Talk:Curse

When one looks at all of the options for (f2p) magic XP without HP XP your main options are: Cursing or High Alchemy

Curse Pros Can utilize earth staff

Cons Requires mouse movement

Cost 2 Water Runes + 1 Body Rune = 29 XP 16(2)+1(10) 42GP/29XP ~1.448gp/xp

I still need to look into how long the casting animation takes to determine xp/hour to see if this is faster than casting high alchemy.

High Alchemy Pros Click in the same spot with correct timing for less strain on the wrist or use of the numpad for the same result SLIM CHANCE of making a profit if one buys their items to be alchemized (?) at below market price. I have yet to find anything that one can find in large amounts to alchemize for a profit.

Cons Must have something to cast the spell on

Cost Ah, the good stuff XP/Spell = 65 I have (theoretically) found that Adamant Platebodies are the best item to high alchemize if you are buying all of your items from the GE.

This is all assuming I did my math correctly.

Adamant Platebody=9810 Nature Rune=228, (is this current?) USE A STAFF OF FIRE Coins for Alching:9984


 * (9984-9810-228)|/65=.83GP/XP

Compare: .83GP/XP High Alch 1.448GP/XP Curse

Cursing also gives less than half the amount of XP that alching does. This means it would require >2x the amount of spells that high alching would. This also means 2x of moving the mouse from the spell menu to the target compared to no mouse movement with high alching. If anyone with 55+ magic uses curse to train magic without training HP you need to think again.

Teleporting isn't even applicable because it's crazy expensive and not fast enough to make it worth it.

If someone finds something that is more cost effective let me know.
