Ever since the release of the controversial Evolution of Combat update, the difficulty to train combat has increased to an unprecedented level, i just came back recently after quitting for over a year. Now i want to know what are the best NPCs for me to train combat on.

ftfy

 

 

Glacors, GWD bosses, Automatons, Waterfiends, general high-level Slayer are all excellent methods of gaining combat experience.

Combat has been much faster for me since EOC.

Go dungeoneering, get 100 k tokens, buy main hand chaotic claws. Use that with an EE or EEE and you're at the second best dps in the game for melee. Use this to go kill whatever the hell you want besides maybe mithril dragon (they may be the only non boss npc that those weapons aren't accurate enough on). Waterfiends are a good idea, great exp and crimson charms.

 

For range invest in the highest level crossbow you can (rune if you don't want to use dragon) and head to less demons. At level 70 invest in a crystal bow. Once you hit 80 spend a day making a mil and buy the parts to make a royal crossbow. Look up a youtube guide on forging it and make it. Congratz, you now have the best range weapon in the game. Use this to go back to waterfiends for the same exp/hr as you were getting with melee and more crimson charms.

 

For magic buy a master wand and grilific orb, get a bonecrusher with a prayer neckalce from dungeoneering and if you feel like it the charming imp. Go to waterbirth island and burst/barrage dagannoths for the best magic exp and good close to the best crimson charms.

 

 

Or you could just do slayer. Either way you're looking at training combat roughly 2-3x faster than you could have pre-eoc.

 

Typed all that up and then you replied F2P

 

For free to play, lesser demons are probably your best bet. I've not been free to play for years though so I am not the best person to ask.

Spiders are good as far as I know. Not sure if that's the deadly red ones or stronghold of security.

[mlskid]

Deadly red spiders with a rune warhammer were the way to go last i checked.

[brunokiller]

Isn't a 2H sword better (you can't use dual wield in f2p)?

[Ammako]

You're definitely going to want to wait until after this week's EoC update before even considering red spiders.

Why? Do you think the update will make spiders so much faster that you couldn't make a dent in your hours required until then?

Have you tried killing red spiders with weapons available to F2P?

'cause if you did, you would know exactly why I am saying that.

[Quyneax]

Maybe it would be useful if you actually answered the question next time. I had not yet tried when I posted, and you could easily have mentioned why spiders are a bad idea. Be constructive.

 

Anyway, you're right that spiders aren't good in f2p, being 136 cb so probably ~65 def. But just say outright why, people don't have all the new tiers internalized yet.
