August 28, 200718 yr Bandos Armor A lot of people have been posting about the godsword and the dragon boots, and trying to figure out the max hit and stuff, but you are missing out on a 3rd age equipment that boosts strength, as well as beating the fighter torso in EVERY STAT, and the only legs in the game that give strength bonuses. Personally, These seem like a nice reward from the creatures, and although Im not sure what drops them, they might even increase the RS max up at least 1 damage point. And get this, Bandos boots are higher in every defense stat compared to dragon boots! (although lacking the strength bonus, but adding a pray bonus) Just wanted to share this, as not many people seem to care about this armor, and only about the drag boots + godsword. I will be hunting for this for awhile. Post youir thoughts. 99 Fletching 99 Attack 99 Constitution 99 Cooking 99 StrengthGamertag: H8tebringer
August 28, 200718 yr Yeah the new armor is what I want to get my hands on. "We will certainly not be gaining money or members with this update. Instead, we are doing this for the good of the game, which is as dear to our hearts as it is to you."- JAGEX, December 13, 2007
August 28, 200718 yr Don't forget about the Armadyl range armor which is better than 3rd age range :shock:
August 28, 200718 yr Is any of this tradeable? ~It's Super Effective! (The Zaaps Blog)~My YouTube Channel, where you get to watch me go around and make a fool out of myself and all comp capersGuides:~Yeah I wrote them once~Suggestions:~Yeah I made those once~
August 28, 200718 yr If any of this is tradeable, then Fighter Torso is now wasted efforts (except for Player Killing) People will simply buy the Strength Bonus instead of working with frustrating people in Barbarian Assault. 99 Hits, Attack, Strength, Defence, Mage, Summoning, Slayer, Ranged, 96/99 Prayer
August 28, 200718 yr Yeah, Torso just got OWNED. If I ever get a Bandos Plate, I might actually use my torso to go PKing.

August 28, 200718 yr It's weaker than Barrows, so I don't care. Ah, this reminds me about the noob on the Runescape forums who was upset with the quest "Cold War" because apparently his grandparents died in the war. :wall:
August 28, 200718 yr I'll be buying the pl8 and legs once they're at a stable price providing they're tradeable. I'll stick to rune boots, Dragon boots look like novelty slippers and i would like a str bonus.

August 28, 200718 yr yeah i'm curious to know what drops bandos and armadyll armors.. the armadyll chest kinda reminds me of the elves armor in LOTR. I'd def like to get my hands on the either set RSN: drgnslyer15 15 skills 90+ - 10 skills 99 - 200m+ total exp

I'd def like to get my hands on the either set i like how mages got screwed on the armor situation. lol i like the melee gear. no doubt i want some of that. but the ranger gear... would make me think twice about wearing my void stuff. i do like its 10% bonus.
August 28, 200718 yr ive been told that the henchmen and the bosses drop the armors. either way, i think i will wait until i can go in with a team of my own, rather than going down with 40 other people, and not being able to split the drop.

August 28, 200718 yr bandos is just under 3a melee with a str bonus new range armour is better than karils without the degrading this update owns also, sara sword is basically a str training whip (slower though :\) Yayyyyyy...

August 28, 200718 yr The range defence on that armour is the best ingame, +1 better than their barrows counterparts. Oh, and it boosts strength and doesn't degrade. 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.
August 29, 200718 yr The range defence on that armour is the best ingame, +1 better than their barrows counterparts. Oh, and it boosts strength and doesn't degrade. Kinda makes you wonder why it's not level 75-80+ armour instead. :-k No longer playing Runescape, I caught the WoW bug.

Life is a joke. Yeah, I don't get it either.
