Nex: The Full Arsenal?

Featured Replies

I'm serious about going to Nex within the near future.

What are ALL of the different equipments I'm going to need?

For example, I've seen people with Staff of Light in pictures. That's just not obvious, lol.

 

I can list that I know I will need...

Void Ranger Helm

Void Deflector

Void Elite Robe

Void Gloves

Armadyl Chestplate

Ranger Boots

Ava's Alerter

Onyx Ring (I)

Amulet of Fury

Chaotic Crossbow

Chaotic Maul

Dragon Claws

Ancient Ceremonial set

Staff of Light (apparently!)

Scroll of Rigour*

Ruby Bolts (E)

Even air is fired with deadly force from the Chaotic Crossbow. :shades:

Actually, when I heard people say that players can't outdamage the Blood Phase solo, I wondered why they didn't step up to the good stuff, Dragon Bolts (E).

I don't know what bolts people use there. I guess I can make up for that by saying that at least I've memorized the phases...

2dgucz6.png

Rapier, Nex gear, ely or div, unholy book, spec rests, sanfew serum

 

Ruby e is most likely the best bolt

Do people not use the Deflector set-up anymore?

2dgucz6.png

Don't use armadyl armor, I see a lot of people don't like that and only accept elite void on their teams. You also will want ely/divine/spectral spirit shield.

Come support my max total goal here.

 

Briobe122's 10-step guide to staking:

1. Get cleaned

2. Vow to never stake ever again! (very important)

3. welfare tds and get claws

4. kill glacors til i get boots

5. bandos ffa or more tds til i have around 50m

6. realize that it is far too hard to rebuild using steps 3, 4, and 5

7. give up the vow to never stake again

8. go back staking and make your bank back

9. if you failed at step #8, Go back to step #1

10. if you succeed at step #8, you will eventually feel the need to make money for rich people stuff, have a bad day of staking, then get cleaned anyways

Pain is just weakness leaving the body.

So... Deflector set-up is a no-go anymore? OR do I replace ACP with Karil's?

2dgucz6.png

different teams/clans have differing methods, if you want to go nex as much as possible you have to be prepared for all of them

Sorry to thread jack but im curious to this too :o maybe we can both learn from my questions (i dont want to fill H&A with more nex threads)

 

 

-Is Spectral better than a DFS for nex Because its attack bonuses > DFS's defensive bonuses?

 

-Diamond bolts along with Ruby Bolts? Or does the extra damage done by ruby bolts outweigh the fact that they damage you too.

 

 

Are there any Nex Hunting clans that would take me/him in and help us learn?

Zammy book > any shield thats not divine/ely/deflector

Levon.png Bladewing.png

 

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

 

THAT MAKES YOU A BETTER PERSON

err you go to nex with 84 range and 90 def?

Zammy book >any other shield that is not ely/div/deflector with void

99 range 99 def

Thanks Losing Games :P Just trolling Levon because hes an ass to me most times.

Okay guys it's basically like...

1. Get everything for the best Nex set-up possible that I can reasonably afford (this meaning bare minimum of supplies to get one drop)

2. Use that first drop money to buy many more supplies

3. Slowly upgrade my gear (I really want to go from ACP to Pernix Top, that's my biggest goal!)

 

Now someone please tell me what SOLs are for?

And do people use C Rapier at all? The Blood Phase, perhaps?

2dgucz6.png

  • Author

sols are for tanking on the last form - take off your chest and leg armors (this pulls her aggro on you), pray melee, and activate sol special

 

rapier is used on mages only.

Then... What is the C Maul for? :blink:

 

Don't worry, I'll get my stuff straight well before I try to join a team. At this point I am familiar with the phases, just not all the specifics...

2dgucz6.png

  • Author

c maul is for use on smoke, blood, ice, and curses phases if you are using curses for turmoil (instead of prayer for rigour)

Oh wow. Are you telling me that that's an option? Because Rigour is the last stone in my path, so to speak, at least if my other gear is acceptable.

 

Do people switch to Bandos Chestplate/Void Melee Helm if using the Deflector loadout with C Rapier? Do they switch to Void Elite Top/Void Melee Helm/C Maul? This is quite a lot of gear to take with me. I guess with a Yak it doesn't matter though.

 

Thank you for your answers so far. This is a side of you I haven't seen before!

2dgucz6.png

you still need chaotic crossbow, even if you are using c maul and turmoil

 

if you are using a void setup, you would do the following switches:

ranger helm <=> melee helm

armadyl chestplate <=> void top

ccb + deflector <=> chaotic maul

 

void setup has around 8 inv items dedicated to switch items

  • Author

What's absolutely terrific is that I have all of those things except Deflector. And, team preferences willing, I don't have to get Rigour anymore.

Thank you, this is very good news! :thumbsup:

2dgucz6.png

In larger teams it is more possible to simply void + claw two stages per kill, so you can probably join those with turmoil. In smaller teams you need some more defence/healing power and your specs matter less, so you use armadyl + ruby and you want the ranged accuracy of rigour (that's not a solid reasoning btw there's more to it, but I don't know that :P). On the shadow stage you can heal a bit with soul split as well.

I will still get it, it'll just be nice to Nex as soon as possible to get a respectable amount of supplies before I "really" get started... ;)
