Slaying profits


Nifflin

Recommended Posts

I've been slaying lately for 99 strength, it's been going very well, I'm just not noticing any profits. I cannon a few tasks, and peity most other tasks, am I missing something? Why does my cashpile seem static? After I recharge my rapier I might have lost cash on my slaying spree.

 

Also, what is the best use of slayer points? Exp, runes or skipping? Or should I just save them?

PM me in game anytime

Skipping. Also, profit is mainly from dragons, dark beasts, abyssals and ice strykes, so yeah, your cashpile could well be static, due to no yak & no 85 slayer.

Obviously cannoning and the use of a rapier is going to push your profit down a little, but you should be making on average something like 200k per task. For instance, I finished a task of 99 Desert Strykwyms yesterday, took me a bit less than an hour and I made just under 500k profit on the drops. Tasks like Abby Demons, Stryk Wyrms, Spirit Mages and Dragon tasks will be where most of your money will be coming from.

Well that's really a pain, I guess that I just need to slay more. Profits will increase once I get to abby demons?

Did you really just ask that? Why? It's so very very very obvious obvious obvious that the answer to your question is "yes". :P

 

Since a whip is priced at 1.7M at the moment, and whip drop rate is like 1:512, the value of killing 1 abyssal demon would be 3320 gp. You use pots/unicron/bunyip, but they are evened out by other drops(rune meds, chains, essence), heck, the other drops are worth more than supplies. I would estimate 1 abyssal demon kill being worth 3500 gp.

 

Average task is about 200, so... The average profit per abyssal task would be 700k.

200k profit per task @ 83 slayer seems a high to me. Most tasks are between 50-150k profit. On some you'll lose money (hellhounds) and on some tasks you can earn a few 100k (gargoyles etc.). I've been told, and I think this is true, that the profit wil (greatly) increase at 85 slayer.

 

Also, you should keep your points for skipping or buy the ability to make broad bolts / slayer rings.

What are you doing with slayer rings? The only time I use them is when I need to use a fairy ring for various stuff and then I can tele to relleka slayer caves, because the fairy ring is so close by. And for desert slayer master teleport, ofcourse.

 

Seriously, I don't know any other uses, if there are, please tell :P

"Can teleport you to the Slayer Tower in Morytania, Slayer Dungeon in Rellekka, Pollnivneach, or The Lair of Tarn Razorlor 8 times. Also can be used to check on your current slayer assignment status and how many Slayer Points you have." Also, it saves you 1 inventory spot else used for a slayer gem.

Slayer Rings are quite usefull (atleast thats my opinion) for Clues, getting to slayer tower/cave.. you save time and therefore more time on slaying and cutting every task shorter by 2-3 mins most of the time.

 

Now to stay "On Topic" I make a lot of money with slayer.. had to kill 183 Spiritual Mages the other day, gotten 6 sets of D-boots, by tagging some warriors i also got a lot of rune kites/halberds/longswords DE those for more cash.. that was my most benefit during a slayer task ~2.6m after i sold the d-boots.

 

Also on other task i usually bring my set of High Alching runes to alch most crappy loots, Steel 2h's etc. if you do that with all the crappy loots you get or see on the ground left behind by others you can benefit a LOT more.. so far what iv gotten from 81 slayer to 88 slayer is ~22m cash (sold drops etc.) also kept drops like D-Boots (2) for in my bank and use.. same for a whip so itlll keep my bank nice n tight.

I hope you got some use of this post ;)

Thanks, but I personally wouldn't suggest ever wearing the slayer ring. Ferecious ring in dung. and warrior/berserker ring when not in the dungeon.

You use pots/unicron/bunyip, but they are evened out by other drops(rune meds, chains, essence), heck, the other drops are worth more than supplies. I would estimate 1 abyssal demon kill being worth 3500 gp.

 

Average task is about 200, so... The average profit per abyssal task would be 700k.

 

Is that with the price of infernal ashes taken into consideration?

No need to fix, since you are better off using a warrior ring compared to nothing if you can't afford berserker ring.

 

That was the only reason I added it to my previous post, not because I think in any way warrior ring is better.

No.

 

According to xpx, he just bought 1 infernal ashes for 5600.

 

If you can be bothered to bank so often(shouldn't be a problem if you have a nice stack of ferecious rings), this will add 1.12M, resulting in 1.82M per task, on average.

 

Not too shabby.

That's why you just keep it in your inventory when you are on a slayer task.

 

And if you run out of space you can always just drop it because it is worth nothing (one gold bar).

Double whip task made me profit more than I had in 2 weeks back when whip was 4m :P

[hide]

99 Strength 99 Fletching 99 Range 99 Hitpoints 99 Attack

99 Dungeoneering <3 99 Magic 99 Smithing 99 Herblore

99 Theving

Slayer Drops: 14 whips, 22 D boots, 27 Granite Mauls, 42 Effigies, 5 Dark Bows.

What would be cool is if Drakan and his minions kill all the sig heroes in the quest except Raptor who is wrecking. You and him team up and cave in some vampyre heads. He becomes a total bro in future quests and in a GM quest he receives a fatal injury and his last dying words to you are "Brofist, mang"

yak

 

 

Wow you can bank stuff with yak? :o

 

I don't know if you seriously thought I didn't know about that or you are just trying to get me go on a kitten killingspree?

 

 

I am 96 slayer and I don't have a yak, and I am a standard player. I think a lot most 85+ level slayers don't have a yak.

if you don't have a yak, then you are probably better off ignoring the ashes (i.e. using urns) and killing more demons for more chances at whips and taking the prayer xp

I've already bought the ability to make rings and fletch broads. They are both worth it.

 

I guess I need to keep powering on then. Maybe I should cannon a little less. I feel like the few tasks that I profit on are nothing compared to the tasks I cannon combined with the costs of peity and other random expenses such as repairing barrows and my rapier.

 

Oh, and I do dalies for that profit, in that sense my cashpile is still growing, but like at the same rate it was when I was superheating + smelting gold. I just thought getting back to slayer would be better then it is.

 

I feel wasteful when I don't do tasks the best way possible, but on the other hand I feel bad when I see my crappy cashpile after slaying for a week.

 

Whatever, time to suck it up I guess.
