It literally isn't one of the slowest skills, since with caches you can achieve over 500k xp/hr rates

>>
>>164649727
>500k xp/hr rates
wow it's almost like xp/hr means nothing when you're time limited.

if you could get 500k xp/hr it would take 26 hours to get 99 div, not 4 months.
>>
>>164649850
But it does take 26 hours to get 99 div, just spread over 4 months

Do you fucking halve all your other xp rates too because you must sleep and eat and can't just train it constantly?
>>
>>164649956
>But it does take 26 hours to get 99 div, just spread over 4 months
then it's not really 26 hours is it, retard?
>you must sleep and eat and can't just train it constantly?
no, but other skills (individually) do not take a minimum of 4 months to get 99 in. div does, and actually siphoning wisps is a waste of time.
>>
>>164650032
It does take 26 hours to reach 99 divination, spread over 4 months

Welcome to asymmetrical gameplay, when you take on a unique role you end up having to put more effort into that role.

It'd be impossible to make a difficult boss with interesting mechanics where everyone puts in equal effort.

Not really. People don't actually avoid games with MTX. The reason RS isn't as popular as it once was is simply because people don't want to invest the time necessary to really enjoy any of RS. They would rather spend their money on beer or vodka or weed and watch TV. Or they only play assfaggots.

Also MMOs historically (with the exception of WoW) have never had the number of players call of duty or counter strike does. Jagex still has a $10m operating income.

>Team died a minute into mirage after some retard forgot to pick up the planks


This is exactly what I meant
I spent twelve (12) minutes actively playing the game while nine other retards were AFK doing their revolution no-dps-rotations and generally doing as little as they possibly could get away with

Asking for kill count is meaningless because literally anyone can join a team as ''''dps'''' or ''''''''''''''''roles''''''''''''''''' like clicking on some green arrows on the floor and build a three digit number of KC that way
>>

Pretty much. Remember when OSRS was released and it "wasn't going to receive any support" and Jagex "was still committed to making RS3 the main game and OSRS was just an extra server or two for some nostalgia"

Now OSRS gets objectively better content than RS3 at a more consistent rate.
>>
>>164681852
I dont even know about gw2, or ff14 to be sure, currently it has 8k players on steam and probably a bit more than double that off steam. As for wow, its obviously the big hitter.
>>
>>164682005
>objectively better content
I disagree here. Zeah was (and still kind of is) a desolate bootleg prif and Raids aren't anything special. Olm is just Nex+QBD spank and tank

>>
>>164682151
>>164682186
Maybe objectively better isn't the word I'm looking for. I mean I really did love some of the RS3 content this year.

What I mean is for a game that was just supposed to be a fun side piece to RS3 it now has more consistent support from Jagex in terms of content than RS3 does.
>>
Why do people praise prif so much?
It's literally just an afk hotspot with high requirements.
Zeah at least has some content. If all mazcab content was instead related to elves/prif they would be somewhat comparable.
>>
>>164682420
because its easier to make content for osrs
>>
>>164682005
OSRS gets better quality of life updates than RS3. It is beyond comprehension why RS3 doesn't let you teleport directly from a fairy ring instead of going to zanaris first, but OSRS does, for example.
>>
>>164682420
>for a game that was just supposed to be a fun side piece to RS3 it now has more consistent support from Jagex in terms of content than RS3 does.
That I agree with

but it's hard for them not to give it support when it has more players.

It's frankly silly for RS3 to have a team of 100+ devs and OSRS has 7 when OSRS has double the people online.
>>
>>164682489
>Zeah at least has some content
soul altar, necromancer spellbook, and what else?

>all mazcab content
that's just raids
>>
>>164682489
because prif is locked behind quests so the shitters and beggers stay out, alongside that the best slayer master and a pvm portal/skill portals and 2 ge's are @prif. the only really good afk skilling at prif still is mining because most of the skilling there is outclassed already
>>
>>164682489
>Why do people praise prif so much?
Because it shits on Zeah so much? It's so good it even made hated skills likable, like thieving. It broke old staples like gilded altars no longer being the fastest exp in the game.

