My friend and I want to go to dks for money and fun, and got some questions:

 

1. Is mage really necessary for rex? Since my friend's mage lv is quite low, it really takes time for him to get a decent mage lv for maging rex, so is it possible for both of us hybird the remaining 2 boss, and leave rex alone?

 

2. Can hybids share the mages' loots and vice versa? Cuz it seems that they are far apart and I always think that they can't share each other's loots.

 

3. For hybirds, can I replace sgs with balmug? Which range wepand cape (I got sw cape) should hybirds use?

 

4. Usually how long does each trip (duo) last? And what would be the approximate profit?

 

thank you

1.yes

2.no

3.use a whip

4.around 2 hours, maybe 2m profit without a yak.

1. Having someone maging is the only practical way to do DKs. You can safespot prime away from rex, and if you're fighting supreme from the west rex usually can't see you, but going in between will almost certainly get his attention. There are all sorts of crazy sneaking by tricks, since while each king has a large wander range their vision at any particular point in time isn't so great. Realistically though, you really do want someone maging, because tanking rex is no fun at all.

 

If you insist on attempting to hyb without a mage, you'll need to go up the ladder a lot when rex gets on you. Sneak around the north rim of the island to go between supreme and prime. It's almost certainly a bad idea.

 

2. Even if they could, you'd still screw up lures and safespots from one trying to retrieve the other's drops. Even telegrab is not far enough for the mage to take the hybrid's loot on supreme. Besides which, mages incur higher expenses for higher returns, and generally dislike hybs taking part of that.

 

3. Use whip. Use SW cape. Accumulator if you're lazy while using a crossbow. For spec, ee and sgs both work nicely. Guthan's is useful on supreme for heals.

 

4. Depends on a lot of factors for both. Solo hyb was maybe 1m/hr without yak last I tried. Duo gets you faster kills but then spawn times play a big role.

Then how about I solo rex myself? Are my states ok? How much can I earn per trip if I solo rex / duo rex (my friend will get 80mage and his other cb states are similiar to mine).

You can solo fine. Use charge and claws so you can't get crashed easily. You should average a bit under 1m/hr and stay for 40-50 minutes, at a rough estimate.

 

Duo mage works, but unless you want to fight for a high population world, you'll be severely limited by spawn times.

 

Big thing: I suspect you two might actually be able to duo tribrid on a slow enough world.

 

Oh, and zerkers have gone down, so uh... cut my 1m/hr figure down a bit.

if he only lasts 40-50 minutes while maging, he's doing something horribly wrong. With a Unicorn, you can stay there easily 3-4+ hours.

Meh. Am I like the only one who likes using sharks and banking bones with a tort? Sure you lose a few kills, but you get much more constant income.

I wouldn't be surprised if the answer is yes :P

Nah I know troj does that sometimes, and animacy almost always.

If you are going with someone else, it means no hassle for doors so bankings like <10 mins.

But I usually just stay for a couple hours.
