I don't like using Barrows (or similar) for things like combat mini games cause usually I don't think it's worth it and don't like having to pay out as time flies when doing them, but my only other option is rune legs. Is it worth getting dragon legs or is there another option that would be worthwhile.

Also, not rich enough for tassets.

In a word: No.

 

Side-note barrows is easily usable in mini-games it does last 15 hours of combat afterall, which assuming you only play ~5 hours a day max and then factor in that you are not in combat all the time is gonna leave you with 4+ days between repairs.

Even so whatever angle you look at it, you are still getting 15 hours same as you would outside a mini-game, plus whack an armour repair stand in you're poh and your smithing level eats away at the cost up to a 50%(?) reduction at lvl 99

Agreed with Sy except for one point. You could get dragon plateskirt for cheap and get same stats as dragon legs. That would be my suggestion if you want to upgrade from rune but cant afford much.

True but it's still debatable in the worth of upgrading to dragon as the stat changes are so minor.
