Now that golems are out of the picture what's the alternative? I see people use clockwork scorpions from time to time. How high will those take me and how low do I need to be to get gains off them anyone know?

Hey, use 100% poison weapons on wolf spiders, only problem is you need around 55 taming/lore or an alt char
Golems arent out of the picture... they just need to be repaired by a tinker from time to time. I personally use ice ogre lords and a 100% poison weapon....but I have a Spellweaver tame them for me 
I dont think you need taming on the same account for the wolf spider....you just need a tamer to go get you one and then friend you to it...it will stick around for the day atleast.

for ice ogre lords you need your skill around 80, 1 use jewels ( +15 weapon skill, +15 tactics, 15 hci max SSI)..remember UBW can work for you too
I buy to 40, train on slimes in abyss to 50 ( usually takes about 5-10 mins) the go wack on an ice ogre...once gains slow and I hit about 100 I drop one piece of jewelry.

Bah! Just tried both spider and ogre lord. I think zath was right, at 107 swords I might as well just camp blackthorn's. So if you see a wolf spider wandering around ice isle on Legends, tame away. He's earned a nap in a nice dark cave somewhere.
Anywhere you can get some drops while training may as well. I got great gains working Neira spawn repeatedly. I'd also farm lucky coins in Underworld. Parox/Medusa are really easy fights too.
Spider took my anatomy and macing to 120 thank you! Tactics stuck at 116.9 for like two days, nothing a few sots won't fix ! Will try orge lord next, tons of melee skills to work zzzz
hey all, making my first dexer.
been hitting the spider for hours,
started with 100 anatomy
tactics are stuck at 25, started at 0
fencing is stuck at 0, using the kryss with 35 fencing
what do i need to do to start gaining?
THanks!

With most skills:
-Eat the highest level power scroll you can as early as possible
-Go to New Haven, buy the skill to 40 (400 gp)
-Take the Instructor quest, this gives accelerated gains until 50, this must be done in Old Haven to the East
-When you go over 50, resign/quit the quest, because if you complete it you can never do it again on that character, and one day you might want to
-At that point you can either jewel up to 70+ and use whatever passes for a golem thee days to train all the way to cap
-Or hit the forests, you'll gain off forest animals until 70-80, at which point you can gain off low level monsters (again, Champ Spawns are great for this reason as they have low, mid and semi-high level spawn and you get stuff while you're doing them)
With skills like Anatomy you can also make a looping macro to spam while you're training, to either use the skill on the same target repeatedly, or to use the skill on multiple different targets within a set radius, to do this you need to use the macros for set update range (don't know if there is an E.C. equivalent of this), a good place to do this is obviously at a bank. If you do it while in Lich Form working Healing at the same time you can potentially have 2-3x the chance to gain.

Here's my alternative method that doesn't require pets:
Buy 40 skill points, quest to 50.
Use junk armor with good stam.
Make macro in EC: target closest, attack target, use bandage, healself, wait 4 seconds. Repeat macro
Vamp Embrace + slayer works too but you end up killing stuff real fast.
Or get a HPR regen suit + dog form.
50-65 mummys in deceit
65-85 gold eles in blackthorn. You will have to take a step occasionally if you're in tram.
85-120 trogs in painted caves
You can macro this while you watch a movie or what not.
You can also add in whatever else you might want to macro, like bushido - lightning strikes.
For archery/throwing, I went to the slimes pit.