Most importantly, it's not fucking empty.
>>

to be honest though if you removed the overbearing twice a week microtransaction updates RS3 would be just as if not more popular than OSRS.

OSRS has nostalgia, but RS3 has better bossing mechanics, better and more complex content, and pretty much everything OSRS lacks.

The only thing osrs has that RS3 doesn't is that it isn't buyable and it's not bombarded by monetization

Not him but they are usually pretty safe.

>>
>>164695142
combat skills for sure. They could add harder modes for current bosses that will become too easy, and it will lessen power creep that they're bound to run into with current 99's. Can't have meaningful content when everyone has T90 sets unless you add in shit like T95, T96, T97...etc etc. And then you just have people grinding for a little bit of a number difference.
>>
>>164695142
I honestly feel that the game didn't need any more skills after Summoning and every time I've been unable to think of what they possibly could add but they always manage to add some obscure shit.

I really wish they'd rebalance or rework old skills (and balance low/mid level combat while they're at it) instead of adding new skills, but since they've chosen to state that elite skills are a think I am 99% sure the next skill will be another 120 skill.

how to beat spooder
>>
>>164700943
The current strategy is to suicide up until Olm and then maximize points (no dying). Hexis did a 25 minute one and got D Thr.Axes

can you build it up only by killing him?

>>164701510
>can you build it up only by killing him?
You can get a decent number of points just from Olm. The time saved seems to be worth it because as people learn the mechanics the time drops.

I wouldn't be surprised if suicide strats drop raids below 15 minutes, especially because the fewer people you have the fewer phases Olm goes through. A 4-man is only 2 phases

can someone give me a straight answer on this

if I can afford either, should I get torva or zaros anima? looking for melee armour for general use. slayer, bossing, whatever

been out of touch with the game for a few years
>>
>>164703148
I can't say for sure (I use Malev) but I see far more people using Torva than ZarosAnima
>>
>lance on my 41st vinny kill
>Dojo Mojo at 3.9m xp while doing the new years thing
today has been a good day
>>
>>164703148
zaros for non degradeing memes and dps
torva for cool guy points and hp boost
>>
>>164703148
refined zaros anima > torva > regular zaros anima
>>
>>164700991
I wouldn't change any of the old skills to 120.
>>
>>164703390
this guy is right

>>164703432
just keep adding sub 99 content and watch xp fags suffer? thats brutal anon
>>
>>164703148
Torva for prayer and HP bonus

You'll want to augment your shit which makes them cost exactly the same amount to use

For slayer I use bandos and for bossing malevolent though
>>
>>164703432
for the sake of eventual content expansion, it will happen.

2 skills have the 120 cap and another one is planned by June.
>>
>>164703265
>>164703376
>>164703390
>>164703553
so is zaros anima a straight upgrade from bandos?
probably better off just using bandos for slayer and torva for other shit?
>>
>>164695142
the real question is what will jagex do when every skill has been bumped up to 120
>>
>>164703905
>probably better off just using bandos for slayer and torva for other shit?
pretty much
>>
>>164703524
>watch xp fags suffer
How would they suffer?

They're grinding for grinding's sake, they know it's no guarantee a skill gets expanded to 120
>>
>>164703957
skill prestiges
>>
>>164703553
>>164703265
is malevolent untradeable? the ge armour is cheap which makes me think it's like tetsu where the good version isn't tradeable and the tradeable version is garbage
>>
>>164703993
yeah, you should have a set of all the gwd1 armors for general slayer
>>
>>164704123
Untradeable after you equip it AND it degrades to nothing.

