Seanthorn Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 I'm going back to melee and i fancy getting a set of barrows armour.Whatst he best set-up i can have with about 3M? Including weapon and everything) Thanks :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troacctid Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 Hmm the trouble is that all the weapons typically suck except in very specific situations, and even then only Verac's and Dharok's are worthwhile. You are almost universally better off with a mix-and-match of Barrows armour (Torag/Dharok plate, Verac legs, Verac/Guthan/Torag helm) plus a whip.

Cptbaker08 Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 Only pieces i find useful from barrows are the Chest and Leg pieces. The helm is covered by the Neitz and the Whip+Rune Defender beats all other weapons. For now I'm slaying in Torags Top and Veracs skirt.

DemonicSushi Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 I strongly suggest you either get TORAGS BODY + LEGS if you are poor If not, GUTHANS FULL SET gives an amazingly useful effect which you can use to train melee afk in several places (Bandits, Kalphites etc...) If you DO get TORAGS BODY + LEGS then definitely use it with a NEITZ HELM and a WHIP + rune DEFENDER !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thunderlord Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 you might as wel buy dharok legs+plate, it's cheaper than torag's, has the same stats and i think it looks better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dax Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 you might as wel buy dharok legs+plate, it's cheaper than torag's, has the same stats and i think it looks better Do this. Or, if you can get it, Verac's Skirt and Dharok's body. #KERR2016/17/18/19/20/21. #rpgformod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Racheya Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 ^^ What they all said. But if you can afford it - full Guthans is incredibly useful for things like slayer, not worrying about food and being able to stay indefinitely is really useful. If you combine it with a whip and only use the spear when you need healing, you can make it last a bit longer too. I edit for the [Tip.It Times]. I rarely write in [My Blog]. I am an [Ex-Moderator].

I'm slaying to L85 atm and I just take whip, r defender & slayer mask with me...Makes me do most assignments without banking... 2016 goals: all skills +30mil xp - Completed this goal 11th December 2016 2017 goals: get at least 3 more master capes (start xp: invention done@21st Jan, mining done@2nd April & ranged 76/104mil done@June 20th) & all skills +40mil xp (done 24th August) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiriyama Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 Or you can be smarter and get Guthan's Platebody. Cheaper than the others, and same defence. Though the Chainskirt has worse defence. I'd say Guthan's Platebody and Verac's Skirt. Denizen of Darkness| PSN= sworddude198 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kickler123 Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 you might as wel buy dharok legs+plate, it's cheaper than torag's, has the same stats and i think it looks better Really? I thought that the Torag's has a better defence bonus than Dharoks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troacctid Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 you might as wel buy dharok legs+plate, it's cheaper than torag's, has the same stats and i think it looks better Really? I thought that the Torag's has a better defence bonus than Dharoks.That's a common misconception. The full Torag's set has the highest defense of the melee sets, but not because the defense bonuses are higher than the other sets--it's because it combines the exact same defense bonuses as the best pieces from the other sets. Torag's helm has the exact same stats as Guthan's helm; Torag's platelegs have the exact same stats as Dharok's; and all three of their platebodies are identical. In addition, Verac's helm and skirt have the same melee defense as Torag's, sacrificing some ranged defense for prayer bonus.

onedaysoon Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 Get veracs skirt for sure. Costs like 1.1m so thats 1.9m left over. I'd say get maybe a dharok plate with that, its like 600-900k, cant remember, that still eave you with 1m to play with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
