PROTIP: Most decent Slayers wear Proselyte on a few tasks. I'll reiterate what another poster said: They aren't flashy and expensive for the purpose of being flashy and expensive. They're better and more effective, which is why people use them. You may not mind getting severely reduced Slayer experience due to your crappy armor, but most Slayers would disagree. I like not having to eat every two seconds, which is why I use Barrows. Or you can stfu and let him wear bronze if he wants to, why are you trying to turn him? Maybe your trying to make yourself believe that barrows is the only way to go? Whatever you're doing it sure as hell don't do no good here, so get out.
