Quick 12m?


asd143fgh

Recommended Posts

Hello everyone, for the past few months i have always wanted to have full bandos and dfs. I finaly got the chestplate and tassets but in a very slow and boring way (Fishing rocktails for a whole month).

 

Yesterday i saw the dfs price going down and alot of people told me to buy it this moment, but i only had 9m at that time, so i had to sell tassets to buy dfs before it becomes 30m+ again.

 

I went to do some green dragons and rocktail fishing, green drags was a pain and barely made 2m which got my eyes wet and red for keeping an eye on the screen all the time.

 

Luckaly found wolf staff, royal crown, white beret and some runes in my bank. So, that makes my total now 15m. Currently i'm fishing rocktails.

 

Picture of my stats,

statspk.png

Btw, the reason i put the nfs watermark is because i read here that it's best to do that cause someone may post my stats on black markets.

 

tl;dr, sold bandos tassies for dfs and now i need 12m more, what are your advices?

 

I know there are alot of ways.. :(

 

Godwars - I don't think i have some stat requirements + i have no friends and i'm too scared to go alone. Died when i went there for the first time by myself.

Green dragons - almost every world has atlleast 2 cannons and alot of people.

Rocktails - I think they made them slower than before o.o takes tooooo long

Slayer - I got living rock creatures and i'm keeping that task for after i get the tassets, xp per kill is 320, cant miss that. :D

 

 

Please help, i really want to get those tassies back fast and get back to slaying.

Your total level is pretty low (no offence) so you won't be able to do many good moneymakers. Your best bet right now would be to sell both bcp and dfs and get 70 prayer. Do you have a fury yet?

#-o Yeah he does, I was confused by his ranged level. Well yeah, fury, dragon defender, no dfs. 95 prayer is far better, any summoning or herblore levels as well.

Prayer is actualy 78. :)

 

Yeah i've been told good things about the dragon defender and i'm thinking of getting it but still, i would like to have a dfs. And about the prayer and herblore, i'll try and make money for those later when i get a higher slayer level.

 

So no money making with my stats, eh? :(

 

Thanks for the suggestions so far, any others?

The base slayer gear is as follows (alternatives in brackets):

  • [For all slayer monsters except those mentioned under other weapons] Chaotic rapier (whip)
  • Bandos body + legs (Verac's skirt with either fighter torso or proselyte top)
  • [Depending on prayer/accuracy needs] Fire cape/Soul Wars cape/Ardougne cloak 3
  • Barrows gloves (your best rfd gloves, at least rune)
  • Dragon boots (rune boots)
  • Amulet of fury (glory)
  • Dragon defender
  • Berserker ring (i)/ferocious ring if slaying in Kuradal's Dungeon (berserker ring, warrior ring)
  • [Most important] Full slayer helmet.
  • [For magic defence on waterfiends/aquanites] Karil's top and bottom (black dragonhide body and chaps, elite void skirt)
  • [Crush attacks to use on waterfiends] Chaotic maul (Saradomin sword, Zamorakian spear)
  • [stab attacks for higher-levelled dragons, when not using rapier] Zamorakian spear (Korasi's sword, leaf-bladed sword)
  • Task-specific items such as mirror shields, antifire shields/potions, elemental shields, rock hammers, crystal chimes
  • Cannon (optional, up to personal preference)

Slayer setups generally emphasise strength bonus, which increases the average damage of each succesful hit (slayer monsters usually having rather low defence, hitting is not a problem). Secondly, prayer bonus is important to keep the cost of prayer potions down (as you slay with piety on, to increase the speed of your kills. This is cost-effective and highly recommended). As a rule of thumb, +15 prayer bonus or above is good, but don't overdo it (anything above +25 is a waste). Defence and accuracy bonus are usually not fretted over (any defence bonus over 200 will do; if you get hit too often you should be using a protection prayer). Dagganoth, black demon, lesser demon, hellhound, bloodveld and spectre tasks should be cannoned, as it dramatically increases xp rates (although it costs a bit).

 

Some notes on gear: You'll want a fury and a berserker ring before you get bandos plate, and get that before tassets. You'll want accuracy bonus on higher-levelled dragons; if using stab attacks (which you should) you can use the Ardougne cloak 3 which provides you with +6 stab and +6 prayer bonus. Torso + sw cape and fire cape + proselyte are common cheap top/cape combinations; the former is better.

