"L2 Hitpoints" is also really close. I'm not sure who will be first, but I think it'll be a battle between the two of us. I don't really care who finishes first tbh, I just want to get it over with, and if L2 finishes first then all I can do is congratulate him (but that doesn't mean that I won't try to be first of course) :p
I guess we'll have to wait and see. I'm currently f2p for the weekend so hopefully I'll find some time to do more SW during the coming few weeks.
Hope to see you at SW again soon Rizzo :)

Hey V a!
I don't know if u rem me - u actually just recently posted in my thread. Thanks for that; I was pretty surprised, and delighted, to see your post.
I have a few questions... I apologize in advance if you've already answered some of these. I did read a good 50% or so of your thread, looking to see if someone else had already asked, but man it is a lot of pages. :D
You must have cannoned a good chunk of Slayer... how did you deal with tasks where cannons couldn't be used? Did you just say the heck with points and get a new task from Turael/Spria? What if they assigned something that couldn't be cannoned?
I'm trying to avoid hp exp myself for a bit, to get my qc at the level I want... So I'm looking to SW for the combat exp / levels I need to finish off the quests. Just curious what you do during your SW time? Any tips to maximize points? Do you world hop or is that pointless?
I get the impression money hasn't been all that much of a challenge for you. I may be a pro at low level combat... I'm terrible at merching. I can make money and I'm never broke, but I feel like I'm always grinding cash like anything else. When you're low on funds, if ever, what's your go to skill? Not looking for any "secrets", just curious if you have any general tips. Cannonballs are starting to break me. Lol.
SO much support... I can empathize with being a slave to your goals. Hope you can put it behind you soon!
Best Regards,
Niap

@Niap Terces, I don't think any 10hp pure has completed smoking kills, so we can't use points anyway. When I usually get a task i cannot do, i go reset at Turial, and if he ends up giving a un-cannonable task, such as in the slayer tower, recoils are your best friend. Hope that helps a little :) Blackston is a Naabe.

@HP 1O "I don't think any 10hp pure has completed smoking kills"
Really? I mean, I would expect it to be very rare... Smoking Kills does have a combat req of CB 85. Which is hard, but obviously achievable in this group of power 10 hit pointers. Also... none of the 3 pre-req quests reward any hp experience.
"...I go reset at Turial, and if he ends up giving a un-cannonable task, such as in the slayer tower, recoils are your best friend."
Holy crap... My respect has increased 10 fold. Lol. I mean, lowest level tasks or not... entire tasks done, multiple entire tasks done with nothing but rings of recoil? Wow.

@Niap Terces, The problem with Smoking Kills is the boss. the room doesn't allow you to set up a cannon, and banshees heal far to fast to recoil it. I'd like to experiment later on with vengeance, but that would only work if others are allowed in the room with you due to not being able to do Lunar Diplomacy.
Recoiling tasks isn't too bad, the occasional banshee task or crawling hand task doesn't take too long. I think recoiling 30 something banshees took me 2 hours prior to starting Smoking Kills. A Crawling Hand task took like an hour for 26 with recoiling, had to zammy brew my defence down just so they could hit.

Niap, I cannoned all of my Slayer (apart from some XP from lamps and penguins). Whenever I get a task that I can't cannon, I change it at Tureal. The only things Tureal assigns that I can't cannon are Crawling hands and Dwarves, so I have to recoil those.
World-hopping while playing Soulwars usually forces you to join the losing team, I always just join a crowded world (usually 44) and follow the high-level Familiars when a new game is about to start. It's not that hard to see which team will win, and is 90% of the time 3 Zeal.
When I started playing on this account I used to alch in the Party-room whilst getting 99 Magic, I got around 50M+ worth of drops whilst alching there, and that was pretty much my start-up fund. After that I merched with it, and decided never to go below the 100M total wealth. Apart from merching it's *really* hard to make any kind of money, but I also used to do the Gnome Delivery minigame which can be quite profitable if you're lucky, you might give that a try.
And yeh, there's no way to kill the Banshee Mistress in Smoking kills with a recoil, as she get's her HP back too quick, by the time your ring deals more then 50 damage she already healed back to full HP. - If she didn't heal herself it would be quite easy, but I tried many times, and even with a pack-yak full of rocktails I never got further then 3/4 of her HP.
It's impossible to get Vengeange with 10 HP, as the subquest gives a 1.2k HP XP reward or something, and I'm 100% sure that other players can't enter the bossroom, as you enter via a cutscene.
Recoiling a task isn't that bad though, I use Dwarven Stouts to get my defence level to 0 to make them hit more often. Recoiling a task takes like an hour or something max, only annoying thing about it is that I never really pay attention, which sometimes results in a trip to lumby :p
