Favorite Barrows Set

Featured Replies

I was having this same discussion with a freind earlier and we argued about whether Guthans or Dharoks was better.

 

 

 

I claimed Dharoks was better becuase it was cheap and can hit 50's.

 

 

 

He said Guthans was better because it can heal you.

 

 

 

Then we put our favorites in order like this:

 

Dharoks > Guthans > Veracs > Ahrim > Karil > Torag.

 

 

 

We generally agreed that Torag was not good.

 

 

 

So, the topic for discussion is: Which Barrows set is in your opinion the best, most cost efficent, or just coolest? And the worst?

Depends what you want to do really...

 

 

 

Veracs helps stakers out ALOT!

 

 

 

Dharoks owns the wildy (I've seen a guy be 2 hit with 39 and 41!)

 

 

 

Karils is the best ranger gear.

 

 

 

Ahrims owns for Deep Wildy

 

 

 

Guthans gets you the fire cape.

 

 

 

And Torags.... erm... is cheap...

Karil good for CW

 

Torag good for barrows and all round melle def

 

Guthan good for slayer

 

Dhaorck good for training

 

Arhim..Good mage Attack

 

Verca good for dueling and KQ,

 

So id say torag is best.

Quest cape got at 25th july 2007! Did grim tales and mouring end 2 to get same day!

99/99 strength got at 30th september 2007

guthan>ahrim=karil>verac>dharok>torag :D

 

 

 

Guthan can let you finish a slayer assignment with little to no food.

 

Ahrim lets you make snownoobs very easily. :twisted:

 

Karil has high magic def (good for c wars or slayer).

 

Dharok can be used for fast strength training.

 

And torag... is cheap.

guthan then verac

I haven't seen much people PK with Veracs... :shame:

cgknightofroundsorigina.jpg

99 Hits, Attack, Strength, Defence, Mage, Summoning, Slayer, Ranged, 96/99 Prayer

Depends on what you want.

 

 

 

I have them all, and they're all useful in their own little ways.

 

 

 

Veracs is probably my favorite, it is useful for duels and very helpful for my barrows.

 

 

 

Dharok is really just a fun set. It's a lot of fun to hit high numbers, but it's not practical.

 

 

 

Guthan is second favorite. It is a necessity for DK's, and very helpful in slayer and most other kinds of training.

 

 

 

Karils is mainly just used for fight ahrim in barrows or surviving mages in CW. The bow owns though, I get great hits even at 71 range.

 

 

 

Ahrims is probably the coolest armor. It is the only mage robes that give decent melee defense. Useful for pk'ing, cheap and effective(not like I take mine to wildy though. :P )

 

 

 

And lastly torags, it was my first set. The hammers and special effect suck. But it is great defensive armor. The best in game if I'm not mistaken. It's also the cheapest melee, which is good.

Quit RS, combat 104, total 1651

Verac = Guthan > Dharok > Karil > Ahrim > Torag.

 

 

 

8-)

Guthans > Dharok > Ahrims > Karils > Verac > Torags

 

 

 

thats just my favorites though.

 

overall it would be:

 

 

 

Guthans > Verac > Ahrims > Dharok > Karils > Torags

 

 

 

torag is worst because of terrible effect and same def as guthans with dharok legs or dharoks with guthan helm.

 

100% useless to anyone

 

 

 

veracs i dont need because i dont kq or need for dueling, i already hit through everythings defence.

 

100% useless to me

 

useful to other people for kq, staking, jad etc.

 

 

 

karils beautiful mage defence and bow, bad effect

 

10% useful to me

 

 

 

ahrims beautiful melee def for great mage att, most people pk in it

 

20% useful to me

 

 

 

dharok hit 70s on other players if bored, some people pk in it

 

20% useful to me

 

 

 

guthans train slayer without effort, afk jad, afk with phat set at dags

 

50% useful to me

Bbc_3.gif

4000000657th to 99 cookin

555555406th to 99 flethcin

i melee as much as i can training stuff like prayer, slayer, def and i use melee as like my main source of income too by kq, dk etc. so my list is mainly

 

 

 

1. guthan - no bank trips, space to bring potions

 

2. torag - even when bring guthans training, i have a torag plate an legs to train in, the def is the best why wouldnt you.

 

3. dharok - i get my hp super low 10ish pray and kill stuff. works out good.

 

4. verac - just to hit thru armor and pray, the prayer bonus is good, makes barrows a wizz.

Verac > Dharock > Guthan > Ahrim > Karil > Torag

Interrested in joining the cabbagy madness? Click here to go to our forums, and say hi ^^

lol one of the biggest pvp updates of the year, and tip it is discussing granite

Depends on the use.

 

 

 

But I would say guthans, just for the training.

99 ranged | 99 magic | 99 defence | 99 hitpoints

Remember, it's just a game

Feel free to add me on RS. :) Always ready for a chat.

Verac > Dharock > Guthan > Ahrim > Karil > Torag
He's got it. Verac = pvp, dharok = very fast training, guthan = very long training, ect.

awesome_bloodvelds_siggeh.pngpossiblesig11.png

:^_^: I drew that smilie, btw, along with a few more used by this site.

Classic bloodveld for lyph3! Although I do like the new ones.

Like a ninja, here I was, gone I am now.

BUT! I may be back! Add my new account, Dr Bloodveld!

Guthan is the most useful, for me at least. I don't stake. I recently fell in love with the look of Ahrim though..Its great looking :D

 

 

 

Veracs is also prett cool looking, and I use Karil for my ranging armor, so I have to give it some mention. :P

35b9enp.jpg

whats your favorite are usually considered spam... :-k

Guthan> Verac> Karil

 

 

 

These are the only 3 I have and use. The others are of no use to me, I'll put them in an order for the sake of it:

 

 

 

Ahrims (To me magic is a noncombat skill with slayer dart for barrows DK's, no use for it)> Dharock (I hate everyhting that hits slow)> Torag (useless̢̮â¬Å¡Ãâò, if I want defence I'll just equip my guthans plate and body to save inv space)

Retired

2146 overall - 136 combat - 6 skillcapes

 

Plus I think the whole teenage girl thing will end soon (hopefully), because my girlfriend is absolutely in love with him(she is 18), and im beginning to feel threatened by his [Justin Bieber] dashing looks.

I think

 

 

 

Guthans>Veracs>Dharoks>Ahrims>Karils>Torags

 

 

 

Ahrim and Dharok are very close in my opinion

Making natures for life

There is no "best" set. All of the sets have their own drawbacks and benefits.

 

 

 

Benefits

 

Dharok: Cheap, good for PvP.

 

Verac: Prayer bonus, can wear while maging (top gives -6 mage compared to plates, which give -30 mage), skirt is cheap, sometimes good PvP, Fire Caping, KQing.

 

Guthan: Slayer, training, free food, Fire Caping, DKing.

 

Torag: Cheap, good defense.

 

Karil: Best mage defense in game, cheap.

 

Ahrim: Best mage attack in game.

 

 

 

Drawbacks:

 

Dharok: useless other than for PvP.

 

Verac: Expensive, you lose 2M helm if you die (I think).

 

Guthan: Expensive, you lose 6M spear if you die. Is ~25% less effective than whip in terms of damage/hour, making it less efficient training.

 

Torag: Useless set effect.

 

Karil: Same range attack as Black Dhide, even less Melee Def.

 

Ahrim: No range defense, low melee defense.

 

 

 

In usefulness:

 

Guthan>Verac>Karil>Ahrim>Dharok>Torag
