m4tty Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 i just did 1 run at barrows, i never used to notice the faces in the crypts and it seemed it used to drain 5, now 10 when pray drains randomly in the crypts, also ive never got anything but runes coins and boltracks before and i got a half key. anyone else think jagex mightve made barrows abit harder but made the rewards more common? going back for another few runs now.

FrankyBrown Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 The faces show up on high detail-scared the crap out of me when changing to high from low then doing a barrows trip and seeing ahrims head appear :lol: But your prayer drains when the faces show up, always has.

slushee Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 i've noticed it's been draining even quicker since the prayer interface change leesters pointed it out also Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WolfhunterXZ Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 Drains 9 for me in crypts, by 12-14 in the tunnels.. But havn't noticed change in anything else really.

Leesters Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 Barrows drains your prayer depending on how many brothers you've killed. Killing 0 brothers - it drains 7 Killing 1 brother - it drains 8 Killing 2 brothers - it drains 9. And so on.... A circus in Runescape?? Oh my. REMEMBER RUNESCAPE KARMA!

Umega Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 My prayer usualy drains 10 for me. And I've never had a dragon med or half key yet. No longer playing Runescape, I caught the WoW bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
genju24 Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 Barrows drains your prayer depending on how many brothers you've killed. Killing 0 brothers - it drains 7 Killing 1 brother - it drains 8 Killing 2 brothers - it drains 9. And so on.... The thing is my highest drain is always in Dharok's tomb, which is my first stop. I always get a drain of 10 in there, most of the times twice. And the face doesn't even show up. In all other tombs and in the tunnels I only get drained when the face shows up, but in Dharok's it seems to work different. Current goals: Going for 80 80 80.Recent goals achieved: 70 70 70 done. Major Achievement: Fire Cape at 79 combat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madeinwales Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 Hey, My first post! I've always said that in barrows, prayer drains according to your prayer bonus. I used to take full rune + magic dart, and i'd use up to 4 doses a barrows run! But Then I took monks robes, which lowered the amount i was drained by from 13 to 8. That was with prayer bonus 19. I now wear veracs top, veracs skirt, berserker helm, ring of life, strength amulet, magic dart, whip, ddp++, climbing boots, barrows gloves, and i use no prayer potions a run. My prayer drains by 9 everytime a face appears. I never really noticed how much my prayer drains in tunnels because I don't use prayer in the tunnels. =P I was suprised when I realised I can now kill karil without prayer =) I've always thought it was down to your prayer bonus and / or level. And as most people have done: Barrow's items: Karil's leathertop (x2), Karil's leahterskirt, Dharok's legs (x2), Torag's platebody (x3), Dharok's platebody, Ahrim's robetop (x2), Ahrim's robeskirt, Verac's Helm, Karil's coif, Guthan's Chainskirt (x2), Guthan's warspear, Ahrim's staff. Dragon items: None. Other: LOTS OF HALF KEYS. Longest dry run: 7 runs. xD LA LA LA ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smapla Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 It drains 8 on the melee brothers (in the crypts) and 10 on the mage and ranger brothers (crypts). Don't know about the tunnels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tewas Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 Barrows drains your prayer depending on how many brothers you've killed. Killing 0 brothers - it drains 7 Killing 1 brother - it drains 8 Killing 2 brothers - it drains 9. And so on.... i think it's starting from 8, not 7. aldo prayer drain happens slightly before face show up. therefore if you about to get face and climb out from crypt, you will get drain, but no face. sometimes it's very anoying. 1500+ total 89 cmb; 1600+ total and under 93 cmb. 02/04/07 reached all skills 60+ under lvl 90 cmb. 07/19/07 reached all skills 70+ at lvl 93 cmb.Prayer is good for herbs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slushee Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 yea thats [bleep]ing redicoulous i just died against dharock because the faces sometimes decide not to show up i look at my prayer 12 left then finish him off with my last hit, SOME HOW i die when he doesn't even hit me. utter [cabbage] whatever screw barrows im back to merchanting i guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Hyde1218 Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 m4tty, the faces show up on high detail at all times. the only reason the faces do not seem to show up in dharok's crypt is because dharok's is usually the first stop for most people visiting the barrows, not because his crypt is "different." during the first brother the faces don't show up simply because the game hasn't loaded it yet. as for the half key, i just recently got one a few days ago, but i thought i had already read that you were able to get misc. rare items long before the prayer update. proud quest cape ownerhere's my first post on the TIF (scroll to the bottom)feel free to pm me, but do make sure that i know you're a Tip.It user (in other words, give me a HYT) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xevocm8velexx Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 You can only get the faces of those you have killed (for exaple, you can't get karils face if you have only killed dharok) that's why the faces don't show on the first crypt. Lamest attempt at a lure ever.No, Ive seen "selling easter egg 5m must be level 78 77 or 76 and meet at varrock bar unarmed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FastForce Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 I swear i see faces in the first crypt!!!!! Ill do a trip and edit this post. And about the prayer drain thing, leesters is right. The more brothers you kill, the more prayer gets drained. EDIT: Further to this, please note that the more brothers you kill, the more you will be 'haunted'. As you continue to spend time in the tombs and crypts, you will see the ghostly faces of brothers that you have killed. When these appear, your prayer is drained by a considerable amount. Hence, the more Barrows Brothers that you have killed, the more faces will appear and the quicker your prayer will go to 0.

I was once at the airport with my friends in California, had to go "potty" really bad, and just pissed my pants in the middle of the terminal.
