purekilljoy Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Hello! Haven't been on RS for a while again need some quick advice. Mage 87 atm, need 95 as soon as possible. SO - how would you recommend?I am a huge fan of efficiency, so I need 95 for slaying ice strykers better so I just want to bump mage up to 95 and be over with it. Money is not an issue. I'd like 2 suggstions: One for combat related - e.g any slayer monsters I could do efficiently with mage? and Secondly not combat related And if you have any estimates, how many hours I'd be doing that would be a nice bonus. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JacTise69 Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Your summoning level is only lvl 75 so bursting rock lobsters for charms will be the most "efficient" if you want to get summoning up at all. Unfortunately that wastes hitpoints exp. As far as combat goes that's my best suggestion, most slayer monsters aren't worth maging until you get 95 for fire surge which happens to be your goal. After that abyssal demons I know for sure are still profit for fire surging. Non combat magic experience includes string jewelery at ~165 k exp per hour, very semi-afkHunter Kit clocks in at about 186 k exp/hr and is more clickyString Jewelery in combination with hunter kit hits about 260 k exp/hr Other combat options for fast exp are bursting/barraging at ape atoll (same spot as chinning) which is 285 k exp/hr and 386 k exp/hr respectively. If you're planning on bursting/barraging though do rock lobsters for 116/157 k exp/hr and summoning charms. Trolling by giving good advice since April 2011.

purekilljoy Posted February 23, 2011 Author Share Posted February 23, 2011 I got summoning banked till 87ish or sth. I just don't see the need for summoning really before Yaks. So pretty much, which ever way you cut it, quickest way would be bursting/barraging? As I always have the need for charms I should just start bursting or barraging rocks.

purekilljoy Posted February 23, 2011 Author Share Posted February 23, 2011 Yeah, gonna work on summoning after mage 95. Ok, so if no other great ideas, then I'm gonna go with barraging. So by my calculations I'm looking at:4,75 mil left to mage 95so at 167k xp per hour ~28,5?! Hours of barraging1k casts is around 260k xp so need about 18,5k smoke barrage castsaround 2,5k gp/cast so 18,5 x 2,5 = 46,25 M all together? Am I missing something or does that sound about right? If that is correct, then the thing that bothers me with this is the 28 hours.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JacTise69 Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Well if you want speed barrage the monkeys on ape atoll for the fastest exp. I don't think this is worth it as you can still use the summoning exp. It is over twice as fast though so its up to you, if you really don't want the summoning exp then go to ape atoll and cut that number in half. Trolling by giving good advice since April 2011.

purekilljoy Posted February 23, 2011 Author Share Posted February 23, 2011 Yeah, but I will need the summoning xp in th end any way, so barraging sounds good. Btw bonus question, will a SOL save a significant amount on runes spent or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lacoste Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Definitely use a sol, along with battle robes you can save around half your runes, but of course if you make enough money/cant be bothered with the recharge costs, Ahrims will be fine.

Winarr Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 I think Bursting/Barraging Nechs is pretty decent xp. Even if you dont bother to bank ashes/use urns, would still make some cash back from drops. Some extra charms too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use an SoL. Battle robes are debateable. If you have the spare tokens to recharge them or have a fetish for FoG then use them. If not and you value your time as more than the amount of money saved then no, don't use them. Ahrims is the better option imo as I value my time at over 2 mil an hour and I hate FoG.

Yeah, I don't do minigames, so no battle robes. No way that's gonna be happening :D Thanks a lot for your help! So Ahrims, SOL and a [cabbage]load of runes, great! I'll get at it as soon as I get my slayer to 95. I might be able to bump my summoning over 90+ with the charms. Sweet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
