Anyone else absolutely love training range with Chinchompas?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(EDIT: See a previous posting about Chinchompa power in PC: http://forum.tip.it/viewtopic.php?t=585910 )

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I've gone from 64 to 80 Range in the 3-4 weeks with next-to-no effort using Red Chinchompas in Pest Control (as a secondary weapon), although it has been rather expensive (working out to be about 2gp per xp so far, although with each level the gp/xp cost goes down. Considering cannonballs are 10gp/xp, Chinchompas get you xp sooo much faster and sooo much cheaper).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I was thinking of trying to get a crew together, tentatively named "Royal Chinchompadiers" (unless we can come up with a better name...), maybe start up a forum, where fellow Chinchompadiers can exchange training ideas and techniques, have training events.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I've got an idea as to how to really maximize our training using those Rodentos de Morir, but wanna keep it a bit quiet for now, lest word get out ;-)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I also worry that Jagex, once they realize the power of these creatures, are going to tone them down significantly.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Like when cannonballs used to do 2xp per hit, but are now 1xp per hit (I could have sworn they were 2xp per hit some months ago, but correct me if I'm wrong).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you're interested, give a holler. If there's enough interest, I'm going to set up a forum for the Royal Chinchompadiers, and we'll see where it takes us :D

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks in advance.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

EDIT: forgive me if this is being seen as some kind of recruitment thread. At this point, I'm just getting a feel for the level Chinchompa-thusiasm out there. Should I actually start something up, I'll post in the Clan Recruitment section.

Get a 25 group to Pc, don't attack portals and let the monsters build up, making sure someone is healing knight? Don't concentrate on winning, just hitting groups of monsters for great exp.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Seems like it would be very fast exp with a full game.

That's one idea I hadn't thought of. But there are others... :D

i would be interested in joining, but shouldnt it be de muerto on their name? anyways i love ranging and pc so maybe if you get something together pm me. i got 79 range btw

very good idea you have but i dont like range very much

bandit

very good idea you have but i dont like range very much

 

 

 

I hated range too.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Until I discovered the Red Chinchompa :twisted:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

but shouldnt it be de muerto on their name

 

 

 

Probably. I like making up my own latinate-english terms. Like "Buencho nachos" or "Au Revlon" and stuff. I'm kinda dumb like that.

Chinchompa brevicaudata

 

 

 

Chinchompa lanigera

 

 

 

those are the scientific names for chinchilla except i made it chinchompa :thumbsup:

nvm

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

i would join ya, but not really into range at the time so maybe once i start up again :

I was actually pondering to make somethign similar like this for my clan... (some sort of grenadiers unit)

nvm

Well, if we start this up, keep us in mind.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If this works out as I'm hoping it will, most people will get really into range training...

How good are they exactly? I haven't tried them yet and have no idea what they do. #-o

=O wow, a game with hundreds of monsters and people attacking them not to win but for experience would be incredible ranging xp.

but what would be better exp from the chinchompas or from the points the mini game gives?

Well there was a post not too long ago where someone worked out the average exp per chin was something ridiculous like 1k ea if enough monsters are hit hard...

but what would be better exp from the chinchompas or from the points the mini game gives?

 

 

 

Well, the idea that I (the original poster) am working on does not actually involve pest control. So that's not entirely material at this point.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

While the other idea has some potential, the primary training exercise I envision is quite different.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I still need to run a few tests, and would like to keep it under wraps until I get it up and running successfully.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'm just trying to gauge the number of folks both interested, and willing to shell out 1-2 million on exploding rodents :D

2gp/xp? Doesn't sound like it'll cost a lot. :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Before I do anything, how many chinchompas have you used?

I'm not entirely sure, as I've been doing it on and off for 3-4 weeks, not really keeping good records on it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'd estimate about 8K Chinchompas/ 2 million gp's worth, to get about 1.5 million range xp (64-80). Granted, there's about 400K xp in PC bonuses in there, too.

The more I read this topic the more I want to do it. Put me down for any sort of clan or group you decide to make, but i'd have to buy the Chins first.

i got it u get like 100+ people to be the "crash dummies" then you have like 5 people that have like 1000 chinchompas that use them on the middle person and the "crash dummies" have inventory full of sharks since wildy is too dangerous you could do it in TzHaar fight pits=massive exp :ohnoes:

lol SHHH!

Another reason I want to hop on this is because I fear one of two things may happen:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1. Prices for Chinchompas, as fewer and fewer people are doing hunting and stockpiling Chinchompas, will begin rising dramatically. If people are willing to pay 10gp/xp for cannonballs, imagine how that will inflate the price of Chinchompas i(currently around 2gp/xp) f they become widely used?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What's worse, the higher your range level, the better the hitting, the better the damage, and more valuable the Chinchompas will be. I really think the current market for these critters is at the floor right now, while Chinchompa power is still largely unrealized by Runescapers as a whole.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Over time, I expect the market for Chinchompas to fluctuate dramatically, but will eventually settle on a price. I suspect that price will be significantly higher than it currently is now (200-300).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2. Jagex may tone these puppies down, granting only 2 or maybe 1 xp/hit like they do with cannonballs.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I just checked and realize I went from 73-80 in 8 days. Good gawd.

ohh good investment buy like ur whole net worth of chinchompas then sell em for like the max amount they sell for in 1 or 2 monthes

*runs off training hunting for the chinchompas*

LOL. Four days ago I was 32 hunting. I realized what these things could do, how much money I'm spending, how much they're gonna be worth, and realized I gotta get to work on this skill.