You can extend it's lifetime with Invention (worth it) but it eventually turns to dust
>>
>>164704123
it's tradeable but degrades to dust
>>
>>164703905
nex armors are 300k an hour if augmented and used for slayer, which isn't too much if you want a little more invention exp/hour, but you won't gain a significant amount of kills over bandos if both were fully perked.

my set up is torva is used for general bossing and some slayer, a bandos set with genocidal with a 2nd pair of tassets with demonslayer
>>
>>164704089
they sure as shit are a lot more motivated now that slayer is joining the 120 cap group.
>>
>>164704343
Well that's not just xpfags

It's compfags wanting to keep their cape and PVMfags who want to grind "the best" monster on day 1 of menaphos

Jagex polled mining/smithing going to 120 and people shit all over the idea so I wouldn't say all skills going to 120 is inevitable
>>
>>164704301
sorry for the extra questions, like I said haven't played in a few years

what's genocidal and demonslayer? also what's augmentation? can bandos/torva be augmented?
>>
>>164704495
>Jagex polled mining/smithing going to 120
helps that mining and smithing are so horrendous right now that Jagex decided a rework was needed.

plus you can't really compare those to combat skills including slayer which are obviously far more popular.
>>
>>164704495
it will be eventually when most other skills are 120. 120 will be the new 99 at that point.
>>
>>164704730
>what's genocidal and demonslayer?
genocidal lets you do more damage the further into your slayer task you are, demonslayer lets you do more damage to demons

>augmentation
the entire purpose of the invention skill

>can bandos/torva be augmented?
yes, along with just about every other armor in the game
>>
>>164704830
This was after Jagex approved the rework

The basically said "We're reworking mining and smithing, do you want us to add 99-120 content" and people very loudly said "NO"

People are even telling them to reduce Invention from 120 to 99 because there's no point in having a barren skill
>>
thanks for all the help lads

follow up question, what's the meta for weapons? is it 2h weapons or dual wield? when i started playing again someone told me to go with dragon rider lance over drygores.

can someone give me an "x > y > z" of the melee, range and magic weapons similar to >>164703390
>>
>>164704730
augmenting is tied to the most recent skill added, invention, which needs 80 crafting, divination and smithing as a pre req due to it being an """"elite"""" skill. basically by augmenting an item, it degrades by using up a global energy source for all augmented items, so its pretty much a new degrading system, where you buy, or gather if poor/ironman energies from divination to power stuff. only augmented items can be enhanced with gizmos, which contain perks. for example genocidal increases your damage as you progress through a slayer task, up to 7% near the end of it
>>
>>164705091
>We're reworking mining and smithing,
you can't really ask for people's opinion on something you haven't even released, should've waited to poll it after the rework.
>because there's no point in having a barren skill
that's just Jagex's fuckup, they rushed the skill and have so little clue on what to do with it they cancelled the previously announced second batch.

gotta focus the money on the conga walk development first.
>>
>>164704973
are those auras though? they sound like auras
>>
>>164705261
they're gizmos that add passive effects onto your augmented items, they're permanent.

even if you disassemble the augmented item for invention exp, you'll get the gizmo with the passive effects back on your inventory ready to be added onto something else.
>>
>>164705257
They released the design documents for it, people knew what it would entail

People just don't want to afk seren stones and smith a bunch of garbage for 104,000,000 xp

It's not interesting or good content and I'd be surprised if Jagex expanded another skill after Slayer

People always approve slayer updates, even garbage ones like Wyverns and Rippers
>>
>>164705108
melee is nox scythe > drygores > dragon rider lance > twin blades > chaotic stuff

magic is seismics > nox staff > wand of the elders+virtus book > chaotic staff

ranged is nox bow > ascencion crossbows > glaives > royal crossbow

I didn't include the t92 weapons because they're still to expensive to the average player
>>
>>164705261
nevermind, figured it out after reading >>164705108

it's all starting to make sense now
>>
>>164705108
dual for dps > lance has halbard range for people who kill 20 things at once

range can have an inferior offhand weapon for reasons i dont care enough about so feel free to use oh glaive

if you aint swimming in dosh dual virtus < nox staff but waaaay cheaper
>>
>>164705108
most 2h weapons are stronger then their dual wield counterparts due to abilities or inherent strengths, also its easier to augment them since they only need one augmenter and gather experience faster, i've excluded the top tier weapons since they're all 1bil + each

melee; noxious scythe > dragon rider lance > drygores > twin fury blades

range: noxious longbow > ascension crossbows > shadow glaives > royal crossbow

mage: noxious staff > staff of darkness > chaotic staff > wand of cywir elders
>>
>>164705437
>It's not interesting or good content and I'd be surprised if Jagex expanded another skill after Slayer
like I said you can't compare those to popular skills like Slayer or combat ones.

hell even thieving is popular now thanks to prif.

