February 10, 201115 yr Hello TIF, I was wondering if i had the stats to solo mage rex? I suppose the best spell for me to use is Fire Surge correct??? I dont have SS/Turm/Ovls/Yak/Chaotics. I need a setup + Inventory provided what was previously stated.
February 10, 201115 yr I always find it funny to see these players with ridiculously nice stats asking about some basic things :P No offense. Basically it depends on what you can afford/have/etc. I use Guthans+SoL+Granite Shield. Cape can be a skill cape/god cape/SW Cape. Heal with guthans, bring a 2:1 Brew:Restore ratio with some super anti-poison potions. A turtle will last ya a while, bring 2 spare pouches as well. If you do not use a fury/glory, bring an Arcane Stream from Dungeoneering to increase your magick damage. Fire Surge is the fastest. I've used Ice blitz/barrage before but you may run into issues if you do freeze him. Slayer dart works as well..but ultimately is weaker=slower=waste of time. Other than that, look at the guide on Tip.It's main site and adjust from there. Once you get the feel of it you'll learn what setup is best for you. If this is your first time, ALWAYS PRAY FROM MAGE. You will learn Supreme's and Prime's range and its better to play safe than sorry. Spot any white dots, make sure you are praying because you do not want to die down there. EDIT: Also, it might be worthwhile to bring a unicorn+scrolls instead.
February 10, 201115 yr Unicorn+guthans should last you as long as your prayer potions last, if you decide to always pray mage (suggested).

EDIT: Also, it might be worthwhile to bring a unicorn+scrolls instead. It is kinda funny, i've only been to dk's one time and that ended up really bad with only 1 rex kill before i got piled by supreme and prime. At that time though i was low mage and melee's/hp with no experience. I have guthan's and a SOL to use and i can easily get a g shield if needed. I planned to use Fire Surge and im looking over the tip.it dk's guide right now, Thank you for the advice :) I wasnt sure if i should go with Tort then summon uni afterwords or what. Is there any replacement for brews:Rests? im pretty bad at remembering to restore after 3/4 brew sips lol

If you have something with better range defense than granite, take that instead.
February 11, 201115 yr Author Other than obby shield i dont have any other shields. Thats sounds good, i'll have to get all my stuff together then we can go =]
February 11, 201115 yr Other than obby shield i dont have any other shields. Thats sounds good, i'll have to get all my stuff together then we can go =] I have to run an errand in an hour and halfish so I won't be ready till roughly 2 hrs :( Obby shield is just as good, same stats but +5 str and no need to buy anything.
February 11, 201115 yr Author kk sounds like a plan :) Im still wondering tho if there is anything i can sub for brews & rests as im not very good at using them. atm this is my setup Guthans helmGuthans legsguthans topDragon bootsBarrows GlovesArdy Cloak 3 (dont have sw cape yet)Staff of LightObby shieldRing of Life (just until i get comfortable down there)

Heal with guthans and only use food if you must.
February 11, 201115 yr d boots have no ranged or magic defence so they are useless for solo maging use infinity or at least mystic How to Chin Nechyraels for fast XP and profit
February 11, 201115 yr Author @Soul, k i'll take a war tort with rocktails, any suggestions on my invo setup? should i take my ee with me? @Blade, atm i cant afford infinity so would s[bleep]y or blk mystic boots work?

Yes, an EE would be a free shark every 5 minutes+super def potion as well. You should bring enough anti-poison doses to last an hour or so, possibly more. A decent ratio of 2:1 for brews if you plan on using them at all. My invo alternates every trip because I have change setups every so often. The guide on tip.it should give a jist of what you're trying to get. EDIT: Mystic boots should work as well
