Noob Q but?

Alternatively you could use ice spells to freeze the brothers and then simply sidestep them. Killing only seven things for KC will generally net you enough bloods and deaths that all you'll really be paying for is water rune usage. There isn't much of a reason to tank the brothers while killing them because of this.

 

EDIT: I should've said the point of my post is that you can better pick and choose your armor and worry less about defense for tanking. D'oh!

Don't get kc, its inefficient time spent

 

New forum rules. Read them here please: http://forum.tip.it/topic/292649-new-posting-guidelines/

 

Back on topic..

4 of the 6 brothers use melee (and have melee bonuses), so you will want to use the Magic attack style on the Salamander.

 

Since you will be using magic, your ideal armor would be magic offensive setup. Since you will be praying, you will have 100% protection and there is no need for tank gear at first.

 

For Ahrim and Karil you will need to use range and melee (respectivly) and may wish to bring D'hide and Melee armor to get defense against them. At the point you fight Ahrim and Karil your prayer will be empty, so you should focus on an offense bonus until your prayer runs out.

I found mage worked quite well on Karil, more so than ranged. It's been awhile since I've barrowed though, so I could be wrong.

That's true - Karil has a magic level of 0, knocking back his magic defense (since 1/4 of your magic defense is your magic level), but it also depends on the weapon you are using and your levels.

 

It is unclear what other weapons the OP is going to use, so I have to assume that he/she is going to use a salamander all the way though. In this case, you will want to use Range attack styles on Ahrim and Melee attack styles on Karil (although magic can be used on Karil as well - it's just not quite as effective depending on your setup).

 

I am unsure however if melee would be more effective than ranged on Ahrim while using a salamander (as I have never tried it). However, I will say that if you chose not to use a salamander, generally melee is more effective than ranged & magic on both Karil and Ahrim at maxed melee stats.

Actually, I think it's more like 3/4th of your defence being your magic level. More importantly, magic level and magic defence are multiplied, so if one is very low (level in this case) then your high armour bonus won't do as much.

What are you talking about? I'm following the rules perfectly fine.. I answered to the poster above me, because that is how the forum works, if you are answering to the post above you, you post like normal, if you answer to a post in the middle, you quote it, and finally, if you answer to the main topic, you state so.

My lame drops:
6 Effigys
1 D Med - 1 D Dagger
1 Verac's Helmet - 1 Guthan's Platebody
