Dung - how slow is it at low levels?

I am trying to dung solo to see for myself how badly dung sucks in general, and I can tell that the XP at low levels totally sucks.

I am 70/70/64 melee 44 pray and 39 dung, doing solo c6 small. My time is around 8-12mins per level on average, so I expect 6-8k XP/H. Is it bad and are there ways to get higher XP rates at my level?

I also want to know if melee is the way to go in dung. I have never seen anything about doing dung at low levels without relying on high melee stats.

Finally, when is this going to be better? Whenever I think about dung, it just totally sucks :( and is it cost effective to buy floors/leech at my current level as a way out?

if you have money you should leech dung in a team of 5 in c6 suicidal rush, if not solo dung isnt a good idea at all since even at high lvls its slow has hell, get a team and go from there

bind the best 2h you can.get a ssh(shadow silk hood).do floors 1-30 c1.then 30-39 large.

this is with a team as solo sucks……….or do floors 1-38 c1 buy floor 39 then reset.

What's the cost we're talking about here, given I start leeching at 40 dung with a target of getting to lv60?

i paid 1m-1.5m occ..2m for warp..this is cheap. i used 3 different people lvl 115.. lvl 120.. lvl 110 dung.. 2 guys and a girl all were legit got me 99 on my pure..

hmm between 350k-1m per floor depending on the guys you use, but the exp is much much quicker because in large floors they usually take 20-25 mins ea

but seriously can I use that at such low dung at 40 when I have barely unlocked the first few of the furnished floors?

you can but you would better training to 60-70 first and then leeching

so do you mean for 40-60 I'll still be best to solo the floors on my own?

do exactlly what your doing. after your prestige a few times your exp will go up. im lvl 55 and get about 4-6k exp per c6 small dung, taking max 10 mins each so i do about 40-60k hrly.

it'll get faster and faster as you go along. but once you hit a higher level. either find a good team or leech for some crazy fast exp

Don't bother actually dunging until you are level 50-60+. Spend all of your lamps, peng points, and xp books on it until you get there.

Once you do get there. Try to find a few people that you can count on to dung with. Soloing is a waste of time (unless you're rushing lower floors, but even that is faster in a team).

dont solo, the xp is crap, go on teams until you are 60-70 and then leech floors for cash

Which world do I go to find nonstupid teams? :P

I use world 77. 117 is good in day time most of the times but 77 is the best for dung teams.. You don't even have to leech at all. Most of the time there is always a team rushing the floors you need.

Don't count on teams of randoms. Find some people in a clan or some friends that are dedicated to dunging.

Never had friends on rs really. I'm just a lone scripter/botter.
Any good advice as to where to look for a clan that takes noobs as I?

Buying floors is very expensive its ridiculous. I believe my friend payed 80m to get to 80 dung. Dont quote me on it, im not exactly sure, but its expensive…

Of course doing dung solo is horrible exp. This sure sucks. I usually like skilling alone anyway. Bleh wish dung was solo friendly.

There are a few clans on the RSOF. Dung smiths or dung mates (I think is the name).

Try posting there. Don't expect instant results. Finding reliable dung partners is a headache.

88k xp at what floor?

You start getting 88k xp at warped for the most part, occults I get like 60k now. 1-60 dung is the worst thing in existance, it's solo grind for the most part and it has no real rewards, so it's torture to say the least.

Any good ideas to get me through this? I am 40 dung and I understand the next 20 levels are going to be hellish. I am thinking I might even buy floors/leech if the price tag is low enough, but for these annoying levels I guess the chance is unlikely.

I am already using lamps to lessen the pain now, but on rough math it seems I am some 30-40 hours short on getting to 60 if I am going to solo c6 smalls. It just seems so impossible.

Just go to a dung world and search for some people who want to help you for free. :D Thats what i didt until lvl 80 hehe.

i got 88k doing floor 41 with prestige 44, so i imagine guys with 100 plus lvl will gain 130-150k per floor
