Hi guys, I am thinking of starting to slay again a bit, just to get my range level to 80 and my slayer level to 75 (or thereabouts).

My stats are in the sig below, so can anyone think of any suggestions for equipment or any other levels I need to get first before I start slaying?

 

Also, Slayer master do you suggest I use? I'm currently using Chaeldar.

 

I have just over 20m cash. :)

 

Thanks guys! :D

Focus sight/fsh of course. A cannon. Unholy book (maybe bss if you want to tank stuff). I assume you have a rune crossbow and black hide, those will do fine.

3. "So you up for NAFTA?"

4. "That went exactly how I wanted it to."

Thanks :)

 

I have an Unholy Book, black d'hides and cannon. What bolts should I use, and which tasks should I cannon?

I can only help with the bolts.

Addy bolts are wonderful, cheap and hit very hard.

However, broad bolts hit the same and are at least 2x cheaper. I can't use them, but you can. If I'm wrong and you can't, then addy bolts are just fine.

Broad bolts. Cannon everything you can, pretty much.

So:

 

Rune C'bow w/ Broad Bolts, Unholy Book

Cannon

 

Focus Sight/Full Slayer Helm

Ava's Accumulator

Black D'hide Body

Black D'hide Legs

Barrows Gloves

Snakeskin Boots

 

Does this sound about right? Is it worth getting Ranger's Boots and/or Archer's Ring?

And which familiar and what inventory setup?

 

Thanks everyone :)

Yeah, that looks good. Get an archer's ring, but not ranger boots. Because you're only level 70 summoning, stick with a bunyip for now. As for inventory, just bring a few ranging potions, a few prayer potions, and a little food. Consider using a blessed spirit shield on tasks you get hit hard on. Use the 10% ranged prayer. Always use the best slayer master you can. When you get to Kuradal, use knives/darts with a ferocious ring on greater demons.

 

EDIT: Use an EE for specs if you have one. If you don't, consider getting one.

No, an ammy of range will serve you well, but if you feel the need to spend some money then a fury is probably one of the best things you can buy. Also just be forewarned, at lower slayer levels cannoning isn't as sustainable as it is later on, especially if you get a bad (For cannoning) task streak. So if you are running low on cash, just stop cannoning for a few tasks and come back to is when you can.

Wrong. Fury >>>>>>>>> ranged ammy, especially since you'll be using the 10% ranged prayer. Amulets of fury are one of those must-have items.

 

I would say that any task you get hit really hard on, you could slap on a Soul Wars cape or some other prayer enhancing gear and just pray melee.

 

This. Broad bolts are very cheap, so it's okay to forgo the accumulator on tasks where you'd need a protection prayer.
