i currently have wolf boiled down to dashing kebbits, moonlight and sunlight antelopes as a way to efficiency farm hunter meats. they're really nice food

winged tangle
#

i'm only expert so have aco on falconry, red chin and salamanders

#

and moths

earnest lodge
#

it depnds what u want out of the content

bold bone
#

the sunfire splinters and moonlight antelope meat /moonlight antelope bolts are a nice addition tho

earnest lodge
#

imo if ur needing prayer pots i would just do diff content like sepulchre or contracts but its up to you

#

im not too sure how to set it up for those

#

hunter rumors can be good xp past 91 or good for da pet hunting

winged tangle
#

got pet at 67 kc xd

earnest lodge
#

well u can do rumors for the chin herbi pets also

bold bone
#

well, the idea is that the butterfly jars are super easy to get, same with the single-moths, but it's way too inefficient to just use single moths for prayer, while most os slayer can be easily served with double-moths, and double moths is single moth + any hunter meat

#

and cerberus specifically eats through prayer because of the prayerdrains

earnest lodge
#

prayer pots are really easy to get too and quicker toget

#

but u have to keep up with contracts then

bold bone
#

i'm perpetually out of rannarr seeds, and i'mm doing my hourlies

earnest lodge
#

sepulchre gives u ab 3.4k prayer pots (4) if u follow thru with it on agility

#

but that might be too out of the way for ur playstyle

bold bone
#

agility is currently not my most used skill

tiny tendon
#

Generally the rumours are real bad for prayer or food. If you start farming and agility early it's really difficult to run it of prayer potions. Id seriously consider doing those instead

#

Right now you are imo throwing good time after bad

bold bone
#

and i'm not doing any herblore until i finish that accursed necklace, but mastering mixology makes me wanna neck

tiny tendon
#

Good luck, if you don't solve your resource problem systemically you will run into it again and again and again

bold bone
#

i know resource problems are resource problems, it's quite annoying in-general

tiny tendon
#

It really isn't, with planning ahead these days resources are really free

#

The game throws a ton of cheap or free supplies at irons these days, but you've dodged several really good methods like farming contacts, sepulchre and zmi

#

ToA also gives a lot of seeds

bold bone
#

i'm doing farming contracts constantly.

why zmi?

tiny tendon
#

Zmi gives a lot of runes, which cuts slayer costs

earnest lodge
#

offering spells also

bold bone
#

ToA needs a good stab weapon.

but my dragon sword is kinda yikes

tiny tendon
#

The default mid level setup is bowfa + zammy hasta

bold bone
#

I-magine having a zammy hasta

#

you want another steam battlestaff?

vestal plinth
#

you are barely 2x dry on a fast boss

tiny tendon
#

Just get one, it took me 470 for one and 740 total for the second.

vestal plinth
#

just keep sending

tiny tendon
#

It's only a few hours these days, I had to do 5-9 kill melee trips

tardy sierra
#

doing slayer without prayer pots and then trying to do hunter rumors to make up for it is definitely a choice

bold bone
#

i'm doing 20kc trips with ranged, but any godwars dungeon is rather blood-rune intensive

tiny tendon
#

It should not be that expensive(?)

bold bone
#

you're sending blood barrages like it's nothing on the minions when you 3-stack them
at 4 bloods a cast and about 10-15 casts/kill that

tiny tendon
#

Id 2-stack but even then it's a few tens of barrages per kill at most

bold bone
#

you spend 40-ish blood runes/kc

tiny tendon
#

That's really low? Im sorry, I don't see the issue

#

We're talking like 2m gp worth of runes for droprate

bold bone
#

i'm a cheapskate

vestal plinth
#

dont be one then

tiny tendon
#

That's a terrible decision, good luck

vestal plinth
#

it looks to me that most of your issues are self imposed

# bold bone you're sending blood barrages like it's nothing on the minions when you 3-stack ...

You get back money too from the minions + boss
I do 90-kill trips at Zammy and usually end with around 840k in the inv
It's around 2.8k per cast, so that's 300 casts of blood barrage per 90 kills
That's 3.33 casts/kill
However, I don't use blood barrage every kill
In fact, I usually only use blood barrage for the first 30 mins of the 3-hour trip, and then sustain with food drops
So really I'm only casting blood barrage for about 15 kills out of 90, which means I can afford to use 20 casts/kill -- this is pretty much what you have cited

