Karil vs. Black D hide

[Sid Skatekid]

Ok I'm currently 99 ranged and I was rune pure, but with the recent changes to wild and stuff I'm getting 70 def (currently 3k exp from 69), But my question is, since i like hunting the mith drag and other monsters,

 

 

 

Should i stick with black dhide since it's cheap and you don't have to repair it, or should i get karils, because it has a higher mage def bonus?

 

 

 

thanks already :-k

I remember one time on RSOF some guy analyzed and fully compared that two sets, then he found then they have same ranged attack bonuses, just Karil's have highter defence bonuses thats all..

Yeah I checked also, the dhide even has a better def bonus for melee but not for mage and range

You say you like hunting mith drags, in that case it's good to keep a set of both karil and d hide. Generally, people melee protect or range protect against mith drags which leaves you vulnerable to mage attacks. When it comes to mith drags you want every def bonus you can get (especially seeing as you have a low defence for hunting high level monsters) so it's good to use there. But for pretty much everywhere else you should use black d hide due to similar stats.
