i hit 22's with range more often then 15 or whatever with mage and i can reuse arrows.. its a bit hard to hit the melee brothers even if your range is in the 90s, and you can cast any spell in armor. i suggest magic dart or fire blast. you get minds and death runes pften at the end of a barrow trip well i went 3 runs with that set up only with monkfish got 200 bolt racks with some deaths and mids altogether.. i only spen like 20k or so otla.. i made the prayerpots and cought monkfish as well as killing chaos druids for mith bolts. had 3 food left after 3rd
