No, it's done without SC hammers.

Okay, so first of all, what would be REALLY nice and what I haven't been able to find anywhere is something saying how many of each charms I will need for 99! And how many will I need for 96? (Everybody wants a Pak Yak :p) Also what monsters I should train on, knowing the following:
When I start trying to get 99 summoning, I'll have 99 strength. I'll have ~80 attack and defense, and 85 magic, and 70 range. I was hoping I could train these skills (especially attack and defense) while I got charms, so what do you think is the best method to train AND gain charms? Also this is hardly worth mentioning, but I have a bonecrusher, so the higher bones the creature drops the better. But as I said, thats hardly worth mentioning, as it isn't very important.

Your best choice would definitely be Slayer if you wanted to get Attack and Defence Xp. Most used option next to Barraging/bursting rock lobsters (which would take your magic to 99 aswell).
Its a bit hard to judge on how much you need, it depends on what you make/when you spend certain charms.
Alltogether its probably safe to say you need around 25-30k Crimsons, the rest of the charms in other colors will make up for it.
Summoning is definitely worth it and you'll raise your other stats while getting it too
Goodluck and any further questions, feel free to post.
Hey, thanks!
So just wondering, why is Slayer such a great option? Please note that I don't really care about training slayer up, or at least I don't care about it TOO much. I mean, it would be nice, but I don't really need it. Sure, the Slayer Helm comes in handy, but still... most of the monsters I'll get won't drop charms alot like Rock Lobsters or Waterfiends.

Also, here is another question: I am considering getting 99 defense on Ghouls before I go for the Summoning Exp. If I did that, I would only have 1 melee-combat 99 left to train for Summoning. Would 99 summoning get me more than 10m+ Attack Experience, and how much more?

I consider Slayer great because you can do a lot of tasks with a cannon too while training your melee stats and getting summoning charms. Also because Slayer varies a lot and isn't just camping 1 monster constantly.
You're suddenly naming rock lobster and waterfiends, but you said you wanted to train your attack and defence, whereas the best method for waterfiends requires strength mode attacks and rock lobsters don't train attack and defence at all.

As for your last question, it would be enough depending on where you'd train it.

It isn't, except for when you need one of the items in it to protect you against a certain monster (like if you would camp dust devils for example)

I'm having troubl e on farming. I try to plant potato seeds and then like I don't know when like 5 minutes later, the potatoes are dead. Sad

need help.

by **OnceDead** 4/8/2011, 7:55 pm

Spoiler:

Okay cool thanks! Okay, if I bursted rock lobsters for 99 summoning, using a Staff of Light and full Battle Robes (put together they save 50% of your runes) how much money do you think it would cost to get enough charms for 99 Summoning in terms of runes, how much time do you think it would take, and how much Mage Exp would it get me? (Like, would it be a whole lot more than 9m exp?)

Runecrafting: ZMI is best for you, look up guides on youtube to know how to do it, its by far fastest xp.
Farming: For profit do Snapdragons at your level, look at the guide in my signature Smile

Goodluck!

1k Bursts = ±270 Crimson charms.
You can probably expect to need to do ±80-90k bursts if you want to do it all through bursting, the other charms will fill in the rest of the xp.

1k Bursts cost you ±700-800k? /2 with your gear is like 350-400k x ±85k.
So alltogether about 30-40M probably, cheap as hell Wink

1k Bursts = ±180k Xp so 85 x 180k = 15,3M xp.
I believe you can do ±600 bursts per hour so timewise it would be around 140 ish hours? not completely sure. (this one might be VERY off.)

Keep in mind all of these are rough estimates, I did my best.

Goodluck and I hope all my replies lead to something useful so it was worth the effort Razz

I'll list the things I can think of, though its pretty ridiculous not to train it, will only get you stuck badly if you ever decide to do so Razz

- Effigies lamp after last stage
- XP lamps (random events or task sets completed)
- Penguins
- Tears of Guthix
- Opening resource dungeons after certain levels (check in the guide)

With 1,5-2M, making d'hide armors is not an option, that will cost you a lot more.
Your best option is making jewellery, best with gems in them for faster xp.
Just check the cost of supplies and see what the result sells for, there are many of these you can make profit on.

How long would it take for one to become maxed?! Very Happy

But seriously: How long should it take on average for a person to achieve 99 in fishing?

Depends completely on the methods you use, can't answer this.

Either camp some monster or do Slayer, fairly simple choice tbh Razz

I know there are skillers who can enter Shilo Village, if you can that might be best for you.
You probably don't want to fish sharks as they are slow but thats always still an option.

Your best choice would be to either make a lot of money or just stick with cleaning herbs.
You could also have a look at my guide here, but its not exactly fast Herblore xp Razz

I'm afraid I can't. I have 10hp, and 1 on every combat skill.
Looks like it's 80k sharks for me!

Your best choice is to go do Slayer, that way you will train a variety of skill, increase your wealth and get charms along the way. Then just generally make the best pouches you can, but save your blue charms for later on, they are not worth using now.

Goodluck and let me know if you have any questions Smile
