what is a good setup for a waterfiend task, 231 of them, I remember last time it taking like 5 trips to kill them.

Interestingly enough, Tip.it's main site guide is up to date, written by Quyneax/Enaid.

full slayer helm

chaotic maul/Saradomin sword/Zamorakian spear

soul wars cape

karil's top

karil's skirt

dragon boots

barrows gloves

onyx ring (i)/berserker ring (i)/(ring of wealth)

amulet of fury

 

Inventory:

Enhanced excalibur/other spec weapon

8-11 prayer potions (4)

slayer ring/enchanted gem

(4 sharks)

1 pouch and 1 summoned familiar (or 2 pouches). Either bunyip or unicorn stallion.

scrolls (~40 for bunyip, dunno unicorn)

 

Pray deflect range/protect from missiles

 

Too lazy to add links for inventory.

Incidentally - I've been using a void set (elite) instead of spending money on Karils.

I'm not sure how good Karils are - but if you have a bunyip, and you pray range - you can probably finish a task with the void top/robe

Just pray when your less them like 1/3 or so life left. I found that the prayer bonus is helpful (as opposed to just wearing bandos) and it lets you finish a task faster (by way of piety)

To add on to above post, try to conserve Prayer by only praying range at around 500 LP.

Its not adding if your post in in contradiction to something he said.

EDIT: Oh, sorry, I didn't see he mentioned at 1/3 HP.

Well on my other account, (74 att, 77 str, 73 def,) I just take dhide top (don't have much money left over from 88 herb :( ), karils skirt, sara sword etc and I just pray piety, no protects and ext set potted and just use monks to heal. Bird full of food 6 ppots and 6 monks in my inv and I last for 45 mins to 1hr.

 

Don't see why you need to prot range tbh.. just drains your pray rediculasly (sp?) fast.

Piety drains your prayer much faster than protection prayers.

Waterfiends attack 50% of the time with range, which is the more accurate of the two (at least, if you're wearing ranger armour). So protecting from range will save you at least 50% of the healing needed while it's activated.

I meant prot range drains your prayer really fast when used with piety... And you should 100% be using piety (or turnoil if you have the level for it)...

Plus it boosts your defence, hence the minimal eating needed. If I'm not having to use EE/buny or pony/SS then higher leveled people such as the op won't need prot range at all, since he's basically maxed with 91 summoning.

 

And they usually attack me more with mage anyway, so whatever...
