August 6, 201015 yr Raging nonsense ahead: WHY IN THE [bleep]ING HELL DO I KEEP GETTING THESE GOD AWFUL [bleep]ING TASKS!? WHAT THE [bleep]!? THIS [cabbage] MAKES NO [bleep]ING SENSE! [bleep]! That's better. My last 6 or 7 tasks have gone something like this: abberant spectres(skip), bloodvelds(skip), greater demons(thanks for the easy XP), abberant spectres(skip), bloodvelds(skip), abberant spectres(out of points now, so I cannoned them for a massive loss of money thanks to MTK breaking herbs), nechryaels(skip), steel dragons(out of points again). What the [bleep]ing hell is this [cabbage]? This [cabbage] makes me want to stop slaying all together. :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall:
August 6, 201015 yr You skip abby specs? Are you insane? they one of the msot profitable tasks you can have wiht all the rare herbs they drop. Operation Gold Sparkles :: Chompy Kills :: Full Profound :: Champions :: Barbarian Notes :: Champions Tackle Box :: MA RewardsDragonkin Journals :: Ports Stories :: Elder Chronicles :: Boss Slayer :: Penance King :: Kal'gerion Titles :: Gold Statue
August 6, 201015 yr Author Normally, I'd cannon them, but I'm not really interested in throwing my money in a wood chipper with the way herbs are right now thanks to the MTK glitch.

August 6, 201015 yr If you want money go tds/gwd/dks. Slayer is for getting slayer experience, and all those tasks you got are great tasks.
August 6, 201015 yr Author If you want money go tds/gwd/dks. Slayer is for getting slayer experience, and all those tasks you got are great tasks.I don't do bosses. Never enjoyed it, probably never will. Slayer is both my experience and my money. It's also one of the few fun things in this game. Until I get [cabbage] like this, that is.
August 6, 201015 yr Go to what you consider a good taskCamp itSlayer is for getting slayer experience, not money. Edit:Or alternatively, if you say that slayer gives variety:Take all the good tasks that you like to doCount themAssign each one of them a numberGo to www.random.orgGet a random number between 1 and the number of the monsters you decided are goodFind out what monster the RNG assignedGo to http://runescape.wikia.com/wiki/KuradalFind out how many monsters kuradal gives for your taskUse www.random.org to generate another random number to get the number of kills in your taskDo your task
August 6, 201015 yr My thoughts on your tasks: Abberant spectres: I personally am iffy with them, sometimes I skip, sometimes I do. I never cannon, though. I don't really give a damn about the money if the task bores me. Plus, with the MTK glitch screwing with herb prices... well, I suppose you could just keep the herb drops and make em into potions for personal use, but... not everyone can/wants to do herblore, or use super attack/strengths (I use extremes, so... already stockpiled). Bloodvelds: Again, another somewhat boring, but decent xp, task. I do mutated velds (again, no cannon, but I might start turmoiling them if I ever get another veld task). Only really good for xp and green charms. Greater demons: Decentish xp, and a few crimson charms. Downside is they can be crowded in Kura's dungeon if you're on at the wrong times. Easy enough task though, once you get a spot. Nechryael: Bit more difficult task, but plenty of crimson charms and fairly good xp. Plus, plenty of seed drops and a couple rune boots. Steel dragons: This I know my opinion is a bit skewed on, since I have super antis, but honestly, I enjoyed metal dragon tasks even before I had them :P I know plenty of other people hate/block em, though. Anyway, we all have strings of annoying, irritating, crowded tasks that we really, really don't want to bother with, but... we're kinda stuck doing them anyway if we want to maintain our task streak. All we can do is suck it up and hope for a good task. Eventually. Generally, I try to suck up as many bad tasks as possible, get a nice big pile of slayer points, then I'll start knocking off tasks I don't wanna touch at that time. Of course, there aren't many tasks that I absolutely refuse to do (aquanites I stupidly unlocked, and hellhounds are my current block list, with terror dogs going on there as soon as I get a task), but there are usually a couple that I just "meh, don't wanna bother right now *skip*" Also, all of my money comes from slayer and farming, so I know how that feels. At least you have the ability to try boss hunting, I can't even try with my dialup internet. And yes, it does still exist if you live out in the middle of nowhere.

August 6, 201015 yr I failed to mention that my... random canceling of tasks because "I don't feel like doing it" expands to some of the most profitable tasks that other slayers would likely hit me over the head for canceling :P Such as... spirit mages, any type of strykewyrm, blue dragons, maybe black dragons... well, you get the idea. The only super profitable task I won't skip are abby demons. If I get those, I'll go do something else till it's a better time of day and the crowds die down to do my task :P I also flat out refuse to cancel iron/steel/mithril dragons, or skeletal wyverns. I'll do those every single time I get them. Yes, I'm weird when it comes to metal dragons.
August 6, 201015 yr Author I never cancel irons or miths, but I absolutely hate steels. I cancel blue dragons, too :P. Spiritual mages.. I kill the Saradomin mages in the center of the dungeon. Nice and easy. I'm fine with strykewyrms. Black dragons just means more getting crashed at KBD.
August 6, 201015 yr god, i seem to get something like : good task, good task, skip, skip, skip, good task, fine i'll do it, skip skip skip skip skip OMG skip, good task
August 6, 201015 yr Sounds like slayer isn't your kind of skill. I suggest you stop wasting your time with it, since there are better ways to get XP, GP, and charms. How to Chin Nechyraels for fast XP and profit

August 6, 201015 yr I'll give my opinion as well: Abby specs: I don't like them, but are amazing profit w/o cannon, and you break even with cannon, with amazing slay xp. SO I do them. Velds: Hate em, however, the mutated bloods I thinka re the fastest slayer xp in the game, right? Its honestly amazing how fast the xp is. Sometimes I skip though. Greater: I always skip, not sure why, easily afkable. still. Steels: I do em, I just got a task of 99. Should take me about.... 45 mins. I have all the 99s, and have been playing since 2001.

August 6, 201015 yr Abby specs are great tasks. Easy to afk and if you use kuradal you get like 1m per task cause of 200+ monsters Warlord of Lethality, Member of Silent Ember
August 6, 201015 yr Author XP: Armoured zombies or zombie skeletonsCharms: Waterfiends, Rock lobsters, Scabarites, WyvernsMoney: Boss hunting, merchantingI really hate camping out at one monster for a long time. Variety and not being bored out of my mind > some extra xp/hr. When I need the charms, I'll get them. Until then, I'll build them up through Slayer. I don't do bosses and I've never been one to merchant.

August 6, 201015 yr What kind of variety do you like then, seeing as you dislike those slayer tasks that would vary your grinding of slayer? Mix it up, I never said kill armoured zombies for 200 hours straight. How to Chin Nechyraels for fast XP and profit
August 6, 201015 yr Wow, you're skipping some pretty good tasks. I have to agree with Bladewing; slayer doesn't seem to be your thing. To put it bluntly, [bleep] off.
