Void Range Armor, worth it?

[x_zerker_x]

So i have decided to get 99 range and become a tank.

 

I have found some methods of getting their and now im looking for gear to use to get their usually i would stick with blk d hide and the basics for getting it but i want to get 99 fast as possible so people say Void is the way to go, what do u guys think about void, is it worth getting?

[rhupajiva]

ok here are my thoughts.

 

 

 

void is great if you are planning on using chinchompas for getting 99 range. it increases the xp rate per hour. for every day slaying, id stick with black dhides. they give more consistent hits and makes the assignment go much faster.

I mathematically proved it in a thread over in H&A, it's worth getting on any monster with fairly low defence like Avansies\all training monsters. It's also helpful after 99, so I would recommend getting it.

ok thanks i am doing pc now got 31 points only 819 more to go -.-

[muggiwhplar]

yes it's worth it in a variety of situations.. I got it right after I got 99 range

[Promise]

In most situations, you'll be happy you got it. Just get it, combined with black knives, fire giants become very good experience. Don't buy the black knives though, just collect when you're getting defenders.

I got my full void back in a day, it isn't bad :P

[x_bow80]

I still need to get my set. I've just been super lazy and haven't gotten it.

[Italian5kamikaze]

Don't think I've ever used black dhide over it when I was ranging lol.

Would you actually save time going to 99 from 70-90 though? Considering it does take pretty long to get it :?

 

 

 

I've been debating this for awhile, since 99 range is what I'm getting after my next 99, I suppose I may aswell look into it :P

itll take what 10 hrs to get

 

 

 

thatll cost you 600-700kexp if you just trained it

 

 

 

id say its worth it just to lazy to get it

i'd say get one. its one of the best gears to hunt for metals and the max hit with ruby bolts is well worth it.

[Dexek]

It is worthy during any period that you are safespotting your target. When you're not safespotting, well, then you'll just tank up in dragonhide and some mixed armour. My suggestion is to get it anyways, as you will find various uses for it. Add the free void armour to some cheap broad bolts and you can deal some nice damage on a small budget. I never got my void until about 15M range xp, but it would have been more useful to have had earlier on.

Actually, metal dragons is one of the exceptions where void is worse than armadyl.

[Kenneh]

I done the crazy thing, PC'd void after i was 99 range #-o and well, it's sat in my house ever since. I have every helm, the top bottom and gloves, and ofc the mace.

 

I've never tried it so i have no idea how good it is, i just think range bonus is more effective than a +15% or w/e , but by the looks of this thread i'm one of the few :P

 

 

 

Enjoy your void + GL on 99 range :thumbup:

This isn't an opinion issue, this is a simple issue of you being wrong. Void has better damage per second than Armadyl. Period.

Actually, Void's defense is surprisingly adequate. I do slayer in it and tank what I need to, and it really isn't much of an issue. For the harder things I add a DFS, and my bunyip and SGS are always plenty to keep my hp up. I don't think dragonhide would do too much better at tanking, really.

Void armour really gives you a nice bonus... the higher more accurate hits are well worth it, and you wont even waste the time it takes to get it... remember you can range while doing pc too :)

+ for the ruby bolts spec void doesn't work!

 

 

 

Void is great combined with diamond bolts on the other hand! - Since the diamond bolts make up for the loss of accuracy, and void just makes the hits higher!

 

 

 

I found that void works actually better than black dragonhide on iron (and on par with it at steels) - however armadyl might be just a bit better than void there!

[kudos6969]

its very nice on anything with low defense, make sure your always potted and pray flashing 5-10% range pray then its just win

[3hitm4g3u]

Definately worth it if you have a high range level.

[gongusan]

i have same goal as you; becoming a tank, and yes void range is VERY worth it.

[Romy]

I this this b elongs to help and advice.

 

 

 

Anyway, the point of void is to have better attacking abilities (in both Magic, Ranged and Melee), while at the same time having low defence bonus, which means:

 

 

 

If you're training on a monster without a safesport/ that hits high, then the defence bonus is more important, but if you're planning on fighting monsters using safespots, or monsters with low accuracy, then void will increase exp/hour, and is a good idea to have.

 

 

 

 

 

Even if eventually you decide that the defence bonus is more important, you should still get void, as it's useful.

[n00bfiterpk6]

it definately is worth getting,

 

 

 

the bonus's are very helpfull for most things you might range, and as said earlier it is still usefull after 99 range

I suppose I based my advice on my defence level in that aspect. :

No.
