Hello. I'd quite like to kill Nomad but the guides I see aren't really helpful to me since my summoning level is 1

Stats;

Attack - 86
Strength - 82
Defence - 83
Hitpoints - 85
Range - 76
Mage - 84
Prayer- 70
Summoning - 1

Combat: 105.


Any help with inventory, armour and strategy would be appreciated.

Cheers!

To be honest, theres no real way to do it with no summoning, a Terrorbird is nearly essential, as well as the use of the Spirit Kyatt.

You're going to have a VERY, VERY, VERY difficult time without a terrorbird/war tort and/or kyatt to help you against Nomad (Especially considering your other stats are sub-par as far as boss-like enemies go).  If you want a basic strategy though, basically have the same brew-NORMAL rest ratio as you would have with a BoB, try and get a good BGS spec in at the start of the fight, and use all the methods possible to not lose hp (Ie using the pillars to your full advantage).

[bigie]

way you could probably do it.. but be very tedious is to get outside of the orange mines and do the pillar hide technique... that will save u from taking 750 hp damage each time it does that... but have to be really careful not to step on the orange mines


other thing that might work is taking the new biscuits  to but it wont be easy to say the least.

use ruby bolts till he's charging for 1 under hp att.. then using darts or throwing knives seems to be very effective.. and if ruby bolts activate at this time it would kill u.  and use darts/knives to find the real one when he splits.

other than that its just going to take probably loads of time/money

[glasscube]

I think you will have a lot of troubles killing nomad without soul split or summoning.

[Wisky_is_Goo]

Cant use Ruby (e) bc he doesnt have enough healing power due to lack of brews in a BoB.  So diamond (e)'s the whole time, make sure to hide when he goes into mirror mode, avoid the 750 hit, and good luck lol

I had a little thought about this, it'd require a stroke of luck and a little bit of genious to get you there, but I'd say given the circumstances it'd be possible.

If you have the money you might want to buy a statius warhammer to lower his defence, each hit it lowers by 30% (if you hit a 1+) that would really help, you get 2 specs a bar (35% per spec)

Alternatively you could hope for a good Bandos Godsword spec (reduces defence depending on your hit and consumes 100% of spec bar but it's a cheaper method).

You'd definitely need to range and hide behind pillar to reduce damage, one fail to do so could be costly without a BOB.

for speccing with no bob you'd really have to pot at bank and leave the pots behind and take more brews, perhaps look into getting a chaotic crossbow from dungeoneering as it's +120 ranged (+30 better than rune) accuracy would be everything in this case although if his defense is low enoug you could kill him with a spork!

[Satenza]

I think I'll give it a go today using the pillar method and see how far I get, then I can see if it is at least possible! I did see a video with a guy using a BoB to carry brews but in the end he didn't require the additional ones. That was using the pillar method.

Thanks for all the advice, I might look into the BGS special at the start too.

Anymore tips would be appreciated and I'll let you know how I get on!

[Saunamajuri]

Without a terrorbird, my supplies would had ended sooner than Nomad would had died and I killed Nomad from the berserker stage almost entirely with spirit kyatt ambush scrolls.

Bgs special at the start is good and protect from melee + piety makes you almost invulnerable at the berserker stage. You have better stats than I do so it shouldnt be a problem.

Good luck, I had to try 12 times before succeeding.

[Quyneax]

You'll have a harder time than others but you can do it. Having said that I recommend you get overload or 90 range. Having that little marigin to make smaller mistakes is a HUGE help.

[Satenza]

I suppose some of it shall be a little luck!

On an unrelated note I saw Whiskey_Is_Goo in Canfis today.

Must agree with the name if the "Goo" actually means "Good".

[schmuall]

Any particular reason why you're handicapping your account in this way? I wish you the best of luck, but really, why no summoning?

[Satenza]

Cbf'd with summoning.

& would like to remain low level.

[Satenza]

Saunamajuri can I ask what equipment you took.
