thats like asking if fire capes are worth getting. Of course it is. What other body armour items give str and attack bonuses? (what other plates)

 

 

 

takes alot of time and money for a fire cape

Yes, and yes :D

 

 

 

Its nice for lower level monsters, and castlewars/fight pits.

ok i just played my first few games as a healer got to level 3 and got 30ish points not bad had to leave though

ugh i spent all my pts as a healer and got to lev 5. i was going to get the torso but the game kinda dried up.

don't have one, dont' plan on it...i'm gonna go for one of those hats :thumbsup:

Very very useful for pking, has slightly better slash def (Basically everyone except dharokers and rangers use slash) then rune plate and the strength bonus is very handy. Also saving 50k each time I die by just returning to grab my torso Helps. Definatly worth it imo.

The question is does it matter? +4 is relatively small.

 

 

 

 

 

However, i among many have spent 2.1+ mil on a berzerker ring, which gives the same bonuses.

 

 

 

So... The 7 hours that it would take you to get the plate roughly = 2.1m

 

 

 

It's up to you to descide if those +4 levels matter.

 

 

 

Personally, YES, I think it does. Why? I couldn't gain 4 strength levels in 7 hours.

 

 

 

And every single strength bonus equals a level...

 

 

 

And apparently the defences are about the same.

I have one, and to me it's worth it, partially because of stats partially because of looks

 

 

 

As long as you can find a good team, getting it doesn't take all that long and is relatively easy

Yep, i think they are worth it.

 

 

 

 

 

Def is slightly less in crush and stab, but its the same in slash.

 

 

 

you don't lose it when you die in wild (lvl 1-4) so you save money.

 

 

 

 

 

First torso took me like 5 days cause i got it when it first came out, my 2nd torso took me about 1 and a half days.

Working on it - 400 pts att - 400 pts healer - 400 pts collecter - 150 pts def - DEF is the worst. But it's taken me about 2 days.

Lol its so not worth it if ur a high level. Im so surprised people on here think its any good. +4 strength for a loss of roughly 50def points in all melle stats and ranged? (barrows).

I got mine 2nd day ba was out so i had smething different... and i never use it. :)

 

 

 

Defence is ftw.

Torso is pretty sweet only took me 2 days. Not like straight but around 5 hours. I love it tbh, I think it's quite worth it.

Unless you edge Pk or do slayer alot, Pointless. That's my personall opinion.

It is definitely not true for defense. Compare a level 90 defence person wearing full barrows and a level 80 defense person wearing full barrows plus rune boots. The level 80 defense person is a LOT easier to hit.

 

 

 

I highly doubt it for strength.

I have one and I think it's worth it.. it doesn't take too long to get if you find a semi-decent team and you know what you're doing. On the other hand.. in my opinion the loss of a fair bit of defence just isn't worth the +4 strength bonus it gives.. but it's good for easy slayer tasks/mini-games.

The strength thing is true...

 

 

 

However, I have beaten A LOT of rune pures with the figher torso with my rune plate on... the plate can sometimes be a huge advantage, even in pking.

Took me a bout a day to get mine.

 

 

 

Best plate in the game imo. Easy to get... good defence... +4 str...

yes definately, but whenever i stake a player with one, they end up losing most of the time. its not bound to give you a great advantage towards your offensive stats, but its decent if you want to hit harder and more accurate.

Yup I have one and I think it is definately worth it unless you plan to pk with or it or put it in danger, good for traning. Took me about 5 hours.

I have one and im not sure how long it took to get one however the game is very enjoyable if you have a good team, and took me ~ 3 days to get mastered in all and penance gloves and torso.

 

I definetly think that the extra str bonus is worth it as i use when slaying and it is still as easy to heal with guthan so why not use it.

I don't have one; but i want one since it can show my abs

I don't have one and I don't plan to get one.

Although being a defender sucks big time, getting it was fun and I like to have strength-boosting gear so I mine.

I have no idea what im doing in barb arena so Ive never played or found a good team to be on, obviously I don't have it but id like to get it
