Recommended Posts

OK, ever since I became a member I have had mystic armour and black d hide... And I think it's time for an upgrade. So, can you kind people suggest mage or range armour more powerfull then the ones I have, and tell me the stat differences, and prices?

 

 

 

Thanks.

Infinity or Ahrims. Not anything better for range besides Armadyl.

REad instructions pl0x.

 

 

 

And, If the armour costs more than guthans - forget it.

 

 

 

About the barrows, I'm not tottaly opposed to it, but, how much will it cost to reacharge it at level 70 smithing?

Forget upgrading range, Karils has same attack bonuses as d'hide, but jsut has more magic defense. Armadyl costs way more than Guthans, forget it. It will be 70% cheaper than Bob charges you.

How does lunar compare to mystic? And, about ranging, is there a better weapon than the mage short, and rune c'bow, that doesn't cost too much for ammo, or recharge costs. My c bow charge is still 900k.

By better if you mean more value for money/exp then Dorgeshuun xbow is great!

I'll break it down to the best of my knowledge for you. Hope this is helpful.

 

 

 

Range

 

Black dragon hide is your best bet. Ranger helm and snakeskin boots are the best for their price. Paying 6.5m for a ranger set that gives about +3 more range bonus is obserd.

 

 

 

If you want to go monster killing, however, using karils is the best for the additional defence bonus.

 

 

 

That's about it for range. Armadyl is rediculously priced and pretty much only for show.. Not for use. I mean noone that's not tryin to show their butt would wear full armadyl somewhere they have a chance to die and lose it.. Not worth it.

 

 

 

Mage

 

I would say get ahrims.. 1 the mage att + defence bonus' are better than mystic.

 

 

 

Plus it looks a hell of a lot better than mystic.

 

 

 

Its that simple for mage.

 

----------

 

 

 

As for prices.

 

 

 

Armadyl is in the range of 40-50m for full... yea rediculous.

 

 

 

Ahrims is about 1.5m for full no staff. (That was about a month and a half ago though) it may have gone up like a lot of the other barrows armors.. But its still not bad and the repair prices are dirt cheap at 70 smithing

Apparently, my signature was to big.

range: karils ( i use it)

 

 

 

 

 

Mage: Mmm.. I'd say ahrims looks better and it's also good on dragons

 

 

 

My pure (wildy is dead) have just got 20 def, when i get member i will

 

mostlikely get 70 def for karils coif, black d'hide body and black d'hide

 

chaps (dont forget vambs and snake skin boots) cause the mage def are kinda nice and it looks nice.

 

 

 

How about getting Ahrim top, bottom, farseers helmet, glory/mage ammy, infinity boots and some kind of mystic gloves + god cape, thats a really good mage bonus gear.

for range unless u like how it looks or u actually need the extra mage def, blk d hide is as good as its going to get.

 

 

 

for mage ah a good choice and its pretty cheap. as for how much ull get off with smithing lvls its ur lvl divided 2. so lvl 70 would be 35% off. this is only for repairing the armor at a POH not at bobs.

Isnt it 50% when you boost yourself up to 100 with smithing cape? if so it's 35% cheaper at 70 smithing.

My bad. Still a significant discount though.

Wow, guys! You've been great! I now know that I will buy ahrims, and and am only debating between the farseer helm, and the hood - 14+ defense bonus, and no -15 atk bonuses, and no -3 range atk bonus... I'm not sure if that makes it worth that much more money.(how much, please)

 

Oh, and if you use ahrims hood while doing barrows, I will definitely change.

 

The only gloves to ever wear are the barrows gloves, I have no clue why someone said mystic gloves. About the boots, I'm not sure what to do. For 1+, I can upgrade mystic boots to wizard boots, costing 200k. For 2+, I can upgrade mystic boots to infinity boots - costing (I have no clue how much) Alot.

 

Buying a seers ring seems like it might be worth it. 4+ mage atk bonus is nice - and I'm not convinced the wealth I always wear now is good. How much does it cost? Are there any alternatives to it?

 

And, finnaly, (for mage) - what shield do I want to wear? I have all three god books, (completed) BUt I also have some mind shields, which should I wear?

 

Oups, Did I say I was done with mage? 1 think left. What staff whould I use? Just what staff!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Onto range, that is pretty straightforward.

 

I will keep my d hide, ranger helm, the accumulator, and snakeskin boots.

 

Just one thing here - do I want to get an archers ring? 4+ is rather nnice, but yet again, is sacrificing the wealth worth it? And how much does the archers ring cost?

 

 

 

Thanks...

Use a Zamorak book for ranging and mage, +8 to all attack. Infinity boots will run you 700-800k. Use a god, ancient or ahrims staff. Ahrims hood'll run you 250-300k. Archer ring is 1.2-1.4M. Seer's ring is 350-400k. A lunar ring is half as good, and its free!
