The only worthwhile ultimates are Berserk (general slaying) and Massacre/Deadshot (point dps).

 

And metamorphoses.

I'm not sure Metamorphosis is worth it. It's only a 25% boost afaik.

My gut says it's more than 25%, considering I hit like 4500s with conc blast when meta'd/ovl'd/torment. But I don't have hard numbers.

Okay, then Meta is (probably) worth it also. Wee, three useful ults!

where is the best place to slay waterfiends? i just got a 240 task.

 

do you lose slayer reward progress if you do social slayer? a friend said that you do, but i doubt it. i don't want to lose my progress.

 

are steadfast boots better than torva?

 

It now gives a 10% boost to damage, limited to an average speed single handed weapon of the same tier, distributed across the different pieces, when wearing the whole set excluding the shield.

 

does this mean that bandos damage bonus only applies to level 70 weapons?

It means that it gives the equivalent of 10% of tier 70 weapon damage.

 

and no, steads are almost always (always? idk about boots) worse then torva, with the possible exceptions being tanking nex/kk/vorago

DK drops (solo/LS): 66 hatchets, 14 archer rings, 13 berserker rings, 17 warrior rings, 12 seerculls, 13 mud staves, 7 seers rings

QBD drops: 1 kite, 2 visages, 4 dragonbone kits, 3 effigies, lots of crossbow parts

CR vs. CLS threads always turn into discussions about penis size.
...
It's not called a Compensation Longsword for nothing.

I've sent a 12k combat mission to have Aiel assassinated (poor bastard isn't even Pincers-tier difficulty).

Bandos would be about equal to void. And yes, the damage boost makes Torva boots better than Steadfast boots.

Mace the fiends.

 

Only top, legs and shield affect accuracy, which is otherwise based on weapon + level.

As for metamorphosis - It also saves on rune costs as it's free casts. When barraging that matters..

 

20 sec active / 60 sec cooldown = 25% less runes used, and that's ignoring the damage boost even.

 

Using a staff and using 3.6 second intervals on a staff (6 ticks) it saves the runes for 25% of casts.

For 2h that is 500 blood runes saved, for dual wield .

 

Using a wand (2.4 sec, 1500 casts an hour) and book (2.4sec, 1500 casts an hour) that means 3000 casts an hour for 6000 blood runes used, of which 1500 blood runes are saved.

 

This is a significant cost impact on training...

Going through treks as fast as possible, evading stupidly slow event (swamp boaty) by using the predictive abilities. Rolayne gets them at 20, Smiddi only at 90 or something, so for Smiddi, just rush the hardest path you care to bother with.

You can, stats aren't that important anyway, if you have 90 attack + drygores with turm/ovl killing is a formality.

 

You bring overload/renewal, yak scrolls (bank Graar's bones), some super restores, some rocktails. I don't know the exact ratio, try 1:1 and go from there?

Well the easiest way is to send them twice a day, mornings and evenings. The longer missions are definitely much better than the shorter, rewards-wise.
