Slayer question.

[jrkerr]

no what is true and always going to be true is that dirty ourg diapers showing off too much hairy man leg is going to

be dogmatically defended by people who paid x for it, because they have to guard against the way that prices drop

as the crappy armour drops in value, so that they can use +6 strength for free for a year and then sell their ourg garbage

back for exactly the x they paid for it.

 

its heavy like granite and it has crappy slash and crush defences compared to dozens of other melee armours.

 

oh I still slay for fun in 2010 and 2011 and I aint readin nobody's guide for it.

i just don't need kuradal putting me in that goofy little cave.

I'll go get sumona or the fairy to give me a weird task I havent seen in awhile

because it means i dont have to look at minmaxing mouthbreathers man legs

telling each other "hey dur dur nice bandos dude dur dur dur"

 

fail much?

 

keep trolling me by name. I can't get enough of it.

 

...and sorry Im messing up your little merchant clan action to drop sgs prices this week.

awww.

 

and yeah... my xp per hour is less than some goofy swede's "max xp per hr!!111" video of cannoning baby black dragons, but... um...

I have a lot more experience in slayer and things like it - NOT grinding with max xp per hour, but by dawdling and taking my time

and enjoying it.

 

I NEVER see a filthy bounty hunter rogue ranked player with 99 slayer - 90%+ of the players absorbed by player killing

are people who failed to find ways to keep slayer fun. They quit and went off to pk.

 

so yeah the slayer ranks are like... 10,000 or so people who caped it, and then the damn wildy/free trade vote where

1 million of 2 million players vote "yeah we wont flood the help desk with 'I got scammed' or 'I lost my item'"

so... Im obviously a real happy guy that Im not getting heard with advice about how to ENJOY the time it takes to

cape slayer over the unwashed horde of players who want to MINIMIZE the time it takes to complete slayer.

 

stay classy. keep minmaxing.

 

edit 3: Q.... whatever your pseudonym is... yeah your embedded little guide says ardougne cape 3 for +6 stab is greater than bandos.

I agree with that and things like it. Thats not really a purchase after saving start-up money though. A 85ish slayer who wants to go the

rest of the distance is WELL advised to use the sgs special to restore prayer on tasks -and Im not saying he should deliver all his damage

with a slow godsword either, nor am I saying he should wait the full amount of time to get his special attack regenerated. Special restore potions

are really easy to make and provide great training on the way to highly useful extreme attack/defence/prayer/antifire potions.

 

and since the horde is calling me "mr 2007" then um... lemme add that popping the November 2010 5% special reduce ring on when you spec with sgs aint

a bad idea either. you dont have to wear it all the time.

1) I did not ever say that the ardougne cape 3 is superior to Bandos. They can hardly be compared anyway.

2) One sgs special takes 50% more time than one rapier hit, and uses special energy. In the time you do two sgs specials, you could have done two claw specs + a rapier hit. Now I haven't extensively tested sgs specs, but I very much doubt they will hit harder than claw specs.

3) One sgs spec will restore up to 20 prayer points, but more likely average only 12 or maybe even less, depending on accuracy. You can instead drink a few doses of pray pot.

 

If you are using recovers to get 250% special per 5 minutes (e.g. 6 doses per 5 mins drunk, pretty relaxed), you're getting 5 claw specs or 2 free rapier hits (rapier maxing at ~650, claws at ~900, with claws more accurate).

This.

 

But I love reading his posts, so I hope he doesn't get banned.

[SirIzenhime]

It's kind of like the early golvellius...you know, before he started playing the part?

No need to be a hater. I just love how every time efficiency comes into play, there is the one guy who says if you're efficient your not having fun i.e. - you're doing it wrong.

Updated advice > old advice

[zotto]

Is full bandos worth the cash for slayer? There's not much else I need/can afford atm, so I don't know if I should buy it or save for something better. Thoughts?

 

 

Only if you can spare the cash.

 

Otherwise go for verac skirt + bandos chest.

 

And actually I sold my bandos tassets a long time ago and replaced them with verac skirt. I can't remember what skill I leveled when I sold them. And I liked verac skirt better. It's not like I cannot afford to buy bandos tassets again, but they seem a bit pointless. A lot more speed can be gained by slaying with attention and with intelligence. V skirt is just also a lot more versatile.

 

 

Actually since I already have 15M+ slay exp I am not looking necessarily for speed any more. I look for fun, speed and profit. Not necessarily in that order.

 

 

 

I still don't quite get the notion of standard power slaying though. Standard demands are nowadays; ovls, turmoil, rapier and a yak. You probably can get 95 slayer in the time it takes to get all those.

[Flareboy64]

to buy things in this order:

sgs, karils top/bottom, dfs (and whip)(for attack/def focus), zamorak spear, sara sword (for str focus), verac top/bottom, full guthan, and then bandos last.

I'd never buy half that list. I know you're trying to say that he wants to buy the items, but if you can get items for free that work just as well, why not? EE> Sgs, D defender > Dfs (cept wyverns, I have them blocked), zammy spear is good unless you have a rapier, SS doesn't compare to D defender and D scim, guthans isn't as good with bunyips and EE and bandos I would buy. It doesn't seem like it would make a difference, but +6 str bonus is good.

why are you talking about hairy man legs in a thread about slayer advice... +6 strength is well worth it if you have the money to spare after buying turmoil/extremes and other gear such as a berserker ring and a fury first

 

its heavy like granite and it has crappy slash and crush defences compared to dozens of other melee armours.

the weight is a nonfactor as since 2007 (where all your advice has come from) there's been a run energy update that makes getting around a cinch, also no monster hits often enough to for those defense bonuses to matter, and the ones that do you should be praying against

 

 

oh I still slay for fun in 2010 and 2011 and I aint readin nobody's guide for it.

i just don't need kuradal putting me in that goofy little cave.

You slay for fun, good for you. No one cares. The OP wants the most efficient way to slay, not the most fun. If you want to get terrible exp/hr than fine, no reason to drag others down into the ditch with you

 

 

fail much?

all too often, just not when it comes to giving good advice on these forums

 

keep trolling me by name. I can't get enough of it.

not trolling, correcting

 

...and sorry Im messing up your little merchant clan action to drop sgs prices this week.

awww.

free trade means that this doesn't even make sense, and sgs's are worthless for anything but merchanting as there are much cheaper and better spec weapons for options

 

and yeah... my xp per hour is less than some goofy swede's "max xp per hr!!111" video of cannoning baby black dragons, but... um...

I have a lot more experience in slayer and things like it - NOT grinding with max xp per hour, but by dawdling and taking my time

and enjoying it.

again, no one cares. This isn't about fun, its about being efficient. When a poster comes along asking for a fun way to slay feel free to post your comments about hairy man legs and using an sgs for specs

 

I NEVER see a filthy bounty hunter rogue ranked player with 99 slayer - 90%+ of the players absorbed by player killing

are people who failed to find ways to keep slayer fun. They quit and went off to pk.

so yeah the slayer ranks are like... 10,000 or so people who caped it, and then the damn wildy/free trade vote where

so... Im obviously a real happy guy that Im not getting heard with advice about how to ENJOY the time it takes to

ever occur to you that some of us enjoy slaying with max exp/hr?

 

stay classy. keep minmaxing.

You're right about the ring being worth popping on for specs...if you're using claws and not inside kuradels dungeon with a fero ring at your disposal. And the ring saves 10% of total spec energy used, please get your facts straight before posting
