Short Melee Guide to Barrows (80+ pray, 99 melees)

Featured Replies

I know theres a buncha guides to barrows already, but I'm bored :)

 

 

 

Meleeing all the bros is a cheap and efficient and profitable way to do the barrows.

 

 

 

Okay, first:

 

 

 

Have a house

 

Telehouse tabs

 

Lobs

 

Supers or regulars (i use regulars because it doesn't matter much)

 

Make sure In Aid Of Myrque is done.

 

Restore pot (for ahrims)

 

80+ Pray rec.

 

99+ Melee rec.

 

Whip

 

Rune defender

 

Beserker

 

Fury

 

Berserker Ring

 

Good Plate and Legs for melee defense

 

1 dose pray pot (just in case dharoks is in tomb)

 

DDS

 

Few energy Pots

 

 

 

Okay, get your inventory, take shortcut to barrows, and I would first pray against ahrims, use a restore pot, and pot up.

 

 

 

Then go to dharoks, pray.

 

 

 

Go to veracs and pray.

 

 

 

Go to kharils and kill him with your dds spec.

 

 

 

Go kill guthans and torags with your lobs.

 

 

 

You WILL have a lot of lobs leftoever, so every trip I've had has been successful.

 

 

 

 

 

Tele to house, get pray, go back to Kharyll and repeat.

 

 

 

 

 

SUPER TIP - If you're not feeling lazy, you can time your melee prayer vs. dharok, save prayer, and not lose any rounds of whippage.

Come to #tip-it on Swift IRC, if you're cool

Thats ok, cause that means if you pray against verac now he is still easier than torag and guthan (hitting u half as much). Know wut i mean jellybean?

1. people need to stop using annoying smilies

 

2. no need to criticize someone else's way of doing barrows

 

 

 

not a bad idea, too bad I can't stand running through the swamp over and over

i choose dds, whip, and defender because at 99 potted and praying brothers go down fast at 99 melee, way faster than veracs set. That is why such high prayer is useful for barrows.

rofl, jellybean :P

 

 

 

anyway, good guide, i have hte 99 flats, but only 74 pray :(

 

 

 

sounds like a fun way to barrow tho :P

So barrows is still profitable? Lots are saying it's not worth it anymore.

  • 3 weeks later...

ive been using this guide alot - very useful and cheap for those of us with 99 flats and 80+ pray

 

 

 

heres what i use per trip:

 

 

 

full verac set degrades slightly, karils top and bottom degrades slightly (use karils top and bottom instead of pray against ahrim, i kill ahrim last as well)

 

sup str and sup attack dose (1 each)

 

restore dose if ahrim does well

 

prayer pot/sup restore (sometimes im out of pray pot) dose incase dharok in crypt

 

1 house tele tablet

 

a few lobs

 

 

 

all together like less than 2k per trip unless i use a pray pot dose, in which case its like 5k?

 

 

 

EDIT:

 

 

 

oh ya, and what i do differently is:

 

 

 

full verac with karil top and bottom instead of armor suggested in beggining post

 

 

 

 

 

:3> i_D_r for this guide

wow....you've succesfully managed to make a guide which caters for about 0.1% of all people who do barrows...i'm sure this will come in handy..i mean yeah sure it might be a good guide but come on how many people in the whole game have those stats, and use tip.it and do barrows often? loads im sure :roll:

*giggles at the pissed off noob*

 

 

 

 

 

anyway, im sorry that i_D_r is trying to help people, whether its the mainstream rs community or an elite secter that have put much effort into their stats. whether it helps you or not, there are 5,759 people with 99 attack, 3,827 people with 99 def, 6,134 people with 99 strength. Most people get 99 def after attack and strength, or at least after attack.

 

 

 

therefor its safe to asume 3500+ people have 99 flats in runescape. probably 100+ of them use this forum, most likely 200+.

 

 

 

so your flaming a guide that helps MINIMUM 100 people? i havnt barrowed since last summer, and this guide got me back into it. so it doestn matter whether they're an active barrower already.

 

 

 

sorry that you are in the majority that don't really have a use for this topic, but many people who have trained their stats up high enough wouldnt mind a cheaper way than ancient magic to do the barrows.

 

 

 

in conclusion, you're a jealous idiot who wishes he had the stats to use this guide but you dont :thumbsup:

 

 

 

(take a tip from this smily ----> :-# )

I really hate it when people think the Brothers are called "Guthans/gunthans" or "dharoks/dharocks" and can't distinguish between

 

 

 

THEY DO NOT HAVE AN "S" ON THE END OF THEM!!! ARRRRGGGGHHHH O:)
