Obtaurian Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 Hi, I was told last night by a few people that you don't need the full battle robes set (hood, top, bottom) to save runes. Is this true? If it is, it'll pretty much revolutionize my mage-slaying. To put it bluntly, [bleep] off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muggiwhplar Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 I think you only need the full set to supplement the SOL effect. Otherwise the battle robe effects should work w/ individual pieces. Not sure, though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tortilliachp Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 only the full set has any effect. the 20% effect only works with the full set, the 50% sol effect only works in conjunction with the whole set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obtaurian Posted June 21, 2010 Author Share Posted June 21, 2010 Dang, it was worth a shot. I'm just missing the robe bottoms (800 more tokens for it), so I was crossing my fingers. To put it bluntly, [bleep] off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infi Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 Hey buddy, not sure if you know but battle robes do sell on the GE, albeit slowly.. I bought my whole set off the GE, updating offers as soon as I saw the price raise (not necessarily right after the update) 99 Hits, Attack, Strength, Defence, Mage, Summoning, Slayer, Ranged, 96/99 Prayer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xpx Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 I wouldn't say not wearing a full slayer helmet makes much differance if you are clearly looking to save money. But yea, the rune saving is a set effect. First to 99 Farming on 27. September, 2005.First to 3766 Port Score on 20. March, 2014.First to 4664 Port Score on 2. March, 2015.

I bought my whole set off the GE, updating offers as soon as I saw the price raise (not necessarily right after the update) I enjoy playing FoG, and it's one of my goals to "complete" every minigame, so that's why I'm doing it the hard way. :wink: I'm gonna sell them to a friend for market price. I wouldn't say not wearing a full slayer helmet makes much differance if you are clearly looking to save money. But yea, the rune saving is a set effect. Yeah, I've thought about it. The cost of mage-slaying doesn't bother me too much, so I'll probably just continue to do it with ahrim's and a full slay helm. To put it bluntly, [bleep] off.

Obtaurian Posted June 22, 2010 Author Share Posted June 22, 2010 Planning on getting an arcane stream and rapier after 99 slayer. I'm too close to stop now. :cool: To put it bluntly, [bleep] off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tortilliachp Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 Planning on getting an arcane stream and rapier after 99 slayer. I'm too close to stop now. :cool: I was 1m slayer exp to 99 when i got my arcane stream and rapier. It was worth it, the time saved is huge, even with so little exp. seeing close to 1100s on ice strykewyrms is worth it alone :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
