Winarr Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 Recently unlocked TD's and been doing a trip a day usually averaging 18-25 kills per trip, looking for ways to speed up kills/increase kills per trip without using piety/eagle eye (as im still getting used to prayer switching/boss required apm). Currently using Rapier/Karils Xbow. A few questions semi-related; Range is really slowing me down in terms of kills, sometimes taking up to 8 attacks before switching to melee for usually one hit then back to range again. Is 99 range and or a hand cannon really going to at least half that or is there another setup I should be using? What level firemaking would 2 hand cannons last the entire trip? Currently at 75 firemaking and haven't been able to find a fail rate for these anywhere. Is there anything else I've overlooked/forgotten that would speed things up? (I know maul is preferred over rapier, cbf another 200k dg tokens for TD's) Using extremesZerker ringKarils top/bottomNeitzinot helmFuryDdef (with rapier)DbootsFire capeUnicorn Stats in Sig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quyneax Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 Well, your ranged level is a bit low, so naturally it's going to take longer to switch the ranged prayer. 99 ranged would be a lot better than 89, handcannon would also be quite a bit better than kxbow. You could use void ranged w/ glaiven boots, but I think you'll just need a higher ranged level. As for your handcannon question, I don't know, but 90+ is certainly enough, 85 probably as well.

Angelic Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 Definitely use Void > Karils, have to switch one more thing but definitely worth it. Also try switching out the Karils Xbow for Rune Cbow w/ Diamond or Broad Bolts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AHappySeeker Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 Definitely use Void > Karils, have to switch one more thing but definitely worth it. Also try switching out the Karils Xbow for Rune Cbow w/ Diamond or Broad Bolts. A CHAOTIC crossbow with RUNITE bolts deals 11% less raw DPS than Karil's crossbow while only having an 18% higher max attack roll. Considering the fact that Karil's definitely hits over 50% of the time on TDs, the chaotic will most certainly be marginally worse than Karil's at best, depending on ranged levels. You're advising a setup hat's unequivocally worse than a chaotic w/ runite. Please don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