I also really doubt most people even see future design documents more than they see actual in-game polls.
>>
>>164705635
It wasn't an in game poll it was a reddit/content stream questionairre

basically they showcased the changes and you filled out a survey. One of the questions was "Would you like us to create additional content and expand these skills to 120"

People were overwhelmingly against the idea. People just don't enjoy grinding skills to 120 even "enjoyable" ones.

RS isn't about the grind anymore.

It's about pets and instant gratification.
>>
>>164705864
>It's about pets and instant gratification.
and outfits
don't forget outfits
>>
>>164705864
>RS isn't about the grind anymore.
I'm pretty sure 120 thieving is more prominent than 120 attack.

again, it was dumb to poll that before the rework was implemented, even if you're told what's in it, it's nothing compared to experiencing the real thing.
>>
>>164705108
In regards to dragon rider lance vs drygores, drygores and higher single target dps but lance is higher multitarget dps and has an extra square of range which makes it useful for bosses such as araxxor where you want to avoid being hit by their melee attack.
>>
>>164706040
I think I'll complement what you're talking about when I say that I miss when we didn't know what update we would get.

I remember waking up on the day of the update very eager to know what it was, if I could do it, if it would be fun.

Now we're given the whole explanation on what to expect and what is or not coming on monday. For me, that takes a lot of the enjoyment of the game.

I've been feeling this for a while, but when the silver jewellery update happened, which was the first in a while with a sense of surprise, that even it not being useful to me as a high level player, I made sure to do these rings and necklaces just to feel that again.
>>

ports is not better than refined gwd2 sets because it's tank armour
same goes for raids, but the raids set effects make them useful at some places
>>
>>164706728
Malevolent is only ~200k/hour more to use than torva, it's expensive but not that bad.
>>
>>164706728
Wasn't upgraded ancient warrior equipment (t87) supposed to be dirt cheap versions of t90 armour?

Also malevolent is not "very expensive at all"
A full malevolent set costs the same as a single torva platebody or platelegs

yeah didnt know where ports slotted in but i saw 138s using raid stuff and that in castlewars duing minigame weekend
>>
>>164706939
I know, but the guy is just learning this, he could see them on the GE and think "hey this is cheaper I should use them"

>>164707020

Maybe if you're autistic, nox staff superior unless you're only doing vorago or telos

Why do you fuckers always have to go through the use of this word instead of talking normally like normal people?

No, it's not a coloquial use of a word.
You all use it as a form of demonstrating superiority, which is clearly denied just by the use of it.

>>164715149
>No, it's not a coloquial use of a word.
Yes it is.

that word is extremely common today, you can see it on your jock friends' facebook wall.
>>
>>164715249
Would it be harder to say "No, nox staff superior unless you're only doing vorago or telos"?

It wouldn't. In fact, it would be even easier.
Therefore, the addition of the word "autistic" in the context makes it's use, by definition, not a colloquialism.

Exactly.

You touched the stone before, you got a power buff, that's what matters, so why would it be any different if you touched it again?

>That might be a radiation thing.
You touched it, again, that's what matters, so the player is a stone user just like everyone else, and so the dragonkin hate him just as much and it wouldn't make any difference if he touched the stone again and fought Lucien with it.

Hell the dragonkin threaten you afterwards but of course they don't go through with it because bad writing.

EoC. Never use legacy combat.

>>164785074

The only time you should be using legacy instead of EoC is when you start a new account where you have just a few basic abilites.

Legacy combat is ~25% less DPS than using revolution and not using thresholds/ultimates

Against, it shows that you need at least 125 days training div on nothing but caches since level 17.

