Bandos gear

Featured Replies

should I get bcp and tassets, what advantage over torags does it have? Is now a good time to buy?

Bandos has the increased strength bonus, so if you're interested in hitting a bit higher, then it could be a possibility. Personally, if you have a lot of money to spend, I don't see why not, but if it takes up a large portion of your cash pile, then don't touch it.

I got about 150M plus I have enough herbs for bonus weekend, I have been saving my herbs from mtk from the last bonus weekend.

 

Is now a good time to buy bcp and tassets?

Yes, then definitely get Bandos, although some experts will say get maxed stats and Overloads before getting it.

Really? Cause as I recall it was you who was the one cussing me at base. Also, re-read what you just said: one 15 second delay (which is an exaggeration to begin with) ruins floor times? You are beyond ridiculous.

I will have overloads during bonus weekend, since I already have the pots. What is maxed stats? I am close to maxed melee.

I would say 99 all Melee, access to a Yak (but your summoning level works too), and 95 Prayer. Don't quote me on this though, as this is in my opinion. I'm sure an expert will tell you what is more accurate. :P

Do you have a fury and berzerker ring already? If you do, buy Bandos until you have enough money to sell it for turmoil.

of course I have a fury, but no zerker ring.

and to tack onto that, I have zero interest in mobilizing armies, so I am not likely ever to be able to imbue, which is what I havent bought a zerker, cause I have no intentions on ever imbueing it

thegame1431.png

Who's saying that if you get a Zerker ring you HAVE to imbue it? Just get it and not imbue it. :)

but is it worth it, when not imbueing it, makes it only half the value???

thegame1431.png

Alot of people have it un-imbued because of the time it takes to imbue it, so yes, it is still worth it.

It's also about 1/4 the price of Bandos for the same strength bonus. Buy it.

Max melee is actually not needed, if anything Bandos would speed up getting that.

 

If you are going to spend tons of money, you should do it in approximately this order: extremes (easy to get) > turmoil (better than extremes but costs a lot more) > overloads (good for bosshunting) > Bandos, Armadyl etc..

 

I'd put a unicorn ahead of all of these, and of course an iron titan/yak/steel titan is even better, but summoning isn't straight-up moneydumping.

I already have a unicorn and extremes, I cant get yak cause I dont have enough charms. and I have 1500 dragon bones, but dont know how to use an altar, so I am just saving them

This. How do people look at Bandos and zerker ring and decide Bandos is the one they want? Less defense than barrows, less str bonus than zerker, and more expensive than zerker.

Because it looks good and it's more new. Honestly, that's all there is to it. It's 'cool' to have bandos armour.

I'm not an efficienado.

No offense, but your opinion is [developmentally delayed]ed and you should feel bad for having it. This is the H&A forum, not the "hay guyz wat looks cool 2 wear ??!?!" forum. Regardless of your stance on efficiency, this forum is all about giving people advice on what's most EFFICIENT. You're welcome to make a fashion thread in GD, but don't spout [cabbage] here.

I don't think he was advocating the use of bandos armor > beserker armor.

He was just trying to justify why others thought it was a better idea.

Bandos is not just for "looks." Any serious slayer will want to raise $ for Bandos.

Sure, just, after they've already gotten a fury and zerker, and they'll sell it if they need the cash for herblore or prayer.

Tbh Barrows is just as good... And I have a 1.6b bank.

 

Maybe it's because I find Barrows Much better to hybrid in.

 

 

If you're going to train slayer or something, buy it, but if you're one of those idiots that just stands around in bank all doing nothing, stick to something else.

Come to my Clan chat (I'm there if I'm online) if you wish to borrow a Green H'ween mask, Blue H'ween Mask, Red H'ween Mask, or Santa for a reasonable price.

Bandos is unequivocally better than barrows in most PVM situations and all melee training situations.

 

Correcting you for everyone who doesn't know you're a troll.
