Saru's Guide on how to do Barrows. Every way included!

Featured Replies

I recently sold my flail i bought and have 550k and with to start barrowing and I Completely DESPISE slayer.

 

 

 

are chaos gauntlets and bolt (chaos) spells ok?, incase you don't know chaos gauntlets makes bolts sells hit like blast spells.

 

 

 

Please note i'm lvl 85 and i will be useing prayer pots.

 

 

 

EDIT:I have tried 2 barrows trips, succeeded in one and the second ran out of prayer pots with dh in tunnel and died.

 

 

 

EDIT2:I did not sell the flail for 550k, thats how much i had after is sold it. I know it's poor, but i'm hoping doing barrows will increase my cash to around 10-20m after like 50 trips

Saru if you still update this:

 

 

 

What about rune xbow purely ranging (not ur rune way) purely ranging. Prolly rune xbow w/ diamond e bolt. I used to do that when I still played.

 

 

 

-RangedCrave

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It works if you have high range. ;)

Dude, doesn't matter if you despise it, 55 in ANY skill is pretty easy.

 

 

 

But... Can't really help you there.

Since you bring prayer potions, Im guessing you take a sip every run. I never took a sip a barrows ;)

 

I use veracs method but i also use slayer dart for melee brothers. First Karil and then Ahrim with melee and then range respectively, and then dh with dart (all with pray). I normally have like 10 prayer points left so i waste it on veracs and use no safespot.

 

P.S. If your wondering, what if dharok appears at chest!? :(

Turn run on and turn autocast off. Keep 1 clicking on him and running back to the red square. He'll just stay at the yellow square.

That is the only kind I've not done, when I made the Guide, they did not exist. But pretty soon I'll fork in the cash for a gs, and make a guide.

Hey Saru (Its electro)! You seem to have not realized what a lot of people haven't.Staff of light has the same speed as a d scimitar and better stats :D .So, whats the point of having just a d scimitar when the Sol is your staff already?

They're different speeds.

Nice guide, very detailed. I can see you chucked in a few up to date pictures. But theres a fair amount of editing needed lol. Don't think Karils top+skirt is 250k any more, miss those days :P

no I know XD I was in the middle of editing, when I was banned. I'll get back to this guide after 99 Mining

I absolutely agree. However, if you can't tell, my guide is more directed to the pooorer versions. And while SW cape/Fire capes are easy to get cheaply/at low levels, 99 coooking/fletching is easier to get for son. And I prefer the look of skill capes.

epic guide saru, i used this for my first barrows run with my friend and i got torag platelegs my 3rd time there 100000000000000000/10 :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

The once was a mexican called pepsi,

Or maybe it's just he had Hep C,

He was a pretty cool bro,

Bros generally are you know,

He hailed from the land of 'taters,

He was known to hate many-a-hater,

He likes a girl named Lacey,

His thoughts about her are kind of racy,

And also his dad likes to [rooster].

Great guide Saru! Although I realize it is under construction, I'd just like to point out a few things.

 

- Be aware of what you are risking before you go down there. I know it seems obvious, but the Staff of Light does not have a very high value and will usually be lost on death unless you have some extremely cheap gear.

 

- The Staff of Light special is incredibly useful for killing Dharok without prayer. If you have Dharok in the tunnels, you may only want to spec Karil 3 times so you can use the Staff of Light special when you find Dharok in the tunnels. No need to use a prayer pot, just kill him like you would Guthan or Torag.

 

- Somebody else already covered the capes: SW cape, Fire cape, and God capes are better than trimmed skillcapes. However I prefer the look of the skillcapes as well. :thumbsup:

 

- A holy wrench is helpful to bring for a few extra prayer points per dose.

 

I'm interested to see the end product once you are done renovating. :thumbup:

Ahh, how i love my SoL! But be sure to add a Battle robes setup, im getting those ^^ My friend has them and hes only using Ice barrage/blitz, he does like 60 chests in one trip and use no food or prayer pots, hes not getting any ks either and relying on speed to easier get barrows items. He looses about 30k? per chest but he can do very many a hr. Last time he did it he was looting chests for 3 hrs and profited 12 mil.

6 Effigys
1 D Med - 1 D Dagger
1 Verac's Helmet - 1 Guthan's Platebody
