[GUIDE]THE BARROWS HANDBOOK


Melter

Recommended Posts

very nice guide

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I especially like the prices section, but unfortunately it isnt 100% accurate and theres no way to do it.

 

 

 

What i mean by that is....

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Last night i decided to try to sell my extra gunthans peices (2 tops and a skirt) and my torags top. I tryed to look for this thread to get an approximation on prices, but i couldnt find it, so i searched the market boards for a while and i came up with these (last night about 2-3am easter time)

 

 

 

Gunthan Plate - 2-2.2 mill

 

 

 

Gunthan Skirt - 1.8-2 mill

 

 

 

Dharoks Plate - 1.7-1.9 mill

 

 

 

Torags Plate - couldnt find anyone selling or buying anywere for an estimation on prices, but some guy offered me 1.1 mill cash and some other random useless items....which i didnt accept beause i didnt know prices.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So i log on this afternoon decide ill try again since i never sold anything last night, i got tired and went to sleep. Prices were waaay different in a matter of 10-12 hours... This was about 1-2pm (eastern)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Gunthan Plate - 1.7-1.8 mill

 

 

 

Gunthan skirt - 1.4-1.6 mill

 

 

 

Dharoks plate - 1.3-1.4 mill

 

 

 

Torags plate - once again no buyers/sellers to find a price

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Over night the prices had changed. Ive heard b4 that the day and tie u log on affects market prices...but I never believed it to be so much. Needless to say I sold nothing and I may try again tonight around 2-3am.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sorry, just a lil story on how prices change so fast :?

 

 

 

but its a great guide

Combat 116+; Total 1900+; All Hard Tasks; (Nearly) All quest points; (Nearly) All skills 60+; An aquatic moose ninja.

Currently: Using 63 hunter to get some of those "Chins", then I'm going to range stuff down. Interruptions of agility when I feel like it, as well.

And lucky enough to get 4 Dragon and 6 Barrow Drops.

[hide]Kwimbob now looks exactly like me in real life except for hair color. Yes, this means I look exactly like the protagonist of that certain anime that my second character, Faye_V is also named after. Yes, I bought a jacket that also looks like his. No in real life I don't have a slain bear to sling over my shoulders. Yes, I'm that skinny even if I no-life it for years in basements. No, I can't shoot a gun. Yes, I can win any other strategic video game you have never played - because I probably have, ahahaha. And yes, I also have brown eyes, yet one of my eyes looks different from the other. And yes, I'm completely oblivious to the [real] world around me as I constantly engineer new solutions to daily problems in my head. When I get hungry, all that isn't food can wait. When I'm sleepy - nothing is of any priority in front of sleep. But at any other time, I never slow down. Never give up. Never Surrender. Makes for a good life.

but anyway, don't you think Jagex would've noticed that "bug" on their own by now? =P

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lol, no, it took them two months to actually believe us when we kept telling them Dharok wasn't working.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hundreds of bug reports were sent, and they were all responded with "how Dharok works", without listening that it doesn't work.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I sent 3 bug reports. Finally, on the the third one I screamed to stop telling me HOW it works, and please check the new toy to see that its DOESN'T work. lol.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Finally, they stopped long enough to test it, and fixed it. This was over 2 months after the Barrows were released.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Soooooo... no... they don't notice, unless we as players scream at them. :P

A circus in Runescape?? Oh my.

What I'm more concerned about is the set effect. Doing KQ in second form, it really seems like I'm hitting through prayer all the time, not just occassionally. I hit a lot of 0's of course, but not as many as I would expect to if there were only a few random times I was able to get a hit in. Has Jagex ever specifically verified any of the set effects for us bored obsessed people?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sorry, ignored this part on last post. Jumped on the Jagex thing too fast. :P

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

They have verified that the prayers of KQ aren't really prayers. They just indicate the high defense that she displays in each form. So, although they aren't technically prayers, she has uber defense stats for those classes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So, I'm assuming that Verac hits through all defense, not just armor. And the specials on the other brothers are pretty common (the ones you can see)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And why didn't they make Veracs and Dharoks special with some of that purple/pink animation so you can know when it hits? Maybe thats a bug too. lol. Wee.

If you posted just pics, and prices, this would be much better, as half the things you say including torag and karils being good for pking just misleads ppl who might actually waste time and money pking in torags. Also im sorry to inform you but, crystal bow isnt better then karils xbow :(

I have done hundreds of barrows runs and Verac has NEVER, not ONCE, hit thru protect from melee. You were either using the wrong prayer mistakenly, or ran out or something.

You should also post teh autocast list for the staff of Ahrim

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It's just the normal spells. Only the ancient staff can auto-cast ancient spells. Ahrim's staff has no unlimited runes, it's as if it were the normal basic 30gp staff from Zaff's, only with +15 magic instead.

You still need the table pics of full verac and the att styles of karil's x-bow (for any one wondering...). You could also maybe order those table pic just a bit more.
