Picking up greens and golds

[NastyJenny]

Allways Crimsons and Blue obviously. Green/Gold depends of my inventory space (8000+ of both of those laying in bank that i dont use)

[xpx]

It takes less then half a second to pick up a charm. This is almost like the people who go on about not picking up coins because it "takes too long". I seriously can't believe people are that damn lazy/impatient.

 

At any rate, I totally await the day Jagex comes out with some summoning update that uses gold/green charms en masse.

You should try slaying with rapier/overload/turmoil, surely that will show how long picking up stuff takes(while you 2 hit everything).

I'm 99 summoning and I don't pick up any charms anymore, seeing as it's cheaper to buy the pouches you need rather then making them.

Same, don't care about summoning xp anyway.

[fishy227]

I tend to pick up all charms, only occasion I can't is when I'm doing a slayer task that is in a multi-combat zone,( like fire giants, blood velds, nechs, dags, etc. ).

 

From the Double exp weekend, i got 99 summoning, using all my blue/crimson, I ended with 13.8M Exp. I had 98 Slayer then, now i have 99 with almost 14.5M Exp, and here is my charm pile....

With these i can always go for ranks.

[Viv]

I pick 'em all up too - anything else would just be a waste and a sign of arrogance: "Oh look, I'm high Summoning, I don't need the gold and green charms cause they don't give enough exp."

i know that 89-99 slayer got me 1-92 summoning and half of that was b4 they added charms to abbies......

 

i picked up and used all b4 99 summoning now i only pick up crimsons and blues...probably not gunna train summoning tho just collect them if no invent ill drop crims =p

 

gold charms are a pain to use but they are very cheap exp

 

greencharms are useless they were always a pain to use and expensive

 

i leave those on ground 90% of the time because if i train summon after 99 i want it too be fast not slow.

[Star.]

I'm level 68 summoning and only pick up green/crimson/blues. I don't even knoooooow what to do with these.

[Dexek]

I pick up all charms provided I have space. This doesn't mean I use the golds/greens, but I am anticipating a posible update of a new familar that greens may be worthwhile for. :thumbup:

[stonewall337]

99 summon, only pick up blue most tasks, and crims on tasks which drop a lot such as abbies. Most of the time I make pouches now its if they aren't buying right away on the GE, or I need scrolls, mainly steel titans.

[Bladewing]

Now that I'm 99, I only pick up crimsons and blues. If I ever get the urge to train summoning past 13m xp, it's not going to be with golds or greens. I don't like training the skill, and it's rather costly.

[Bassy]

I pick them all up. Should i ever need another space I'll only drop Golds usually. I only do so really because for some reason I've confidence in Jagex that one day there will be a use for ridiculous amounts of golds and greens. :unsure:

[C110]

On most tasks I pick em all.

[langer]

pick em all...there might just be an update to use gold more efficiently

[muggiwhplar]

dungeoneering needs to give a charm-grabber update like the bonecrusher

[michel555555]

I've got 97 summon or so banked at the moment, but no cash for shards or seconds. I still pick up every charm though because if they ever come out with a summoners guild i get the feeling that they will add another use for charms. Maby even using them as currency since they are so coin like anyway.

[xSxqPowerx]

I pick up blues, and usually crimson. Rarely green/gold. 15m summoning experience already.

[crashNburn]

I'll always pick up charms with two exceptions:

 

1 - the charm is so far it'd waste a lot of time to pick it up

2 - I'm on a task that requires an annoying amount of attention or input; eg. cannoning mutated bloodveld with a titan

 

If either of those is the case I avoid golds/greens.

[wioneo]

I pick 'em all up too - anything else would just be a waste and a sign of arrogance: "Oh look, I'm high Summoning, I don't need the gold and green charms cause they don't give enough exp."

 

Arrogance is bliss.

[Phazon]

Hello, my summoning is 37 and I was wondering what I should make to level it up more

[Jehosaphat]

I'm at 84 summoning, and I only gother picking up greens/crims/blues. Because gold charms, while useful, just give XP too slowly for me to bother with them.

[lotmein2]

99 summon, only pick blue/crims, not worth the time lost tbh.

 

You don't lose any time picking up charms.

 

And even if you did the XP you gain is definitely worth the time spent.

Xp gain past 99? Don't see why you would care about that unless you're maxed or something.

 

I find the amount of 99 summoners that still pick up all charms surprisingly large, I did that for a few days after 99 but then I was like nah it's pretty useless anyway, can't be bothered to do it anymore.

Well yeah, there's no point in training past 99 unless you're maxed. There's also no point in wasting summoning XP you can gain after you're maxed.

 

Obviously if you don't care about XP past 99 at all there's no point in picking them up at all, but if you DO care about XP past 99 all charms are worth picking up.

[Ermy]

I pick them all up on slayer tasks, usually gauges how many kills I have left.

Summoning is still one of the easier skills to get impressively ranked in, which is why I currently pick everything up. No lies I haven't actually used any greens or golds in a very long time though. They make a nice collection in the meantime.

 

Many people with 99 summoning are also maxed combat, so if you're training at all, you probably do care somewhat about xp after 99, or you were lazy and didn't max slayer early enough. :P

 

My reasoning in picking up every charm is that I value summoning experience, and it really can be done with minimal time wastage. Kill something, attack the next, after each attack move a few steps towards the drop and you'll have it in no time. It's a bit tedious, but since RS is tedious it doesn't strike me as too unreasonable.

Exactly how I see it. I was quite surprised to see I was rank 590 summoning, when I used all my charms at the xp weekend (went from lvl 98 to 99 and up, 15.1M xp)
