headshot007111 Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 Tip.It staff note: This guide has been copied to the Archive of Wisdom http://forum.tip.it/viewtopic.php?t=558996 This topic is for replies to the author and discussion. Guide to soloing the KBD This guide is intended for people who know where the KBD is, so please don't ask, "How do I get there?" -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A suggestion by rew_den: A safe and quick way to get to the KBD is by using a canoe from lumby or barbarian village to get to lvl 35 wildy, from there the KBD is a short walk. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Most guides, and most people recommend using Protect from Magic while fighting the KBD. Which does help... a bit. My strategy uses Protect from Melee, and with it I can kill an average of 3 KBDs per trip. Recommended stats Combat: 95+ Attack: 80+ Strength: 80+ Defense: 60+ Mage: 80+ Prayer: 60+ Recommended equiptment Helmet: Beserker > Warrior > Any helmet with decent Mage defense Amulet: Fury > Glory > Any other decent Amulet Body: Karils top > Black H'Body > Any other decent Mage defense Legs: karils skirt > Black H'Chaps > Any other decent Mage defense Weapon: Abyssal Whip > Dragon Scimitar > DDS Shield: Anti-fire Shield Cape: Fire cape > God cape > Legends cape > Normal cape Boots: Infinity > Climbing > Ranger > Any other decent Mage defense Gloves: Barrows > Family Crest > Any other decent gloves Inventory Note: Inventory may vary depending on on stats. .2 Prayer potions (4) .1 Super attack (4) .1 Super strength (4) .2 Anti fire (4) .1 Super anti-poison (4) .1 Poisoned Dagger (For special) .Ectophial > Any other 1-click teleport .Sharks > Monkfish > Swordfish RAHK also suggested using Super defense potions. I havn't tried using them personally, and I don't know how much they'll actually help. But if you want to try them, go right ahead. Video vs KBD Video vs KBD Heres the long awaited updated version of the video lol, the old one was from before the dragon and demon update, plus the link was broken. The Strategy Once you're at the poison spiders, drink 1 dose of Super anti-poison, anti-fire, Super attack and Super strength. Pull the lever and put on Protect Melee, then special out on the KBD with your Dagger. Once your specials are gone, switch to your main melee weapon. Once it's dead, pick up the drops, eat, and then switch worlds or wait for the KBD to respawn. (I switch worlds as to not waste potion additions) The reason why my strategy owns, is because if you have a high Mage lvl and Mage defense, his attacks won't hit you that often. By the time he's dead, you'll have to use 3 to 5 Sharks normally. Just repot (All potions) when neccesary and keep your Prayer above 20 just incase. Anti-fire runs out in 7 minutes while Super attack, strength and anti-poison run out slowly as well. I usually use 4 Sharks per kill and maybe 40 Prayer points per kill. Once it's dead, I pick up the drops and switch worlds. If you notice that he starts hitting you often, it's probably because the anti-fire potion has wasted, so watch out for that. (When anti-fire runs out in 7 minutes, it makes an explosion sound you can hear) Hope my guide helps : Thanks to Remoteman for convincing me to write this guide RAHK for ideas and suggestions Lep1423 for final layout edit And all of you for reading my guide About me Hi, my RSN is King Gorax, I'm 108 combat and I wrote this guide because I saw so many people killing the KBD in groups of 3+ and only getting 1 or 2 kills per trip. This is mainly because they Protect Mage, and his melee attack owns them!!! This is the first guide I have ever written, for anything. ~Guide to Solo'ing the KBD~ 99 Cooking | 99 Firemaking | 99 Attack | 99 defense | 99 Hitpoints Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chavous Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 Is it really that easy? I am 105 combat and didn't know I could kill that many by myself. It is very enticing. Do you get any good drops often? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
headshot007111 Posted August 1, 2006 Author Share Posted August 1, 2006 Its pretty easy, i got quite a few rune drops, havent got a drag drop yet. ~Guide to Solo'ing the KBD~ 99 Cooking | 99 Firemaking | 99 Attack | 99 defense | 99 Hitpoints Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indalecio Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 Wow, man. I didn't think it could be done, or at least that you'd need some really high stats. (for example, my lvl 124 friend said once that he could barely ever solo the KBD. Mind you, this was before the days of whips, dragon scimitars, or ... well you know, when dinosaurs roamed RS.) Bravo, though. I'll try this out later. :thumbsup: Oh yeah. That's right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotteh Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 By the way, Archer helms give negative melee attack stats. You don't want to be taking one of those... ^^ Support it or get confused by pixel-mess :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
headshot007111 Posted August 1, 2006 Author Share Posted August 1, 2006 Archer is optional, it gives mage def. ~Guide to Solo'ing the KBD~ 99 Cooking | 99 Firemaking | 99 Attack | 99 defense | 99 Hitpoints Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RAHK Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 If you open a level interface you won't lose the boosted stats (you also won't regain hp or recover lowered stats.) You can also leave your prayer on without it draining. I like to reacquaint myself with the smithing tables. :3> P.S. Why don't you use super def pots? That would cut down on food consumption I would think..?

headshot007111 Posted August 1, 2006 Author Share Posted August 1, 2006 Well since ur using protect from melee u dont get hit by his 25s. Cause i noticed that with pray mage i have to eat every 2nd hit. ~Guide to Solo'ing the KBD~ 99 Cooking | 99 Firemaking | 99 Attack | 99 defense | 99 Hitpoints Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAHK Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 Well since ur using protect from melee u dont get hit by his 25s. Cause i noticed that with pray mage i have to eat every 2nd hit. Wouldn't a super def pot lower the damage recieved from his mage attacks, though? That is what I am asking. Whether or not the bonus defense would save more than 20hp.

headshot007111 Posted August 1, 2006 Author Share Posted August 1, 2006 Oh, well super defense raises ur defense lvl, which affects the damage u take from melee, but mage lvl affects how often u get hit by mage, so in this case super defense wouldnt help. ~Guide to Solo'ing the KBD~ 99 Cooking | 99 Firemaking | 99 Attack | 99 defense | 99 Hitpoints Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryankart Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 Oh, well super defense raises ur defense lvl, which affects the damage u take from melee, but mage lvl affects how often u get hit by mage, so in this case super defense wouldnt help. Nope, it also depends on your defence level. Also, what kind of drops do you get? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAHK Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 Oh, well super defense raises ur defense lvl, which affects the damage u take from melee, but mage lvl affects how often u get hit by mage, so in this case super defense wouldnt help. From the kb: What affects my magic defence? Magic defence depends on your magic skill level, defence level and the magic equipment you are wearing. The higher your skill levels and magic bonus, the less likely you are to get hit. You will also receive less damage from a spell. That would seem to indicate the defense stat protecting from magic attacks.

headshot007111 Posted August 1, 2006 Author Share Posted August 1, 2006 Well i guess super def pots would help, but i dont use them since i use 2 sharks on average per kill. Super def pots would help. The KBD drops drag left halves, dmeds and lots of rune stuff. I gotta go now, be back 2morow, bye. ~Guide to Solo'ing the KBD~ 99 Cooking | 99 Firemaking | 99 Attack | 99 defense | 99 Hitpoints Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
