most people who do barrows have enough money to buy expensive equipment. in my opinion, i prefer to use prayer instead of food because it leaves no room for mistake, plus, i can spare the extra $$

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

meh.. its an ok guide, not very original, perhaps you should make a guide on firemaking. thats pretty elementary--good luck!

Nice guide. I'm new to barrows and have been using about 4 doses per trip, so I'll have to try this.

Barrows guide...no prayer potions needed?

Nice. I dont have any of the required stats :oops: but I'll definitely be looking at this guide in a couple months (when I get monkfish).

perfect grammar is one thing, typing like a drugged monkey and enjoying it is another

AMEN!

Nice Guide :lol:

Rune pl8 + legs and blackdhide body + legs have the same crsuh defence. So it's better to put on full d'hide while fighting verac and torag (they use crush), so you get more mage bonus.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I think you are mixing two things up here. Dragon hides provide better mage DEF bonus than rune, but also give a lot more negative mage attack modifiers. Since you'll probably want to mage verac anyway, try to keep your mage attack bonus as high as possible.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Just in case, slayer dart is affected by armour and mage bonussen, it's just that the barrows brothers have such a low mage def that nearly every spell hits. Therefore, you should still care about your mage attack modifier.

It dosn't really matter what mage bonus you have when you are fighting the melee brothers because as you said yourself, their mage def is really bad + slayer dart isn't affected by it, only its accuracy.

LOOOL

 

 

 

You should check the magic att bonusses with dhide and full rune!

 

 

 

Full rune: -51 magic att bonus

 

 

 

full black d'hide: -25 magic att bonus

 

 

 

... Is it me, or is -25 better? :-#

 

 

 

Compare Rune platebody to Dragonhide Body (black)

 

 

 

--> better mage attack

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I said the thing about Verac, because he seems to hit less on d'hide (might also be luck), but I do have better mage attacks. So it either having 26 less crush defence or having 26 less magic attack bonus.

if you use crystal bow you can long range karil in tunnel

I think black dhide would be good on verac instead of rune because they almost have the same def stats and the d hide has less negitve magic bouns then rune, therefor you will get around the same def, but with more attack bouns

???

 

 

 

That's not true!

 

 

 

Dhide body: -15 mage att, +60 crush def

 

 

 

Dhide legs: -10 mage att, +33 crush def

 

 

 

Total: -25 mage att, +93 crush def

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Rune pl8: -30 mage att, +72 crush def

 

 

 

Rune legs: -21 mage att, +47 crush def

 

 

 

Total: -51 mage att, +119 crush def

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you use dhide, you'll get 26 mage att more (=51-25). If you use Rune, you'll have 26 more crush defence (=119-93).

 

 

 

So, it's either way you like it, it doesn't matter...

Don't argue with a item researcher. :P

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Actualy, you should, the first time I checked, I looked at the crush ATT (see other post) instead of the DEF :oops: ...

Oh...well...errr...you shouldn't argue with item researchers excluding de_lille_d

HEY! Just because I make 1 mistake that, doesn't mean everything I say is wrong :shame: ! I was just saying you should check for yourself instead of just assuming something is true when someone says it is.

 

 

 

Anyway, I corrected myself ... (check 3 posts back)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ps: How fast should you normally get an item? I have only got 1, but that was a long time ago.

  • Author

I was joking :-s

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And i get a item every maybe 30 runs on average(note i said average :P sometimes if i get lucky i get them every like 5 runs).

i do barrow with fire blast lol

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

no pray \'

You made me sell my santa and buy planks for 67 con so I could do barrows using this method :XD: And you made me want to train combat and slayer. :shame:

They finally got it right.

Seems to be a decent guide, I'd still prefer using pray pots though...
