No, granite gives better defence on everything except magic, but range has the highest difference. Check here for all stats: http://www.tip.it/runescape/index.php?i ... it=Compare

Granite platebody is only slightly better than rune. It's not really worth paying the extra 50k or so, in my opinion. Plus it weighs a lot more.

Interesting, I didn't know this... Would a granite plate be worth it? Or should we stick to our faithful rune platebody?

If you are just able to use granite and have the extra cash to spend most certainly get granite it is indeed a better replacement then rune platebody. Though if you are higher a level with more defense then the benefits are neglible and it's really more for status symbol and for looks.

 

 

 

Most armor is only neglibly better then the previous, save for barrows where you can really notice a difference in battle. It's all really dependent on your defense level though as a defense level 40 in full rune will notice more benefits then a defense level 70 in full rune compared to dragon.

 

 

 

Personally if i had the extra cash which isn't too hard, I would choose granite body over rune anyday.

Go buy some granite legs as well and try running :wink: Best cheap combo would be that body with dragon legs but then you end up looking like a linebacker.

 

 

 

And I don't see a football in Runescape.

I would use it as a secondary for when you don't want to waste barrows degrading. I sometimes see people with dragon legs and granite platebodies that mysteriously turn into Dharok....

Right. I used my Granite Plate as a bridge between the Rune Plate and a Dharoks Plate.

torso + trimed\god skirt or just rune legs

 

 

 

best u'll ever get and it doesn't make u look like a linebacker

Right...

Well best you will ever get is a tall statement considering I'm sure I would (with all stats being equal that is and all other equipment) kill someone in that with full torags but indeed, that is a lot better looking and honestly one of the better setups for day to day, so... +1

The one good thing about the granite body is that it doesn't interfiere(sp?) with your ava's accumalator!
