This one.

 

Run in there and start killing stuff.

 

The only difference with using a Yak and Overloads as opposed to a Uni and Ext Rangings is that you need to bring a uni pouch/scrolls in your yak for use after it's finished.

 

3:1 or 7:2 Brews to restores, and have about 2 (4) overloads (experiment with it).

 

If you have Soul Split, overload at 38 KC and soul split the last 2 kc, that way you're on full health.

 

Time your overloads. They re-boost your stats every 15 seconds, and they restore 500 health at the end of it. Stay on max health or close to it throughout 4 minutes, then let your health go down in the last minute. Make sure to keep doing the 3 brews/1 restore method between the overload boosts, otherwise you'll lose stat points. (overloads actually boost 26 points at 99 every 15 seconds, giving it the illusion of maxing the whole time).

 

If you only need a little bit of health, drink one brew right before a overload boost.

Gives a much better inventory than aki, as I believe he's never actually had any experience soloing arma.

He asked for overloads, and I don't believe that Lenny's guide has a section on that. I do know it uses extreme ranging pots, and I disagree with using any boosts but overloads with brews. That's just my personal opinion though.

 

Apart from my forgetting a mith grapple (>_<), my invent's basically identical to lenny's, except i don't have all the restores in my invent vs yak.

 

I actually have had experience soloing arma, too, :3

 

But it's not pro, and you're probably right.

Drops: Black Mask.

Well it's certainly not pro with only 2 overloads lol =\

 

OT: I don't know of one. I kind of make up my inventory each time I go.

Overloads are 5 mins/dose, so 8 doses lasts 40 minutes...

 

I don't really see a trip lasting more then that long. Maybe an hour, if you're lucky.

Aki I usually bring two overloads and I don't have yak/99 def/99 mage. Jesus should bring 4 overloads, 5 if he has divine.

best drops (reasonably accurate/up to date): 1x Elysian Sigil (LS), 1x Arcane Sigil (cs), 4x Armadyl Hilt (solo at 100m, 100m, 50m, and 5m), 2x Saradomin Hilt (solo at 25m), 5x Draconic Visage (34m,1.2m,1.2m) and various cs/ls/ffa Nex splits.
Drygore Drops: 7 Longswords, 3 Maces, 3 Rapiers, 3 Off-hand Rapiers,  5 Off-hand Maces, 3 Off-hand Longswords

ROTS Shields: 12  Seismics: 16

Ascension Crossbows: 6  Spider Legs: 10

Countless Armadyl armour pieces, Saradomin amulets, Dragon Hatchets, and Fremenik Rings.

This is why you shouldn't give advice if you don't know what you're talking about. :rolleyes:

To put it bluntly, [bleep] off.

I've had no personal experience at extended armadyl trips, but I recall from one of Geodoni's vids saying that he averaged an hour a trip or so.

 

Considering Geo has a Divine and the OP has a DFS, I thought it was a reasonable assumption to say that he'd stay less time then Geo.

Ok...So 4 Overloads..

 

Any clue on Brews/Super Prayers/Super Restores?

_p3_minato_arisato_signature__by_x0sandylicious0x-d3hnk6v.png

Super prayers, at least in my opinion, should only be brought if you're using a Divine or find yourself strapped for prayer.

 

I'd reccomend a 7:2 Brews/Restores, so you can still do the 3 brews/1 restore when you majorly need health, but can just sip a dose before an overload refresh when you don't need much.

Someone showed me this on IRC the other day, was a good read. Extremely detailed, too.

That's actually pretty good, considering you're using karils bottom instead of arma and a dfs instead of spectral, ect.

 

Don't use Sara vambs, waste of a spot, wear zammy ones.

 

My assumption/opinion is the following:

 

Max gear/stats with dfs: max of about 14 kills.

 

Max gear/stats with Spectral: max of about 16 kills n

 

Max gear/stats with Eagle-eye shield: max of about 17 kills.

 

Max gear/stats with divine/ely: max of about 18 kills.

Those figures are vastly wrong.

 

Ely manages 21 kills per trip on average and divine can average 28 per trip. Those 2 numbers are with lots of experience at solo however.

 

As for you managing 12 kills, that's not bad considering it's your first trip, you should average 15 a trip with your maxed stats and if you use full arma/vhelm with your DFS. Just try to time your overloads so you are max range most of the time and try flick soul split/ pro range on minions to get that extra bit of health.

I've never heard of 20+ kills at arma solo, am I watching too many outdated guides? >_>

Yeah, I have friends who can manage over 25 kills with Divine :/.

 

I'll keep wearing Saradomin Vambs, because if I don't then I'll end up wasting extra Prayer Potion doses on KC (Because Unholy Book gives +5 Prayer bonus, and some ranged attack so I get KC a bit faster and don't use as many Prayer Potions).

_p3_minato_arisato_signature__by_x0sandylicious0x-d3hnk6v.png

Shouldn't need a sara item at all though.

This.

 

Just climd down rope and immediately run and grapple and you're sorted, no need for sara item. Also no prayer potions are needed for KC, just flick soul split and your done.

Most important part in extending trips is probably timing your overloads.

Well, I'm not bringing Barrows gloves because they protect over ACP, so I'll keep the vambs.

 

Also, I fail at flicking.

_p3_minato_arisato_signature__by_x0sandylicious0x-d3hnk6v.png

Then use Zamorak vambraces.
