Mio Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 To cut it short and simple, I have 75 range at the moment, and 10m to burn. I'm looking to get a high level in range (85+) I'm considering spending it all on Grey chins and camping out at ape atoll for a few hours a day without void armour. Spending 7.7m on 30k grey chins and the rest on ranging potions and prayer pots. But my question is, how far would 30k Grey chins get me? Is it even worth me doing it? Thanks.

Quyneax Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 30k chins... If you use 2k/hr, and it's 2/3 the xp of using reds (which is 300k/hr, so 200k/hr), you'd get 3m xp. Up to you if that's worth it.

MstrMonopoly Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 I'd say it's worth it. Chinning is really the only efficient way to train range, though I do enjoy me some range slayer once in a while. I piety the fool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mio Posted July 26, 2010 Author Share Posted July 26, 2010 Hmm, 3m exp? Should get me roughly to level 88.. Which is pretty worth it. I can always range slay inbetween chinning for money chin money.. Thanks for the reponses. I'll chin :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FIREWORKS Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 His calculations are wrong. At 75 ranged you're not going to get 300k xp/h with red chins, so you're not going to get 200k with gray one's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pwn_4_free Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 Get 85 ranged then use red chins. People do it this way for a reason :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight_Zaros Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 I'm 89 range and have never chinned once. It is a bit slower than say melee training but keep in mind melee training has you training 3 stats typically depending on how you look at it. I say if you put some dedication to it 85+ range without chins is easy. Heck you can profit most places you camp and can still bring some decent exp in. I mean I dont always agree with everyone, but some people want the fastest, easiest exp over having fun in game. So thats up to you.

I mean I dont always agree with everyone, but some people want the fastest, easiest exp over having fun in game. So thats up to you. I agree with you here. As a little mini-goal, I ranged 3k blue dragons at the enclaves for d bones and hides and got 75 prayer, 82 crafting, and 87 ranged out of it. I enjoyed the entire process. Sure it wasn't fast or the most efficient thing I could have done, but I actually quite liked the whole process. My next minigoal is 95 ranged at avies and using the bars on smithing :rolleyes: Also:Yeah, I wouldn't recommend chinning till at least 80-85, just range slay, cannon abby specs, kill aviansies ,or dart yaks. Fixed. Something to fill my sig with until I find a replacement.Also check out my blug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mio Posted July 27, 2010 Author Share Posted July 27, 2010 Hmm, I kind of like the idea of cannoning abby spec's.. But reading alot of guides and videos on Chinning, I will leave it until a later level.. For the time being I will range slay and cannon random things. :) Thanks again guys.
