Seems like some people thought my query which i put there is a fake. Well i don't mind really if you think that, but trust me its not, i mean what point would there be for me to make a fake thing like that, i just sent in a query and got an answer. To be honest i don't know whats up with these answers but its happened more that once that two different querys got two different answers, but from both of the previous ones we can derive at least one thing, wearing a ring of wealth DOES PAY OFF, whether it be for barrows items OR the other stuff (at least one of them for sure, i think).

18/22 skills at or better than 60.

1300+ skill total.

Barrows:Torag's Helm x2, Guthan's Helm, Guthan's Warspear, Dharok's Greataxe, died to dharok, Guthan's Platebody, Ahrim's Hood. All in a total of 104 runs.

The Lumby walk from tele spot to altar is so close you can see it on the mini map. Definately my tele spot of choice. I hate walking. lol

 

 

 

what about if you tele to vorrock and use the alter next to canifis? thats what works for me

Does mag atk bonus actually help at all?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

because I have been using full verac since I got it as my armour I use while I mage and I don't seem to hit that much less than wen I used mage robes..?

I don't think mage attack matters that much. Wearing Veracs may make you have one more odd splash here or there, but it isn't that much overall. Mage attack really matters the most when you are pking or fighting some high level creature that isn't as weak as these brothers are to magic.

I did a quick search and no one seems to have posted this "bug" before.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You can open the reward chest without killing the 6th brother and get an armor drop. I did and got t hammers.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Opening the chest before killing the 6th brother might drastically reduce your chances of getting any armor at all, but in this one case it worked for me.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

EDIT: Removed some stuff that was wrong.

Anybody else beside me use range to kill all the barrow brother? Cbow/Karil's x-bow + between 108 and 102 ranged works very well for me, I'm a tad slower than mages with high spell, but I waste less cash per shot and I'm still as fast as mages with, say, fire bolt.

Its common thats customer support gives different answers. Keep in mind, these folks are NOT mods. They are minimum wage cust serv reps that don't know everything. The only thing that concerns me about this reply is that it is not the normal form letter used for the thousands of Barrows inquiries they get.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I don't think its a fake, but I don't trust the answer. Hehe.

Actually, you can kill one and get an item. Its just a better chance if you kill all six, so they say. If it wasn't for this, I'd skip Karil altogether.

if i want ahrim's.. do i need 70 def as well? or only 70 mage?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I think so.. But in that chase it would be really stupid..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yep, you need 70 mage and 70 def to wear Ahrim's

Guide is updated to show the new kill count data.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Kill count does matter, but only slightly.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You could argue thats its better to go faster, and kill less.

 

 

 

You could argue to go higher kill count, and take less trips.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Unfotunately, I did not track the "time" taken when doing 10-20 kill count, vs 20-30 kill count. They probably provide around the same amount of drops "per hour". Hehe.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Also, using Verac is cool. The armor helps your pray bonus greatly, and with the special, you might even be tempted to bash the melee brothers. REVENGE! 8) Replace your rune or dragon or Torags with Verac if you have it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Annnnnd... the super restore pot is a great addition, because if you're maging Karil the ranger, he is going to wipe away your agility levels. After one fight with him, I've been taken down to 18/70 agillity. And since this routine takes alot of running, this is not good. Super Restore Potions restore prayer (1 better than pray pot), agility levels, and any damage Ahrim did to your combat stats.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks for bearing with seeing this on the front page again. It needed an update and a bump. We're losing some guides on the Archive due to inactivity. :(

dnt know if your still updatin this guide, but dharok definately hit a 59 on me, but you say his max is 58, lost 1.6m :(

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It used to be 58. I'm gonna need someone to verify this. No offense, but with 2 post count, I gotta have more ppl telling me they got hit for 58+

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There was a rumor that he can hit up to 72, but I've never seen it confirmed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Has anyone gotten hit for more than 58 from the real Dharok?

I don't know if this was changed from a previous update but you CAN use a cannon in the tunnels. I used about 10k c balls while I was down there.

PM me in game to use some skills of mine (glories/potions) free or to ask a question.
