kwimbob Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 They're all from the barrows. Barrows items stats are the best in the game (though the weapons aren't the fastest or most effective by themselves as weapons). All barrows items degrade fully after 15 hours of pure combat time, and you have to pay 350k to repair them if you're repairing the full set. The stats don't decrease with the degrading, but they're only tradeable fully fixed or fully broken, and they can't be equipped when fully broken. If any barrows pieces are ever dropped, they fully break. The armors, if you wear the full set (helm, body, legs, and weapon) have set effects. The set effects happen on random hits that you can't control, though they're usually fairly often. Guthan allows you to heal whatever damage you deal when it activates, giving you armor that eleminates the need for food. Verac allows you to hit through armor and prayer, and this allows you to fight other charactors easily, and also to fight the Kalphite Queen just wearing the verac set the entire time (verac also gives a good prayer bonus). Dharok's max hit rises insanely as your health lowers, almost doubling your max hit if you're really low on hp, so it provides really good training if you get down to like 5 hp with protect-from---- prayers on against monsters. Ahrim is mage armor and it has good stats, but not that good of a special effect. Torag is a cheap and the most defensive set by itself, but again has a bad special. Karil, the range armor, really isn't much better than black d hide, but does have slightly more mage def. Combat 116+; Total 1900+; All Hard Tasks; (Nearly) All quest points; (Nearly) All skills 60+; An aquatic moose ninja.Currently: Using 63 hunter to get some of those "Chins", then I'm going to range stuff down. Interruptions of agility when I feel like it, as well.And lucky enough to get 4 Dragon and 6 Barrow Drops.[hide]Kwimbob now looks exactly like me in real life except for hair color. Yes, this means I look exactly like the protagonist of that certain anime that my second character, Faye_V is also named after. Yes, I bought a jacket that also looks like his. No in real life I don't have a slain bear to sling over my shoulders. Yes, I'm that skinny even if I no-life it for years in basements. No, I can't shoot a gun. Yes, I can win any other strategic video game you have never played - because I probably have, ahahaha. And yes, I also have brown eyes, yet one of my eyes looks different from the other. And yes, I'm completely oblivious to the [real] world around me as I constantly engineer new solutions to daily problems in my head. When I get hungry, all that isn't food can wait. When I'm sleepy - nothing is of any priority in front of sleep. But at any other time, I never slow down. Never give up. Never Surrender.

gr33ncrack Posted May 13, 2006 Author Share Posted May 13, 2006 thanks alot man that helps me out alot, do you have to were a full "set" helm, plate, legs, and weapon to have there special effect to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xyrec Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 Yes, it has to be the full set(including the weapon, which are all 2 handed weapons) or they're just plain old armor or weapons. I think the repair cost is actually 330k for the full set and if you repair the items when they arn't fully broken, it charges you less in proportion to the damage. If they're barely damaged, they won't cost much to repair. If they're almost broken, they'll cost nearly 330k to repair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gr33ncrack Posted May 13, 2006 Author Share Posted May 13, 2006 alright thanks alot guys for the info, if there is anything else someone didnt mention please add it what are the prices of these sets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kwimbob Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 alright thanks alot guys for the info, if there is anything else someone didnt mention please add it what are the prices of these sets? Torag is like 2mil. Verac and Dharok are like 5. Guthan is like 11. I forgot to metion that the barrows crossbow, Karils crossbow, is actually pretty good. It uses bolt racks as ammo. Also, the staff and x-bow are 1-handed, but the rest are 2h as said before. The staff has the same stats as the mystic staff and such, and it only autocasts normal offensive spells.

RAHK Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 Bow is 2handed Ah, yeah it is, nvm, it's bigger than the other crossbows and all. So just ahrims staff is one handed. They are all two-handed. Just fyi to the poster: bolt racks don't fall on the ground like other range ammunition so don't expect a lot of xp on a few bolt racks.
