ikraz66 Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 For the first time today, i decided to go to the experiments to train. Everyone claims that they are some of the best exp for combat in the game. I must say though, that i was less than impressed. I know they have low defense, and never hit, but they're also far apart and extremely busy, even on an empty world!!! They don't auto attack, so you cant afk train there, and lastly, there are no drops/rewards for training there. Rock crabs arent that great either, although they are agressive for 15 minutes or so. However, I think i know what the new best training spot is now (other than pest control). That spot is the yaks on Nietznot. They are fairly empty on most servers, are very close together, with a fast respawn time, give the same exp as rock crabs, with lower defense, and have a max hit of 1 or 2! In addition, the hides and hair is ok for crafting exp. OR, you could train combat with slayer, like i usually do! Proud owner of a Quest cape!

lordfan21 Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 Experiments are mainly used by pure with little or no defense. Other monsters that are great xp such as bandits, ankous, etc. aren't really a viable option for them. Z0mg look im so kool even mods tok to me.

munchkinmage Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 Experiments and Rock crabs are popular because of all the 1 defense pures. They're not that great otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ikraz66 Posted February 24, 2007 Author Share Posted February 24, 2007 Hey, even 1 def pures can use pc and yaks. I'm pretty sure you can beat fremmenik trials with 1 def. Proud owner of a Quest cape! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atronic92 Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 :-$ Shhh.... don't let the secret get out of my new favorite training spot... And yeah, I've tried experiments before, and they are really bad! "We will certainly not be gaining money or members with this update.

das1330 Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 it would be difficult with no prayer or defence though, unless you had 85+ striength and attack. also, experiments are the best xp outside of pest control, IF you can get a good spot. the less crowded places might give some drops, but its nothing worth being there for.

nemesis1 Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 Hey, even 1 def pures can use pc and yaks. I'm pretty sure you can beat fremmenik trials with 1 def. 1def pures don't do fremmenik trials though :roll: and you got to do fremmenik trials before you can enter neitiznot \ Also, I think you're a bit too high for training at experiments/rock crabs, they're really got xp for low lvls like pures \ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macmaster92 Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 I never trained at the experiments or the rock crabs that much. I liked using moss giants. Now though i mainly stay with pc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure you can beat fremmenik trials with 1 def. 1def pures don't do fremmenik trials though :roll: and you got to do fremmenik trials before you can enter neitiznot \ Also, I think you're a bit too high for training at experiments/rock crabs, they're really got xp for low lvls like pures \ are you sure you cant do fremmenik trials on a pure? On that big fight, defense shouldnt matter, because you cant wear armor anyway, and i got hit almost every time even WITH defense. Just bring like 26 sharks and a pure super set.

anonymouse_ Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 I've never trained at any of those since it seems like a waste of time for me. I prefer ankous over anything else now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_drunk_dude Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 rock crabs drop nice TT scrolls (YAY TT!!!) and they can lead to book pages, very useful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevepole Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 you should produce some data on this topic to see how much xp you get per hour for each training area you talk about so you can back up what you claim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bludragon124 Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 Yes, they are overrated. Train on something else: you aren't a pure, so it shouldn't be hard. I hate rock crabs, expiriments, I hate them all :) Noted raw mackerel drop... Wtfh? Always buying: Watermelon seeds, 2K each. Strawberry seeds, 800 each. Contact Via PM on forums.

drewen Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 They don't auto attack, so you cant afk train there You do know that is against rules, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum_Myr Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 Technically, its not against the rules... You are using the games mechanism to your advantage. And AFK doesn't mean leave completely, it means browsing the forums and playing the game at the same time.

Celt23 Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 Expirements are terrible. Always so many people there and there's only a few monsters. Plus they take forever to respawn. I think the shadow warriors under the legend's guild are alot better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
