If you open the chest, he'll pop up... supposedly.... if its already open just wait for it to close. lol. (You have to open AND search, remember?)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What about closing it yourself?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lol. Can you do that? Is there a "close" option?

I'm do apologize if this question has already been asked (my first time reading this and i've only been to the barrows like 4 times)... but does the ring of wealth increase your odds of getting something good?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Also... when i'm in Mor'ton and I try to talk to the general store guy... he doesn't make any sense... When i search the broken table to find a herb for Serum 207 it says i find nothing :(

No, it has no effect on the chest drops. Definately advisable to use ring of life instead.

A circus in Runescape?? Oh my.

Combat 116+; Total 1900+; All Hard Tasks; (Nearly) All quest points; (Nearly) All skills 60+; An aquatic moose ninja.

Currently: Using 63 hunter to get some of those "Chins", then I'm going to range stuff down. Interruptions of agility when I feel like it, as well.

And lucky enough to get 4 Dragon and 6 Barrow Drops.

[hide]Kwimbob now looks exactly like me in real life except for hair color. Yes, this means I look exactly like the protagonist of that certain anime that my second character, Faye_V is also named after. Yes, I bought a jacket that also looks like his. No in real life I don't have a slain bear to sling over my shoulders. Yes, I'm that skinny even if I no-life it for years in basements. No, I can't shoot a gun. Yes, I can win any other strategic video game you have never played - because I probably have, ahahaha. And yes, I also have brown eyes, yet one of my eyes looks different from the other. And yes, I'm completely oblivious to the [real] world around me as I constantly engineer new solutions to daily problems in my head. When I get hungry, all that isn't food can wait. When I'm sleepy - nothing is of any priority in front of sleep. But at any other time, I never slow down. Never give up. Never Surrender. Makes for a good life.

woooooot

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thats the first pic of a drop with two pieces ever posted. Looks valid, too, the rune and bolt rack counts are accurate, from six brother drops.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Congrats. lol. I've gone probably 600 times plus, never had a double drop. :)

Are you sure? I sent in a query asking if ring of wealth or crumbling tome increaces ur chances of somethin good, and Mod Mark H answered that a ring of wealth would. I would give a screenie, but idk how to post them here. Here is the Quote at least.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Dear Skaajned,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thank you for contacting RuneScape Customer Support.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A ring of wealth when worn will help increase the chance of getting an item of worth from the barrows chest.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A crumbling tome however will not help increase your chance.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Making sure to kill all of the brothers first is also a good way to make sure you get a good item.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I hope that this helps resolve your problem.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yours Sincerely

I was wondering, does an equipped ring of wealth, or a carried crumbling tome affect the chances of getting a barrows item from the barrows chest? Thank you in advance.

Thats the first time they've said anything other than a definate no. Either this is made up, or that guy is new, or they changed things.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Time to test that.... Who wants to submit some additional querries and post pics if its news. :)

i would say he is not easy to melee, you should use mage on all of the brothers except for ahrim, use range on him then you should have an easy time in the barrows

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

good luck!

ty. the reason i was asking was tht i was very low on death runes. only 29 after dharok and 6 after verac. i went and made some chaos runes though. torag killed at chest, got d med :D :D :D and a bunch of runes (no deaths though :x )

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

*update*2nd trip was very good. got torags legs, 225 deaths, some chaos and fires. man im lucky

I must admit, this guide started em on the barrows about 2 months ago, but i stopped as my technique was atrocious. (i was using ice burst and 4 prayer pots per trip) So now i got 55 slayer, 28 tipes done so far, no items, but the really sweet thing is, im making a ton just off the chaos and bloods =p
