AuburnFury Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 I was wondering which i should do for these, i've just got 50 of them for a slayer task (Oh, boy! ¬.¬) and i want to do it as fast as possible, i have a focus sight, and would be willing to buy a hexcrest. Range - 73 - I was thinking about broad bolts and a rune crossbowMage - 73 - Slayer dart? I really don't know which would be faster, please help. Cheers guys :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quyneax Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 As fast as possible would be melee, with piety, fsh, super pots and a leaf-bladed sword. I think.

Championfurydelta123 Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 MAge using fire bolt while wielding Chaos Gauntlets from the Family Crest quest. Thats how I killed metal dragons when I was lower lvl.

Knight_Zaros Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 Mage will definitely be faster than range, especially 70 something range. They are rather weak vs magic. Obviously there is the cost with magic however. And using a decent magic spell will be considerable to melee speeds. Melee with top gear and boosts would still be a not faster though. I never suggest ranging metals especially steels till at least 80+ range, otherwise its just way to slow.

Nomrombom Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 Tip it's own guide suggest melee, and the rune count seems to skyrocket with metal dragons. Use a sara sword or a godsword for the crush bonus, with antifires. PM me for fitocracy invite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
12pure34 Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 if you want to melee them, super pots + leaf bladed spear is the way to go. But I do suggest just fire bolting with chaos gauntlets. Slayer dart isn't a bad spell either, a little more costly but very efficient much alike. In my opinion --> Magic > Melee > Ranged. Get a hexcrest and turn your slayer helmet into a full slayer helmet. They aren't that expensive and well worth it :) Bring a BoB and only a few anti fire potions to bank those 50 dragon bones + charms/good drops. Pays for the runes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
