Pure - Slayer?

[Plagued]

Hey FOE -

I want to max out my pure overtime and make as much money as possible.  On mains, I know slayer is one of the best ways to do so, but is this profitable on a pure as well?  My overall goal would be 85 slayer.  Basically - If you don't feel like reading, here is the main few questions:

[glow=red,2,300]

1) Is slayer profitable on a pure?

2) How much cash is recommended to start training through slayer?[/glow]

Thanks guys :)

[watch me tb]

why wouldnt it be profitable?

It will eventually be profitable, and no one can really tell you how much cash you need because it depends on your task  :mellow:

It's profitable when you get a high level.

You don't need much to start training, but it won't be really profitable until around 75+ unless you get some lucky drops. Once you can start farming monsters is when the cash comes in.

[Plagued]

Hmm.. What exactly do you mean by "farming monsters" ?

[[FeaR]]

When you stay killing them for more then just the slayer task. ex: Jimmy decided to farm spiritual mages for a few hours. It resulted in 8 D boot drops!.

Slayer is great xp and it starts getting profitable after you reach a certain slayer level.

Oh so farming = camping - got it.

Thanks for the responses guys :)

it can be costly if you chose to do it fast, Cannon on some tasks make them great xp.

There are pretty much 2 ways to go about doing slayer as a pure. One is to range the vast majority of your tasks. This will make profit but it is very slow training. The other way is to use prayer potions. This method is of course a lot faster and if you can prayer glitch not very expensive at all. However if you don't know how to prayer glitch it will be expensive and I doubt you would make profit.

[im whats up]

if you pray flick its really profitable..takes time but is worth it

[Austin|Vile Maul]

Cannon + bunyip is pretty good, right?

[Noobi meh]

Yes I get profit off every single challange thingy its just you gotta pick stuff up. You might think its hardly worth anything but it all adds up. Ive just hit 60 slayer like 5 mins ago and Ive must of got like 5m+ from slayer. Just dont do what I do and buy like 1m worth of broad bolts at a time, go out with all of them on me and die with them at drags coz of afk and then buy them back and die the same way with them on again. 3 times in a row that happened to me. It sucked alot..

You will probably loose alot of gp until you hit about 60, i personally ranged 1-78 slayer and meleed 78-83, working on 99 :P. I suggest ranging low levels unless you plan to loose alot. >60 Its pretty profitable althought you sometimes get bad streaks.
