Well, I'm trying...

Hi guys,

 

After nearly a year hiatus, I have curiously started on my adventure again, but not without a few problems. I have no idea what the [bleep] i'm doing and I have no gear.

 

Basically I'm looking for an indepth guide to RS3 and the EOC, and am hoping someone here can point me in the correct direction.

Lucky for you, EoC has little depth :).

 

Use the highest level weapon you can (drygore, ascension, seismic at level 90, chaotics, royal crossbow at level 80). Level > style usually, so level 90 in any style beats all level 80 weapons on any target. For level 75 vs. level 80 weapons, try to avoid using the wrong style on high-level targets (don't melee strong mages if possible).

 

Ability-wise, check this.

Thanks for the help guys.

 

Could anyone explain to me the best gear? As in gloves, amulets....etc?

 

It depends on what you want to fight, although for amulets, there are Saradomin's Whisper for melee, Saradomin's Murmur for ranged, and Arcane Amulet from dungeoneering for magic.

 

Gloves, are all essentially just defence now. I believe only your top, bottom, shield, and weapon slot decides your accuracy. So if you are going to use magic, use a magical top/bottom/weapon (and shield unless dual wielding/two handing, which is preferable over the shield) and you can use your helmet/glove/boot spot for extra defence against whatever you are weak against for mobs that hit with 2-3 styles. (Of course, if fighting against a monster's weakness, just use a full set of the style you are attacking with.)

 

Though, there are still gloves/boots etc. Providing more defence than others.

 

Tokkul-zo is the best ring, for defensive purposes, 6th age circuit is a free ring that has nice crit bonus for all 3 styles of combat, and archer ring (i), seer's ring (i) and warrior ring (i) have the best crit bonus for their respective combat styles.

 

For gloves, there are automaton gloves. Pneumatic, tracking, and static (melee, ranged and magic respectively) for defensive purposes. I realize there are gloves that offer offensive bonuses, albeit small: Nex ones. Virtus gloves for magic, Torva for melee, Pernix for ranged.

 

Boots with defence are the ones from Glacors named Steadfast boots, glaiven boots, and ragefire boots. Offensive boots are Virtus/Torva/Pernix.

 

For capes, you have completionist cape that rules them all, Tokhaar-kal for melee (still worse than completionist I believe) A god cape from mage arena for magic, and Ava's Alerter for ranged.

 

 

Armour is usually either Torva/Virtus/Pernix for offence, and Tetsu/Sea Singer/Death Lotus for defence. But defensive armours are mostly not of any use, and if you buy them in G.E, it'll be versions of them that degrade into nothingness, and isn't really worth it.

 

 

If you want the defensive armours (Tetsu, Sea Singer, and Death Lotus) I suggest you check out Player owned Ports in Port Sarim. Might take several months before you get 1 full set though.

Just to add to the above, if you tend to only do slayer you can get away with using a GWD set (power) or a Barrows set (tank). Also, if you still have void, that set should be enough for slayer provided you have soul split. I also hear there really isn't a difference between Dom Tower and Automaton gloves, so if you would rather save money that way, go for it. Hybrid sets outside void for slayer have very little use thanks to -15 defense penalty they carry. DKs and Tormented demons are really the only place you'd use any hybrid set, so you might be better off just switching styles. However, if you really want you should do the BOL event to buy wrapiest gear as it is currently the highest tier hybrid set, and it comes with damage reduction too. Currently the boots/glove/top/bottom is available with the helm and cape coming later. If no for the top/bottom then you should get the gloves and boots if you tend to use something like barrows gloves or if you where hybrid pieces and only top/bottom for a combat class type.
