Barrows gp/h?

[tacobbromin3]

Hey i was wondering how much money per hour barrows is if ican do about 1 run every 10 mins.

[Leik]

Roughly 240k/hr at 6 runs/hour. However that's just the actual barrow's pieces, not including runes and racks. Barrows isn't exactly a great way to make money, even at maxed stats with top gear.

Is that with or without skipping torag and also with akrisae unlocked?

[tacobbromin3]

I dont have arkisae unlocked. I just do origional brothers

That was with Torag since I assume he hasn't done Rotm, based on his stats. :P

[tacobbromin3]

Yeahhh.. Rotm is on the really long term goals lol

When I did barrows runs over the weekend I was consistently getting 100k+ per trip from the runes alone, with the occasional bust of 40k chest value. If the rune drops were also doubled over the weekend, you should be getting half that, so I would guess around 400k per hour without barrows items.

 

Edit: Accidentally wrote per trip instead of per hour, my apologies.

This weekend with double drops I made about 10mil with like 4-5 hours or work. That was lucky with me getting double ahrims robe and skirt, and dharoks legs. The doubles runes and other drops accounted to 300-400k an hour or so. I can do 10-12 chest an hour depending on how much attention I am paying. All that being said, if it wasnt for the double drops Barrows wouldn't be that good of a money maker any more. Not like when spears when 5mil and I got 2 of them. Ahrims and Karils are about the only orginal brothers that items are worth anything. Its still fun to do though and the risk is minimal once you get it down.

So are there any other bosses that i could do that would make decent money? Or should i just go ahead and level up so i can do gwd bosses

Not without leveling up a lot more, gwd is probably the one you closest to that is decent for money

Your magic level really favours Barrows, so I'd say no. But if you have basic equipment I recommend working on your stats, at least to get all of them to 50 & 70s in all combats. Getting void would help a lot too.

[tacobbromin3]

So void really is worth it? I hear from some people it is and others say it isn't

It just depends on what you will be using it on and what your stats are

[tacobbromin3]

I'll probably use it to train ranged.

[Assassin1357]

I'll probably use it to train ranged.

 

Thats one of its most effective uses since you will most likely be using safespots. Its decent for knives or whatever until you can afford to chin. I wouldn't recommend using it on high def monsters

[Sinkhan]

I'll probably use it to train ranged.

 

It's a 10% accuracy boost and 20% boost to max hit so it's actually better than fsh on certain slayer tasks.

 

As far as how long it'll take, I assume you'll take roughly 3 mins per round (incl time to fill lander and start a round) and use the novice lander. That makes 40 commendations an hour and this rate translates to roughly 21 hours of grind for a full set.

 

If you account for random losses, rounds sometimes taking longer, and also perhaps learning conquest to get 1250 rating for deflector, I'd say 30 hours is a good estimate.

 

As for if it's actually worth it or not, mainly meaning will it actually save you time on your way to 99, I don't really have a good number for you.

[tacobbromin3]

hmmmm.. I'll have to think on that one. 30 hours is intimidating

[Sinkhan]

It certainly is but keep in mind that

 

1. With another helmet, you also have access to something that you can train melees with

2. You can train ranged within PC itself (albeit with at a 50% rate)

3. Void is also good for certain bosses

4. Getting it now is probably best because then you can make the most use out of it

 

I would also recommend conquest. Personally it's my favourite minigame in RS and if you genuinely enjoy it feels a lot less grindy. You also can't fail to earn commendations (so long as you play the sufficient number of turns and actions) because they're dependent on how much time you spend.

[tacobbromin3]

Okay okay. You convinced me :P haha. Thanks guys :)

Why in the world would you use the novice lander? Conquest would be more pts per hour if the novice boat is the only one you can use. Conquest is about 90 pts/hr while veteran boat maxes at around 120.
