What would be the best barrows method for me

Featured Replies

I have recently spent a fair bit of cash to get 50 construction and doing desert treasure to get the canafis teleport and moved my house to yannile closest to bank i think?

 

 

 

I plan on using slayer dart but what would be the best gear to use... bear in mind i only have a limited supply of money after getting the main requirements as stated before...

 

 

 

I need to know what armour to use and things like that and what food how many potions... im hoping to make some profit as i have spent alot to set up what i have so far... ( i know that really isnt alot of money but im not a rich man )

 

 

 

thank you to all who reply in advance

Every way to mage Barrows- On Vid!(July 2006) (AoW)

 

 

 

Saru's Guide on how to do Barrows. Every way included!

 

 

 

I personally prefer the slayer dart method. The runes are often gotten back by the chest runes, and with your limited budget, using rune\barrows seems more efficient.

 

 

 

Kudos to you for getting the fastest way to get to barrows, remember to put an altar in your house (if you haven't already).

Yeah ive put an alter in :) thanks for the kudos

 

 

 

i fear barrows armour would be a bit out of price range at the moment but you say rune armour? wouldnt that put a negative mage attack bonus for slayer dart?

slayer dart isnt effected as much by mage bonus as the other spells. you can have a negative bonus and still hit 16s at level 70. why else would people use it

With -10 or -30 I still hit as good as someone in full ahrims with high mage offense. You can think of it like this, the barrow brother's magic defense sucks so much, you can successfully cast magic regardless of magic offense.

 

 

 

With rune armor you have more food, less money lost if you happen to die, and even though its not as efficient as barrows armor it works great.

Hmm thats great news to me it really is

 

 

 

Im thinking about this armour set up then

 

 

 

Farseerer helm

 

Glory

 

Obby cape

 

Rune Plate Body

 

Rune Legs

 

Any suggestion on boots (would rune work good enough?)

 

R.o.w (ive always been supastisicous about these working hehe)

 

Mystic gloves (havent done recipe for disaster)

R.o.w (ive always been supastisicous about these working hehe) doesnt have any effect year, you should definitely wear ring of life

 

Mystic gloves (havent done recipe for disaster) those are good

 

 

 

Il be using zammy prayer book also

 

 

 

you will have to pray on all the brothers though since you wont have a very high def for melee combat

Farseerer helm - if you plan to mage karil then keep this

 

Glory - good

 

Obby cape - not worth the risk, legends\god cape is better

 

Rune Plate Body- good

 

Rune Legs- good

 

Any suggestion on boots (would rune work good enough?) - rune is fine

 

R.o.w (ive always been supastisicous about these working hehe) - use ROL

 

Mystic gloves (havent done recipe for disaster) mystic gloves = horrible, even black RFD gloves are better. Should really think of getting the highest you can.

you have amazing stats to do barrows if you dont have like 750k to spend on torags legs and plate use rune legs and plate here is my opinion on your armor:

 

helm of neit/zerker helm

 

amulet of glory

 

gods cape(the one from the minigame at lvl 55wildy)

 

slayer staf

 

rune plate

 

rune kite

 

rune legs

 

combat bracelet

 

mystic boots/dragon boots

 

ring of life it saved me twice from losing like 2mil

 

with this armor you will have negative mage bonus but the barrows mage defence is something like -999 so with anything higher than this you will hit and the rune will provide enought defence so you dont have to drink pray pots unless karil is tunel

 

hope i helped

 

p.s read sarus guide there is a part that shows you how to use rune :-$

well maybe i should sell my whip to afford torags legs and plate for now?

 

i could easily make the money back to get whip with my skills and maybe even from barrow drops

sell that whip buy dragon scimitar or dragon long and bbuy torags legs and veracs skirt instead of torag legs its the same price but affords +4 prayer bonus and looks good.

 

remember only real men wear skirts :XD:

 

edit:Saru's Guide on how to do Barrows. Every way included!

 

most likely the best barrows guide in tif read it plz

If you plan to barrow often then this is a good idea (get verac's skirt instead of torag legs, same def but pray bonus. D skimmy works just as well as a whip, as you only use it to get Kc in tunnels.

 

 

 

The combat bracelet instead of a glove is a pretty good idea, nice bonuses and doesn't cost that much.

you didnt read the guide did you? :shame:

 

just read it or just view the pictures and you will know everything

Me:

 

 

 

Also i laugh at all barrows guides say "requirement +70 defence"

 

 

 

I do it at 45 defence on monk fish, prayer potless with about 5-10 monks left.

 

 

 

Even you could do it prayer potless.
