Dungeoneering rushers, answer me this....

[Snipers_end]

When you people rush through a dungeon ignoring every monster, how the **** do you have enough food to take on the boss? Or is the extra xp worth dying a few times?

[Wingless]

Guardian Doors -> Enough Food.

 

Besides, most of the bosses don't even need that much food. Maybe like 3 or 4 Seels, but even that's a bit much.

[Andy]

You kill stuff at guardian doors. They drop food. I usually only need a max of 4 food at any time to survive most rooms. Any more and you're just wasting food that other people might need.

you just get good enough at it until you can do it.

[Obtaurian]

If you took the time to stay and kill every single monster you saw, you'd probably have a much greater chance of dying and wasting food than had you just ignored them. But basically you just kill monsters in guardian rooms, and like magic they drop food. AMAZING.

Well first I would need to lrn2get92pray. That's a story in itself anyway, I used to be able to prayer flash so well I would use 5 prayer points total in a slayer task flashing piety and then they updated the way that attacking works so that the game calculates the damage at the beginning of the animation instead of the end and from then on I never got good at it again. What was the perfect timing before became 2 seconds too late.

It also helps having a Shadow silk hood, which every self-respecting rusher has bound.

Soul Split is generally considered useless by itself; i.e., without Turmoil, which is 95 prayer.

[Grimy_Bunyip]

soulsplit is hardly necessary to have enough food to boss with.

This never happened, I've been flashing piety since about a month after the update to prayer that made it possible (the one that made you keep attacking when swapping prayers instead of having to reclick every time you change prayer). I also used to watch my exp to see what I was going to hit before I hit it back in ~2004 or earlier, and it always calculated the hit at the same time as it does now.

 

Sounds like you never learned to flash prayer. You should probably learn it, it's useful.

Yes, I did learn how to flash prayer. Before some update (I quit and came back to the new system so I don't know exactly what happened) I would flash the prayer right before I got the splash on me and I would never get hit. Then when I came back I would do the EXACT same thing and it wouldn't work. I started flashing the prayer right before the enemy started the animation to attack me and it would work. The main problem is that before you could flash the prayer to within a second but after whatever update it seems like your prayer has to be on for a second or two before it actually takes effect.

[Gravy]

sounds like lag to me.

[green9090]

Sounds like you forgot how to flash when you took a break. I've been flashing for years and I can tell you for a fact the mechanics have never changed.

Ugh... I love how every time I complain about something everyone tells me I just suck at it.

This is old flashing http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PhKTx8dsj34

And here is a video I just made about new flashing

Unfortunately the guy in the first video doesn't illustrate my second point about instant prayer flashing but there it is. Sorry about the quality of my video, I hate pinnacle studio 15.

[green9090]

LOL.

 

In the first video he has prayer on before the attack animation starts. In the second video the guy is late every time. HMMM COULD THIS BE RELATED?

Were you even listening to the video? Before the untold update what I was doing would've worked. Now that I watch the other video more closely I can see that they didn't change the timing of anything, they changed the length of the hitting animations. I can't find anyone on youtube who was able to do instant flashing so whatever, I can't prove anything and all I can do is hope that someone else noticed this

[Cheefoo]

I was under the impression protect prayers activate with a delay now.

[green9090]

I can do instant flashing. You just have to do it on the right tick, which is, and ALWAYS HAS BEEN, the tick on which the attack animation begins.

 

Look at the first video and then look at yours. He is CLEARLY turning on his prayer earlier than you. That's why you're getting hit. Change your instant flash to a tick earlier and you're good.

 

Cheef- they always did. You have to account for the lag when you flash.

If you watch my video to a later point you can see I can still prayer flash, just not as effectively.

In this video you can see in the description he mentions that people said prayer flashing didn't work anymore because of runetek 5 and he mentions you have to change your timing. THAT is what I'm talking about! The video I showed is useless for this point because.. well to put it bluntly the guy wasn't that great at prayer flashing. He could've saved more points by turning on his prayer later back then.

Sniper, all the videos you've shown have demonstrated prayer flashing to always work the same way. That guy is flashing the same way I said you have to.