I would question the relevance of him even posting that. Once you hit level 68 div you don't even need the skill aside from making porters which you can bypass with other methods. I mean it's true the speed is probably the slowest conventionally but in the grand scheme of things getting 99 div immediately doesn't net you anymore benefit if you trained 10 + other skills to 99 and got 99 div as a side benefit.
>>
>>164789685

whatever you think about the skill only being worth training until 68 is irrelevant, the point here is maxing it, period.

oh not a bad idea

Considering just how much content is in the game that's really not a big deal.

You could just use all the time you'd be spending grinding div to max all your other skills or grind slayer/a boss for mad cash.

Who would willingly train when caches are essentially a free 99?

If you actually want to train div, you train div.
Caches is like using ToG to level your lowest skill.

I aimed for 92 divination over the last week or so (was previously 90 for ports + 90 cape for priff tasks) because that was the level I needed to create Divine Simulachrums II, which I intend to use daily from now on for portents to disassemble for materials for dungeoneering lock melters in addition to div xp.

Because the time you're allowed to use the caches is not the same as the time you're allowed to train slayer, which is 100% of the time.

You're acting stupid and you know it, Divination is the slowest skill in the game and nothing you say will change that fact. Even counting other skills' non-playing hours, they still don't take 125 days, and that's only if you get a perfect 100 points each cache when things could happen like, most noticeably, retarded players not knowing how to play and having 6 cres activated at the same time all hunting the same automatons.

Uh, no? why would that be? It's just someone focusing to train div and counting how many real time hours it takes, even counting non-play hours, which would be a hell of a lot sooner than 125+ days, which is what matters here, not amount of effort.

...But the cache way IS the slowest way possible since it takes 125+ days. Training divination normally is far faster since you can get millions of exp per day.

How the fuck can people not be understanding this anons point?
Div is slow as fuck if you're training just div.
Not in terms of a "time spent training".
It's bad from a balancing standpoint, even farming is better.

The situation doesn't involve other skills, just div and only div.
A skill - which is fucking defined as a GATHERING skill - should not be leveled passively like that.

>>fastest max cape =/= fastest 99 div.
Is 99 Div good for anything other than unlocking max cape and max guild?
>>
>>164792815
Farming is an oddity, and frankly, fucking annoying, but even it gives you better xp per hour including wait times.
Div should not be primarily trained through a d&d, it's a gathering skill, like mining.

The point is DIV. The balancing of DIV.
Not div relative to other skills.
Just div.

Training div ONLY with caches is slow as fuck.
Dividing xp/cache by 24 hours is going to net you an abysmal xp rate per hour.

Caches give terrible xp/hr.
How hard is this to understand?
Of fucking course you factor wait times in, you do for fucking farming.

But why would you train div to 99 if not for maxing?

this is mathematically proven
>b-but you can't train for a full hour!!
Still fastest.
>>
>>164793413
>>164793434
no, but that's not the point here.

why do you keep bringing that up? do you really have nothing else to argue with that you resort to moving the goalpost?

getting 99 divination could summon the antichrist and bring the end of the world and it still wouldn't be relevant to this conversation.
>>
>>164793428
>Caches give terrible xp/hr.
73k xp per 10 minutes is not terrible xp/h, it's close to 450k xp/h
>>
>>164793561
>that's not the point here
I know what the point is.
The point if getting 99 divination without caches, which is extremely idiotic, because you lose time you could be using for something else.
>>
>>164793561
>why do you keep bringing that up?
Dude I just opened the thread, saw someone complaining about div, and suggested caches. Then they go on some autism streak about the other skills not mattering when they very obviously matter.

Div shouldn't be trained normally because it's only useful for maxing. Do caches and train your other skills while caches reset

>>

>I know what the point is.
No you don't, otherwise you wouldn't be bringing up unrelated issues like ''why'', when all that this is about is ''how fast can you get to 99 divination''. Also I never said ''without caches'', why wouldn't you include those? Obviously they'd speed up things.
>>164793703
>Dude I just opened the thread, saw someone complaining about div, and suggested caches
Then you should read the rest of the conversation and realize that this is just about ''how fast can you train divination'', not ''how you should train divination''.

>Div shouldn't be trained normally because it's only useful for maxing.
Indeed they shouldn't, I've said this many times, not related to the conversation at hand though.
>>
>>164793521
It's not about earning large amounts of batch xp in a short amount of time, that creates a statistical blip.

