Ranging Spiritual Mages?

Featured Replies

Alright so I felt like killing some spiritual mages and seeing as my range was low I tried a ranging trip. I didn't know anything about ranging them so I just threw on some gear I thought of and tried it out, Heres the gear I used.

If I aint mistaken you can tank them without the need of prayer, my friend does it anyway. He brings along a Sara Owl and uses a Zammy book, and the rest is normal range gear.

 

Err.. That is pretty nice btw

I dont need a siggy no moar.

just so you know, theres a place in the bandos stronghold where you can safespot 2 bandos spiritual mages. there's an AOW guide for it.

Check out the AOW there's a guide on safespot ranging them - no prayer needed.

 

 

 

For Zamorak ones your gear looks OK, maybe void, stole and book instead if you have void?

 

 

 

By the way pick up astral runes and maybe take range potions. Knives may be better than rune crossbow.

Yah you can kill them without them attacking you.

 

 

 

Right when you get down the rope there are 3-4 mages to the west(toward saragodwars) so between the rope and saragodwars the sara mages are attacking stuff around there and when they are attacking something and u attack them they wont attack you until they kill the enemy.

Arma Helm-sara/zammy coif-archer

 

sara/zammy dhide chest-black dhide

 

sara/zammy dhide legs- black dhide

 

barrows gloves-sara/zammy vamps

 

ROW

 

Fury-sara/zammy stole-glory

You will need to have sara and zammy item for sure bandos and arma you will be able to get away without

Only need a Sara/Zammy item, I've done this before.

Here's what I used:

 

 

 

Full Void Ranged

 

Accumulator

 

Fury

 

Black Knives

 

Unholy Book

 

Snakeskin Boots

 

 

 

I brought 2 ranging potions (4), a teleport, Holy Wrench, four open inventory spots, and 20 prayer potions (4). I prayed magic and eagle eye. I killed about 250 an hour.

 

 

 

Even if you don't decide to use eagle eye, black knives are much faster kills even without it. Mages are pathetically weak to range.

 

 

 

EDIT: last time I checked, the Bandos Mages have been "fixed"

Just fyi the changes in the Engine has made luring monsters ever so SLIGHTLY different, and now the bandos safespot is pretty much nerfed. You can still kill one of them (Southern one?) but you need to have the style put on long range, and that makes it less efficient then zammy/sara ones.
