Blutters Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 Is there a known or highly suspected way of figuring out how long each set of 10 waves will last as far as XP goes? Also, are Magic Logs better value than Yew Logs? (Using the horn of course.)See, I honestly have no way of knowing, because how much charge they take off the horn factors into value... If you make some kind of assumptions about value vs income please detail them here, as my gp/hr is probably way lower than other 138s... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnTheCop Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 i dont believe the horn can be used for woodcutting i was under the impression only fm mining and agility were compatible with the horn, although i may be wrong also going 1-6 waves then reseting is a much better way to fill your horn.

Obtaurian Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 There's research being done on this very subject. I'm not involved in it, but AFAIK it's not quite complete. Unfortunately I can't link you to it. Use magic logs. It's EXTREMELY cheap. I think it's gonna cost me something like ~15m for 99 from 86, and it's obviously very fast. To put it bluntly, [bleep] off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blutters Posted May 24, 2011 Author Share Posted May 24, 2011 In the future I will use Magic Logs, although before I posted this I was only nearing the level to be able to burn them.The goal in mind for this thread was to attempt to determine if I would have to play more BA before reaching 79.Less short-sighted, however, was the question of just how much a full-run (which, unfortunately or not, JohnTheCop, is what you do when you play with teams including some random W6ers) would translate to time spent FMing. I have personal limitations. I don't know if they matter now or not, but they would include500k GP/hr2 full queen runs before I get tired of BA... I just got yak so hopefully I can improve that GP/hr figure a bit. Lemme see if I can find XPX's Frost Dragon guide...! Although, from what it seems, the golden age of Frost Dragons is affected a bit by current bot trends... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quyneax Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 With a yak you're talking 2m/hr at least, bots and all included. I wouldn't do queen runs for charging the horn. The waves are way slower high up, and although there isn't any evidence to indicate that it's faster to do waves 1-5 only, it seems to be experienced by people that each wave gives the same amount of potential (and that penalties don't count).

Blutters Posted May 24, 2011 Author Share Posted May 24, 2011 The search option worked well for once :)Of course, that wasn't the main point, but it's a great thing to be initiated to go find, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
