June 22, 200719 yr This is a simple question, and I wanted to see if people brought one or not, if you don't bring one to barrows, list what you bring instead of it. I personally, always need one. I've done 2.8k runs, and not got even closed to needing it. (Except that time when I got dced on Karil no prayer. =p) But, I can just imagine, the one run I don't have it, I get dced and I die. So, yes or no, why or why not? What do you bring instead? Ciao. ~Saru I have all the 99s, and have been playing since 2001.

June 22, 200719 yr who's the guy with the yellow phat on TIF... I hat phats... anyway... he does... all the time...
June 22, 200719 yr I always use one, ive only needed it once but its better safe than sorry and Im not sure anything I could equip there would provide much of an advantage
June 22, 200719 yr I would just to be safe (even though I don't Barrows (yet)). No one wants to lose their stuff, and I know I've had enough of the "I never shoud've..." situations. ~~Let The Dragon ride again, on the winds of time~~I've always felt as if I'm the only person who can understand the concept of sarcasm on the internet.
June 22, 200719 yr I personally bring it, because there is nothing else I can bring. Even the fighting ring (archer, warrior) arn't worth it. Plus karil and dharok doesn't "always" hit above 10% of your health, but its good to have just in case he doesn't and hits that right health mark :) Need help or advise? Have a question? Just PM me through Runescape or Tip.it. :)

June 22, 200719 yr I've always brought a ring of life to Barrows (except for one run when I forgot to take off my dueling ring), and so far, it's brothers 2, ring 2. I've died twice even with it (45 from Dharok, 20 from Karil), but twice Verac almost killed me and I ended up getting saved at the last minute. Is it worth it to bring Ring of Life? Definitely. The slight advantage of a combat ring isn't worth it, at least in my opinion.

June 22, 200719 yr @Darkpoop0=> You could wear any of the DK rings, or a Wealth if you think that would increase your chances, although there are varying opinions on that. On topic though, I always wore one when I used to do Barrows on Trunksbomb. Saved my life a few times, but then again, it tele'd me out when I didn't want it too as well. Better to be safe than sorry. ~Lunar Retired Tip.It Mod || Admin and Founder of Caesar 3 Mod Squad! All are welcome!

June 22, 200719 yr I usually wear one whenever going down, unless I recently broke it and am too lazy to make one. :oops: Near death experience story time!!! I was barrowing with Blackarch and I was at Guthan, so I thought it was going to be easy. Well I was wrong. An IM came up, read it, looked back to find myself low on health, I try and click on a monk, and I get hit for a 20, teled. Blackarch was laughing hard because I got hit a 24-19-20-tele. Found myself at Fally with 2hp. I am now known to afk Barrows. :-# A reflection is just a distorted reality held by glass and your mind.

June 22, 200719 yr i never bring one, i always have five prayer pots and monkfish, so i never take damage unless i'm at verac or in the tunnels. heck, i never wear a life, the most recent times i died, i got k0ed straight from 30+ health (by a pure and by damis). that, and very few monsters are going to leave me at 7 health... I painted some stuff and put it on tumblr
June 22, 200719 yr it has saved me + full guth, whip, fury TWICE; i sometimes fail blitz at dharok :o
June 22, 200719 yr I wear one just in case, but I doubt I ever needed it.. yet As Im writing this a skeleton got me to 50/83 hp.. Yes I am barrowing rofl.. Need to pay attention or I might acutally need the ring. 99 Crafting acheived 31/01/0899 Strength acheived 17/12/07
June 22, 200719 yr Author it has saved me + full guth, whip, fury TWICE; i sometimes fail blitz at dharok :o Yea, thats why I don't blitz DH no pray, I could do it, but if I fail, and then lag, I'm dead. @Travis: I also feel very, very, very safe\confident at barrows, but what happens if you get dced?

June 22, 200719 yr ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS! Prayer issues, safe spot problems, big hits, afkness, stupidity, prayer running out, I could go on forever. Too many close calls. I did about 40 runs in a week once, and had a bakers dozen close calls :XD: ^^ClicK^^"I backed my car into a cop car the other dayWell he just drove off sometimes life's ok...Alright already we'll all float onAlright don't worry we'll all float on" - Isaac BrockDays Hunting:4 - Kingly Imps Caught:2Money Earned: 4.5-5m

June 22, 200719 yr Yes, it has saved me more than once. Once I put strength prayer instead of melee and went afk on dhaork. Came back to see my player get hit a 49 and tele. :-w Quit RS, combat 104, total 1651
June 22, 200719 yr I do, cus i dont have a warrior or zeaker ring to use. Plus, ROW dont work so no need for them. 99 Pics - Range, Defence, HP, Attack, Magic, Strength, Cooking
June 22, 200719 yr I always use a Seers ring. Don't feel like taking the rol. The chances of dieing at barrows are really low. And even if you die the chance that a rol would have safed you is small. So I prefer the magic bonus my seers ring gives.

June 22, 200719 yr I used to use Ring of Charos (don't ask why, I find I get better drops with that than with ROW :-$ ) but since I almost died with Guth, Verac, fury, whip, and other things, when Ahrim wasn't being nice to me and got me down to 1hp -.-.
