FireCape Setup help

[skylor12344]

Ok so after long debates and trips to GWD, Dk's, KBD, KQ, and CE i've decided to try to get my firecape AGAIN. Now im looking for the best way to do this using guthans and ranging (i tried using only ranging but i cant get it right). Now im not the best pray switcher but i have figured out what pray to use when against jad. All help is appreciated and PLEASE DONT JUST LINK ME TO A GUIDE.

 

EDIT: I only have about 5-6m tops to spend on this.

I found it easy to range, even with my stats (although I haven't beaten Jad...I fail at pray switch). I made it to Jad easily by using an EE for health and just ranging. I took a Rune C'bow about about 1500-2000 broad bolts, with about 300 diamond (e) bolts for the 360's and Jad. I had about 8 brews, and I want to say about 16 super restores (it's been a while since I've done it).

[Aiel]

even without EE guthans is so outdated....go with super rests+brews ranging with broads and onyx bolts (e) for jad.

no offence but...

 

1. Obviously you didnt read that i didnt do well with range which is why im using guthans + ee and i dont wanna use range because i cant get the safespotting down and i dont have 100s of millions to spend on getting 1 cape even if it is the best one in the game.

 

2. I dont have the money to spend on onyx(e) bolts.

[TomH]

just use diamond bolts for 360s and jad

 

if you're guthan-ing take like 3 brews and the rest restores really. and a range pot, theres not much to it lol

Ok i was thinking about using the setup from a guide i found on the AoW:

 

Guthans Helm

Sara Stole(cant afford fury and according to the guide this is the next best thing)

Guthans Plate

Guthans Legs

Snakeskin/Ranger Boots(borrowed)

Barrows gloves

Guthans Spear

Defence Cape(t) / Accumulator when using d'hide(Jad and the 360's)

Archer Ring

 

Invo:

Black D'hide Top

Black D'hide Legs

Rune C'bow

Spirit Shield

1 Range Potion

4 Sara Brews

Rest Restores

 

does this sound correct?

Sounds pretty good to me, I'm not sure how Guthan's will fare on the healing, but if it don't work out, bring the EE and you can easily make it all the way to Jad. Good luck!

forgot to add EE to the inventory that will defo be somthing i bring in place of a restore xD

Don't forget your bolts either :thumbsup:, I'm definitely no expert at Jad, but that looks pretty decent to me for a set-up.

You can have the best equipment possible, but equipment isn't the main factor to beat jad (at least it isn't for people who don't have millions to spend). You say you don't want to be simply linked to a guide and you're not good at prayer switching. But honestly, sirhemen's guide, any guide that helps you get better at prayer switching, is all that you really need in order to be ready for jad's attacks.

 

You're equipment might get you through the first sixty-two waves faster, that's a given. However, if you aren't relaxed when you get to jad, your chances to beat it are pretty slim. No set of equipment will help you with that.

Honestly your not telling me anything new mate, this isnt my first rodeo against Jad...i've failed him 15 diffrent times but thx to some trips to Dk's and Some practice with a mate at duel arena im getting used to the pray switching and i think ill be ok.

Diamond (e)'s? I took about 300, and used maybe 100-150 getting to Jad (only on 360's, but didn't always switch from broads). There's probably not much harm in brining extra's just to be safe.

Okay sounds good, i think i might switch 1 more restore with 1-2k broads just to be safe for the 360's so i dont use up all my diamond(e) bolts on BEFORE i make it to Jad since that was my breaking point last time around when i ran out of bolts and got ko'd xD

Lol better than my last time...I ran too close and got [cabbage]slapped and died...haven't been back since because it's kind of boring, imo. Anyways, good luck, and be sure to post your results to aid other following this!

[skylor12344]

Haha, I defo will be posting my results after im finished and i pray they will be good this time and i walk away with a fire cape xD

[Ezkaton]

I got my cape with 85 defence and 75 range :P I took only a total of ~30-40 damage going through the waves so yea :D with 99 defence the waves will be a walk in the park for you.

 

anyways your setup seems to be awesome and sounds alright; however I welfared mine :P MSB + Rune arrows ftw! I was actually only aiming for the ketzeks.

 

But ya, good luck with it! The only problem is jad and the switching; however, a little sneaky, if not a tad suicidal tip, from Lala (the mod on here, or atleast I think she's a mod); but pray mage on jad and just hope to god that his range attack doesn't hurt as badly. Not saying this is advised; but it could be tried? And then again think of all those people who're now proving you don't need protect prayers for him now :)

 

But keep going matey and don't get discouraged! I wana see that fire cape!

I seem to remember that the advice was not to suicide with mage pray on. More along the lines of keeping Mage pray on and only switching to range pray when Jad stomps the ground. Effectively reducing the amount of stress and clicking, and lack of life, too.

Thanks for correcting me :) I only thought she said mage pray. Anyways, go with the above edit by mega :D

[skylor12344]

Ok so that didnt turn out as planned...made it to jad with little to no problem but a sudden spike of lagg caused me to get oblitereated in return

aww >< try again ! I have a fury you could borrow if you wanted. but i noticed your already borrowing boots. But if you would like to try with a fury or any other things, I might have then give me a pm, in game or here, i check both pritty often.

[skylor12344]

i tried again using a diffrent setup and made it almost to jad before i ran out of p pots. New setup was

 

Guthans helm

Glory

Guthans Plate

Guthans Legs

Dragon Boots

Barrows Gloves

Guthans Spear

Defence Cape(t)

Archer Ring

 

Invo:

4 pray potions(4)

EE

Fally Shield 3

Black D'hide top

Black d'hide legs

Crystal Bow

Rest Sharks

 

Made it all the way the double 360 wave before i ran out of prayer.

[skylor12344]

hmm im honestly debating giving up on the fire cape since i've failed for the 5th time today (been trying since 4:30 am this morn) and 21st time overall...is it really worth it since im failing so much or should i just stick to the cape i have now?

[Matt_Marche]

With your stats you could even try rushing. I'm sure you know how to get to Jad effectively by now, so to rush all you need is:

 

Your best potions (so super atk and str)

Claws or dds

Whip Or Gs

And of course, vengeance.

 

With my stats, no vengeance, and dds I managed to get Jad down to about 50(500) hp and died due to a bad hit. I'm sure if you used vengeance you could beat him with this method.

[Neltak]

Looking at your latest setup I'd suggest bringing 6-8 ppots (instead of 4) and one range pot to use throughout 360's waves (saving one sip for Jad of course), then the rest sharks. With guthans and EE I can't see you needing to eat any food prior to Jad and as long as you don't miss many prayer switches there you should have more than enough food to take him down.

 

As far as giving up on it goes I'd agree with giving up for now as long as you get it before 93 slayer. I'm not a big fan of the fire cape (but finally got it due to slayer) since other capes are superior and more useful imo.
