Hunter xp rates


Estoc

Recommended Posts

Looking to get max cape, and I have hunter in my sights. Only problem is that xp rates are rather vague, specifically for Jadinkos. Since I really hate the high apm required for hunting them as well as agility, I was considering catching snowy knights/black warlocks barehanded. The only problem is that the rates I've seen for Jadinkos are extremely varied, from 160k to 280k for Draconics, so it's difficult to make a decision, though I am leaning towards butterflies. I'd appreciate if someone could clear up the xp/hr on Draconics without zamorak's favor or scentless unless they're worth using.

1 Draconic Jadinko gives 525 exp per without Zammy Favour, 577.5 exp per with it.

 

You can apparently catch around 400 draconic and 100 common with the scentless pots, which would be insane exp, so they'd honestly be worth using.

Draconics go from 160k at level 80 to about 280k at level 99. 200k+ is possible in the 85-90 range.

Butterflies are always slower than draconics, even at 99 hunt w/ bear they don't break 160k afaik. The agility xp doesn't make up for it technically.

Scentless is not worth it afaik. Favours are, of course.

Jadinkos always seem ridiculously slow to me, at level 81. I imagine the catch rate goes up a lot. I would always use scentless if you have them, but don't bother making too many..

Thanks, guess I'll go with draconics then.
