warped terrorbird slayer assignment

[Ezee]

I just got a slayer assignment of 177 warped terrorbirds from Duradel. What armour and weapons should i take?

Try high defence melee barrows parts + a whip. Take a terrorbird with sharks.

Switch to Guthans and a whip if you take too much damage.

 

Pray against ranged.

ok, which barrows set is cheap?

Torags.

Guthan, Dharok, Torag's plates have the same stats. Guthan is usually cheapest.

Torag and Dharok legs have the same stats. Torag is usually cheaper.

Verac's skirt has slightly less ranged defence than either legs but a nice prayer bonus. It is usually more expensive.

 

You should obviously be using a black mask/slayer mask so the only barrows helm worth getting is Guthan's if you need it for healing.

how cheap?

[BloodAngel]

You want high melee and ranged defence (although you might end up using Protect from Melee anyway) so Torag's is a good option or Verac's if you want the prayer bonus. Earmuffs, Slayer Helm or Full Slayer Helm should limit their ranged damage, can't remember how much though.

As for weaponry, there are three types of terrorbirds each weak to a different attack style (Crush, Stab and Slash) so ideally you want to use a Zamorak Spear there, however if you don't have that then I guess something with two attack styles is good such as Korasi's Sword, Leaf Bladed Sword or Dragon Scim (at a push). Not sure how good a whip is there, probably manageable. Hope this helps!

The weaknesses are barely noticeable. Use a whip.

i always use my whip unless i need special slayer gear :thumbsup:

I used whip - verac skirt/prossy top. Defender etc, piety, prot range. I took quite a lot of damage, had to bring food. They are quite good to cannon also. Those were my first powerslaying task - treat them well :).
