zamorak brews can be usefull

Well, a lot people think zamorak brews are a waste unless u are dharoking and need to lower ur hp. I personally found that these potions arent as usefull as theyr reputation makes them out to be.

 

 

 

The potion

 

Zamorak brews give 25% attack boost and 15% strength boost, they also lower defence and hit points by 10%.

 

The attack boost exceeds the super attack potion and thats where the story revolves about

 

 

 

The zamorak brew setup

 

This consists of 4 potions: 1 zamorak brew, 2 restore mixes and 1 super defence potion.

 

ul drink in the following order: zamorak brew -> restore mix -> super def pot.

 

 

 

The costs

 

A zamorak inventory doesnt costs very much (wich i find a very importnant point). If u buy all pots its 1,4k for 4 dose pots.

 

 

 

650 for a zamorak brew

 

50 for a restore potion

 

350 for a super defence potion

 

divided by 3 and multiplied by 4 these numbers together come on 1,4k.

 

 

 

if u buy caviar for ur mixes too u pay 1k-1,2k extra unless u fish these, il get back to this later.

 

 

 

if u use super sets with super strength potions u pay more money for 3 doses, almost the same for when u even buy caviar. I use normal strength pots for 600 gp, wich is the same strength boost as the zamorak brew.

 

 

 

Getting caviar

 

caviar costs 500-600 gp each and isnt cheap as u need 2 of them for a whole zamorak brew.

 

u can decided to fish these if u are 70 fishing. cutting open leaping sturgeons gets u caviar.

 

If u fish these in large amounts u might need some time for this at lower fishing levels.

 

 

 

conclusion

 

For people that do want to save some money and desire to hit more often the zamorak potion is perfect. u still get bonusses everywhere, only do u lay the accent more on attack isntead of strength and in my case i boost attack as i use normal strength pots and dont have any strength boost differences.

 

Because mixed potions hold up to 2 doses u will use 1 more inventory space than with a normal super set and the mix wont heal the full damage (3-4 hp will stay left on hp lvs in the 80s+). This should not pose any problems at monsters where u use guthans, prayer, summoning familiars that can heal or if the mosnters weak anyway.

 

 

 

 

 

Hope some of u might find this setup helpfull.

 

 

 

this is my first mini guide and i stink at loading up pictures on a side note.

 

also would like to know what u guys think of this.

I personally use zamorak brews whenever IM in prayer combat.

 

 

 

 

 

Same, they also restore a small amount of prayer, so the damage and defense loss means nothing while praying. I typically use them at aberrants and black demons.

Also when you are fighting a monster that uses only 1 combat style, but you MUST pray against it, it's good to use Zammy Brews. Ex. Aberrant Spectres or Monkey Guards. Since you are praying the hp makes no difference, neither would the def.

Very good and accurate points, Zammy brews seem very ideal for tough monster training and you taught me some useful stuff :] . Still I perfer guthans for healing (Forgot if you mentioned anything about this) as its "infinite food" and more pots can be carried.

Your numbers for the potions aren't too accurate though.

 

 

 

One of my friends went around and found people of almost every level in these stats and gave them different potions to see what the stat effect was, and I helped him calculate the actual formulas for these potion effects. It's like X% + Y or something. I don't remember the exact formula for Zamorak Brew, sorry.
