P4duke Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 ye and the bolts are the same as mithril (maybe worse) ...but they hit WAY FASTER (but you can't get em' back) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huta Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 Karil's crossbow is an improved mage short bow. Same speed, better damage, higher cost. It's nice but not game breaking. The mage set's effect has always sucked as well. The staff already forced you to lose a shield, as well as completely prohibiting god spells (so useless to modern magic) and no autocast for ancients. The strength drain is nice, but the cost in everything else has always been too high, so it never got used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see Karil top and body out a lot, it's like required Castle Wars gear. I've had my set for ages and I don't plan on selling it anytime soon.

Huta Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Neither do I. My ranged is my only non-max combat skill and even with a measly 79 range I'll beat any mage in a 1v1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warrior5024 Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 Using obstacles and ice, you can effectively freeze any ranger so that you can attack them, but they cannot attack you. If you need proof, PM me, I'll fight you in Clan Wars, or, better yet, secluded place in PvP worlds (I can't stand PJ'ers) So, Lone Star, now you see that evil will always triumph because good is dumb.

howbadisbad Posted December 10, 2008 Author Share Posted December 10, 2008 except range can fire over obsticals too... :wall: and if you turn on longrange i know mage cant hit you from further than that \ Hypocrite.

cat666 Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 Karil's skirt/body is great for slayer. It's basically cheap mage defense making loads of tasks easier, including Waterfiends, Bloodveld, Infernal Mages, Abby Spectres, Scrabites and Mithril Dragons. The coif and set effect is junk yes, and the bow is only semi-usful with the introduction of crossbows. Like someone said the only decent part of the set effect was to trap noobs in the Wildy agilty course for an easy kill. However nowadays most Wildy agility trainers use a non-PvP world and all they ever carried back in the day was an inven full of cakes. Trust the Gene Genie!

If you want proof, PM me ingame. If not, then stop saying ignorant things that just aren't true about Magicians. So, Lone Star, now you see that evil will always triumph because good is dumb.

fenrir321 Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 You could say that Karil's is a tanking set of armor with high damage output. It's as fast as a msb for pete's sake, it SHOULD be less accurate. The armor has good magic defense, but I think it sacrifices melee defense for that, though I'm not sure. It's good armor, but when compared to the degree of other barrows armor, it pales in comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generally, 130>n<130 If you used arrows, you could easily kill them if you were about the same level.

yuriqiu Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 Top + Bottom = Great for pking and high risk environments. Xbow, good for CW if you feel like spending the cash (basically a C bow 8/10 that hits at around MSB speed). Coif..... coif..... *toss in garbage can* :roll: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westwooddog Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 the karil top is useful because it provides great mage def without being to expensive. Also it is used for godwars. For the bow its gd only for fight caves and maybe pking. The skirt and coif are useless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jakie201 Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 I like Karils X bow, it is very fast and when you get over 90+ range and pot up, it is amazingly accurate. And what are you guys talking about dragon crossbows?! The rune ones are already dishing out 50's... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaaps1 Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 they should really add more melee and rang def to karils :wall: That I agree with. If you look at dragon and, say, torags armor the difference is huge. If you look at black dragonhide and karils, the only difference and mage defense (and melee defense, which karils has less of). ~It's Super Effective!