>>164793568
Take hunter, trained optimally.
It is almost a million xp/hr.
This is constant whether or not you train it for one minute or five days.

Take div, trained with caches.
Factoring in the fact that training is limited to a specific window, it is increadibly slow.
The fact that xp is awarded in bursts skews the math and creates an artificially inflated xp rate.
Adjusting for this creates the correct one.

Yes, you should adjust it - that's how it works.
There is a core balancing problem with div.
>>
>>164793952
Of course it is, it's proven here: >>164647682

It takes a whopping 125 days, and that's only if you get a perfect score each time which can be ruined by other people's incompetence.
>>
>>164793952
>There are still people arguing over literally nothing
Literally just do both. Or if you hate Div, just do Caches.
>>
>>164793959
>all that this is about is ''how fast can you get to 99 divination''
Faster with caches, that's for sure.

>>164793974
>Factoring in the fact that training is limited to a specific window, it is increadibly slow
It's way faster with caches, though.
>>
>>164793959
>this is just about ''how fast can you train divination''
Apparently not

Hang on, is this the ''cache only'' method that we're talking about or just ''include caches in the training alongside regular training''. Because obviously the latter makes divination faster.

Cache-only method though? 125+ days.
>>164794119
It is, for some reason people started using the ''why'' as an argument when NOBODY was saying that you shouldn't only train a tedious ass skill like divination with just caches, which is something I've said many times that I agree with and do so myself.
>>
>>164794363
You should never train div normally

It's inefficient
>>
>80 slayer
Should I just stop now? I'm getting sick of dumpster assignments by Kuradel like Fire Giants and whatnot that aren't' hard but just time consuming. Does Movran have any shitty assingments like Kuradel does? Might be helped if I actually started questing so I could fight tormented demons
>>
>>164794363
>Cache-only method though? 125+ days
You're making the assumption that I'm not training anything during the period between caches? Wow you're even more idiot than it looked like at the start.
>>
>>164794113
>take div
>trained with caches
Trained only with caches and adjusted to normalize distribution with time, DIV ONLY TRAINED WITH CACHES is increadibly slow.
Yes, you have to adjust it for wait times, you're using an incorrect sample.
That's how it works.

It's like walking into a neo-nazi meeting, and asking who hates jews.
Of course every answer will be yes.
But if you ask the people outside, you will get actual responses, in which outliers like the neonazi meetup will be complete drowned out, because you're using an appropriate sample.

The time it takes to do caches divided by the xp you get for them is the outlier.
You factor in the weight times to get rid of it, because that's how stats work.
>>
>>164794441
Indeed, I've said many times I agree with that sentiment, not sure why you're bringing it up in this conversation though.
>>164794491
>You're making the assumption that I'm not training anything during the period between caches?
Not at all, since this conversation is just about divination only.

Let me guess, you also think that this conversation is about how you SHOULD train divination?
>>
>>164794451
Whoops, I'm retarded. I need 85 for Morvran. Still doesn't change the fact that Kuradel has some shitty assignments, would questing fix that so I can do Tormented or other shits?
>>
>>164794560
As a fascist, there is literally nothing wrong with Jews.
>>
>>164794614
Morvy doesn't really have that many shitty assignments that I can think of.
>>
>>164794560
>DIV ONLY TRAINED WITH CACHES is increadibly slow
But who said anything about "only through caches"?
It's you saying things like "regular divination is faster without caches".
>>
>>164794830
>But who said anything about "only through caches"?
Only most of the people in this conversation, who say that divination is the fastest because it takes 25 hours of caches to max it.
>"regular divination is faster without caches".
Nobody said that.
>>
>>164794830
>how should I train div
>caches
>but caches are increadibly slow, statistically adjusted like they should be
>que misunderstandings, bad math, redirection and stuff that has nothing to do with his original point.
Right in the beginning.
>>
>>164795002
>Nobody said that
OK, look at these posts:

>>164791374
> you get tons more exp per day training on regular div locations alone

