solo bandos setup

Featured Replies

OK so I'm going to solo bandos, but need to know what setup I should use. I can either use obby shield and dclaws, rune defender and dclaws, or dfs and no special weapon because I can't get ee. The reason for this is because I am using a cls and want to protect it if I die.

Quick question: do you lag alot or something? Looking at your stats, there should be little to no risk of you dying at bandos. Hell, I've done bandos in prosly and a fally shield 3, super sets, haven't come close to dying (solo).

 

What's your budget, too?

 

Claws are only good if you've filled out everything else, otherwise dds does ok. Setup if money isn't an issue: Sw cape/fire cape, v helm, karil's top/bcp, tassies, fury, d boots, ring of life/zerker, cls, dfs/ely/divine/dung shield. Invent is like zammy dhide top for kc, dds, 2-4 overloads, super prayer for emergencies (If you run out alot), rest brews and restores (5:2 or 3:1 brews/restores is a good idea).

Drops: Black Mask.

Clue rewards: Sara Plate, 2 Robins, Some other random stuff.

My budget is 500m, but I'm sure as hell not risking my cost theft even if there is no chance of dieing. Also with ovls I tend to keep my hp at around 600 instead of max so there is a much higher chance of dieing.

Claws and obby shield no question. Read the thread a few topics under yours about shield v defender. Soloing defender sucks. The claws will make up for the defence lost from dfs> obby shield as you'll get faster kills so less damage taken. Also you can claw if a crasher comes, which is unlikey cus your 138 with ovls and CLS lol.

 

U suck.

Yes I know what the best setup is I am quite experienced about soloing bandos, HOWEVER I can't use that setup because I end up risking CLS. That's why I'm asking which set of items would be best, obby shield and dcalws, obby shield and defender, or dfs.

Why not go all out and just take the risk? With your stats, overloads, and that gear, I can't imagine that you'll die. If you keep track of when your overload is about to end, you can keep your LP up for the most part.

I'd say obby shield + claws

Come to #tip-it on Swift IRC, if you're cool

I would use that setup with no special weapon, although EE would be much preferred.

wouldnt you keep cls if you prot itemed?

DK drops (solo/LS): 66 hatchets, 14 archer rings, 13 berserker rings, 17 warrior rings, 12 seerculls, 13 mud staves, 7 seers rings

QBD drops: 1 kite, 2 visages, 4 dragonbone kits, 3 effigies, lots of crossbow parts

CR vs. CLS threads always turn into discussions about penis size.

It's not called a Compensation Longsword for nothing.

I've sent a 12k combat mission to have Aiel assassinated (poor bastard isn't even Pincers-tier difficulty).

That you would, perhaps, but it's still risky, at least 5+ million. Then again, you could make that in like 2 hours of solo Bandos.

I piety the fool.

He keeps the CLS as long as he does not bring a special weapon, or as long as he brings a cheap shield.

Agreed. No need to keep your LP that low during the kill, time your overloads. You lose about 33% kils per trip if you don't time them anyway...

 

I've been about 4? times at solo bandos, i've never came close to dying with the equipment i've said before (Piety, super sets, Prosyl top/bottom, Fally 3, whip, glory, d boots, b gloves, sw cape, ect.)

Well, that's all luck. You could've easily been KO'd with your stats and that gear.

Not to mention lagging out. I've died at bandos like that before, and certainly don't plan to risk my CLS for now.
