Ezkaton Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 Just did the forgiveness of the Chaos Dwarf quest and I was wondering what setup would be good for me to use to try killing things in the battlefield? I currently have a tester one: Neitz,Fury,Torag bodyTorag LegRoLD BootsWhipDFSand my new def cape. (if all goes well I'd be willing to fire cape) Invo is 3 prayer pots, holy wrench (for when everything is agress and wants to pile) monkfish and a bunyip (for when non agress) Any ideas if this is a good set up or not?

Ezkaton Posted December 30, 2009 Author Share Posted December 30, 2009 Rune Defender >>> DFS. Hmmm, Maybe; but isn't range def paramount in this cave where cannoneers hit over 40?

Georgelemmons Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 Rune Defender >>> DFS. Hmmm, Maybe; but isn't range def paramount in this cave where cannoneers hit over 40? Yes. Most cases, I would agree with Blade, but not here, as range defense is more important than attack bonuses. Your setup and inventory look good, although I'm not sure you even need to pray (at 80 defense and a similar setup I barely had room for drops, starting with a full inventory of monks). Some people prefer to stay in the actual battle and fight the chaos dwarves (who are otherwise engaged in combat with the black guards), but others like fighting the dwogres and cannoneers. I can't comment on which is better, as most of the "drop rates" out there are based on rumors. Also, keep in mind that if you move between the dwogres and cannoneers and the actual battle, the other side with become aggressive again if you move too far.

Bladewing Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 Rune Defender >>> DFS. Hmmm, Maybe; but isn't range def paramount in this cave where cannoneers hit over 40?You're praying range at the beginning anyway, so they'll be meleeing you. Once aggro stops, the cannoneers will be in combat 90% of the time, so a defender is much better.

Once aggro stops, the cannoneers will be in combat 90% of the time, so a defender is much better.Ya the defense of a dfs is only needed here if you really want to try to tank them when they're still aggressive but you'll still probably die even if you had a dfs tanking while they're aggressive. You're going to end up praying range here when they're aggressive anyway so you won't need all the defense of a dfs a rune defender with barrows armour works fine after they're non aggressive.The max is 38 just in case you want to know how high you should keep your hp.

Tact Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 The max is 38 just in case you want to know how high you should keep your hp.I would keep your hp higher than that until the cannoneers become unaggressive. Remember that the battlefield is multicombat and you are often piled by several at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
testingsomestuff123 Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 I bring verac's with defender+whip. 5 pray pots, a summoning pot, 5 bunyips, a tele and 7 sharks. I can usually stay there for 3-5 hours with that set up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although, I'm not sure since I don't log drops or anything, but I would expect a cannon every 1-2 hours, and shots every 30 minutes maybe. Probably way off since my luck there recently has been crap with cannons, and I've been getting 500 shots+ in about an hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More damage, yes, but risk vs. reward, I think it's worth it. Pray ranged and you'll be fine tbh. ~It's Super Effective!
