Hell Hounds Gear

Featured Replies

What I normally use on a slayer task:

 

Full slayer helmet

Fury

Legends cape

Prossy plate

Verac skirt

Whip

Dragon Defender

Dragon boots

Barrow gloves

Kuradel Ring

 

I use piety all the time, use super att + str + def potions and a Bunyip.

 

This methode with this setup works fine for almost all task except for hellhounds. Even with my inventory filled up with monkfish I have to bank every 80 hellhounds or so.

I'm now thinking about using my old guthan's set, but arent there any faster / more effective ways / gear to kill them?

 

I dont have a EE to heal since I do not have the stats to get one.

You could try using guthans, a few sharks, and just switching to guthans when you need to heal. =p Or just get an EE as they are VERY useful here and let me do my tasks with minimal effort.

You're right beside a teleport, banking is faster than using slow damaging guthans. As for gear, a chaotic rapier would be better if you can be bothered to get it. Obsidian cape has slightly better def than legends (+9 vs +7 I think). If you want you could use verac's brassard (decent defence and +4 prayer, prossy is +7) or just use a barrows platebody but you're probably better off just taking the damage and saving ppots with prossy.

Good on you for using piety.

You could try for a little more prayer with ardy cape 3, prossy legs, and just pray melee. Or if you're willing to do it, focus a little more and pray flash.

 

You really should try to get the stats for the EE though. It's probably one of the more useful diary rewards.

Switch out the whip and defender for a zammy spear.

 

They are freakishly weak to stab. You'll kill at least 150 faster if you use zspear over whiop.. THAT is your problem.

Right... hellhounds are weak to anything, you really shouldn't need to exploit weaknesses. These are not steel dragons you know.

 

Get a prayer boosting cape (god cloak works), proselyte legs and pray protect from melee. It's not that much more costly and saves you a bunch of trouble. Alternatively borrow bcp, but that probably won't do.

Protect from melee is probably my best option. Getting the stats for an EE takes ages but i'll need them sooner or later.

 

Thanks for the info :thumbsup:

Bones to peaches tabs are the best option imo.

10/10 op, major respect.

 

Also, verac's brassard or just bank every few kills, its faster than guthans.

It's great you know what you're talking about rustiod. Everything you've said is 100% accurate a true.

 

That being said...your a [bleep]ing [bleep] douchebag, and none of your advice will ever (or should ever) be taken seriously because of it.

disregard good advice because the giver is a douche

yes because sacreficing ~40 attack bonus+some strength is worth it to take advantage of a already defensively weak monster.

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

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).

Actually this. Peaches + Yip should be enough without pro melee. Tabs aren't too expensive either, but I think you should grab the spell itself if possible.
