Best F2P Melee Armor?

Featured Replies

Would I be correct in assuming that this armor set is the best melee armor possible for f2p?

 

 

 

Head: Rune Full Helm*

 

Chest: Rune Platebody*

 

Legs: Rune Platelegs*

 

Shield: Rune Kiteshield*

 

Neck: Amulet of Power**

 

Gloves: Green D'hide Vambraces***

 

Boots: Fancy/Fighting Boots

 

Cape: Any (although I think yellow looks good with Rune Armor)

 

Arrows: Any****

 

Ring: Any****

 

 

 

*Or any trimmed armor, because they have the same stats, right?

 

 

 

**I think this gives a better bonus than Strength Ammy

 

 

 

***Do these help melee stats at all? I'm training ranged anyway so I'll have the option.

 

 

 

****These give no stat bonuses anyway.

yes, that's the best possible armor set in f2p.

 

 

 

for training though, i'd recommend you use:

 

 

 

rune large helmet

 

rune chainmail

 

dragon vambraces

 

dragon chaps

 

cape

 

power ammulet.

 

 

 

that will be better in ranging than the full rune will. of course if you're going to be hiding behind something, use dragonhide body with a coif.

Thanks for the tip.

 

 

 

I don't train melee and ranged at the same time, but I'll keep that in mind.

 

 

 

And I did forget to add in the cape. (And arrows and ring, but they don't give bonuses)

Yes. that is the best melee armor possible on F2P.

 

 

 

For non-safespot range training (although I feel this is an unnecessary and unacceptable way of training), I'd use Full Green D'Hide (instead of Rune Chain) with Rune Full Helm.

I am back.

i wouldnt bother with brining the arrows unless you plan on ranging and the ring will just add weight so you should never have any reason to bring it as rings are pretty much of no use to f2ps

[omg] who cares if its nerfed or fixed....

you people will argue over the color of a green apple if it was a topic on this fourm god.

well actually the ring wont add any weight because they dont weight 1kg

Perhaps rings weigh .5kg? I don't know. Anyway, if you're f2p, bringing a ring is absolutely pointless.

Cool.
