no offence, but that's a horrible guide. Too simple, and the monsters are too low (training on scorpions??) and theyget too hard (lessers will own a 60)

[prof_fleb]

and remember that it isn't the monsters lvl, but its hitpoints, you get exp depening on how much you hit, so a monster with tons of health and low defence is perfect (too bad we cant kill pures whenever we want to they fit that profile perfectly) a good choice is whatever you can 1 hit (chickens, men, goblins) that way you'll get lvls fast and wont have to bank too much

 

 

 

in short: lessers are horrible exp!

when u reach lvl 50 train on lvl 24 zombies in the varrock manhole sewers

 

 

 

when u reach lvl 60 train on lessers (lesser demons)

 

 

 

when u reach lvl 70+ i'd reccommed u to become a member

 

 

 

Aaahh, I see, now thats makes perfect sense. About the same amount of sense as:

 

 

 

If you see the red light, push the upper button.

 

If you see the blue light, push the lower button.

 

If you see the green light, eat a carrot.

[kll29]

train your attack to lvl 8 on dummys

 

 

 

then train on lvl 2 goblins until lvl 25

 

 

 

fish food in al-kahrid then train on al-kahrid warriors

 

 

 

when u reach lvl 40 train on lvl 14 scorpions

 

 

 

when u reach lvl 50 train on lvl 24 zombies in the varrock manhole sewers

 

 

 

when u reach lvl 60 train on lessers (lesser demons)

 

 

 

when u reach lvl 70+ i'd reccommed u to become a member

 

 

 

Aah, ok I see now thats makes perfect sense. About the same amount of sense as:

 

 

 

If you see the blue light, push the upper button.

 

If you see the red light, push the lower button.

 

If you see the green light, eat a carrot.

Oopsie, now that was what we call a double post, I got a debug message but it still got through. Please dont forever hate me.

No sale. I had a slayer assignment of a hundred and odd lessers when I was at lv 70 and I was going through so much food using melee it wasn't funny. I don't reckon lessers are any use until 80+cb minimum, probably 85+. Moss giants would maybe be alright at 60 cb if you had full rune (chain is better than plate because moss giants use a crush attack), you would still need a bit of food though.

It depends on what armour 'n weaponry you got, I started making lesser trips in my 50's with full rune and a rune long [ I thought I was pretty cool, less did I know ;) ]. Head of to Karamja, fished a full inventory of lobs, got in, sold the loot I got in the islands general store, and repeated. Until that one day I got a rune med drop, got as excited as a dog with three *youknowwhats*, went screamin, didn't pay attention to the last lessy I had to run past, died and lost part of my rune armoury.

 

 

 

I never ever entered those lousy caves again.

i'm lvl 85, still horrible training

[The Observer]

fine try this:

 

From combat lvl 3-15

 

 

 

Step 1:

 

 

 

Go to the attack dummies located across from the East Varrock Bank.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Select the attack option from the combat menu

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Keep attacking the dummies until you are around lvl 8. After this you should be around combat lvl 5 or 6. After you have attacked the dummies to this level, you cannot attack them anymore to gain experience.

 

 

 

Step 2:

 

 

 

When you have reached attack lvl 8, you should head to the goblin house Northeast of Lumbridge.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here you will work on raising your combat lvl to 15 by fighting the lvl 2 goblins. You should work on your strength levels next.

 

 

 

Select the strength option from the combat menu:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You should raise your strength to at least 22. This normally takes a little over an hour, depending on how many people are in the house. Be sure to keep the door closed on the goblin house so they will not leave the building.

 

 

 

After obtaining 22 str, select the defense option from the combat menu:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You will need to raise your defense to lvl 5. After you have reached lvl 5 defense, switch back to the attack lvl, and raise it to at least 10.

 

 

 

Congratulations! You have just reached combat lvl 15-16.

[The Observer]

From combat lvl 15-25

 

 

 

Step 1:

 

 

 

First off you need to head to the goblin village Northwest of Fallidor.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

*Note: You will need to bring some food, and also equip the proper armor and weapon (which is steel at this point, black for weapon) if you can afford it. If you are low on food you may head up to the monastary (choas temple) and the monks will heal you.

 

 

 

You should start by raising your defense to lvl at least 20.

 

Then also raise you attack to lvl 20, as well.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If at anytime you get low on food, be sure to take some time out and visit the bank in Fallidor to buy or take food out of your bank account.

 

 

 

When you have reached the desired goals for defense and attack, concentrate on raising your strentgh to lvl 25.

 

This should roughly take around 2 hours to complete.

[The Observer]

From combat lvl 25-30

 

 

 

Now that you are getting a stronger character you now have a couple of options for the next step.

 

 

 

*Note: I would advise that you upgrade your armor...if you have the money to do so. At this level you should purchase full Mith armor. I would suggest a Mith scimitar as your weapon.

 

 

 

If you do not have the money, please refer to The Ultimate Runescape Millions Guide, if you have it. If you do not have the Millions Guide, click on features (to the left) to view what the guide has to offer.

 

 

 

Option 1: Dwarven Mines

 

 

 

Head to the Dwarven Mines:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Do not enter the mines. The best spot to raise your levels are outside the entrance of the mine:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here you will face lvl 10 dwarves. Be sure that you have plently of food before you begin to battle them.

 

 

 

Work on your strength first. You need to raise your strength lvl to at least 35.

 

 

 

Continue fighting the dwarves, and raise your attack and defense to lvl 30.

 

 

 

 

 

Option 2: Al Kharid

 

 

 

Head to the Al Kharid palace:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here you will fight lvl 9 Al Kharid warriors.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

*Note: When you attack one warrior, all other warriors in the area will attack you as well! BE SURE YOU HAVE FOOD! This can be a quicker way to gain exp., but just be careful. Don't hesitate to run if you are low in health.

