Xeones Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 I'm going to make my main a Mage Staker. I want to win lots of $$$ by staking. Here are the stats I am aiming for: 70/75 Attack 71/80 Strength 70/75 Defense 53/82 Magic (eh...) 50/70 Ranged 52/52+ Prayer 70/80+ Hitpoints Equipment: Ahrim's Hood Ahrim's Robe Top Ahrim's Robe Bottom Amulet of Fury Infinity Boots Barrows Gloves Master Wand Mages Book God Cape I will be using Ice Blitz and Blood Blitz. I need some advice, though... 1) What spells do I use and when? Ice Blitz all the time, then some random Blood Blitzes to regain health or what? 2) Will 82 Magic be enough to win? Or is 94 Magic absolutely necessary? 3) Help on the equipment/stats would be nice. 4) Any advice on tactics/rules would be greatly appreciated.

I'm getting Ahrim's. dont use ice spells!!!!!!!! use shadow barrage and blood barrage if you are going to use mage. get... 94 magic 70 range 70 defence 52 prayer Uhh, are you serious? The whole point of Ancient Magicks is to freeze your opponent so you can maneuver (sp?) the obstacles while your opponent stays frozen and you Blood Blitz them. Also, 70 to 75 Defense won't make a difference. Neither will 52 to 60 Prayer. Is it necessary to have 94 Magic? Because 82 will already cost me 10m using Fire Bolts w/ Chaos Gauntlets. 94 will cost me upwards of 40m. Can't I stay with Blitzes, not Barrages???

Xeones Posted September 3, 2007 Author Share Posted September 3, 2007 blitzez do pretty much the same damage as barrages..and a lot cheaper (as u pointed out). id stick with blitz..btw, dont listen to sirgudi he's totally wrong. ice is the way to go. some advice. if staking high amounts (for me 150k+ with my range staker) i always use the highscores to look up my opponent because i dont challenge other pures =) if u plan on winning every match no questions asked dont stake pures. only stake mains that are using melee. if u dont like my adice dont complain just ignore it. MrMeGaKiRbY First post that helped. Thanks a lot. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owned_Nex Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Dunno why so high melee and range stats, but anyways, the trick is to Shadow barrage first hit, then BLOOD BARRAGE the rest. NEVER ice since blood hits 2 damage less then ice barrage, and heals. Shadow is to lower accuracy. IF your still not getting hit, you CAN throw in a smoke barrage. ANwyays, if ur sticking to 82 magic, then burst. Be warned though, as pures WILL be staking armour off, and WILL be barraging.... Dungeoneering isn't a skill. I'm faster than bots at Sorceress Garden. PM me if you want to chat. My PM is always off. My keyboard is on fire. Want some? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deathdefire Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 The most cost effective way for mage training is high alching (preferably mage longs, but yew longs work too). For 65xp, you spend around 65gp for a mage longbow and 130gp for a yew longbow, which is much better than fire bolts. I suggest getting ice barrage for freezing...but I'm not much of a staker so I can't really help you there. I would ice barrage and run away then blood barrage to regain any lost health and repeat.

That's about 40 million gp. THAT is a LOT. I have a good idea. I will get 82 Magic for now. With my winnings, I will be able to afford 94 Magic. Does that sound good?

Xeones Posted September 5, 2007 Author Share Posted September 5, 2007 Fire bolt is too expensive, and low EXP, high alch, or Stun wuth a mud staff. But just remember... Shadow,Smoke, THEN BLOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No more of your posts, please. They are idiotic at the least. :wall: Didn't you ever notice, in your long and experienced RuneScape career, that Hitpoints is the stats that wins duels? :?: A staker must, MUST, have high Hitpoints. I do not believe I will achieve that by High Alching bows. #-o Using Ice spells is necessary in dueling. It is used mainly to freeze them in place, and because it hits so high. Any video you see of great stakers such as Woot3r 2005 or others, will only use Ice and Blood Spells. Hmm, I wonder what that means? :-w I hope you have learned your mistakes from this post. :shame: Ice > Blood > Blood > Ice when he starts moving > Blood > Blood, etc. according to Mrmegakirby, who I believe is correct. :mrgreen: The only thing I'm still not sure about is whether to include the Smoke types of spells, which poisons. Do duels last long enough for the poison to kick in? Or should I instead Ice and Blood only? :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agshlee Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 Since it's you asking for advice, don't start acting cocky towards the ones that give it.

With obs, you at least have to have a little bit of skill (not much I guess, but still :P) 99/99 Mage - Achieved 23/07/200799/99 Ranged - Achieved 20/12/200793/99 Defence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kraizhir Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 well not many people[that i know of] mage stake with armour on. most just use no armour, sometimes ammy, but sometimes not and leaves open hand for masterwand. Listen to the guy that said use shadow and blood spells, ice although effective, usually most stake no movement so that they cannot be ranged with mage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xeones Posted September 8, 2007 Author Share Posted September 8, 2007 Wow. Seems like certain people on this forum are a bit unintelligent. Forget it, no more replies please, I'll just ask my mage staker friends who actually *know* stuff. :shock: Thanks for... umm... trying to help, though.
