    Guess it's time to get 99 summoning.

    Do you think I can:
    1) gather enough charms to get 150m+ summ xp by the weekend
    2) bot 150m summ xp that weekend to get 200m summ?
    3) not be broke afterwards

    For 150m xp, you need 340832 crimson charms (doing steel titans, highest non-talon beast pouch, and making scrolls). Each of these costs 6638 GP to make and the scrolls sell for 3710 GP, or 2928 loss per charm; this totals 997.5m GP. Double xp weekend makes that 499m and 170416 charms.

    If you were to collect charms every second of every day from now until the 25th of September, you would need to collect 139.75 charms per hour to reach your goal. If you play 2/3rds of the day, or exactly 16 hours per day, you would need to gather 210.13 charms per hour. The wiki quotes Ancient Cavern Waterfiends at 100-140 crims/hour, Gladii and Rock Lobsters at 150+ crims/hour, and Chaos Tunnels Waterfiends at 400+ crims/hour.

    So perhaps.

    Edit: As for the question of whether you could do it:

    This guy claims to have made this timelapse from 30 hours of footage. If this is true, he used roughly 170k~ charms in a 30 hour period; a player could, with 2 16 hour days (or more, if you nolifed it hard) finish this up with no trouble. If you have a bot that's as efficient as this guy is, then certainly you can.

    No he doesn't; that's the point of doing it the way he was. Bring your third material noted, sell to Pikkupstix and rebuy. Turn pouches into scrolls.

    Seems like summoning is all the rage here. Would I be wasting my time going for 99 construction and smithing on DXP?

    I wouldn't call it a waste of time, I mean most people train summoning because its a pain. You have to get charms and then the secondary items are expensive.
    So double EXP weekend helps.

    Do what you like better though, any buy able skill is good too train as you should save some money (if you dont overpay for mats)

    I've always heard that gathering charms on the way to 99 slayer will yield 99 summoning. Is this not true?

    Generally speaking yes it will, however you may get unlucky or not know how to pick your tasks. Research is key.

    The thing I'm botting has shot up 50% in the last 3 days, I'm assuming because of the double xp weekend announcement Maybe its time for 99 summoning after 11 years

    That's the one thing I dislike about DE weekends... price fluctuations. :/
    Good luck if you do go for it!

    You can make a lot of money if you anticipate it though. But I agree, its a pain in the ass while skilling.

    Already have everything banked, but 99 summoning from 93 is costing me around ~30m. Much better than having to farm more charms, but is that an okay price? And does the Amalodd VoS stack with double xp?

    If you do Granite Lobsters it should only cost you ~18m.
