A guide to ankous: one of runescape's best kept secrets.

Featured Replies

Gah! You beat me to my guide. Also add to your inventory 1 of each, blood, death, and law for easier rune pick up.

Happy to find I'm not the only one who eats glass.

Had these once for slayer. Just thinking how wonderful salve + black mask + another 120 of these would be... Not sure if the two bonuses would stat though.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

nope they dont stack :cry:

Barrows drops: guthan helm x1, torags hammers x1, karils top x1, ahrims staff x1

yeah they drop laws(4 piles of 2 in a row) often

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

btw who on earth said that ankous r not aimed at f2p?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

well of course u can kill them on f2p as well as u can kill on p2p

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

just bring full rune and salmon/trout and about 500 feathers if u want to last long.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

am i flaming or spamming :uhh:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So sorry if I'm an idiot, but why the feathers for f2p killing? And why not bring lobbies instead of salmon? Just because they don't hit that hard?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Anyways, good work on the guide :thumbsup:

If you can survive at all on trout/salmon, the key to any stronghold run is to carry feathers, fly fishing rod, plus axe and tinderbox if you don't want to be waiting / pleading for fires.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Then instead of banking on every run, you just fish up some more free food, only banking when you are scared to lose the loot if it all goes wrong (cordless mouse battery dies - eek!)

never thought of training on anokus, should be quite decent exp *reaches into random bag to get out whip, crystal shield, rune and a herring*

that quote owns all ^^ i wont steal tho,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

- nice , ill think about training there.

I always go 2 the red dot where theres a safe sport 4 ranging ankous, 4 me they giv me a lvl 3 every trip and i rack up sumthin like 200 bloods and 350 deaths. They giv u a total about 280xp per kill

there is a safe spot for them if your a ranger / mage. usawelly its just behind a corpse

There is no monster that drops clues more or less than any other. The drop of a clue is completely random. I once got 5 in one day(not kidding) then did not get any for 2 weeks.

Im P2P

98% of rs players have attempted a scam. If your one of the 2% who havent, copy this into your sig..

My only suggestion is to include a strategy for Rangers and Mages.

secret? where? its always crowed there... 99% of all 90+ know about it...

^^ click my sig for my lesser ranging guide ^^

jwrm22: 4816th > 99 cooking 100% f2p !1172 total! + 140mil in items.

i dont play anymore... i think rs is ruined

lol, getting my ranging up there right now, thanks for the tip. :D

Say what you mean and mean what you say because those that matter don't mind, and those that mind don't matter.

i tried to find some safespots there, but the ghosts just attacks me when i get to one. Anyway, im p2p and im going back to f2p. Is it empty in f2p worlds?

ty for keeping secrets ur koo.

 

 

 

guess i wont be getting 99 defense their like i did att an str since theirs mysteriously been a massive flood of lvl 80s.
