February 8, 201016 yr Well, I just got my first Dark Beast task, and was just wondering how strong/accurate is the Magic atk on Dark beasts if I were to wear Armadyl. The reason I ask is because I'm trying to range as many tasks as I can, and If a Bunyip/Unicorn + Excalibur would be able to keep up with it's magic attack, that would be great.

February 8, 201016 yr When using barrows armor to fight them without prayer, the dark beast hardly used their mage attack. And even then, the damage was minimal. I'd imagine the mage attack will not be the main thing damaging you if you're ranging dark beasts.
February 8, 201016 yr Author The way dark beasts work to my knowledge is if you fight them face to face, they only melee, but if you range/mage them from a distance they'll shoot mage at you. If I range them from a safe spot, their mage is the ONLY thing dammaging me. Is their mage attack too strong/accurate to be worth trying to tank it with a unicorn?

February 9, 201016 yr Idk how hard, but if you're the first to attack them they use their magic attack. This is why when people cannon it is suggested to wear hides or pray magic. And seeing as they have such high of a defense it probably be better to just melee them or cannon if you can.

February 9, 201016 yr Just pray mage and attack from a distance, or use the Rune Rock for a safespot. ~It's Super Effective!

February 9, 201016 yr Author well I'm using Kuradals Dungeon. So I can't cannon them. I'm trying them out right now, I find tanking their melee with a unicorn is working well enough. Idk how hard, but if you're the first to attack them they use their magic attack. This is why when people cannon it is suggested to wear hides or pray magic. And seeing as they have such high of a defense it probably be better to just melee them or cannon if you can. As for this, if you're the first to attack, they only use their magic atk once, the max they've hit using that is an 8 so far for me.
