Range Training

Featured Replies

I'm sure there is already a thread asking a similar question about this, but I'll go ahead and ask.

 

I'm training a hybrid up and right now I'm working on range. My current range level is 40 and I've been killing hill giants. I would like to move up a little bit but I'm not sure exactly where to go. I would like to make similar money, if not more from hill giants because I was collecting the big bones and selling them. Do you guys have any ideas? Thanks in advance

Stick with Hill Giants up until about 60. Are you P2P by chance? If not, that's the best option for now.

I am in fact P2P. Any better options?

What do you have moneywise?

  • Author

Well I want to safespot as I have no defense, and I'm a rather low level right now. (I'm level 32) and I have 400k

1 def pures are obsolete. Do you have prayer?

Right now I have 10 defense, I figured 1 defense would be a bad idea. Here are my levels right now:

 

Range : 44

Mage : 27 (Will be trained to 53 after I get 50 range)

Defense : 10

Prayer: 18 (Im getting many big bones from my training, not sure to use or sell)

Attack : 1

Defense : 1

I recommend burying the bones for now, or selling them all and making more money later on to use dragon bones for prayer.

 

As for training, I find that Banshees in the Slayer Tower are very fast experience and pretty good for money if you're cheap. Just bring a full inventory of food, kill until you're out, rinse and repeat!

One you hit around 65 range I would recommend doing the waterfall quest and training inside of the waterfall on the fire giants. Or even training on Caged Ogres in the King Lathas Training Area(I forgot which quest you have to do to gain access).

Ok just to let you know you state you have 10 defense, but then later on you say its 1.

Typo, my defense level IS 10

At such low lvl I"d just do something like hill giants. However as you move up a bit I"d definetally ook for a dragon you can safespot....

First they came to fishing

and I didn't speak out because I wasn't fishing

 

Then they came to the yews

and I didn't speak out because I didn't cut yews

 

Then they came for the ores

and I didn't speak out because I didn't collect ores

 

Then they came for me

and there was no one left to speak out for me.

Bronze/Iron knives on yaks/rockcrabs are pretty good. Yaks can even make you some mediocre money.

From 40-60 I highly reccomend you do the BioHazard quest, allowed you to use "King Lathas' Training Ground" There are ogres there in a cell, they cant hit you, but you can hit them. They drop herbs and seeds. Big bones aswell. Not too far from Ardy north bank. Also, I recomend you used iron knvies, but, if you want pure profit, a sling is sufficient,.

Cannon something in multicombat until you can use chins.

I feel like I should reiterate this. It's the only viable way to train range. Make money until you can afford 43 prayer and cannonballs/chins. Using iron knives anywhere is a terrible idea.

Wow, linear playstyle, much? What's the point in RS weaponry if everyone just uses 1 type of weapon? Jagex should already remove those? (Or finally start nerfing that cannon & chin xp to make it more comparable to other methods).

That's one reason why they're reworking the entire combat system.

Are you saying we should be using lower xp/hr methods just because the game is designed in a way that leaves only one best method? Design issues really don't come into this, the best way to train ranged is through cannoning/steel titaning right now, and that's what matters to the OP.