>>164791663
>It's just someone focusing to train div and counting how many real time hours it takes, even counting non-play hours, which would be a hell of a lot sooner than 125+ days

>>164792734
>But the cache way IS the slowest way possible

>>164794297
I've done Dimension of Disaster, but is there anything I need to do to make sure I'm using the "fully enhanced" version of Darklight? Is Enhanced Excalibur an okay offhand?
>>
>>164795354
>anything I need to do to make sure I'm using the "fully enhanced" version of Darklight?
check if you bought the upgrade from the gypsy in varrock square

>Is Enhanced Excalibur an okay offhand?
no, buy the off hand slutblade, cheap
>>
>>164795334
And all of those are against the cache-only method that people keep saying, good job not being able to read. Nothing about ''DON'T EVER DO CACHES''.
>>
>>164794761
Good. Kuradel and Duradel both have several assignments I consider to be awful. Dust Devils and Fire Giants are the that come to mind. Both tasks take a while and the monsters have shitty drops. It feels like they're getting assingned exclusively to waste my time. It feels silly to block them since I'm close to unlocking prif and it's' only five more levels on top of the weight not being incredibly high.

Honestly I just hate monsters that have no drops, at least relative to how much effort I need to put in to kill them. Adamant dragons might've been hard for me, but it was worth the supplies since every one of them dropped at least 15k in bones and bars. Giants and Devils require a modicum of effort and supplies, but rarely drop anything of value and just feels like a massive waste of time. There was one time where a fire giant dropped 1091 noted coal, but that was probably an extremely rare drop.

Anon, those posts said
Div normally + caches > div normally > just caches
Not that div without caches is faster than div with caches
>>
>>164795142
Ok, what do you want me to say?
That training div without caches is stupid? Because that is literally what I'm saying from the beginning, but you're insisting that regular div is faster.

>>164795467
>cache-only method that people keep saying
I didn't say cache-only. I've said that you should not do regular div as your main source of experience.
>>
>>164795443
Okay groovy. I'll switch to the slutblade too. Will I be needing fuggin' ogreloads and shit too or can I bring food or ppots + SS?

>>164795704
ppots + SS is good, overloads would help of course
but use the best boosting potion you can, grand melees are good
also, if you have demonhorn and the attuned ectoplasmator you shouldn't need ppots

Honey, for the 500th time, this isn't about how you should train divination, perhaps if you followed the conversation since its beginning you would know that.

Hell I've even told you multiple times that of course you SHOULD only train divination by caches, so clearly it's not what this argument is about.
>>
>>164795748
I forgot how it started and I'm tired as fug
The point was the cache only method is terrible xp/hr if you aren't retarded and can into math
>>
>>164795924
>this isn't about how you should train divination
Then I honestly have no idea why you're so against doing cache only.
>>
>>164795837
I sure got told.

Do you think this is your Facebook wall or something? This is /rsg/ dude, playing this game already makes you a weirdo and now you're in the 4chains thread about it.

>>164796062
Good thing that this conversation isn't about how you should train divination then and that nobody is arguing about that.

No idea why you keep bringing it up, almost like you're not reading or something.
>>
>>164796176
says the guy who isn't maxed in 2011+6
>>
>>164796067
I'm not, again, I just told you that that's how should train divination.

Do you expect to butt in the middle of a conversation and expect to know everything about it?

This is about ''what is the fastest way to get 99 divination'', this isn't about ''how you should train divination because you're a human being and shouldn't deal with the tedious shit that is regular div training so just do caches brah''.
>>
>this isn't about ''how you should train divination

>REEEE YOU SHOULDN'T TRAIN ONLY WITH CACHES IT TAKES TOO LONG
>>
>>164796467
I said multiple times that you should indeed train it with just caches though, nice job proving you're not reading at all.

Hell you just pointed out that I just said that this isn't about how you ''should'' train it, but rather what is the fastest way of getting 99 divination. By no means what I would recommend to do to anyone ever since divination is so boring.

It's worth it, the extra +2 helps a noticeable amount at bosses. Make all your overloads into supreme overload salves, you won't regret it.
