#Is it worth it to BURST Nechs?

I'm only level 82 magic. I have a Nech task (138) and I find meleeing them takes a very long time. Is it worth it to burst them? The best I have is Ice Burst, which is only the level 70 multi-targeting spell. My next multi-target isn't until Smoke Barrage at 86.

Should I:
A.) Burst Them.
B.) Melee Them (Tedious, but I will do it if it's genuinely that good.)
C.) Skip Them

Thanks! 🙂

so D) you can smoke barrage at 82 magic using divine magic pots

#

but melee is more efficient

Tower nechs are even better once you unlock the offering spells, if you plan on doing a lot of slayer consider routing to 90 rc for stew boosting a bunch with scar essence

Thanks! I'll keep that in mind! Thanks to you both. I'm currently just doing the ones in Kourend haha.

but definitely 100% never melee the kourend ones no matter what you choose

Is meleeing them in tower efficient just for the seed drops?

Melee xp + seeds + prayer

In the case that I'm:

  • 99 farming
  • 92 herb banked (~94 including seeds)
  • 77 slayer (so planning for the future atm)
  • 68 RC (and do not plan to rush 90 before slayer)

Does it still make sense to melee them vs burst+chally

What if you don't have the RC for offering? How much less efficient would tower nechs get?

#

Enough to consider barraging more?

I did a ton of tasks banking ashes without offering

#

Or just using wraths from vorkath

#

Since I still don't have 90 rc OMEGALAUGHING

#

The melee XP herb seeds and extra gp is still worth imo

I guess it's pretty quick to get back with slayer ring

#

Probably still so even if u just cba and use sanctifier

#

I used slayer ring and karamja gloves to bank
