Vex Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 You are over 68 summoning, so no http://www.[Caution! Jagex Rule Violation].com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghjkl Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 this is not 2005you have 73 summoning so you can summon a bunyip, there is no need for guthan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lacoste Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 With the introduction of bunyips, and variations of the Excalibur, guthans is very out dated. Only use if you dont have either 68 summoning and or Enhanced excalibur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Th e Doctor Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 As stated any of the following are better than guthans BunyipEE or EEESoul SplitUnicorn If you have any of those sell your guthans. If selling your guthans would get you any of those sell it.

foursideking Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Guthans (and any barrows armor...really) is only useful if the task makes more gp than the decay rate. Sure, you can use it, but nowadays, with so many easy tasks/easier armors/1 inv space healers, you're better off just saving it for questing...

Lose No Hope Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Only real use for guthans is if you are guthan/ranging the fight caves. Outside of that, EEE(or even the EE), bunyip/unicorn, and SS flashing are far better healing methods.

GlowinRedM Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Unless you plan to be a Guthans tank at Bandos with a team (like me cause my clan is lazy at time :|) sell it for bunyip The corp beast, is, well, just a corp beast.

foursideking Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 I only actually used guthans once, and that was to finish off the bosses in dream mentor....and even then, I found it to be a waste seeing as the 250k repair cost doesn't seem worth 15hours of...well...anything. Then again, maybe I'm living in the old runescape, where people bounced ideas, shared when they could, and were generally nice most of the time...

And before bunyip, yes guthans was worth it. Help drive change Canada Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to bounce idea's we have a general discussion section in these forums... We aren't being mean, we're just telling people not to follow your advice because it's not good. Spend some time researching the best ways to do things so that the advice you have to give is a little more useful. On topic, sell guthans now if you haven't. Prices aren't going to go higher once free trade comes back. Probably the opposite. Trolling by giving good advice since April 2011.

opeious Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Just buy a high defense Armour and use eee / bunyip to heal.

Cheefoo Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Hell no, Guthan's isn't needed for slayer. Just a bunyip should suffice, or bring along an enhanced excalibur too, and you shouldn't have much problems with managing your health. You could always bring a few fish along if you need even more healing. Guthan's is outdated, there are much better ways to heal nowadays.

SirIzenhime Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Pre bunyip, ee and soul split, it's nice to have,However, for most slayer tasks, I'm pretty sure taking a few B2P tabs would overall be more efficient then switching your helm and spear (getting slower kills when you do this, + the extra degrading costs, while small, it is still there) I used to slay with guthans until I got a bunyip way back, then I never needed it.

Goldenjkered Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 The only task I ever use guthans on is Nechs, this can usually be avoided by using a more defensive setup however, and that's the reason while I currently don't have guthans.
