Hill giants aren't as good as Flesh crawlers, exp-wise.

Everyone thinks hill giants are fast experience. No they aren't. They just make up for the money you lost while fighting them. They are extremely slow experience. Trust me, you could just go kill lvl 35 flesh crawlers in the southeast end of the 2nd floor of the security stronghold dungeon. 100xp each crawler, and they only hit 1's (but they have high attack) they are never crowded, maximum three people at a time. If you're a member with 43 prayer you could probably get an inventory full of prayer potions and just stay there with protect melee or even use sharks. (they need to hit at least 20 times for you to eat a single shark lol) If you're nonmembers even trout will suffice and pizzas and lobsters (maybe wine and stews and tuna as well) will work wonders. The only problem is the drops aren't that good, but that's not the point. Flesh crawlers are training monsters, not loot monsters. Good training from lvl 35-70 IMO.

They're alright, although members shouldn't use sharks or prayer pots on them, as its a bit expensive.

The best experience monsters for members are experiments, as they have 50 hp, low defense have a max hit of 1, and rarely even manage that.

Newb training. -.-

For higher level players, Hillies are good experience, we bury the bones, we don't sell them.

So, use a slash weapon and bury the bones, the prayer levels will compensate for the 10% slowdown..

Sub is right, but I'm not high level so yea. I just think that going to flesh crawlers with lobsters is good, they drop good herbs and gems so it's a moneymaker of sorts.And it's right that it'd be a waste to use sharks for their, I'd rather use monks if I'm going for high healing. But bringing like I said lobster which is a good healing for the price is something I'd recommend incase you get a rannar or something.

who buries bones, specially big bones when they're fighting giants nowadays >.>
I leave them there lol, just kill drags and do those if your a "high level".

i just went down to flesh crawlers yesterday, and yep, flesh crawlers are a good alternative for people of lower levels. it isnt as crowded as hill giants normally are either, so you actually end up training faster. one disadvantage is that flesh crawlers dont drop bones, so you dont get to train prayer.
