Glacor question

[Tim]

Currently these are my skills, and at 16m cash, it makes it a "bit" hard to buy ovl and soul split etc.

 

 

So I'm asking, what would I need to kill Glacors, and if they're both doable (eoc and all that) and profitable over time.

 

Elsewise, what else could I do? kinda sick of being near max cb and being piss-broke, unable to join boss teams due to todays requirements. Also, I only have 15k tokens as when I got hacked a few months back they spent all them on either exp and a nature staff, so chances are chaotics won't happen.

 

EDIT: also I have 5m sitting in MTK, dunno if that'll help.

Maybe you could get 95 slayer and go kill some ganodermic beasts, they are afkable and still give hefty profit.

Yes you can do glacors for money. I'm not sure if magic or ranged is faster now, I'd just try magic. Use a high-tier magic weapon (Armadyl battlestaff is good).

 

You need to get one chaotic still, for Bandos god wars and generally all melee, which is the maul. For ranged, royal crossbow, for magic, ABS.

 

What also helps is getting a higher summoning level and dumping your elite diary xp into that as well.

 

I would discourage thinking of yourself as 'near maxed combat'. Maxed combat primarily is: steel titan, overloads, turmoil, all equipment/abilities available, basic equipment (Barrows, maul, rxb, pps/abs) and the relevant quests done. Secondary are: untradeable equipment (goliaths, imbued rings, void, Ports armour etc.), 99s, high-tier buyable equipment (glacor boots, Zaryte bow, spirit shields etc.). You lack four of the important, primary indicators of max combat. That is not a criticsm of you or your account, but an explanation of what, in terms of kill speed and performance, is important in combat, taking "max combat = max kill speed" as baseline.

I haven't much quantitative information to share other than to say that I don't have soul split or overloads/extremes, but I've been going to glacors in Ganos and CStaff and quite easily making a profit. Not a huge one, but it does profit. Instead of taking an inventory full of prayer pots (for SS) I take all rocktails+healer familiar except for two prayer flasks, one renewal flask and a mage flask, use the right protect prayer and augury. Can usually get 15-20 kills per trip, exit via the fairy ring, restock at Zanaris bank, rinse and repeat.

 

I suppose a Royal Crossbow/Range flask setup would work too.

You can pretty easily do Glacors in Void Mage, with fire surge (Naturally) get a chaotic staff. I kill around 3.5 glacors /ovl sip so you'll get around 2 kills every 5 minutes if you're fast.

[Tim]

are glacors themselves still tanks to kill? or did jagex fix that? last I heard they were almost unkillable.

[Quyneax]

They should be fixed now.
