Would Zamorak Vambraces be a better replacement for Barrows gloves?

 

By switching to Zammy Vambs, you lose 1 range attack and 6 melee def, but gain 2 magic def.

It is also a Zammy item, allowing you to free up 1 more slot by not bringing Unholy Book.

 

And as Cantristenon stated, a solo section would be nice.

 

Both Zamorak Vams and Unholy book are good, as i said i personally go with the unholy book so i can use on the minions because of the +8 range and +5 prayer, in the end it will all add up.

But yeah zammy vams are good too, similar stats to barrows gloves and it will save you an invent space, upto you really :>

 

Also i'll work on a solo section later then, thanks for the feedback

 

I'd say it's better to use barrows gloves and unholy book especially for duo. Simply because they offer better meleedefence and Kilisa won't hit you as often.

Alright, I'd like you to give me advice on what to do...

 

I've got decent stats, 99 ranged, 85 defence, 73 summoning, but not much money. Currently my bank is valued at around 12m and the only pieces of a decent armadyl outfit I own are verac's helm, karil's top and karil's skirt. I'm currently barrowing for money so I can afford a fury. After that, would you recommend I try seeing if a team will accept me and gather money for the pro's armor via armadyl, or continue barrowing until I at least own one of the three big pieces (arma top/bottom/dfs)? Because finding a team that will accept someone below 90 def/without great gear is a bit difficult. The low defence will be fixed soon though :P

I like your guide.

Were going as a clan is Tal Shiar this weekend were hoping for about 8 people was wondering what you suggest for us to wear most of us are going to try with the second set up but i thought i should ask you too.

Very nice guide, wouldn't have thought to bring spikes to make more super ranged pots.

I'd love to do a long duo trip like that - I feel like my maxed stats and gear are going to waste haha. I never really got into team armadyl (so I never quite figured out what to bring), and in a lot of cases when I duo with people they last for less time than I do when I solo.

Are any of the new ancient curses recommended for Armadyl?

 

Mainly, deflect range + leech range + leech defense.

the boots should go rangers>jester>infinity...

jester are also +5 mage def and are 0 loss on death rather then 1m+

DK drops (solo/LS): 66 hatchets, 14 archer rings, 13 berserker rings, 17 warrior rings, 12 seerculls, 13 mud staves, 7 seers rings

QBD drops: 1 kite, 2 visages, 4 dragonbone kits, 3 effigies, lots of crossbow parts

CR vs. CLS threads always turn into discussions about penis size.
...
It's not called a Compensation Longsword for nothing.

I've sent a 12k combat mission to have Aiel assassinated (poor bastard isn't even Pincers-tier difficulty).

I'd still like my question about ancient curses answered.

 

Also, what is more important here, defense, or magic, and why?

Thanks this guide helped a fair bit :)

Kersei, leech defence is good for one person in team. Leech range is optional, depending on whether you want to waste your prayer pots. Leech mage is helpful but not really worth the prayer drain.

 

Main important thing is that there's no use to have more than 1 person on leeches. Other should use normal prayers for better boost prayers.

 

Deflect range of course does occasional 1-5 damage on kree, not sure if it makes up the loss of better boost prayers.

Thanks, this makes sense.

I'd like to add that actually Sap mage is good prayer to use instead of leeches. You don't really need that extra defence you get from leeching, right? :) Also soul split can be used to heal on minions, although results in duo/trio are a bit luck based.

Void, why not? To weak?

 

 

Do you think I can duo with my stats? They're leveled for this very purpose (lost mem before getting range higher). Am I ready, or do I need to spend more time in the cooker? (summon is 20k exp from bunny btw)

Hmm can you please post a pic of your duo inv? Cause I have to say 8 hours is very impressive, and I just want to know the amount of brews/ super prayers/ restores etc to take lol

 

Or was it exactly the same as the pic in the guide?

Which is better for soloing, the normal prayers or curses? And why?

Curses. Leech defence, leech range and leech magic are very helpful and beat prayer counterparts by far.

Any thoughts on using Full Slayer Helm for solo? +10 Mage def, +3 Range attack.

 

Another plus: You can wear Arma Top + Bottom without risking it (normally V helm protects over legs)
