So, coming off the 99 magic vs. 99 range topic, i decided to go for 99 range over mage. I was looking for some suggestions for how to train my range.

 

 

*note* please dont suggest Aviansies because i done too many of them getting to 81 lol. Also if u suggest slayer please list which tasks are rangeable and which arent. Please keep in mind i only have 20m tops to spend on gear atm.

 

EDIT: Also i have the crystal bows recharge price to 180k though im not sure if its worth using for general training.

Current Setup:

Helm of Neitiznot

Amulet of Glory

Black D'hide Top

Black D'hide Legs

Snakeskin boots

Barrows Gloves

Accumulator

Rune c'bow

Unholy Book / Spirit Shield

Broad Bolts

.

Do chinchompas. You won't need to spend anything on new gear, and it's the quickest option. You might not be able to buy it all in one go with 20m, but by the time you use up your chins, you should have money to buy more if you do dailies/farming/etc. Without merchanting, my cashpile grows about 6-9m per week just off dailies and farming. Keep that in mind.

 

Also, there's nothing wrong with taking a break and making more money. MAybe do some range slayer when you are out of chins, of rangeing boss monsters?

I was thinking about doing this but i've never chinned before so i have no clue how many p pots ill need, how many chins to buy, what gear to use or anything...any suggestions u can give me here?

Thats what i was going to say, but not from experience.

I have never chinned either, but i already know thats how im gonna do it. I know its super fast exp, and i know more or less what to do. When i go to do it, i will look at a guide. I suggest you do the same :)

Bedman's guide is good. Basically if you use any setup, it'll work. It's extreme straightforward.

 

Oh, and use greys, not reds.

i think i might get 90 through slayer then 99 through chins is this a good or bad idea?

Sounds good to me. Although remember, there are slayer tasks you can chin (nechs), and try to cannon all the time (kalphites, scarabites, fire giants, etc).

Should i trade in my glory for the range boost of the range ammy or just keep my glory?

Keep the glory, you won't even notice the difference.

K so this is my slayer setup

 

FSH

Glory

Accumulator

Blk d'hide top and legs

Snakeskin boots

barrows gloves

rune c'bow

obby shield / spirit shield

broad bolts

 

 

not sure what to put in the ring slot yet though

Use zammy book if you can get it.

 

And for ring, if archer's isn't too expensive, or if you have access to MA Rings. Otherwise, RoW, RoL, or Duelling Ring.

i bought the archers ring to go in my ring slot. One final question, would it be worth it to sacrafice the melee def of blk d'hide for the higher range bonus and mage def of karils?

I'd buy both. Use karils when you need karils, use black dhide otherwise. Karils is really only if you're fighting something with a magic attack. In all other cases, you should use black dhide. If I was to choose, however, I would not buy karils for range slaying. I'd rather buy a few more cannonballs.
