Level 78. EDIT: No way I'm reaching 79. :3

 

Is there a good way? I can take a small-ish loss for speed, but something huge, no.

IMO the standout best way to train magic is to burst rock lobsters while using battle robes (from fist of guthix) and staff of light. You get tons of magic and constitution xp, as well as lots of charms - and the cost is much lower than you'd expect; I think something like ~2-3gp/magic xp, though I'm not certain on that.

 

Otherwise, just suck it up and alch :thumbup:

Try maging Abyssal demons. I did that from 96-99 and made a small profit.

What gear/spell are we looking at here? This sounds like something that could be entertaining.

Well, I used Fire surge, Staff of Light, Ahrim's robetop and bottom, Farseer helm, Zamorak book, Infinity boots and Barrows gloves. And Unicorn for healing. But you can definitely survive with Titan + EE for healing.

 

For attack spell, just use the best spell you can use. And it's quite fast as well. I was getting up to 130k exp per hour and I wasn't even paying full attention. But then again, I had surge.

a majority of my experience is from DKs and Barrows. Both have a pretty decent return on your cash investment, but you have to account for supplies other than runes. but keep in mind that DKs isn't as predictable as barrows. if you go to barrows, you can get your runes back, and make cash at the same time. Its not going to get you to 99 in a month, but it will get you some levels while gaining a decent amount of cash and runes.

 

DKs: your money comes from drops, namely warrior ring, breserker ring, dragon hatchet, and dag bones. you lose 100% of the runes you cast (unless you use a staff that has the chance to save runes).

 

barrows: in my experience, i only lost about 10-20% of the runes i put into it (mind and death runes) while gaining bloods and chaos. you can sell the extra runes for cash, or keep them for training later on. And since barrows armor seems to be pretty stable, and more expensive than it once was, the drops you get can go straight into the more expensive methods later on.

Not going for 99, actually probably going to settle with 85 or so.

 

Thanks for the suggestions, keep 'em coming.
