Brett0wnz Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 Well, since I just came back to RuneScape, I kinda need to know what the best combat gear is nowadays. I'm talking about just general melee combat gear. Also, refer to my avatar pic on the left to see what I have right now and my stats on the bottom to see what I can currently get. (And no D'eering weps or quest requirement weps.) - 86,939th to 99 Woodcutting on July 10, 2010 (CHOPPED EUCALYPTUS TREES) - Achieved 99 Fletching on November 23, 2010 - Achieved 99 Fishing on November 2, 2011 - Achieved 99 Cooking on November 7, 2011 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinkhan Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 Glory -> Fury (~6.8m)Dragon boots -> Steadfast boots (~7.7m GE, no idea of street) If you don't have a fire cape, get that Aside from that, there isn't much else you can improve without doing quests, slaying to level 80, or dg'ing. 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...
Brett0wnz Posted October 8, 2011 Author Share Posted October 8, 2011 Glory -> Fury (~6.8m)Dragon boots -> Steadfast boots (~7.7m GE, no idea of street) If you don't have a fire cape, get that Aside from that, there isn't much else you can improve without doing quests, slaying to level 80, or dg'ing. I was thinking about a fury and I have a fire cape already. What's at 80 slayer that would be better? and which quests would I have to do to get what you would recommend? maybe ill actually do quests, at least ill have a goal set instead of grinding skills. And I have about 55m cash lying around, and am still in the process of getting 99 fish with rocktails, so I have more money coming in daily so cash shouldnt be a problem. - 86,939th to 99 Woodcutting on July 10, 2010 (CHOPPED EUCALYPTUS TREES) - Achieved 99 Fletching on November 23, 2010 - Achieved 99 Fishing on November 2, 2011 - Achieved 99 Cooking on November 7, 2011 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, you can simply bypass whip+vine and get the better alternative, the chaotic rapier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinkhan Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 Yes chaotic rapier is significantly better than the whip, w/ or w/o the vine. There are also a bunch of worthwhile dg rewards if you intend on ever skilling. If you don't them already, pick up some claws for speccing while training. Assess what you want to eventually do. If you have bossing on your mind, you'll definitely want to consider 88+ Summoning for uni95 prayer for turmoil/ss91+ herblore for exts/ovls Personally, I think prayer should be your primary goal since you seem to like to focus on melee, but getting summoning up to at least 68 will give you access to many useful familiars (terrorbird, war tort, and bunyip) 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...
Obtaurian Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 Best melee gear (in general) is: Torva helmTorva plateTorva legsBarrows glovesSteadfast bootsAmulet of furyBerserker (i)Completionist capeChaotic rapier / chaotic longsword / chaotic maulDragon defender To put it bluntly, [bleep] off.

jijilentosmi Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 If I had the money I'd replace the Bandos with Torva, but here is my melee setup. Slayer Helmet, Helm of NezFury, or GloryBandos Chestplate, or Fighter's Torso, or barrows armourBandos Tasset, or verac's skiirt(Barrows) GlovesChaotic Rapier(I don't have this yet personally, but I'm working towards it, for now I use the wined whip.)Fire CapeBersker's Ring(Onyx Ring(i) might be better, I'm not willing to invest the time though)Dragon Defender(Dragonfire Shield could be better for some situations)I'd probably use the Reverence Aura, it's up to you though. There could be something better, but this with Extremes is usually great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obtaurian Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 Onyx (i) is never better than a berserker (i) for meleeing. To put it bluntly, [bleep] off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinkhan Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 Onyx (i) is never better than a berserker (i) for meleeing. What about on extremely high defence monsters like mithrils? Or do other accuracy bonuses typically suffice? 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...
My_Eggs Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 Onyx (i) is never better than a berserker (i) for meleeing. What about on extremely high defence monsters like mithrils? Or do other accuracy bonuses typically suffice? I've killed about 310 mithrils in the last two days or so and they didn't seem to have too high of defence. I was using a glory and ring of wealth instead of fury and zerker ring (i) (using rapier, d def, overloads, and turm) and I seemed to hit about 60-70% of the time. Sure 310 kills isn't a huge sample size, but I'd still say miths don't have high enough defence to justify using an onyx (i) over a zerker (i). 99 HP, Attack, Strength, Defence, Summoning, Ranged, Herblore, Prayer, Agility, Magic, Slayer, Fletching, Fishing, Woodcutting, Mining, and Thieving. Jagex'd out of my untrimmed hp cape on 6/14/2011. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AHappySeeker Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 Sell Bandos + whip vine, get extremes. Unlock piety if you have not already done so. Do not slayer more until you have extremes. More preferably, do not slay more until you have extremes, turmoil and max str gear but that's not very reasonable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPMC Mate Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 I agree with everything above, except, I would still slay with Super Sets. 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AHappySeeker Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 Slaying with supers is timewaste. You could be doing it with exts/ovls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPMC Mate Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 Not everyone has the time to get extremes and ovls. You may, but you can't expect everyone to. Advice is given so the lcd can understand.

JPMC Mate Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 I don't care if my logic seems retarded to you. It's a fact not everyone has the time to get Extremes/Turm first before slaying. I'm sure the OP doesn't either. Really? Cause as I recall it was you who was the one cussing me at base.

homer205 Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 Laziness is no excuse. You should be able to get those items relatively quickly.Also, if you think Piety and Extremes don't help, think again. Say what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