[/hide]

Some levels to get for slayer (in approximate order but I'm not sure on the summoning):

  • 68 summoning - bunyip
  • 81 dungeoneering (you need 2 million xp, which takes you to level 80, but allowing some tokens for the scroll of life) - rapier
  • 89 herblore (85 with a +4 stew boost) - extreme potions, superantifires
  • 95 prayer - turmoil and soul split
  • 88 summoning - unicorn
  • 96 herblore (91 with a +5 stew boost) - overload
  • 99 summoning - steel titan

 

Now this is my usual reply to questions about slayer, gear and levels related to killing stuff etc. I hid the part less relevant to you. It's important to note that it's usually better to welfare with high levels than using the best gear with lower levels. For example, if you want to do bossing, turmoil/overloads are more useful than divine.

Your farming level is pretty unforgiveable, no offence. Someone with multiple 99s in the pursuit of moneymakers should not be only level 40 farming, but no matter, because toadflax can be planted at 38. If you're interested in raising the hunter level, take a look at the Herblore Habitiat guide in the AoW in order to boost profits.

 

Each herb run provides over 100K, easily more with juju farming potions, and takes five minutes. It's not gonna get 12m any time soon, but it will get it over time for very little effort and provide good farming experience until you can do maples/pineapples.

I think you can easily do 12m a week with 85+ farming, juju pots and a scroll of life. So yeah, not soon, but once you get there.

Would 81 dungeoneering take long? I'm only 13 because on every floor i complete i barely get 30 exp at the end.

Planting takes 5 minutes if your fast, supposedly.

 

*thinks*

 

Yeah, with practice and the right teleports, you could do a run in 5 minutes. And of course you'd do other things while they grew.

 

Honestly, as for money making, besides herblore...your best bet for consistent money would be some type of dragon, or boss monsters to really bring in the dough. Skilling isn't that profitable due to the amount of botters...

 

Oh dear. Just had a thought. Imagine how expensive dragon bones would be if it *wasn't* for the bots....O.O

Squab unleashes Megiddo! Completed all quests and hard diaries. 75+ Skiller. (At one point.) 2000+ total. 99 Magic.
[spoiler=The rest of my sig. You know you wanna see it.]

my difinition of noob is i dont like u, either u are better then me or u are worst them me

Buying spins make you a bad person...don't do it. It's like buying nukes for North Korea.

Well if it bothers you that the game is more fun now, then you can go cry in a corner. :shame:

your article was the equivalent of a circumcized porcupine

The only thing wrong with it is the lack of a percentage for when you need to stroke it.

Actually price wouldn't raise much more (maybe even lower as people need to spend more money on other skills and thus have less money left):

-The limiting factor in the dragon bone supply is NOT the fact that there are too few people collecting: it is the fact that dragons don't spawn immediatellly.. With less (or even no) bots dragon bones would still come in just as fast! - As the bots would quickly be replaces by regular players.

 

(if you won't have to compete with bots, dbone farming is the only effective money maker atm).

First they came to fishing

and I didn't speak out because I wasn't fishing

 

Then they came to the yews

and I didn't speak out because I didn't cut yews

 

Then they came for the ores

and I didn't speak out because I didn't collect ores

and there was no one left to speak out for me.

All the studies into herb farming collate into an average yield of 6.8 per herb patch without the juju potion, and they all assume deaths from people not checking the health of their herbs. (In other words, 0 yields are included)

 

Hardly anyone stands by their herbs to check their health unless they're alching, allotment farming at the same time or skilling something that doesn't require a bank, like bolts/arrows. The vast majority lay the super compost to decrease risk of disease and increase herb yield, plant the seed and do something else until they've grown. I personally plant them, do a slayer task and come back. Grown plants can't die, so you can take all the time in the world. That's the appeal; metaphorically, it really is like growing money in the ground whilst you do something else.

 

It's been proven in light of the Herblore Habitat - hence the need to do herb runs as quickly as possible before the juju's effect runs out - that herb runs can be accomplished quite easily within 5 minutes on a good connection, going to Trollheim first.

though I'd say without ardy cap & with all the banking required, you should plan like 15 minutes at least for a run!

and there was no one left to speak out for me.

Your farming level is pretty unforgiveable, no offence. Someone with multiple 99s in the pursuit of moneymakers should not be only level 40 farming, but no matter, because toadflax can be planted at 38. If you're interested in raising the hunter level, take a look at the Herblore Habitiat guide in the AoW in order to boost profits.

 

Each herb run provides over 100K, easily more with juju farming potions, and takes five minutes. It's not gonna get 12m any time soon, but it will get it over time for very little effort and provide good farming experience until you can do maples/pineapples.

Doesn't planting take too long? But i think i could do other stuff till it grows. :)

All the studies into herb farming collate into an average yield of 6.8 per herb patch without the juju potion, and they all assume deaths from people not checking the health of their herbs. (In other words, 0 yields are included)

 

Hardly anyone stands by their herbs to check their health unless they're alching, allotment farming at the same time or skilling something that doesn't require a bank, like bolts/arrows. The vast majority lay the super compost to decrease risk of disease and increase herb yield, plant the seed and do something else until they've grown. I personally plant them, do a slayer task and come back. Grown plants can't die, so you can take all the time in the world. That's the appeal; metaphorically, it really is like growing money in the ground whilst you do something else.

