Dailies / Weeklies / Monthlies - Portus - 2013-10-06

Dailies are often underestimated in terms of their power to gain fantastic amounts of experience in a short amount of time. Conventional methods of training skills such as dungeoneering, mining and firemaking can be completely abandoned thanks to activities which were originally intended to give a small boost to the skill. 120 Dungeoneering can take almost no time at all, just by spending 12 minutes a day on a minigame which will give you no need to ever kill a boss monster again.  

Here is a list and brief guide to my favourite dailies/weeklies/monthlies. Please note, this guide uses experience gains based on a maxed total account unless otherwise stated. All events are still worthwhile at lower levels and experience will need to just adjusted accordingly. Every title has a link to its corresponding page on RSWiki which should provide an experience table and more details for where my descriptions are confusing/incomplete.

It may seem a long list, but most of these things take mere minutes, or in some cases, seconds to complete and it's worth doing just about all of these things every day if you're interested in those skills.



Do not forget about reset tokens! The following useful D&Ds can be reset so you can do them all over again:

Wow Justin, what an amazing guide! I've never even thought of doing half of the things you've listed here but it just goes to show how much experience is on offer! I'll definitely be referring to this guide in the future. Thanks so much for sharing smile

Great guide.

I got a lot of argument with other people at Dwarf Traders, during the Thieving SWC. But nobody had anything to back up their claims that Abyssal Lurker gave more XP than Gloves of Silence/hour. Good to know for sure now. smile

Also, I don't believe you can gain equal ( I know you said similar ) XP rates at C2 if you woodcut as well.

To add to the farm run, as well. You can effect growth times negatively if you log in and out multiple times per hour/15 minutes. It is best, if farming, to stay logged in for hours at a time, or log out after planting and stay logged out for hours. Or for 75 minutes if waiting on herbs to grow.


RE: Dailies / Weeklies / Monthlies - Portus - 2013-10-06

Thanks Tay and Dregg for taking the time to read through and for your comments smile

I've not C2ed myself since EoC came out but I believe the rates are somewhere around 100k fishing and 80k woodcutting an hour together, though I'm sure not sure if the DG tasks have affected this at all (particularly with being able to bind a strong gatherers pot). But either way I suppose it is a bit of a stretch for me to call them similar. The point I was trying to get at was that unless you value woodcutting experience very little, Fish Flingers is slower fishing experience despite having the fastest raw fishing experience rate, if that makes sense. I'll give it an edit now, thank you.

I've not got data to support that an abyssal lurker doesn't help with experience, but I've done enough aura hours there both with and without to conclude that if it does make a difference it's very negligible. It's definitely pays for itself though in added loot so it's better to have it than not have it for those willing to put in the extra clicks. And it might help more at lower levels, I'm not sure.

My problem with farm runs these days is I'll log into a world, do plant my trees, "oh dang, sinkhole time!", world hop, do the sinkhole, "oooh warbands time!!", *world hop 3 times*, do some training, "ooh avatar in this world", *hop*, "oh wait, yew party in world 5!", *hop*, okay back to avatar world!, *hop". So it's been two hours and my trees haven't progressed once Tongue I'm giving my trees wayy more time than they need because it should stay above my lowest skill at all times anyway!

Thanks Justin, this guide is extremely useful! Ill definitely be doing the book of char daily from now on! Tongue


RE: Dailies / Weeklies / Monthlies - Blur - 2013-10-07

This is fantastic, really well explained. Thanks a lot for the tips!


RE: Dailies / Weeklies / Monthlies - Killians - 2013-10-07

Wow dude. This is great. I'll get to doing these a lot more now. Specially the slayer task one with abbysal demons. Great work here man. <3


RE: Dailies / Weeklies / Monthlies - Ava - 2013-10-07

Definitely saving this to my favorite guides list!! I can't imagine I'll get around to all of them, but it's very helpful to have a list of them compiled like this (with directions!).


RE: Dailies / Weeklies / Monthlies - Dave - 2013-10-08

Thanks, this is going to be really useful. I do have a few questions though.

Are dwarf traders any good with a lower tier thieving aura? I have only a tier 1 aura, and can't upgrade until I get more points.

Are there any other slayer helmets that would be good xp? I have a gargoyle helm, I'm guessing it's not a very good task but I haven't trained slayer since before eoc so I don't know what's what anymore.
