Well I currently have 59 range, and my goal is to get 80 range so I can try to get a fire cape. What would be the fastest/ most suggested way to level up range? If you can, include gear and what type of ammo/knifes/etc.. I should use (65 def, 71 att).

iron knifes mate. u can try a cave runner, but u wont get kinfes back.
u could try the range guild scripts. theres one but its not great atm. but narcles autofighter picks up arrows. so try it in the stronghold.

Well if I try cave runner, can't I just use ava's accumulator?

yes, ava accumulator + steel arrows + magic bow…



Or you can just do the legit way and buy a cannon at yaks

Bone cross-bow + Bone Bolts + Ava's Accumulator (upgraded)

bone bolts = 4gp each, and you hit harder the higher lvl you get, like dramatically. My 99 ranger hits 25+ with bone bolts.

The best way is darts and Yaks :)

So far it's been suggested to go :

1) Cave runner
2) Yaks
3) yaks with cannon

equipment: iron knives, bone crossbow with bone bolts, magic bow and steel arrows, darts, and ava's accumulator.

Anyother suggestions? Personally I think yaks are very crowded (which would make the cannon a nice idea), and I've never tried cave running. Which would be better?

Cannon or fightcaves, and 70 range is enough.

Red chin + Cannon = pwnage

i started going for fire cape at 70 range ^_^

although i did fail 5/5 times(due to inpatientness, guessed jad's attack before he actually did :( :( ).. ended up with 74 range, wasted around 6m, and quit for awhile, now im too poor to go for fire cape :p

I failed at JAD last time (second try, ran out of pots first one) With 75 range. Got a bad spawn so got attacked off-screen. A few hp left when Jad was visible, and dang ONE fault = dead. Markus, can you do JAD if I log out before the 360 360 wave? If I'm failing one more time, I will let someone else try…

Did it around 3 times at range 70 exact, its only useful for the black d'hide.

Krim: yes,
To anyone else: If you need help with Jad, I can do it :D I made every possible mistake at least once, so ;)

Cost for fightcaves is around 500k, assuming you got 70 def and did some quests. Now with the broad-tipped bolts its even cheaper:)

Yaks or Ogres in King Lathas Training Grounds.
Use Bronze/Iron Knives

= TRUE!!


Really my friend got from 50-99 in a week with only playing 1 hour a day.

Red chins on skeletons at ape toll jeez! 150k exp per load of prayer pots…

1. Cannon balls are much to expensive and only gives you half the amount of usual exp per hit.
It will probably cost you about 2 mill to get to lvl 80 with chins and p pots at ape toll though…
