Power Slayer

[L2Pullout]

I am looking for the fastest, most efficient way to slay my way to 99. I recently returned to RS after a 3 year break. I have been back for about 2 months and in that time I used it to do turmoil quests and get a chaotic rapier and some other stuff.

 

I have 99 attack, str, def, range, magic, hp, and prayer and currently have 88 slayer and 92 summoning. Ideally I am looking for tasks that:

 

1.) Are fast slayer exp

2.) Provide a good amount of summoning exp (whether this be through effigy's or charms)

 

Efficiency is a relatively new term to me on RS. It wasn't really around when I played, mostly people were just worried about doing something "fast." I have heard about all kinds of lists that have the best type of exp but I haven't been able to find them. I also haven't been able to find zarfot's powerslayer guide. So if I could get a couple links to those that would be great.

 

1 more thing, should I be using prayer gear + turmoil for every task?

And Enaid has a nifty slayer setup post that I seem to have lost. I know someone has it copied, so I'll let that person (or Enaid herself) post it.

I don't that he has a problem with the setup but here it is:

 

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 3
  
• Barrows 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 chimes
  
• Cannon (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 - bunyip
  
• 81 dungeoneering (you need 2 million xp, which takes you to level 80, but allowing some tokens for the scroll of life) - rapier
  
• 89 herblore (85 with a +4 stew boost) - extreme potions, superantifires
  
• 95 prayer - turmoil and soul split
  
• 88 summoning - unicorn
  
• 96 herblore (91 with a +5 stew boost) - overload
  
• 99 summoning - steel titan
  

I'm sure I missed something but this is most of it.

Those guides were pretty good. The slayer guide was probably kind of outdated. I just had a task of 190 black demons and had a few questions about it.

 

The slayer guide mentioned to kill them in chaos tunnel, which I did. A task of 190 of them took me 53 minutes using extremes and wolptinger, is this about the correct about of time for a task this size? Previously I killed them in tav dungeon with cannon in 1 of 2 ways

 

1. Setting up cannon then going to a safe spot and ranging 1 while the cannon took out multiple

2. Using chaotic rapier and cannon w/ turmoil to kill them

 

The first option is how I did it years ago so I don't know how effective that is. I also don't know whats better chaos tunnel with wolper or tav. Wolper hits probably an average of 140 with maxes all the way up to 220.

 

I also don't have claws so is it worth it to use DDS as a spec weapon after re-potting or am I better off DPS wise just leaving the rapier on. I didn't feel like claws really ever specced very good so I got rid of them.

 

I assume I should have berserker pray on to minimize stat dropping?

I assume super prayers aren't more efficient if I can finish a task with regular prayer pots without the need to bank. I don't feel like 8k more per pot is worth 10 more prayer points? Correct me if I am wrong.

Do chaos tunnel monsters drop more charms on average? Slayer guide mentioned this, but I wasn't sure how accurate it was.

On a task of metal drags am I better off going to the resource dungeon and setting up cannon or should I just do that in kuradels dungeon? (wasn't sure if resource dungeon was multi or not)

 

I also don't understand why jagex can't make the wolper attack everything I do, like seriously I have to click attack then click on demon for the wolper to ever do anything? Pretty annoying considering summoning has been out for 3 years.

 

Thanks for your help guys, I am trying to get back into the swing of things.

Taverly with cannon is faster. I would do that. (Meleeing them one at a time while cannon shoots the one you attack). I think a while back someone came up with a method where another player would block demons for you so your cannon would constantly shoot multiple demons at a time, but this isn't practical.

 

Not worth dds specing imo. Claws barely even speed up your experience as it is.

 

Yes, use regular prayer potions. You want to use the fastest method/inventory possible where you still finish in one trip.

 

Chaos tunnel used to drop more charms, but I believe this has been balanced out for monsters in other locations too. Black demons for example, now drop the same amount of charms inside and outside of the chaos tunnels.

 

I believe Kuradal's dungeon is best for metal dragons. Pretty sure resource is single combat.

Cannoning irons and steels in Ghorrock is ever so slightly faster than Kuradal's, I believe, but not enough to be worth the hassle really. Off task the difference of a cannon is quite huge.
