Does anyone know what level defence would allow me to rarely be hit by Lvl 27 Minotaurs in the stronghold so I wouldnt have to bring food? Im F2P so i'll be wearing full rune. Right now I just hit 55 defence and they have dropped my HP 15 points in 15 mins.

15 hitpoints in 15 minutes isnt "rarely ever hit"?

are you asking at what level your natural hitpoint restore rate compensates for the damage the minotaurs deal?

Yeah, thats what i'm asking for :P.

lol well in that case you'd probably need to find someone with a high defence level, in f2p, that also kills minotaurs *cough* good luck

I recommend you not worry about it :P

:P Here be one on-lunch-break high level f2p noob....

 

My mems has run out temporarily and my bank is stuffed so I only took stuff I have doubles of.

 

In about 7 mins of attacking with a rune longsword (I'm a longsword girl) with power ammy, safety gloves, fancy boots and a wildy cloak I was down about 9 hp. I put on rune platebody, rune full and green d'hide chaps for another 7 or 8 mins and finished down 4 hp. I feel I could stay there until my patience ran out.

 

My defence is much higher than most people my combat level though.

If you're only taking an average net loss of 1 hp/minute, then food shouldn't be a problem--you can stay for 3 hours on an inventory of trout, which is dirt-cheap already. Plus, they drop meat. You're fine already. :wink:

Meh... level 27 minotaurs rarely hit me (1 damage point every 2 mins) and I'm only level 63 defence. You shouldn't need food either, as they also drop some cooked meat for you.

 

Why not range the minotaurs? You can "profit" iron arrows ranging these, as they are very common drops.
