artemis101 Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 From the videos I have seen you should only use barrage and no it is not good moeny it is all based on luck all staking is and def lvl does not matter in a mage box My a-log pic (which I'm too lazy to upload as you can just go look at it). We're too lazy to go find it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DefiantHeart Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 Staking is /never/ a good form of making money, unless you can somehow boost your win chances to be significantly above normal. Though if you're dead set on mage boxing, I can offer a little advice: 1) Learn how to abuse PID. 2) Get 99 defence and hp, it's true that Defence has significantly less impact when mage-boxing, but it still provides an edge.

Quyneax Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 You 'need' 99 hp to avoid fighting people with higher hp than you. Hiscores works too but some people have typical staker names that make it hard to look up stats. Spell-wise you have the following options:Storm of Armadyl: 110-270 hit, average 190. Also 1 level defence reduction per cast.Blood barrage: 0-290 hit + 25% healing, average 145 + 36.25 healing.Ice barrage: 0-300 hit, average 150. With staff on, the options become:Storm of Armadyl: 126 - 310, average 218. 1 speed faster than other spells.Blood barrage: 0-348 +25% healing, average 174 + 43.5 healing.Ice barrage: 0-360, average 180.Polypore staff: 0-355, average 177.5. Can be used with vengeance and disrupt shield. Since healing is pretty much equal to damage, blood barrage > ice barrage. Storm of Armadyl is still slightly better, much better with staff. Polypore might be nice with Livid Farm done but I have no info on that.

So your defence level should matter in a duel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muggiwhplar Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 Odds of 1 def 99 mage vs 99 def 99 mage are pretty much 50/50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
