Avansie Tanking Setup, need advice for top

[uninamer4]

well i started killing avansies the other day, and i feel comfortable enough with them now to tank them, i started getting a setup together but am not sure what to use for a top,

 

 

Torag helm and legs

 

rune c bow, broad bolts (mith in pic)

 

sara vambs

 

zammy book (empty)

 

dragon boots

 

wealth

 

ava device

 

and armydal pendant

 

 

 

In the pic im wearing a sara top, should i just wear black d hide top?

 

 

 

 

 

edit: also should i use the bone to peaches tabs?

[pureprayer]

Crystal shield and zammy dhide.

 

 

 

B2p is good yes.

 

 

 

And snake boots. Dragon has a negative range attack.

[llamster]

Yes, yes. Use snakeskin boots, as dragon doesn't give any range defense. Use addy bolts and a defensive shield like granite. Also bring p pots for 10% range.

[Lord Diddy]

I have no idea how you could range in that, practically no range bonus at all. Definitely change the top for black dragonhide (or blessed top and switch out zammy book for a granite\obby sheild). By the way depending where you kill them you probably won't need the saradomin protection so you can use highest rfd gloves.

 

 

 

Also bones to peaches are probably the best way of healing.

i cant afford the zammy d hide yet so wats my best bet?

 

 

 

 

 

edit: and should i use a prayer pot or a range pot?

Your current setup with black d'hide top and Verac's skirt instead or Torag's (for prayer bonus).

 

 

 

Use both.

[uninamer4]

how many prayer and range pots should i bring per trip?

 

 

 

so far this is my inventory,

 

 

 

 

and my setup

 

[mister_moocky]

They drop more natues then you use, just bring 10. Bring 1k fires or a fire staff. The teletab isn't needed, you have home tele, and they drop airs as well as laws and you're bringing fires so you could also teleport to Varrock.

[llamster]

Bring like two range pots and seven or eight prayer potions. That'll only last around 80-90 minutes so don't expect long trips while potting/praying the whole time.

[uninamer4]

any idea how many kills 2 range and 7-8 prayer pots would get me?

[uninamer4]

so final inventory?

 

[MaffeDennis]

If your gonna tank em you shouldn't bring any pray pots because you won't need them.

[JoeDaStudd]

Any chance you can post a budget and your stats?

 

 

 

If you've got some money left there are a few better things you can do. I would personally switch the legs and shield for zammy legs and granite shield. As you get almost the same range defense, but with 8 more range attack bonus.

[uninamer4]

stats;

 

 

I got about 900k left that could go toward better gear.

 

 

 

thanks,

I suggest you not to use ring of wealth as it reduces the amount of bars you'll get significantly.

[uninamer4]

really? isnt it supposed to boost that?

[Cptbaker08]

Addy Bars aren't a rare drop, so when wearing the RoW you'd get more rune daggers and limbs then you would bars. And sicne you're hear for the bars and not daggers/limbs you shouldnt wear a RoW.

[uninamer4]

ah wow never thought of it like that.. lol wondered why i wasnt getting many bars, wat ring should i wear?

Archer ring > nothing (could use lumby diary ring for free low alchemy or something, but I never use it.)
