Maximusa Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 I must fit into this category - Cannon noob who cant afford good armour and prayer abuser who drinks too much weed? aka - Uses best slayer master for cannon, uses cannon for nearly all tasks, wears either dragon chain for personal prestige or prayer gear to annihilate, whip, uses tormoil/ss/block prayers, drinks extremes or overloads and healer/yak/steel titan. I not too sure I agree with those categories. Especially the glory guy. Poor guy... Probably just prefers the teles on it and doesnt wish to use up inventory space just for a tiny boost of a fury or doesnt see the point of the huge extra cost. Btw where the hell is the godsword noob who cant afford a whip and resorts to lending. :razz: I see plenty of them.

Knitewulf Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 There's tons of type of players when it comes to slayer. The newb one doesn't even seem like a noob one. Sorry he can't afford Bandos? I'm neither of those 3. Wheres the range or mage slayer? barrows slayer? etc etc. 61,358th to 99 range on May 23rd, 2010.100,927th to 99 def on February 13th, 2011.

Beloved Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 I am fine if there is just one huge thread with the types of players, with the correct information of course. I mean it is thoughtful for the OP to post a thread, but unfortunately most of the information are incorrect.Well, in life, you might find that generalisations are generally wrong. Of course, but if done right the stereotypes can be entertaining. Do you not agree?O i fullheartedly agree. I'm just saying we shouldnt be looking at whats defined as "pro" or "noob", but rather what *you* think is. That's the discussion value i was looking for earlier, but the op didn't seem to agree.

Viv Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 This slayer generally wears a glory, a fighter torso, and a rune defender. No matter what you say to him, he will defend that glory is superior to the fury, fighter torso is better than a bcp, and that the rune defender outstrips the dfs. There's no use arguing with these people- They'll ignore what you say and start citing numbers and such. But that's fine. The defender is better then the dfs...this. And your missing the guy in prossy plate+v skirt, who pietys every task because he would rather spend all his money on skills+ppots then bandos.HI!@@@@ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squisher_33 Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 1. rune def is better than dfs, idk why you would argue that 2. most "pro slayers" use summoning also, anyone without an iron or steel titan isnt a true power slayer id add the cannon-o-holic like myself or perhaps a step above the pro slayer is the powerslayer who uses everything for speed, we cannon tasks even in single combat just for that boost of speed no matter how much people say "waste of money" id also add the "pray everything" this guy uses either prossy + sw, bandos + sw, or prossy + fc and simply prays + turmoils every single task he does, not necesarily powerslaying but simply prayer for everything, this guy will argue prayer > eating food or using bunyip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goldenjkered Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 Rune Defender > Dragonfire Sheild, I think most people will agree with that. If you have a high defense level, then higher defensive armour isn't needed, there fore bandos isn't really better than a fighter torso.

Grimy_Bunyip Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 Of course, but if done right the stereotypes can be entertaining. Do you not agree?stereotypes are only funny if they're true.the two recent threads have way too many holes >_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Triquos Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 Well sometimes I use bandos but I've given up using it because I have fighter torso (who needs a few more defence points when you have a pony to heal you?). And the +2 str bonus from tassets doesn't really help me much. So 45M+ is really a waste for me imo, and I have 18.3M slayer exp, I should know. If you wanna waste money on a few extra strength bonus points, go ahead, I just think bandos is overrated for its price when fighter torso+unicorn can do the same job. Also I don't know why on earth people use the dragonfire shield so much. I see people using it at dark beasts praying. it may be 2 str bonus more than a rune defender, but you're missing out on, what, +19 attack bonus? Pretty stupid imo, you might as well be wearing a strength ammy and lose as much attack bonus as humanly possible. DFS I think should only be used on dragon tasks. It's the reason I keep selling it whenever I buy it because I hardly ever use it over a rune defender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, why does the "noob slayer" have a firecape, and the pro slayer doesn't? So many flaws, and this stereotypical fashion isn't even accurate. You can see somebody who's gotten 99 slayer using a noob setup. Does it make them a noob? No. It makes them somebody who doesn't need 75m in armor just to kill simple tasks.
