March 11, 201412 yr Hey pals Well I've recently returned to runescape after stopping playing a little after the kalphite king was released. What gear should I be using for slayer ect? These are my stats: I have 50m cash and maybe 15m of crap lying around I wouldn't mind spending on gear.Any gear worth grabbing? I'm also considering just saving for turmoil. Are the Player owned Ports armors worth getting? Are overloads and turmoils still essential? How much do the T90 weapons increase dps over chaotics? Is barrows still a decent enough armour for slayer? Should I try and use the weakness of every slayer monster? Edit: Atm I have duo chaotic cross bows, duo rapiers, maul and staff
March 12, 201412 yr T90 weapons are much better than T80 armor wise if you plan on using all three styles for slayer I would advise getting bandos/armadyl/subjugation armor and work towards a mighty slay helm(upgrade on the current slayer helm for more armor/lp and costs slay points) (edit): iirc t90 weapon upgrade is more dps than gwd armor->nex armor quest point cape achieved 2/13/14

Would drygores be better than chaotic cross bows for a range task? Better than a chaotic staff for a mage task?
March 12, 201412 yr with dual drygores you can for the most part ignore the combat triangle for slayer except for a few exceptions like the ascension monsters(ranged) and polypore dungeon monsters(magic) quest point cape achieved 2/13/14
March 12, 201412 yr If you're fairly far in Ports (far enough to have a decent supply of bones), you can get death lotus darts (t85) for a weapon, to tide you over until you get t90. You do need to train fletching for that a bit, which might not be what you returned to RS for :P. PoP armour is worth getting but not essential, overload/turmoil are essential but not as much as they used to be, barrows is OK for slayer in a sense, but not recommended, as GWD armours are better and do not degrade.

I think I'll buy turmoil soon, that and a yak are still first on my to do list. In the mean time I'll buy bandos/armadyl and eventually if I'm still playing save for drygores but since that will probably take forever I guess I'll get the darts. Thank you both!
March 12, 201412 yr farm runs/mtk cut the expense of drygores a good bit if you take the time to do them quest point cape achieved 2/13/14
