Barrows. When it hits 25, just repair it.

TT rewards: 2 ranger boots, Zamorak page 1 (2x), Guthix page 1, Ancient page 2

 

You must construct additional oak larders doors... I mean pylons

 

Barrows: 10. Total value~22.3 mil. Ahrim Robeskirt is currently the item I have received the most.

I hope you understand that barrows last for 10 hours of combat it does not just suddenly break. I assume you do but just clarifying. DO NOT buy the dragon platebody whatever you do it is a complete waste of money. Also what monster do you need this defence against? Because for most things you will only need barrows bottoms and a fighter torso for perfectly adequete defence.

Fighter Torso/Prossy Top and V Skirt is all you'll need. No need to get Dragon Armour.

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.

Fighter torso can be incredibly quick to get if you enjoy and are good at the minigame. Even the first one isn't that hard I would say my first took 4 hours if a BCP is 20mil I'd need to be earning 5mil and hour which I can just about do if I really try and you may well be able to earn much more. However it is not necessarily the case that everyone can earn the money for a BCP that fast. When I got my first torso I had never seen 20mil!

I've sent a 12k combat mission to have Aiel assassinated (poor bastard isn't even Pincers-tier difficulty).

Why do you want good defense against monters? Virtually no monster that you should be training on have high enough attack to warrant it and the ones that do should be prayed against. Get a verac's skirt and either a bandos chestplate or a prossy chestplate. Dragon should never be purchased outside of aesthetic purposes (and obviously the boots for the str bonus) and the only barrows set effect still not obsolete is veracs for very niche places.

Torag's has better stats and is considerably cheaper than Dragon Armour. Realistically Dragon Armour serves little purpose these days other than to show off. You will need to get 70 defence for Barrows Armour though. Verac's/Proselyte is another option if you're planning on praying in combat, although looking at your stats I'd say that's probably not on your priority list.

Get torso > never get 2-4 hours back, and you WILL replace it with bcp someday (torso just looks much crappier, no?).

Make money for bcp > take more time, increase bank value.

depends what you gonna be doing... slayer use slayer helmet, helm of niezkiot is quite handy for general purpose, as for shield use defender, dragond efender if you have access to it!

I like to think of the Dark Bow like a Rocket Propelled Grenade (RPG) - you get one shot and then you're screwed.

Another question:

what helm should i use and what shield ?

 

For the shield use a Rune or Dragon Defender. As for the helm if you can, get a Helm of Neitiznot which you get for completing the Fremennik Isles quest. When Slaying you should use a Black Mask or Full Slayer Helm.
