barrow equipment

Featured Replies

Well I'd like to do a few barrows before returning to frosts/slayer, but I have some questions regarding equip:

 

 

I already own rapier/polypore staff korasi/eee + guthans body + verac skirt + glory + blessed spirit shield (and zammy book/drag def).

 

The plan is to mage all except ahriim/tunnels who I will be meleeing. Does EEE or korasi work better?

 

 

Yet I have around 15-20M "free", I was wondering on what I could spent this best on:

- bandos corpse plate to replace guthans body

- bandos tassets

- fury

 

Also I don't have spec restores/extreme magics, so maybe I should spent some cash on making those instead?

First they came to fishing

and I didn't speak out because I wasn't fishing

 

Then they came to the yews

and I didn't speak out because I didn't cut yews

 

Then they came for the ores

and I didn't speak out because I didn't collect ores

 

Then they came for me

and there was no one left to speak out for me.

Use void if you have it. Use a dds/claws on Ahrim. SS Verac, Akrisae, Guthan, and Ahrim. Idk if you can SS Dharok, and praying anything but range against Karil is a bad idea, especially in void. Melee Ahrim and Karil, Melee + PPS Akrisae, and PPS the others. Don't bother with kc. You should only be using 1 ppot per chest, max, and healing shouldn't be an issue. If you don't have SS, then use the appropriate prayer, and bring an eee. If you don't have void, you can just go in Ahrim's or Bandos. Use an arcane stream when maging, and a fury when meleeing.

Spec Restores and Extreme magics are strictly unnecessary, so unless you were going to get the levels for them anyway, I wouldn't get either just for Barrows.

 

Vecna skull is a nice substitution for Extreme magics though, free and only takes 1 inventory space.

Well I don't have void (only range helm). + I'm only considering doing this for a short time - so don't plan on getting the helm + rank for the last item. Neither do I have soulsplit, so that leaves me to EEE? Or food? Also is ahrims better than verac considering you dont'need magic offense?

 

 

Is dds better than korasi?

Honestly, the only equipment that matters is your weapon, and you're good there. You could go in bronze armor and there wouldn't be a huge difference. It's probably best to maximise strength bonus while keeping your magic around 0. Bandos + a staff is probably good enough, but I don't think that's in your budget, so I'd go with Ahrim's and switch to a bandos chestplate when you melee. DDS is probably better than Korasi's, since Ahrim has low slash def. A couple pieces of food might come in handy if things go sour.
