what would 70 range cost if you picked up your arrows P2P

Starting from what level?

level 1

Ok, so from level1 to level70 you need 737,627 XP.

 

 

 

737627 / 4 = You needing 184406.75 successful points of damage (assuming using accurate where you'll gain 4xp per damage).

 

 

 

First we buy arrows. Bronze = cheap and best.

 

From the shop I think they're 6gp each so 1k bronze = 6k coins.

 

 

 

Ok, so we kill 97 chickens to get to level10. w00ty!

 

 

 

So thats 291 hit points you done. Shall we assume, since you're picking up arrows that you lose say 50% (worst case). It makes calculations simpler.

 

 

 

For the purposes of my sanity :P we'll assume that after buying another 1k bronze + left overs you'll be able to get to lvl20 killing chickens again or zombies (30hp).

 

 

 

Now at lvl20 you should still have some bronze left but again, stock up another 1k. I'm not a ranged expert by any shot so training places I have no idea, but zombies in varrock sewers can't harm you but its a long run to your arrows, yet there are safe spots, either way exp.

 

 

 

So 3k arrows bought and used you should be nearing 30 and for the purposes of worst case senario i'll add another 1k to get your to lvl30 for sure.

 

 

 

So you've now spent 24k to get to lvl30 (ish ;) ).

 

 

 

Upgrade your bow etc for more hitting power but keep using bronze, they'll break more but are so cheap its not even funny.

 

 

 

Worst case, 5-6k arrows to get you to 50.

 

 

 

So woot level50 and spent 60k on arrows, and picked them ALL up (ouch).

 

 

 

50-60 is your next hard slog and arrow quantities will go even higher. Complete plague city quest and train at ogres in kings training ground. Easy safe spot, no melee ppl allowed and only a door standing between you and your fallen arrows.

 

 

 

50-60 --- We'll estimate 7-8k arrows. Worst case.

 

 

 

Total spent so far: 108k

 

 

 

Gratz, 60 range, a magic bow, some d-hide armor and you're well away. You'll be hitting about 7-8's with your Bronze arrows now :D and should be killing quite quickly.

 

 

 

60-70 --- For the purposes of worst case, doubling the amount of arrows. 14k bronze. Probably not needed as you're likely to have a couple of k's spare from previous levels.

 

 

 

Well done, 70 range, go grab ur magic bow or crystal bow, some black dhide and head off to barrows as you've just spent around 192k + extra costs of armor and bows.

 

 

 

I'll remind you though that with bronze arrows it'd be much much quicker to simply leave them on the ground and train faster but your choice dependant on your time.

 

 

 

My calculations are probably wayyyy off but hopefully give you an estimate or at least a maximum.

its pretty cheap but will take months if you pick up arrows..

I'd advise knives if you're starting from level 1 at the lower levels . . . hits more often, even though it's low. And I'd just fletch/smith your own arrows/knives/darts, it's way cheaper and you get your fletching up, which can be used for moneymaking later (i.e. fletch yew longs, string, high alch. repeat process until rich).

Around 15k - 22k bronze outta do it. :wink:

 

 

 

Got from 63 - 74 ranged with 10k bronze.
