OrAnoS_eVo Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Ok sorry to be asking another question because I've posted three topics or more lately but every ones been great help so I'm back. My question is what is the best all around slayer gear? I'm not rich but not to concerned about money because i want 99 slayer and my main focus is strength but that can change. Also i am aware certain monsters it's better to wear range armor. Any help is much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

green9090 Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 In general, for monsters that don't mage you, you'll want:Slayer helmFuryBandos chest and tassetsD bootsRapierDragon defenderBarrows glovesFire capeBerserker (i) or normal berserkerD claws for specs Sometimes you'll switch out Bandos for Karil's or elite void (for the prayer bonus and mage def), and in Kuradal's dungeon you'll obviously use ferocious ring. It's pretty easy to tell when you need to switch out equipment.

Cause as I recall it was you who was the one cussing me at base. Also, re-read what you just said: one 15 second delay (which is an exaggeration to begin with) ruins floor times?

OrAnoS_eVo Posted March 12, 2011 Author Share Posted March 12, 2011 What would be a good weapon swap for rapier? I don't have 80 dungeonering, or should i get 80? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
green9090 Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Rapier is WAY better than the competition, but if you refuse to get 80 dungeoneering for it, the whip is your best bet.

Mythrandir Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Quyneax always covers this very well. I figure she'll make it here eventually, but I'll post her regular response for now: Ignore foursideking's advice, it's ridiculous. Aeil knows his stuff though :). The base slayer gear is as follows (alternatives in brackets):[For all slayer monsters except those mentioned under other weapons] Chaotic rapier (whip)Bandos body + legs (Verac's skirt with either fighter torso or proselyte top)[Depending on prayer/accuracy needs] Fire cape/Soul Wars cape/Ardougne cloak 3Barrows gloves (your best rfd gloves, at least rune)Dragon boots (rune boots)Amulet of fury (glory)Dragon defender (rune defender)Berserker ring (i)/ferocious ring if slaying in Kuradal's Dungeon (berserker ring, warrior ring)[Most important] Full slayer helmet.[For magic defence on waterfiends/aquanites] Karil's top and elite void skirt (black dragonhide body and chaps)[Crush attacks to use on waterfiends] Chaotic maul (Saradomin sword, Zamorakian spear)[stab attacks for higher-levelled dragons, when not using rapier] Korasi's sword (Zamorakian spear, leaf-bladed sword)Task-specific items such as mirror shields, antifire shields/potions, elemental shields, rock hammers, crystal chimesCannon (optional, up to personal preference)Slayer setups generally emphasise strength bonus, which increases the average damage of each succesful hit (slayer monsters usually having rather low defence, hitting is not a problem). Secondly, prayer bonus is important to keep the cost of prayer potions down (as you slay with piety on, to increase the speed of your kills. This is cost-effective and highly recommended). As a rule of thumb, +15 prayer bonus or above is good, but don't overdo it (anything above +25 is a waste). Defence and accuracy bonus are usually not fretted over (any defence bonus over 200 will do; if you get hit too often you should be using a protection prayer). Dagganoth, black demon, black dragon, lesser demon, hellhound, bloodveld and abberant spectre tasks should be cannoned, as it dramatically increases xp rates (although it costs a bit). Some notes on gear: You'll want a fury and a berserker ring before you get bandos plate, and get that before tassets. You'll want accuracy bonus on higher-levelled dragons; if using stab attacks (which you should) you can use the Ardougne cloak 3 which provides you with +6 stab and +6 prayer bonus. Torso + sw cape and fire cape + proselyte are common cheap top/cape combinations; the former is better. Some levels to get for slayer (in approximate order but I'm not sure on the summoning):68 summoning - bunyip81 dungeoneering (you need 2 million xp, which takes you to level 80, but allowing some tokens for the scroll of life) - rapier89 herblore (85 with a +4 stew boost) - extreme potions, superantifires95 prayer - turmoil and soul split88 summoning - unicorn96 herblore (91 with a +5 stew boost) - overload99 summoning - steel titanI'm sure I missed something but this is most of it.

zotto Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 What would be a good weapon swap for rapier? I don't have 80 dungeonering, or should i get 80? and don't forget you have to multiply the time you dung by 20k-??k for time lost slayering. Same for imbuing rings. So if you lose 100 hours getting stuff that is "essential" [sic] you miss out on 2M-?M slayer exp and a ~60M+ in drops. If you like dunging this isn't a problem. If you are only into slayer it might be. Depends on personal preference. You might think you need the rapier later for other stuff, or you want to continue leveling dung to 85 for frosties. Then it might be wiser to invest time in dung. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quyneax Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Thanks Mythrandir :). @ Zotto: imbued rings, fighter torsos, chaotic rapiers etcetera are not efficient if all you want is 99 slayer, but let's be realistic: nobody quits combat after 99 slayer. The rapier will remain useful for a very, very long time.

No wait, I use them every single time I boss hunt or have to kill something. Actually, I got 99 slayer before chaotics even came out, come to think of it... You lucky noobs with your kuradal and your rapiers and your cheap prayer pots... :P Join "DG Sweepers" Clan Chat for Dungeoneering Floors | Accepting all tipiters who are Willing to Learn | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zotto Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 You can lay of the sarcasm. You are not special. I also got 99 slayer before chaotics. I did a large chunk of the slayer exp before summoning as well. I did till 80 without guthans. etc. I started slaying when it came out. I actually started skilling after reaching 99 slayer + the occiasional slay to break the grind. No boss hunting. And no, I don't have anything imbued or a chaotic. So maybe not everybody does or is as you two assume. I actually thought this forum was there to give people different perspectives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
green9090 Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Okay, so if you plan on getting 99 slayer but then never, ever want to kill anything after that, then getting a rapier at a low slayer level would be a slight waste of time. Somehow I don't think many people fit that demographic. In my experience, people get 99 slayer because they enjoy combat, they don't just stop when they get 99 slayer.

Getting a rapier is absolutely worth it if you're going to do any combat beyond 99 slayer. Imbued rings are a little more grey, but if you do a lot of MHing or you're slaying far beyond 99, I think they're worth it (I don't regret getting mine). To put it bluntly, [bleep] off.

OrAnoS_eVo Posted March 12, 2011 Author Share Posted March 12, 2011 Ok, i appreciate every one that has posted here. So I might as well put the time into getting 80 dung since combat is the most enjoyable thing for me that's why slayer is fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
