I was 20 defence for quite a long time (was in an pure NH clan for about 5 years) and decided to go for max, 20 maxes at 2198 so I went for 22 instead (2200 or 2299 with sailing).
No extra combat levels but that doesn't really matter when you're a 106 combat pure!
Hunter is good, I find Maniacals are the best method for me personally since I can just watch youtube and alt-tab (Even better with baskets of bananas so you don't have to pick up bones).
Apart from that the odd birdhouse run - I don't currently have the herb sack for Herbiboar, but I have also been doing some black chins with no tick manipulation. I caught 1500+ without no deaths yesterday!
