Just got 78 slayer, and I'm wondering wether to make Kuradal assign them or not.

 

Stats are in sig. I want their drops, but are they worth doing with my levels?

 

Also, if you vote/say yes, could you suggest gear/setup/inv for killing them?

I bought the ability to kill them form Kuradal because I wanted to enjoy the full spectrum of slayer, but I ended up blocking them because they were so long to kill.

aquanites arent as hard as many think, as they pray against them. Do NOT PRAY MAGE if you are fighting them, they will disable it and deal double damage in that attack. Just wear good magic defense armor, and have some sort of healing familiar, and youll do just fine.

They're out of the way, give below-average exp, and their drops are mediocre. I personally don't find their charms to be any good either, but that might have more to do with luck than anything else. As someone else mentioned, they are easy to kill, so that's not really an issue but still...I personally don't enjoy them.

i unlocked them and i thoroughly enjoy them, one of my favourite tasks ( only one here i think)

 

just give them a go and see what you think, just use a z spear and prayer and the whole task will be done within 2 bunyips

 

also i dont see how a 900k drop sucks...

It's not called a Compensation Longsword for nothing.

I've sent a 12k combat mission to have Aiel assassinated (poor bastard isn't even Pincers-tier difficulty).

still i found the xp decent for slayer and its not like the OP has the stats to go and make tons of money at gwd etc.

 

also i only get them one in 15 tasks so its not that common, and ring of slayer telies you right there

Kuradal's task list is pretty good all around, so her "worst" tasks tend not to be blatantly terrible, unlike lower-level slayer masters who can assign crap like zygomites or fever spiders.

I've had lots of good and informative responses here, so thanks to you all.

 

What I'll end up doing is going there trying a couple of methods off task. Now I'm ranging, then I will try z spear.

 

So far ranging I don't find them too bad. And on task slayer helm will make it even easier. I'm a bit different from a lot of rs players, as I don't treasure fast xp/efficiency over having a good time.

 

So - undecided. Yet.

terrible xp

terrible drops

terrible charms

hit annoyingly hard

comparatively, annoyingly high defence

 

why would you unlock them

 

This. And more.

 

Agreed. And the fact that too many of my friends have also unlocked them only to block them. I'm not risking wasting my valuable 4K points :3

Reacting impulsively and saying what's on your mind feels oh so good.. for a little, until you realize you just started WWIII.

Because you're you....just because most people hate them, doesn't mean everyone does. You're part of that group of people that actually like them. Crazy idea, right?

 

 

If you look at time, xp, drops, charms, and difficulty, they're horrible from an efficiency standpoint, and not worth doing.

However, you should always at least try them yourself (off task, don't unlock them unless you know you want to) and see if you like them or not.

 

If you enjoy them, then fine, unlock them and go crazy

Personally I unlocked them. Then I found out how long it is. (About length of ranging 100 steel drags) and you can't cannon them.

 

Then again I have a short attention span with this kind of stuff...

 

I'd beat Kuradal (at ~Nomad's power) to get her to never assign them again...

[hide=A funny conversation]Me:Have u wondered how my brassard, which leaves my chest bare, give about the same def as ur pile of rocks?

Friend:Hahaha

Friend:Maybe you are just good at blocking with your shoulder?

Me:Ahahahahaha[/hide]Rare drops: 4 D legs, 1 D skirt

Barrows items: 2 Verac's helms, 1 Dhorak's Greataxe, 1 Dhorak's platelegs, 2 Karil's leathertops, 1 Karil's crossbow, 1 Guthan's chainskirt
