I'm currently on the crafting grind, planning to go until I can craft all of the zenyte jewelery. Would it be worth it to craft a fury, or would it be better to just skip it and go straight for the zenyte jewelery?

I imagine it depends on content and if you plan on grinding something that drops onyxes/can sell runes.
Fury is a good defensive ammy but I’m not sure the “meta” currently

Yeah just skip the fury it's only good in niche spots

I recommend skipping it entirely, to the point that I think crafting one is a noob trap
it is a niche amulet. A blood fury is strong but has its own list of concerns (it takes really long to get blood shards)
and the regular fury is kinda just bad most of the time, especially if you have access to zenytes
id make a fury only if you plan on upgrading it to a blood fury quite soon after

Heyo, but late to this but could you elaborate why?
If you haven't got Zenytes yet, and you're not including a Str Ammy for melee, why wouldn't you make one? It's not hard to make so why not etc

The argument is it isn’t a big upgrade over a glory and costs ~3m in runes for an amulet that you’ll rarely use once you’re done with crafting

It's also often worse than a strength ammy when meleeing, and you ideally make torture first.
toxic ether
I think the strength amulet point is a poor argument since there are almost no situations where that’s the case unless you’re fighting sand crabs or something
worthy bramble
It's true basically the entire time you're slaying pre torture. Which shouldn't be very long, but it'll be true for longer if you punt away your money and an onyx for a fury instead of a torture
toxic ether
Melee accuracy is actually very good which is the main reason torture is so strong

On slayer mobs I think str ammy wins the vast majority of the time?
It's not like 93 crafting is that hard to get anyway.

not hard, but its long and boring, imagine doing fun content inbetween
iron trellis
There are zero time crafting methods
Also slayer being fun is subjective, although I do like it
fickle hill
id imagine most players arent going to be clicking rocks and molten glass for dozens of hours before dipping into pvm - even if it is more efficient
worthy bramble
Totally reasonable to do that fun content with a glory or str ammy over punting away your resources for something you're going to replace. At least the other two are effectively free.
That being said this discussion happens a ton and a ton of people will continue to make a fury so idk if it matters.
fickle hill
ill always use fury over str ammy, fury is just iconic for me, str ammy feels bad, maybe im just oldschool
iron trellis
Considering OP asked about skipping I assume they have the tolerance to go straight for 93+. Preferences may vary
toxic ether
I do think if gp isn’t an object for you then making fury isn’t the worst move in the world since eventually blood fury is nice for high level pvm
But the argument is efficiently you’re doing crafting when gp DOES matter

fair point

I’ll mention that runite ore does give a lot of tokul for Onyxs. Save your chaoses. IMO
iron trellis
For a shadow? You can buy chaoses super fast. I'd rather take the rune darts

literally better to smith rune ore into an alchable and then buy chaos runes

for melee its worse than a str ammy
for range and mage its the same as a glory
you're paying 3m gp in tokkul to get a few prayer and defensive bonuses when ranging/maging only, which tend to not even matter (e.g. doesnt save a ppot sip on a barrage task, and you're not really tanking while ranging or maging), plus itll be obsolete quite soon after
a lot of people struggle to realise that, even if they do make a fury, and they are gearing up in the bank to go for some melee combat, choosing to equip the fury over a strength ammy is actively slowing them down. It's not like "one is more expensive but slightly better" or "not everybody wants to train to a fury" or something like that - even if you somehow did make it, choosing to equip it is a downgrade
so I recommend not making it in the first place, its main purpose is decorating your bank until you have blood shards
lapis estuary
Ahh I get you
I always see a lot of efficiency advice that's basically like "don't do this it wastes 3 hours of your time towards max" but it's like, okay, but that's nothing, so I don't care.
That's how I viewed this because it's like, some people might have the gp and also not want to grind out the zenytes yet etc.
But this is advice I can get behind because it's an actual decrease in stats and actively slows down your progression
