ronnyuk Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 If you need one simple piece of advice when doing desert treasure it is this... use protect from Melee on all the 4 people you have to kill, the guides give far to much mis information, Desert treasure is a very easy quest as long as you have some nice simple information to start with. This is how you complete Desert treasure in a few steps Buy 30 Prayer pots Buy 10 Energy Pots Buy 12 restore Pots Buy 30 sharks I have over stated the amounts to make it easy Buy Full blue mystic Buy 3 Staffs Fire/Water/Earth Runes needed 300 each of the basic All Stone drop guys can be killed with magic, do not try to melee it's a waste of time. The only spell you need to worry about is Bolts, do not use anything else, just follow the guides to know what one to use, but its easy, the first two monsters use Earths then use fire and waters against the obvious Wear no armour or nothing when doing pyramid, it just adds weight, just take 5 prayer pots and 5 energy pots and boots of lightness then run like mad, I was lvl 34 agility and it took 4 attempts, I walked the bottom 2 levels but you should run as fast as you can, I think its about moving more than running, just keep moving dont stop to think, think while moving even if your going the wrong way. Most importent thing to remember is Prayer, as u have no armour, prayer melee protect all the way round, drinking energy and prayer pots as u move. Job done :) So to sum up, the guides are very helpfull but they got me killed loads and cost me tons of money in buying un-nessesary stuff, numerous people have asked me how to do this quest and they also said they died by following the guides. Just use melee protect on everything that you fight and wear full mystic all the time, if you cant afford mystic buy wizard robes and use mage on every guy, no melee no range nothing. Flame if you want but this will help ton's of people, sorry if this has been posted before, but I have read through about 10 pages and not seen nothing with this kind of advice. PS. the guides are essential and are extremely helpfull when doing this quest, but there is some things that need breaking down to basics. all spelling mistakes are intentional to keep you on your toes :)) Quit Runescape 10 jan 2007 - Playing again 2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thus Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 I think that last part was pretty useful As i have always said, "anything can be done with prayer and prayer pots" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stealthman8 Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 there are much better guides than this, check leesters archive 75/80 Hitpoints | 81/85 Strength | 1/1 Pray | 1/1 Defense [Make Me Rich!] | [Brutal Ownage] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronnyuk Posted April 9, 2006 Author Share Posted April 9, 2006 Like i said, it's not really a guide, just a sort of supplement to help those who cant be bothered to trawl through thousands of posts, just like I had too, and still I can't find where it say's to use melee prayer against the ice guy. all the guides show use protect from magic, and if you do this you will die very very quickly, he hits like 5 on magic and 20+ on melee. I would be interested to hear from anyone who also died by following the guides and protected from mage :) Quit Runescape 10 jan 2007 - Playing again 2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One little difference ;) i DID follow the guides :) I'm Finally 99 mage ^^ (and cooking...) :PSilver24-7 - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imaerehw14 Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 I think that last part was pretty useful As i have always said, "anything can be done with prayer and prayer pots" off topic: isnt there a boss battle where you cant use prayer in the new quest? ontopic: do you mage then while standing right next to them so they can mele you instead of using magic to attack you?
