Grinding at the gilded altar

[That_Brown_Kid]

Is it realistic for me to use the gilded altar to offer 75,000 babydragon bones?

 

 

It seems like AN INSANE AMOUNT of bones to me.

 

Grimy says its 136k xp/h with tort (but i'll probably be doing 130k since im not a machine)

 

This equates to 61 hours of offering.

 

I value my time at 1m/h.

 

Grimy says big bones are best for me at 1m/h but thats 132k big bones i believe.

 

 

Do you think it's possible for me to do the 75k babydragon bones (cost an estimated 137-140m)?

 

they are falling I believe, so I could maybe even get them for less.

Of course it is possible but time is money.

 

I would use Frost bones. (or at least d bones)

 

Unless of course, you like grinding a lot more.

[That_Brown_Kid]

frost bones are 29 gp/xp+

 

dbones are 25

 

raurg are like 24

 

 

meaning 230m for 95 pray via frost.

 

I'm only at 152m bank :unsure:

I've seen you around man, and honestly, keep on getting money, it wont take more then a few weeks at your pace to get you to 95.

 

I am in your situation now, only difference is you have about 120m on me, and I am getting a yak before turmoil.

 

Once you do get enough money, use dragon bones.

 

Good luck!

On my way to 99 prayer I started at 25k d bones, I got extremely bored lol so I sold all of them and my armor and brought 15k frost dragon bones.

 

With a tort I could do around 1k bones to 1.2k an hour.

 

You could do the baby dragon bones or you could, like the above poster said, keep making some money until you can afford at least dragon bones.

 

Good luck. :)

So, assuming you value your time at 1m/hr. Let's try to break it down.

 

Assumed Bones Per Hr with War Tort: 1200

XP required from 70-95: 8M

 

Big Bone:

XP: 52.5

Bones Needed: 152,000

Cost per: 632

Total Cost: 96M

Total Hours: 126

 

 

Baby Drag:

XP: 105

Bones Needed: 76,000

Cost per: 2017

Total Cost: 153M

Total Hours: 63

 

 

Dragon:

XP: 252

Bones Needed: 31,500

Cost per: 6492

Total Cost: 204M

Total Hours: 26

 

 

If time is valued at 1m/hr, we take total cost & subtract Hours SAVED (As this is your relevant income) then compare it to the total cost of the other methods.

 

Comparisons:

 

Dragon Vs BabyDragon: [204M - 36 = 168M relevant cost]

You will save 15M by doing BabyDrags over Dragon, in the same timeframe.

 

Dragon Vs Big Bone: [204M - 100 = 104M relevant cost]

You will save 8m by doing Big Bones over Dragon, in the same timeframe.

 

BabyDragon Vs BigBone: [153M - 63 = 90M relevant cost]

You will save 3m by doing BabyDrags over Big bones, in the same timeframe.

 

As a flipside - if you are doing the lower bones - you are EARNING money, since you are SAVING money, or SAVING time needed to make money.

Unless you extremely dislike prayer training, the babydrag bones should be used @ your relevant income.

 

PS: The additional War Torts, Teletabs & Marrentil required for bigbones/babydrags are NOT included, you may find that will cost around a mil or so.

^Above calcs are all you need.

 

I'd buy ~5k dragon bones, altar those, see how you like it. There is absolutely no reason to have 100m cash when you can instead have prayer levels, unless you are merching with it, in which case you'd be valuing your time a bit higher I think.

okay i typed that response on my phone, so it corrected it from moneymaking to lovemaking...

 

156.3/200m now...

 

I think i'll just save up to 200-215m and then buy turmoil. hopefully prices will be somewhat lower.