#

Are you not flicking or something? You should flick so that you take less damage and thereby both extend the trip and also save money by using blood barrage less often

bold bone
#

i freeze the meleer ontop of the ranger and flick mage/range

scarlet matrix
#

Just take out the mager and then flick the other two

#

Freezing meleer wastes time

bold bone
#

i tend to dip out once i have used 8 divine ranging pots

scarlet matrix
#

🤔 8 divine pots should be 80 kills/trip not 20

bold bone
#

8 doses of divine ranged, 2 pots

scarlet matrix
#

I see, that is indeed 20

#

IMO just flick a bit and you will need way less barrage

#

Pipe spec also helps

bold bone
#

i cba juggling too much dropped food cuz i don't use a paid instance.

scarlet matrix
#

I did all of my KC juggling 😛 it's not that bad

#

Dropping food is a horrible idea, that is why you are wasting so much money

#

Ironically you are wasting more money by barraging than by just paying 150k for the instance

bold bone
#

you juggle like 15-16 sharks/tuna tatos

scarlet matrix
#

I'm familiar

#

What you do is balance food and prayer

#

When you are up on food, just 1t flick and tank minions

#

Then use food to heal up

#

Don't barrage

tardy sierra
#

Just buy the instance

#

Lol

#

Why would u not buy the instance in 2025

scarlet matrix
#

When you are up on prayer, properly flick the minions and don't use food

tardy sierra
#

Juggling is the worst part of gwd

scarlet matrix
#

It's a careful balancing act to use both resources

bold bone
#

because sometimes i'm pepega, run out of spec, start running the 9:0 with the scorching bow, but i don't have a cannon on me so i take a hit to the face every so often. and in that specific scenario i eat the floor

#

Plea.

scarlet matrix
#

Just do door-altar dawg

tardy sierra
#

9:0 ICANT

scarlet matrix
#

Fk a 9:0

#

Lose 1t per kill it's nbd

bold bone
#

i actually prefer 8:0 over altar-door

tardy sierra
#

U lose more ticks doing 9:0 than the 1t from door altar anyways

scarlet matrix
#

Nah the Zammy one is tick-perfect IIRC

#

For the :0 method

#

This method is aimed at people that don't have a Twisted bow. If you do have one, check my other video: https://youtu.be/iFzLdQgRKag . More info about this method is in the description below! 🠗🠗🠗

Red: Tiles you shoot at while being in the cycle.
Yellow: O...

#

No tick loss so technically better than door-altar

#

But barely cuz door-altar is 1t lost per kill not per rotation

#

Door altar is piss easy

tardy sierra
#

I'm assuming he's doing the noob 9:0

#

That people like gnomonkey have on their channel

#

With cannon base and shit

#

Those lose like 2 ticks a cycle at minimum

scarlet matrix
#

Uhhh no idea what that one is but the video above is legit

#

It's aids ofc

tardy sierra
#

Idk what attack number those other methods are tbf

#

But it's probably something like that with like 3 missed ticks while red xing or something

scarlet matrix
#

Anyway Alluneve let me give you some suggestions:

  • flick minions properly, including mager
  • learn door-altar so that you don't use pipe spec to start kills
  • avoid barrage as much as possible except as a last-resort
  • learn tech like this https://streamable.com/07z67q
  • get scorching bow and ignore all this bowfa bullshit

Watch "xd" on Streamable.

Wtf

#

If you are using scorching bow then just use the spec and stand still who cares about 8:0 9:0 bs

bold bone
#

it is just sometimes it noodles and with scorching bow and lightbearer you go out of spec energy, so you start running the 9:0 because you ran out of spec

scarlet matrix
#

Stand on the Oziris tile, flick minions, and bring thralls + DC

#

You will never run out of spec with that

bold bone
#

DC?

scarlet matrix
#

Death Charge

bold bone
#

osiris tile?

scarlet matrix
#

If you stand on this tile on spawn, the minions will be auto-offticked

#

So just use the spec on Zammy boss

#

Then flick minions
