99 Mage...

[Grogthurk]

What are some semi-decent ways to get to 99 Magic?

 

I'm looking for a generally low cost way. I will make the money irregardless, but would like to avoid massssssive spending.

 

Any ideas?

[Bows]

I heard stringing gold amulets was a good way a few months back - and relatively cheap too. Though I'm not too sure if that's still the case.

Hunter Kits.

 

Lunar spell book. Use i think its a mud staff or elemental staff.

 

all u pay for is the astral runes.

 

If u can handel unpacking all these hunter kits i think u make a small profit.

 

or u can just use them as junk

 

AFK...+ semi cheap+ good patience = 99 magic for u my friend

rex and barraging/bursting lobs are the only methods id consider

This.

 

The only time I would not consider Rex is if I had 85 dg and a yak, or some other equivalent.

 

The only time I would not consider Rock Lobsters is if I had 99 summoning AND 99 hp.

Slow as hell, but if you really don't want to spend.

 

Alching profits

Rock lobsters can get you a unicorn on 99 mage, so that's good. Rex profits a bunch. Get a dagganoth task for the ultimate anticrash, as you don't have wolper/xmage.

What are some average gp/xps for said methods?

If you want to afk a bit, I'd suggest String Jewelry (the method I've been using the past 4 levels, closing in on 5). You can actually combine String Jewelry and Hunter Kit together to increase your xp/hr. Both spells only cost the cost of two astrals (if you have a mud staff), and I can't remember the xp/hr, but I believe both spells combined was a little over 130k xp/hr.

 

If you have the money, go ahead and burst rock lobs, but that's very costly, yet will get mage, hp, and summoning xp.

I actually hate combat maging for the most part. Just buy all the stuff on the ge for string?

Yes, make sure you're on the Lunar spellbook, and buy two astrals per UNSTRUNG gold amulet (they have the same name, so make sure it's the unstrung one). You click the spell once, and it'll string each gold amulet one by one until they're all strung in your inventory.

 

If you combine Hunter Kit, withdraw 14 gold amulets, and then click String Jewelry. Hover over the Hunter Kit spell, and once you see 2 runes being used, click the spell, once you see the rune count go down by 4, then click it again, and repeat every 4 runes. You'll run out of inventory space to cast Hunter Kit about the time you run out of gold amulets.

 

Remember, String Jewelry takes 80 magic, whilst Hunter Kit only takes 71.

I trained 94-96 magic with Stun and Alching at the same time--150k per hour, and it cost me ~5m. so a little more than 4,1 gp/xp.

 

I hear that you can string jewellery and make hunter kits at the same time for more xp than either alone, and seeing how hunter kits are already excellent xp...(although, it is expensive (mostly the hunter kit part))

rex is positive (probably like 10 gp/xp gained); lobs are expensive (~10gp/xp?) but give you summ xp too

 

rex xp is somewhere around 50-100K xp/hr; lobs are 150K+xp/hr
