overloads for usage (and not xp) are both not very efficient. However, if you make 3.5k overloads for 90-99 (this is including making the extremes required for overloads), you will pay roughly 30 gp/xp, which is of course expensive, HOWEVER, you will end up with USEFUL pots, in stead of nothing (when doing brews and reselling, which is also something around 30 gp/xp including reselling) or something pretty useless (super antifires, spec restores, extreme mage pots). (spec restores are actually very useful, but not in the amounts that you will produce when you get 99 off it (40k+)

If you are 99 att/str/def, 95+ pray, 90+ sum (maxed melee or not people are going to judge you on your combat level first and being under 135 isn't a good place to be), 90+ mage, go for it

I made the same choice as you are thinking about, and atm I'm working on my 5th sigil.

I concur with this, although I wouldn't make 3.5k overloads. I am personally making about 2700 overloads, and for the rest of the experience I am making extreme attack and extreme strength potions for use on slayer tasks. Overloads are very expensive and you shouldn't use them unless you benefit from doing so.

I meant that attacking the corporeal beast with nothing but a couple overloads in your inventory (no armor, weapons, etc) would be pretty pointless. I was making a joke about the OP wanting to sell his/her bank.

 

Ha-ha.

[Bladewing]

Oh. I missed the word "alone".

Extreme attacks and strengths together cost over 20k and give you 470 (?) experience. That's more gp/xp than overloads. In both methods, you get a useful pot back, however in the case of extreme attacks and strength, you are paying more and you aren't even getting the defence boost, let alone ranging or magic (in case you would use them, which is, I admit, rarely).

I assume you don't use overloads for slaying because you don't ilke the -500 LP effect of it, but as someone who has been slaying with them for quite some time (90-95 slayer) I can tell you that it isn't any problem whatsoever.

no way

[Bladewing]

I use extremes on basically all tasks but metal dragons, where I use overloads.
