You could use climbing boots for the strength bonus, but I don't know for the rest.

So which is better: combat bracelet or mithril gloves, and I'd also like to know how to get climbing boots (tradable? price?)

 

 

 

Thanks very much!

Replace with chainmail, doesn't disadvantage you from ranging if you need to.

They both have about the same stats, But mith gloves are cheaper. Also, better to pk in unless you want to lose a 60k+ cb braces.

Oh, and for the shield slot, rune defender owns unholy book?

Why the question mark? You could take a quick look at the items database and discover that the rune def is a lot better as far as melee stats go.

perfect grammar is one thing, typing like a drugged monkey and enjoying it is another

AMEN!

Don't I need 40 defence for a rune defender? If so, what should I put in my shield slot?

 

 

 

Thanks

Actually you need 130 combined attack and strength, or 99 in either skill, to be able to get a rune defender. But you also need 40 defence for it as well.

 

Also this has better defense then iron plate, and also requires 1 def.

Mith gloves > combat brace. Altough at 1 defence you can now wear addy gloves so thsoe are even better.

 

everyone seems to be going with obby cape, but a skill cape (t) or firecape would be better.

 

and yea bear head for helm.

 

a berserker i im guessing you can also do at 1 def

 

edit: oh and yes, rune defender > unholy book, but it requires 40 def :P

 

book > iron defender.

You can get adamant gloves now...
