Ankous any good for ranged?

Ankous are awesome for ranging!! But you have survive around 10 min of them auto attacking you. So I melee them till they stop autoing, and then safe spot them behind teh skellys on the ground in the room with only lvl 75 ankous.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Plus, if you're going for the drops, their drops all stack (except skull piece and black robes) so you can stay in there for a very long time without having to leave as long as you have the arrows.

On the drops:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lessers: Rare chance of a rune med, best I've seen from them is a mith chain. Several other armour/weapon items from steel up, plus runes (fire, chaos, death).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ankou: Not so rare sceptre piece (Left skull) drop, a strong F2P source of law runes, plus some other stuff like mithril ore (noted), essence (noted), addy arrows and highly variable coins.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I have a horrible feeling tha Jagex will nerf the better of the two safe spots (Ankou), though maybe it's just 1000's of fire strikes practice that makes me say it's easy to control. The one in the ankou only room is very hard to gain control of, my lower level sceptre bashers died many times trying, before I knew of the other one.

I would go with anakou's for a few reasons the safespots are fairly easy to get down after there done auto attacking. Almost never crowded, and the mith ores alone can make you more money than rune meds plus its nice for smithing.

Just an average player with a horrible name...

Yah, if the safespots aren't always safe, they aren't really a safespot. more of a block after they've become friendly. (about 13 minutes, give or take)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I personally feel that lessers are far far better for drops, and based on the dificulty of getting safe, probably xp as well. Ankous are just too hard to block, and I have yet to see an actual safe spot that isn't just a block.