 

It's been proven in light of the Herblore Habitat - hence the need to do herb runs as quickly as possible before the juju's effect runs out - that herb runs can be accomplished quite easily within 5 minutes on a good connection, going to Trollheim first.

though I'd say without ardy cap & with all the banking required, you should plan like 15 minutes at least for a run!

 

Actually, you don't need to bank. Seeds take up one inventory space. Spade takes up one space. Ectophial takes up one space. Fire, water, air, law runes take up 4 spaces total. One spaced for noted herbs. That's 7 spaces; this is using the most basic way to get to all patches. You can note your herbs using the leprechaun... You may end up using more or less spaces depending on how you do it, but really, with noting the herbs, your given more then enough spaces.

 

Also, if you wear climbing boots, you can go to the Rekella slayer cave via fairy ring (or slayer ring) run north a bit, then east and you can take the secret entrance to the troll stronghold. It's not actually that much slower then teleporting, but more importantly its useful if your on lunars or ancients. (Since I've been on ancients ever since the new quest came out. It's amazing how easily you can get around with using teleports from your spellbook...)

 

Anyways, once you get into the swing of herb farming, you can do them pretty fast. I must remember to start doing trollheim first however...

my difinition of noob is i dont like u, either u are better then me or u are worst them me

Buying spins make you a bad person...don't do it. It's like buying nukes for North Korea.

Well if it bothers you that the game is more fun now, then you can go cry in a corner. :shame:

your article was the equivalent of a circumcized porcupine

The only thing wrong with it is the lack of a percentage for when you need to stroke it.

I bring seeds, ectophial, spade, dibber, 5 air 3 law 2 fire, 5 supercompost and a juju farming potion. Before I reach the first patch I've used my fires, so that leaves 20 spots for herbs, 19 after I noted the first bunch. Then I go ectophial, cabbageport, ranging guild (combat bracelet) and finally camelot, where I bank, making compost as needed from Arhein's pinapples. Sometimes I also add a juju spiritbag and farm the jungle herb.

You don't have to bank for a farm run...

I am talking about getting seeds, runes etc from bank.. - and the fact you have to GO to the bank / make time for it..

 

Btw: without juju it is best to start with 1 near a teleport spot (you can clean herbs while walking)..

First they came to fishing

and I didn't speak out because I wasn't fishing

 

Then they came to the yews

and I didn't speak out because I didn't cut yews

 

Then they came for the ores

and I didn't speak out because I didn't collect ores

 

Then they came for me

and there was no one left to speak out for me.

OK, really... banking takes thirty seconds in Edgeville. A whole run takes five minutes, and if you convert the profits to an hourly basis, would you turn down a 5Mgp/hr activity?

There is absolutely no doubting whether herb farming is worth banking for. :rolleyes:

ya Barrows would be a good idea ppl say 1mil per hour but that is only an average after you have spent months there and have got dozens of the higher priced pieces. Really it brings in about 100k~ in runes per hour with a good chance of getting a barrows piece every 2 hours but most of the time the piece is worth about 1mil. The only pieces worth more then 5mil are dharok's helm and karils top. So without camping for months on end the short term(10-20 hours) profit is more like 600k per hour.

You could also kill chaos druids for herbs not sure on the money per hour but its in the 200k range.

Melee seems to be completely out of sync with the rest of your combat stats. Now your maxed melee, try and apply some more ranging and maging (in slayer they're often good substitutes for melee actually, lrc are weak to both as well). Try and get range/mage to 70+ and go barrows with black sally, preferrably raise mage to ice blitz, so you can use more efficient methods.

 

Farm lots more like the others say, you will not regret it.

Barrowing is very effective for cash. I've never purely meleed the brothers, but with your stats that shouldnt be a problem. If you got at least 70 mage and range, the black salamander is effective; however, I think you would be best off meleeing. I've heard that, on average, utilizing a low kc (2-3) and running the mounds multiple times per trip can be several mil per hour.

 

Chech the AOW for some guides.

 

*edit* oh and farming at the same time is a great moneymaker as well.

 

*edit again* just realized others had reccomended this already.

Quick ways to make money would be Green Dragons in CT with your best BoB. Take a Games Necklace for fast banking. About 1.3m gp/h.

Aviansies are good too, about 1.2m gp/h at 99 Ranged so just scale down a bit to see what you would make.

Doing regular herb runs will add to that, as well as doing mtk.
