Avansies Prayer Gear

[hermyabc]

Hi, I know that there are multiple guides out there for praying avansies, however, I need some advice from experienced players.

 

As of now, what is more important, range bonus or range bonus? What are some good set ups for a Void Pure?

[ghjkl]

Range bonus=Range bonus :lol:

 

You want a pray bonus of about 12, then pour the rest into range.

 

As with a void setup:

 

Void

 

Rune crossbow with broad bolts

 

Archer ring

 

ranger boots

 

zammy book

 

fury

 

 

 

ALl you really need is a zammy item if you stay to the west

[hermyabc]

Thanks, by the way, I will be in the arma encampment.

 

Does anyone know the average xp an hour at 75 range?

 

 

 

 

 

And why 12 prayer bonus?

[Geburah]

The exp per hour is around 35-40k/h

[hermyabc]

Does anyone know why the optimal prayer bonus is 12?

[bsmovies]

It isn't the optimal. It's just an ok figure.

 

 

 

 

 

Personally, If you have the defence, I'd wear dhide body, monk legs, mitre, and fill everything else with range boosting equips. My setup is like this and I manage to have a prayer boost of 20+ and range boost of 110+. Best of both :)

[JoeDaStudd]

Depends on your prayer level but this is about the best void prayer bonus you'll want/get if you have the money.

 

Stole (sara)

 

Unholy book (zammy)

 

Bandos boots (1+ prayer and bandos protection)

 

The rest of the item slots are pretty much taken although you can wear explorers 3 for an extra prayer bonus.

 

 

 

Lets you get a few extra respawns in the zammy/bandos area and lets you run to the sara area to regain the auto attack from the avis.

 

 

 

For pure prayer replace the void helm with mitre, top and bottoms with monk robes (lets you use 10% prayer all the time) and gloves with barrows or dhide.

[gorgoroth]

I always go with the Highest Prayer bonus i can get. With the right gear you can get upto 40 Prayer bonus. You will however have a low Ranged bonus but thats why i use the 10% prayer.

[hermyabc]

So either 20ish prayer bonus and some range bonus or best possible prayer bonus + hawk eye?

 

What about emerald tipped bolts (e)?

[Silver_Corner]

Thanks, by the way, I will be in the arma encampment.

 

 

 

If you plan to kill them inside the arma encampment area, keep in mind you will need an armadyl item of some sort. Even though you will be praying range, there are also armadyl meleers and magers who will attack you inside if you do not have a armadyl item on.

 

 

 

As for a general setup for the inside area, really anything goes if your praying and it can be cheap if you want to it be. Just make sure you have:

 

 

 

1) Arma item (Helm/Body/Skirt/Amulet)

 

2) Zammy item (Don't need a sara item inside the area)

 

3) Decent prayer bonus anything over 10-15+

 

4) Rest Range bonus

 

 

 

There isnt really a perfect setup, but as long as you have something along those lines above you should be fine.

[hermyabc]

Thanks, yeah I forgot the arma pend and got pwned in the encampment 2 minutes ago...teleed out at 5 hp...0_0

 

So no sara items needed?

[Silver_Corner]

So no sara items needed?

 

 

 

Its not *required*, but you can bring one if you like.

 

 

 

There are no sara monsters in the actual encampment area. The only place you can get attacked by sara is outside on your way walking to the armadyl area.

 

 

 

You might want to wear a holy symbol when you enter GWD, and pray range**. Then walk over the armadyl entry way. Once you get to the entrance, put on the armadyl pendant, then grapple over.

 

 

 

**Keep in mind that avians OUTSIDE of the encampment can only range you, so range protection will keep them from doing damage outside the encampment.

 

 

 

That procedure should protect you from most of the monsters attacking you on your way to Avians.

[JoeDaStudd]

If your praying don't go in the arma area. There are twice the hp on that side and you have to wear an arma item (losing up 10+ prayer bonus)

[hermyabc]

Wait, you are saying that they take longer to kill on the other side?

[JoeDaStudd]

They take twice as long to kill due to the double hp, don't auto attack you and you lose a possible 10+ prayer bonus.

[hermyabc]

Are you sure that they have double hp?

 

I just checked the tip.it database and it says otherwise

[mmmcannibalism]

Are you sure that they have double hp?

 

I just checked the tip.it database and it says otherwise

 

 

 

he may be thinking of the fact there are a few of the level 130 something aviansie in the arma area

 

 

 

killing in the arma chamber is perfectly fine, there are 3 or 4 spots with multiple low level spawns, and if you have your zammy and arma items you dont have to worry about going near a sara monster.

[hermyabc]

Ah I see, well I did some research and this is what I found: Combat levels do not really affect hp.

 

In increasing HP order:

 

Avansies CB:

 

71, 73, 69, 131,94, 97.

 

Avansies with these CB's have Hp's in the range of the 60's and 70's

 

while the CB 84 and 87 Avansies have much higher HP's.

 

And yeah I decided on inside the encampment because there are many more avansies and I found a sweet spot.

 

 

 

This question is solved.

 

 

 

Results (it might help other people)

 

For a level 76 zerker pure with 44 prayer and 71 range, best gear is:

 

Sara Mitre, Arma Pendent, Monk robes top and bottom, Rune cross bow with emerald (e) bolts, zammy book, archers ring and climbing boots in Armadyls encampment.