 

 

 

You should concentrate on raising your strength to lvl 35, then raise your attack and defense to 30.

 

 

 

After completing these goals you should be around combat lvl 30.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Congratulations! You have just reached combat lvl 30.

[The Observer]

From combat lvl 35-45

 

 

 

Now that you are getting a stronger character you now have a couple of options for the next step.

 

 

 

*Note: I would advise that you upgrade your armor...if you have the money to do so. At this level you should purchase full Addy armor. I would suggest an Addy scimitar or Battle Axe as your weapon.

 

 

 

If you do not have the money, please refer to The Ultimate Runescape Millions Guide , if you have it. If you do not have the Millions Guide, click on features (to the left) to view what the guide has to offer.

 

 

 

Option 1: Dwarven Mines/Al Kharid Mine

 

 

 

At these 2 locations you should focus on fighting the lvl 14 scorpions. Although the drop absolutly nothing, they are a very easy kill for the experience gained.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

At this point you should choose what ability your character should favor. To build an all around character, I would suggest raising your strength 5 lvls, then raise your attack 5 lvls, then work on defense for 5 lvls. Then continue the process. If you have a combat calculator you can very easily determine when you will level up.

 

 

 

 

 

Option 2: Varrock Sewers

 

 

 

Here you should focus on attacking the lvl 18 Skeletons just past the zombies.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Option 3: Ice Caves- mid 30's to 45

 

 

 

At this lvl you should focus on the lvl 28 Hobgoblins.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Continue this strategy until you have reached at least lvl 45.

 

 

 

Congratulations! You have just reached combat lvl 40-45.

[The Observer]

From combat lvl 45-60

 

 

 

At this point, you should pretty much have the hang of combat training, listed below you will find some locations of good monsters to train on.

 

 

 

 

 

Cave South of Rimmington/Ice Caves .

 

 

 

Continue training here until you are at least lvl 53:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

DO THE DRAGON SLAYER QUEST!

 

 

 

It may seem scary to fight the dragon at first. I would suggest finding a quest guide for this quest if you are fairly new to Runescape. The first time I faught him I was lvl 51, it took all that I had to beat him but I did!

 

 

 

After you have beat this quest you can now wear Full Rune. I would also suggest buying a Rune scimmy or Battle Axe as well.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Karjama Island: lvl 50-60

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

At these levels you should focus on the lvl 34 Deadly Red Spiders. However, for a good challenge, bring lots of food and fight the lvl 82 Lesser Demons. They take alot longer to kill, but the experience is great.

[The Observer]

there better?????????

[Marvel Titan]

Mossies are the best monster to train on from 60 to atleast 90 before lessers demons plus it helps with your prayer lvl unlike lesser demons who drop ashes!

[The Observer]

there are lots of peeps at the mossies tho... lessers worked for me because of my def lvl i guess... but u also get good fishin and cookin xp from killin lessers also... i went from lvl 77 to lvl 80 in 1 and a half days!

[prof_fleb]

just the one correction, you can wear rune before the dragon slayer quest, the only thing you cant is the body plate mail, so you could have a full helm, runechain, rune legs and rune kiteshield before you begin the quest

[Goobore]

...for a good challenge, bring lots of food and fight the lvl 82 Lesser Demons.

 

They take alot longer to kill, but the experience is great.

 

That's double edged advice.

 

 

 

Here's why:

 

Suppose monster "A" has 25 hitpoints and monster "B" has 75 hitpoints.

 

 

 

Now, since monster A is a lower level monster,

 

it's defense is weak as well and it's easy to hit and kill.

 

Suppose you can kill it in 15 seconds and earn 4*25 = 100 melee exp.

 

So if you had a plentiful supply of "A"'s then you could earn 24000 melee exp per hour.

 

 

 

Monster B, being a higher level monster,

 

has a higher defense and is harder than "A" to hit.

 

Suppose you can kill it in 60 seconds and earn 4*75 = 300 melee exp.

 

So if you had a plentiful supply of "B"'s then you could earn 18000 melee exp per hour.

 

 

 

So, all other things being equal, you would earn more exp in a hour when fighting the lower level monster.

 

 

 

However, all things are not equal. Namely, higher level monsters are,

 

in general, not as plentiful as lower level monsters.

 

So you would have more dead time waiting for a higher level to spawn

 

and hope that another player doesn't get the monster first.

 

Hence, the 18000 exp per hour is probably optimistic.

 

 

 

Also, you could use very little food when fighting the lower level monster.

 

But you would use a lot more food when fighting the higher monster.

 

Hence, you would have, again, more dead time running to the bank

 

for food when fighting the higher level monster.

 

So, your chances of reaching 18000 per hour are even less.

 

 

 

The bottom line is that since you earn exp per hit that you do,

 

and not according to the level of the monster, you will probably earn exp

 

faster whening fighting monsters much lower than you own level.

 

 

 

It all depends on how fast you can kill the monster.

 

Just go ahead and note your starting exp and then fight for 30 minutes.

 

Note your ending exp. Then do that for different monsters.

 

If a monster that gives 3x the exp takes longer than 3x to kill,

 

then you should fight the lower monster if you want the fasest exp.

 

 

 

Now, if you want the loot, then fight the higher level monsters.

 

Otherwise, you are probably better off fighting lower level monsters.

 

 

 

Hope this helps

 

 

 

 

 

Btw, monster "A" is similar to a Pirate outside the Blurite cave

 

and monster "B" is similar to a Lesser Demon.
