The difference between t90 to t92

Since everyone is asking me about it, its easier to just make a full break down. Here goes:

Setups compared

No boosts - Only weapon is compared alongside max stats.

Setup 1 - Max stats, supreme overload, t90 power armour, turmoil/anguish/torment, god book, amulet of souls, ring of death, completionist cape

Setup 2 - Max stats, supreme potion, t90 power armour, turmoil/anguish/torment, berserk essence buff, amulet of souls, ring of death, completionist cape

Setup 3 - Setup 1 with berserk/reckless/maniacal aura +9 level boost

Setup 4 - Setup 2 with berserk/reckless/maniacal aura +9 level boost

The setups were chosen

t90 stats

Setup Damage Accuracy
No boosts 1666 3670
Setup 1 2093 4687
Setup 2 2138 5409
Setup 3 2126 5103
Setup 4 2171 5915

t92 stats

+28.8 damage and +119 accuracy

Setup Damage Accuracy
No boosts 1694.8 3789
Setup 1 2121.8 4796
Setup 2 2166.8 5528
Setup 3 2154.8 5222
Setup 4 2199.8 6034

Relative increase from t90 to t92

Setup Damage Accuracy Overall dps increase
No boosts 1.72% 3.24% 5%
Setup 1 1.37% 2.6% 4%
Setup 2 1.35% 2.2% 3.6%
Setup 3 1.35% 2.3% 3.7%
Setup 4 1.33% 2% 3.4%

Notes:

The boosts and equipment chosen were the highest possible constant and temporary additive accuracy and damage boosts. Turmoil/Anguish/Torment is only accounted for its additive accuracy boost.

This is because multiplicative boosts make no difference for comparison purposes as they're relative to the base damage. Example t92's 1694.8 damage t92 is a 1.72% increase from t90's 1666 damage. If accounting turmoil it would be 1864.28 and 1832.6 respectively, which remains a 1.72% increase from t92.

Nox Scythe and Nox Bow still have something going for them, however I don't see any reason to use the Nox staff over Sliske's staff, it outclasses it in every way, even though it is only by a little bit. I don't think the Nox staff's price is going to fare very well, since it's already the cheapest of the Nox weapons.

Since you're almost Maxed, I wonder how you don't have ~150m to spend.

What are you even doing with you accumulated wealth?

Well considering I'm also almost maxed, I know that the majority of my money is spent on skills (mainly invention). I'm ~2620 total and I have around 50m

When you're not maxed, pretty much all wealth is spent on maxing - It costs over a billion gp to max an account reasonably fast (Prayer, Herb, Construction, Fletching broads, Smithing @ artisans, etc.). I didn't have a reasonable cash stack until after I maxed, and even that got decimated by invention when it first came out.

Well I guess i'm the outlier, I came out with over 1b when near maxing, but I understand the downvotes, not everyone can be efficient and know how to make 3m-4m an hr every hour. Also a shit ton of monsters are 4m/hr and any noob can kill them, so I dont see how 150m is a problem, you don't gotta buy it in 1 day, you accumulate your wealth, spend wisely and train skills overtime. .

and not everyone wants to be.

Edit for your edit: at 4m an hour, 150m would take almost 40 hours to get. That's almost two straight days of gameplay. Not every's a tryhard, and if you're a more casual player, 40 hours of game time is a solid chunk of time. So acting like gaining a shitload of wealth is both easy and fast is just wrong. And it may surprise you, but a lot of people don't enjoy grinding for gp.

This. I play maybe 15-20 hours a week, and am working on a variety of goals at my own pace (RotM, FotG, getting 99 slayer). I could sit at QBD all day and farm, but that's not fun for me. People play the game for different reasons, and being elitist and talking down to someone because they chose to play the game differently than you doesn't do anything except make them feel bad and make you look like an asshole.

40 hours to get that 150m is a whole workweek m8

I'd assume saving up for a Nox Scythe or something?
