ganon95 Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 snakeskin boots have long been the cheap alternative to ranger boots, but what about the new frog hide boots from the dorgesh-kaan city? lets compare shall we? Frog-Hide boots: attack: stab:+0 slash:+0 crush:+0 magic:-8 ranged: +2 Defence: stab: +1 slash: +1 crush:+1 magic:+0 ranged: +1 other: strength: +0 prayer: +0 requires: death to the dorgeshuun quest?? / ?? ranged lvl (someone help me here) price: 800 gp snakeskin boots: attack: stab:+0 slash:+0 crush:+0 magic:-10 ranged: +3 Defence: stab: +1 slash: +1 crush:+2 magic:+1 ranged: +0 requires 30 ranged price: 3-5k could frog hide boots be another cheap alternative? http://forum.tip.it/viewtopic.php?t=615955click link to go to ganon95 productionsrunescape requires a lot of skills, napoleon dynamyte would love this game i am the proud owner of the quest point cape; all quests done 12/04/06 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thus Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 I dont see how much cheaper you can go here. I mean, how expensive are the snakeskin boots that you need an EVEN CHEAPER replacement? :-k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mchainmail Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Well, snakeskin boots are like 25k, or are very labor intensive to kill snakes for, since they need like 8 skins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingKnight1 Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 ^More like 3k - 5k I've been crafting alot of snakeskin armour and its not alot of trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
munchkinmage Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Yeah.. they're not 25k. You can get the snakeskins easily in about five minutes on Mos'Le Harmless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freesia Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Whether it serves as a good replacement or not depends on the variety of quests you have done to access each of them. If you have not done cabin fever, just stick to frog boots, otherwise go for snakeskin IMO Strangely with WotLK so near, I wished I could delay it a bit to push through that last TBC content in MH/BT :'(.

Aquashock Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Its a nice alternative for pures, since i belive that snakeskin boots need 30 def. Not entirely sure about the reqs for these though, but im sure its 1 def ^^Click For Monster Hunting Blog (180M+ in drops)^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luker2d2 Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 well snakskin is hard to obtain but there isent much of a market for this stuff Kiss me, i'm part Irish! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theoknight2 Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 ya everybody sells boots or bandanas never skins which gets very annoying cause i dont think i can do cabin fever yet... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anonymouse_ Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Why not just get ranger boots? Even lvl 80s have 20M+ in their banks now :| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexDT Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 I'm level 91 and I've got about 1m. I'm fairly sure the boots require 20 defense and 20 ranged. However, it'd be better to spend the extra 5k on snakeskin boots, because if you're training for a long time it might affect the damage:broken arrow ratio, saving you money. :-k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

games_sneak Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 I recently got a rune kite for a pair of snakeskin boots (no i didnt scam), which i sold for 55k, so they are either expensive or seen as very hard to make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gilformen Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 eh, i bought two pairs of snakeskin boots for about 6k ea, which is cheap if you figure it this way, ranger boots: +8 range att, 2mil+ snake boots: +3 range att, 6k... so you get 3/8th the bonus for 1/333rd the price. ill take the snakeskin boots please. and yes i can afford a ranger set. its just that in my opinion, if you can get something that works almost as well for a fraction of the cost, why waste money? 32,606th to 99 magic || 15,388th to 99 dungeoneering || 12,647th to 99 farming14,792nd to 99 range || 24,954th to 99 herblore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikraz66 Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Eh... the only thing worth making out of snakeskin is chaps anyway (for clues). I range in boots of lightness usually, with full black d hide and archer helm. And yes, i can afford a ranger set, i just choose not to waste 5m+ on such a small bonus. Proud owner of a Quest cape!

Myweponsg00d Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Or, we could realize that tiny differences in ranged bonus aren't really noticeable, and the only reason we buy the expenisve ranger sets are just because they exist.

jessy87 Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Why not just get ranger boots? Even lvl 80s have 20M+ in their banks now :| even lvl 3s have party hats... what you said contributed no way to this topic, and was infact stupid as hell. the idea was to compared to boots abotu 1/1000th of the price of those boots. also, because they are 2mil+ each pair doesnt mean some1 wants to spend it on boots like that, i mean wtf? i could do so much more with 2mil buy torag buy whip kingdom for weeks mud staff dag king rings things that are so much better then boots people rarely use. i mean, i range... never. and other then training range up how often are you going to use range in wildy? or CW or a duel? like 10% of the time?
