Barrows Armor

[DaOnLyJoSh]

I just got my first sets of Barrows Armor, and I am wondering a few things, since i've been told a bunch of different stories.

 

 

 

1) How does barrows armor degrade? I understand it degrades by increments of 25, but what makes it degrade? I've been told that its time, and also been told that it takes 2500 hits before it breaks.

 

 

 

2) When you die with barrows items on or in your inventory, but they are not on the "items you keep" list, since its not trade-able after being used, what happens? I've heard that you keep it, but it just breaks, which didn't seem like a likely story.

 

 

 

Thanks guys! =)

The way Barrows Armour works is on time. After 15 hours IN COMBAT, your armour will degrade fully. In combat means fighting, so it won't degrade by just walking around. You will find it will last a fair while before it degrades fully. The amount of hits you take has nothing to do with it.

 

 

 

I can't really help with the second question, as I never died with Barrows armour on.

I don't think you understand how happy that makes me...

 

 

 

Thanks, Mamong! :D

2: It appears on the ground, but broken and you can pick it up but you have to fully repair it to use it.

So it is completely possible for other people to pick it up?

 

 

 

That's too bad.. =(
