April 13, 200917 yr hi guys, i am about to finish my long term goal of 99 range, once that's done i'm wanting to get 85 str then 99 def via slayer, by then i have: saradomin sword (not godsword), barrows gloves, neti helm, berserker ring, dragon boots, rune defender, all go books, quest/range cape now, i don't have loads of cash free atm unless i get lucky on my final range training but i can free up like 15m through ridding of my range gear, obv i need to buy a black mask and upgrade as soon as possible, but what about body and legs? it would be better if looked alright too so can skill in it, but shall be making cash on the side anyway
April 13, 200917 yr You should get dharok's or torag's body and legs. Best defence in the game....and the costs to repair are minimal.
April 13, 200917 yr Author btw i dont wish for guthans as i shall used bunyip where needed, is d plate ok for training? since it looks pretty anyway now
April 13, 200917 yr btw i dont wish for guthans as i shall used bunyip where needed, is d plate ok for training? since it looks pretty anyway now Naw, dragon sucks. Just get Torag/Dharok/Guthan chestplate and Veracs skirt.
April 13, 200917 yr By d plate I assume you mean dragon. Yes a d plate would be good since it has nice defence stats, but dharoks would be better.
April 13, 200917 yr Author yeah dragon plate, looks alot nicer than barrows armour and i'm forgetful when it comes to fixing them
April 13, 200917 yr Buy the cheapest top and bottom of either Guthans, Dharocks, or Torags (the three with the highest defence). Also, I'd get a rune defender. Dragon Plate is a large waste of money. Thanks to Uno for the awsome sig <3
April 13, 200917 yr Author as i said, i have a defender, and the money would just be sat in my bank anyway if i didnt spend it
April 13, 200917 yr You could spend that extra money on a cannon. It will really speed up your slayer xp
April 13, 200917 yr Sorry, I didn't see the rune defender. Spend the money on a skill later. Don't buy a dplate. Thanks to Uno for the awsome sig <3
April 13, 200917 yr Author as much as it would speed up training i decided long ago i wont ever get one, too many people bullying others out of spots with them, i dont want that to be me :)
April 13, 200917 yr Torags/Dharoks Plate body and Verac's skirt is decent combo. I did use Bandos Tassest and Torags Body before I decided to use the money on other things. Dragon just isn't as good as barrows. as much as it would speed up training i decided long ago i wont ever get one, too many people bullying others out of spots with them, i dont want that to be me :) You can either ask if they mind you setting up a cannon or see if they're almost done, or you can just hop and find another world.

April 13, 200917 yr To buy/get: Slayer mask Fury Fire cape/Mage arena cape Whip DDS/Enhanced excallibur (for specs) Obsidian shield Fighter torso Barrows top and bottoms Karil top and bottom Proselyte That is all the stuff I can think of right now.
April 13, 200917 yr To buy/get: Black mask/ Slayer Helm (When you can get one.) Fury Fire cape/Mage arena cape Untrimmed Range cape if you prefer Whip DDS/Enhanced excallibur (for specs) Rune Defender Fighter torso <- Not worth it unless you already have one Barrows top and bottoms Karil top and bottom <- Only useful on magic based monsters you won't pray on Proselyte <- Good for tasks you pray on, Initiante/Monk Robes also work That is all the stuff I can think of right now.

April 13, 200917 yr Verac's skirt with either proselyte top or bandos/barrows is the best gear for slayer. Ah, this reminds me about the noob on the Runescape forums who was upset with the quest "Cold War" because apparently his grandparents died in the war. :wall:
April 14, 200917 yr Verac's skirt with either proselyte top or bandos/barrows is the best gear for slayer. Proselyte only if you're using superhuman strength. Here's what I'd recommend: Helm: Black Mask/Slayer Helmet Cape: 99 Ranged Weapon: Saradomin Sword (for strength); Whip (for defense) Body: Torag's Shield: Rune Defender Legs: Verac's Gloves: Barrows Boots: Dragon Ring: Berserker How to Chin Nechyraels for fast XP and profit
April 14, 200917 yr Buy the cheapest top and bottom of either Guthans, Dharocks, or Torags (the three with the highest defence). Also, I'd get a rune defender. Dragon Plate is a large waste of money. I agree, I bought dragon plate, and it really wasn't much better than the d chain. In my opinion, the Dragon plate looked really dumb with the high [bleep]ey shoulders. I sold it and bought back the d chain. Barrows items are good, but get really expensive having to fix them all the time. For the price, dragon chain is worth it. Rune defender is really worth it too! Doesn't really cost anything to get either. : http://sign.tip.it/1/6/24/304/lady_scm.png Drops/Clue Finds:Shield left half: 1,Dragon plateskirt: 1, Warrior's Helm: 1, Obsidian Cape: 1, Robin Hood Hat: 1, Dragon Platelegs: 1, Dragon Boots: 4, Amulet of Ranging: 1

Doesn't really cost anything to get either. : Thing is though, they don't get really expensive to fix. If you fix it at 25% and have an armour stand in your house it cuts down on the costs. And sice you only use the Chest piece and legs it doesn't cost that much. I think its about 150k at 0% for Dharok Body and Legs, and that was having Bob fix them, it was like 60k for the legs and 90k for the body. Since you're going to be training slayer and using the armour, you're basicly breaking even on having to pay for the armour.

Since you're going to be training slayer and using the armour, you're basicly breaking even on having to pay for the armour. Depending on your smithing level, the price is very low. For example, at 50 Smithing, you only need to earn 8.5k an hour to repair your barrows body and legs. I think it's impossible to earn less than that while melee slaying. Thanks to Uno for the awsome sig <3
April 14, 200917 yr btw i dont wish for guthans as i shall used bunyip where needed, is d plate ok for training? since it looks pretty anyway now Naw, dragon sucks. Just get Torag/Dharok/Guthan chestplate and Veracs skirt. Dragon does not suck. It still has decent stats, despite the fact that there is better armor in the game. Dragon plate would work just fine. I slayed in dragon chain for a long time. If you have a dragon plate, use the hell out of it! If you are going to melee tasks I strongly suggest you invest in a slayer mask/helm. The bonuses are quite useful.

Please, enlighten me.
April 14, 200917 yr Pfft.. I was wearing d skirt for a long long time while slaying. I started wearing barrows because at one point I simply had too much money to spend. Most slayer monsters aren't really that tough. You do save a lot of money after months of slaying if you use dragon armour. It is absolutely a valid option.

Pureprayer, you're awesome.

The bonuses are quite useful. Bandos is better in every imaginable aspect and is not much more expensive. Barrows has far superior defense bonuses though in some (not very many) situations the extra defense isn't worth the repair cost. Ah, this reminds me about the noob on the Runescape forums who was upset with the quest "Cold War" because apparently his grandparents died in the war. :wall:
