if you die there, you do lose money and item if you carry any.

Hacked 10 years old account, permamently quit if Jagex doesn't return items.

without diein, i ment just rewards wise if i get no barrows items would the runes still cover the cost?

The runes would prolly cover cost...considering if you use slayer dart, its ussually payed for plus other cost.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But i spose there is a chance that you could lose money...very unlikely though.

Well... they should but you won't make much of a profit if you plan to pray through all 6 brothers. There are loads of guides for barrows out there (I think the best I have seen is Leesters' - check the Archive of Wisdom), and they all tell how to avoid praying through the brothers. Manacit also did some awesome videos (that load instantly might I add) of every single mage method (the only acceptable way asides from Verac'ing). You also should use prayer potions instead of super restores... I think (depends on how significant the price difference is, but you really don't need to worry about restoring your stats at the barrows, the only skills that go down [agility, and your melee stats] are not worth bringing back up since the effect is marginal, and you don't use them a whole lot).

Unlikely, slayer dart would cover rune cost. Without dieing, there is a very slim chance of losing money. The pots and equipment usage fee (if any) is covered by the runes/bolts you get from chest, the barrow items from chest every while helps as well. The bloods, chaos, and racks cover the pots.

Don't forget holly wrench that gives u +1/+2 prayer points every dose. and I usually take 1 super restore for the agility cause after 2-3 rounds u can find yourself with agility like 20-30 and that slow u down alot (energy drain 2 fast).

The only times the reward doesn't cover the cost is if you're ancienting. Usually ancients have to rely on barrows items to profit, so a dry streak is devastating.

Depends. If you have to use a ton of prayer pots, yes. If not, and you use a lot of runes that the chest dosen't replenish, yes. If you use very little ppot and use slayer dart - or some other method that has little cost, like guthaning - no, you'll problaly gain a little from the runes and drops. But keep in mind, even though you make money, it isn't nearly the best moneymaker anymore. Not by a longshot.
