F2p Guide to ranging hills

[Sarad0m1nz]

This is my first time writing a guide so

- Please don't flame.
- Constructive Criticism will be appreciated.
- Please leave a post, it doesn't take too long and is good manners.

As you all know this is a f2p guide to ranging hills and will include

- Safe Spots
- Drops worth mentioning
- Equipment
- Possibly around how much xp in an hour.

Ranging hills is only recommended for people with 40+ range. It's also possible with lower levels but higher lvl arrows such as mith / addy are required.

Range Equipment:

People with 40+ range, 40+ defence and Dragon Slayer completed, First options are the best but only switch to second option if you're unable to afford it.

-Rune Full Helmet / Coif
-Amulet of Power / Ammy of Accuracy
-D' Hide Body
-D' Hide Chaps
-D' Hide vambraces
-Fighting Boots / Leather Boots
-Cape (Any)
-Maple Shortbow
-Iron arrows / Bronze arrows

If you are below 40 range and defence, then the best recommended equipment is:

-Coif / Wizard Hat
-Studded Leather Body / Hardleather Body / Leather Body
-Studded Chaps / Leather Chaps
-Maple Shortbow / Willow Shortbow
-Amulet of Power / Amulet of Accuracy
-Leather vambs / Gloves
-Fighting Boots / Leather Boots
-Mith arrows at least as you'll be hitting harder on giant for a low level char.

You need a brass key to enter the little shack west of varrock. How to get it:

1.Go to Edgeville ( Top of Barbarian Village ).

2.Head to the Dungeon south of Edgeville Bank

3. Enter the dungeon and and follow this route to the brass key and hill giants.

4. Voila! Now that you're there you can start ranging them.

After you get the brass key you can enter the shack to the west of varrock.

Safe Spots :

Hill Giant Info:

Drops worth picking up :
Big bones , Nature Runes,Limpwurt Roots, Coins (add up over time), Uncuts ranging from saphhire to diamond, Law Runes.

Around 40k xp per hour is possible at a high level, perhaps 15k if under 40 range. That's my guide if you read please leave a post.

Nice well thought out guide

Good guide, annoy those melee's with your range.

cool guide but i would say that a better less crowded place to range hillz is in wilderness rite above FOG, i trained there at 70 range and it was still excellent experience for both prayer and range...

 

[rock'n4pennies]

why range/hide when u have 40 df good guide though 10/10

 

[Undefined]

That's quite a nice guide for some f2p players who need some range xp/cash. Pictures added a lot to the guide.

Thanks guys keep posting to keep the thread alive.

Lol Not really needed. Big Bone and Limp roots are good, but I suggest lobs if your f2p way more profit. Usually these places are packed.

 

[Dog Collar]

Simplistic, but nevertheless good

 

[Sharcoth]

You should add a part where you talk about how to attack two hills at the same time at the last spot you posted.

Also, consider some more cropping, or just circle spots on the map that can be used to hide. You don't need a picture for each place.

Other than those two things, it's a great guide
