Pics would be good and a list like:

 

Helm -

Cape-

Necklace-

Ammo-

Weapon-

Torso-

Shield-

Gloves-

Bottoms-

Ring-

Boots-

 

I would also love an inv pic or something.

Thanks in advance

BGS is also a great weapon for special because if you get a good hit you can lower defence and make the fight a good amount easier.

 

And why does he have to borrow them?

He assumed that he doesn't have them, which isn't an unreasonable assumption to make as they are an expensive luxury item only practical for specing. Also you can wear a Karil's top for better range bonus without having to worry about it degrading, probably an archer for the ring slot too since you'll get everything back that doesn't have a destroy option.

Remember non-degradable melee armor for his melee berserker attack mode. It really helps. Even just rune.

I recommend Full Void with a Ranger and Melee helmet:

 

[zotto]

I used...

 

neitz helm

Fury

black d'hide

Bandos tassets (didn't want to use verac skirt because of degrading when dieing).

Range boots

Unholy book

avas accumulator

archer's ring

 

Rune c bow

ruby (e)

 

Zamorakian spear.

 

War tortoise filled with saras

Inventory filled with saras, a few restores and a few super restores for prayer.

---

I first just ranged him with rub (e) till he went berserk.

Then I switched to zamorakian spear.

 

I drank an overload dose at the bank chest so I would not need to restore much the first 5 minutes. Topped up HP before I went in.

 

I never managed when I just did melee, or just did range. However, first ranging and then meleeing worked a lot better.

[glasscube]

I just completed it 5 minutes ago.

 

96 range, 85 def, 92 hp, 87 mage. I used diamond bolts, karils top, black dhide legs, zamorak book, guthix coif, accumalator, fury. I used Karils top because it was kept on death so wouldn't degrade and the extra magic defense makes a difference that is quite noticeable (imo). I used darklight special. Seriously, try darklight. Darklight spec rips him apart imo. I switched to obsidian shield when he went berserk. Was left with 6 brews 60 pray and 1 dose super restore, I used regular restores. I prayed eagle eye and steel skin the whole match until he went berserk then I used protection from melee too since its said that helps. I would have used curses except for the fact that I don't have leech defense/range. Otherwise that would definitely be better, maybe with some sap melee for the end when he goes berserk?

 

Something I noticed, when he went berserk I was chugging brews like crazy and was still attacking quite quickly. So I think the game goes lienent on you and forces your character to attack every once and a while? Don't take my word on it, its not like I really paid attention because I was spamming brews with auto retaliate on.

That's funny, I actually hardly had to take saras after he went beserk. In fact, I was worried about the berserk face before I started, but that turned out the most easy part.

 

I had piety on of course all the time.

Yeah, I only used steel skin because I ranged the whole thing. You had a little more equipment defense then I had I believe. Idk, it probably all came down to luck on both of our parts maybe ( you having lots, I having none).

 

Rune kite would have been better, but I used what I had on hand.

 

Edit: There were times where I wasn't getting hit at all, but idk maybe my nerves of 'steel' made it seem worse then what it was ;)

[zotto]

yes, i think luck plays a big part in this fight, since I am convinced I only beat him this time because I got lucky with ruby (e) hits.

 

I had done the exact same thing before and failed. But then again by practicing a few dies I had the pot drinking under better control.

You also have maxed combat stats and I did it with 80 defense and 82 range. For me, melee armor meant the difference between 10 failures and 1 success.
