In conclusion: Torso is not worth OSRS gold for sale purchasing. Period. - Should you not have money to play, this is a fantastic alternative. The only disadvantage I see with slayers is the minor chance of losing the prayer bonus. The loss of defence bonus very small. Can you prove that? The average income for a moneymaker is 1m/hr. The inexperienced players that long to master BA and by then, you'd have the money for BCP.

I've never said the def bonuses mattered. If you check out my previous threads, I'm a fan of str to def anyday on a week. You can't sell the torso, so that's a small amount. I'm able to assure you that "average" money maker is much less than 1m an hour. There are just a handful of ways to will make that kind of.

There were too many bots running at AZs. I could barely make 50k/hr there. Many slayer tasks provide more than 80k xp/hour. I don't know of a single slayer activity that provides 80kxp/hr. Just click at the right time on AZS and you'll never have a problem. It's not that people don't bot slayer as well.

I am currently at 100k exp from 99 woodcutting and I was just going to get a Saradomin sword. But I figured I might as well make a topic here to see the opinions of everyone regarding whether I should invest in the ss or BGS, which means they're both at the same cost at the moment. I own a whip and dragon defender at the moment but I'm not able to train for strength using them, and I'd rather have 2h weapons. In fact, I'm hitting pretty much identically with a ss as I do with the whip anyways.

That's right, I'm about the get RuneScape Membership 99 woodcutting I'm bored of doing. Therefore, I'm likely to play some pvp related mini-games. For example, clan wars. Also, I could do some cash-making and quests along with some training every occasionally. I've never "grinded" or "spun" whatever I wanted to do. Thus, I am sane by cutting wood for months on end. There's nothing better than grinding than killing each other off.
