Well this morning i finally got my Fighter Torso. Well i probably wont buy any other armour because it is one of the best pieces of armour there is, and its free. I have Guthans in my bank which i use to heal myself, i have ann the basic amulets and rings, whip and d boots, d legs and now i find myself left with 4.7mil. I dont have decent ranged gear, but i dont really Range much these days. What should i do wiht the 4.7mil i have left in my bank?

The fighter torso is rubbish. Seriously you have wasted your time getting it.

 

 

 

Bandos is out of your price range (and too expensive for it's stats anyway) but you have Guthans which is the pinnacle of armour. For a start it's stats are not too different from the best defensive armour there is (Torags/Dharoks combi). Secondly, if you are slaying then it is more efficient to swap in only the helm/spear rather than 3 or 4 Guthans pieces to heal. You then have the added bonus of 2 extra inventory spaces. Even 2 uncut emeralds pay for the minimal usage of the helm/spear.

 

 

 

Things you should have:

 

 

 

Black Mask/Slayer Helm - 350k

 

Fury - 3.1mil

 

Dragon Boots - 250k

 

Whip - 1.5mil

 

Rune Defender - Free

 

Barrows Gloves - Can't remember price, 200k I think but you need a lot of quests.

 

Warrior Ring - 300k (for training with whip/other slash weapons)

 

Ring of Wealth - 40k (for all other tasks)

 

Obby Cape - Dunno price, will be cheap.

 

 

 

Things which would be nice, but not essential:

 

 

 

Berserker Ring - 3mil. Adds to strength but only minimally, so minimally infact it doesn't always have an effect.

 

Fire Cape - Freeish - Best cape in the game.

 

99 Cape/Trimmed Cape Freeish - Pretty much the same (trimmed has +2 prayer) but 2nd best capes in game.

 

Cannon - 600k +balls - Expensive but fast slayer XP on a few tasks.

You've got great combat stats, it seems a shame that your summoning is so low for your level. I suggest spending the money on raising it to at least 68 for a Bunyip.

Well i was thinking of using the money to get my Summoning level up, 69 would be a big help when i intend on going to Kree.

Well Figheter Torso is pretty much the same as Bandos Chestplate, i dont do much slaying so i wont really bother with a plack mask and besides i only have about 6tasks to go till i can get a slayer helm.

 

 

 

As for all the other things you mentioned, i pretty much have all of them except for the Fire Cape and Barrows gloves(which i dont intend on getting any time soon)

As an fyi, Black Mask is a LOT more than 350k now, its up at 600-650k.

 

Fury is about 2.7m

 

Barrows Gloves are 100k, but require completion of RFD to get, but give a nice strength boost (+12)

You have to have a black mask to put together the slayer helm, so you'd be better off getting one now to make those 6 tasks go faster, unless of course you don't plan on slaying at all.

Substitute Bandos Plate with Addy Chain...

 

 

 

It has pretty much been proven that a Fighter Torso is the equivalent to an addy chain (might of been plate but I am 99% sure it was the chain).. You are better off using Proselyte (or initiate if you don't have Pros) and praying +10% str. You will get better results that way than you would with a Torso.

 

 

 

On another note, to get a slayer helm you will need a black mask in the first place as it is the main "ingredient" to create a slayer helm. And even if you only were doing 10 slayer tasks for the rest of your RS career, nothing compares to the black mask on slayer task's and the resell-ability of the black mask is such that you wouldn't lose any money when you finished your 10 tasks.

 

 

 

In short, buy a black mask for slayer.

Apparently, my signature was to big.

If you either get Compfreak to come in here, or go search a forum talking about the Torso, and he will tell you how worthless Torso is compared to other, better, chest pieces to use instead.

 

 

 

Imo, id rather, and in fact i am, use Torags Body and repair it when it gets to 25%. When i have the cash ill most likely get full bandos.

I've had the cash, and still have the cash for full bandos, but i love my torags to death. The highest defense in the game, and it is 10m cheaper then a bandos plate. Atm, bandos is a waste of cash, that will probably be 1m in a year or two.

 

If you either get Compfreak to come in here, or go search a forum talking about the Torso, and he will tell you how worthless Torso is compared to other, better, chest pieces to use instead.

There, much easier to understand now. I won't have enough cash for full bandos for probably a couple months as i don't make money all that quick, so the longer i wait the better for me cuz the cheaper it might be.

Keep your torso as a decorative item and wear your Guthan's paltebody. Sell your dragon platelegs and use Guthan's chainskirt, or buy Dharok's platelegs for the extra 10 def and swap when neccisary. The best range gear is void which isn't buyable. If you want to buy gear buy a fury, warriors ring, archers ring, and then either some ahrims and other mage gear (if you never use magein combat) or spend the remainder it on your favorite skills.

The only noticeable difference in BCP and torso is the range defense.

 

 

 

Let's see.. spend 13mil on a chestplate for around +20 def in all stats except range or spend 4 hours for torso..

 

 

 

Yeah I will stick to torso, thanks.

You can't sell the torso and get those 4 hours back though.

You do realize that, to make a slayer helmet, you'll need a black mask anyway...?

 

Slayer helmet is made by combining all the slayer headgear into one, that includes the black mask.
