TrytansWay Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 I am looking for the most efficient method to do barrows, and the requirements for it. Any info is appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sy_Accursed Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Basic method tht requires little effort:Slayer dart all brothers other than ahrim and AkrisaeAhrim you want to range.Akriases hope between range and melee depending on prayer. Ideally you do dharok and karil first with prayer then just tank the rest. Do ahrim last. For real quick runs you want branches of darkmeyer done for drakan's medallion to tele to burgh de rott and barrows (bank and do run) and home tabs to get out + grab prayer.Failing tht the 500 total level reward from temple trekking gives games neckalce to burgh de rott (then run to barrows)Failing that lvl 99 Zachory in burgh de rott ramble makes the tunnel behind canafis pub jump u str8 to mort'on which is used with canafis portal in house.Failing tht just canafis portal and RUNNNNNNNN Operation Gold Sparkles :: Chompy Kills :: Full Profound :: Champions :: Barbarian Notes :: Champions Tackle Box :: MA RewardsDragonkin Journals :: Ports Stories :: Elder Chronicles :: Boss Slayer :: Penance King :: Kal'gerion Titles :: Gold Statue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pulli23 Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 I'd just use black sallies.. Though there are also other methods such as using ice spells to free the brothers in spot First they came to fishingand I didn't speak out because I wasn't fishing Then they came to the yewsand I didn't speak out because I didn't cut yews Then they came for the oresand I didn't speak out because I didn't collect ores Then they came for meand there was no one left to speak out for me.

Troacctid Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Korasi's Sword spec with spec restore pots is also good on Akrisae, as it counts as magic damage.

Quyneax Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Best way to do Barrows: Storm of Armadyl, Armadyl battlestaff, arcane spirit shield, ragefire boots or steadfast boots, arcane stream necklace, barrows gloves, berserker ring (i), Ardougne cloak 3/4 or fire cape, helmet of Neitiznot, Ahrim's or Bandos (or both) top and legs. What you do is simple. Mage all brothers (equip Ahrim's), use claw specials on Akrisae (equip Bandos) to circumvent his prayers and leftover spec on Karil. Overload, turmoil while clawing, maybe leech mage on Ahrim. Deflect curses on Karil/Dharok if you feel like it, ss flashing works as well. Should be good for easy 4.5 minute runs with the medallion, maybe 4 minutes for 6 brothers (omit Torag).

Quyneax Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Q, can you please not suggest a method that requires about 150m in gear? >_<Replace arcane with an obsidian shield, use dragon/infinity boots, Verac's skirt + Guthan's plate for tank gear, and you got yourself a setup for about 40m. With a staff of light and ice barrage you have a 10m max setup, but that's not nearly as good as Storm of Armadyl and will certainly require a melee switch for Ahrim and Karil, meaning you'll rapier + ks spec Akrisae as well.

JohnTheCop Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 When i barrow i do the ancients to salamander sidesteping technique it works well along with having great staying power.

First they came to fishingand I didn't speak out because I wasn't fishing Then they came to the yewsand I didn't speak out because I didn't cut yews Then they came for the oresand I didn't speak out because I didn't collect ores Then they came for meand there was no one left to speak out for me.

Yeah new amulet means you can do a run home tab > prayer (> amulet to Burgh de rott for bank/recharge) > amulet to barrows.Brackets is the optional bit cause some methods you rarely need to bank and obv recharge is only once every 10 trips.

bedman Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 The fastest way would be to carry just prayers and overloads for 9 chests (or doesnt it use a charge when teleing to the surface?). Use amulet to tele back to the surface of barrows (saves time), and when one charge left, tele burg de rot, bank and tele to barrows. A Guide to Chinning in Ape atoll: up to 325kxp/h!

Atm teleing from within barrows eats a charge, but its supposed to be a bug that they said they'd fix going by the game update faq of tht week.

Powerfrog Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 Honestly barrows isn't really worth doing with current prices. I'm pretty sure you'd make more money/hour on average doing something like killing green dragons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firebird308 Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 Whatever equipment you choose, don't forget to have a RoW along for opening the chest. It'll improve the drops. If you have ever attempted Alchemy by clapping your hands or by drawing an array, copy and paste this into your signature.^^^At least I'm not the only crazy one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure you'd make more money/hour on average doing something like killing green dragons. Assuming you can beat the bots and be constantly killing them, which can be a hassle. You might be able to do it in the tunnels using hard hitting weps, but I'm not sure. The nice thing about barrows is that they have no competition and no bots to affect your rate of kills. Something to fill my sig with until I find a replacement.Also check out my blug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sinkhan Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 Yes basically. Not to mention that green drags are a lot more heavily botted since all you need are 50s in CB stats, and standard "noob gear" (granite plate, drag med, drag legs, drag scimmy/long) to do them. Barrows at least requires a few quests and the brothers are slightly more challenging. I don't know exactly how the bots work, but I'd think they get very few chests in per trip.
