[edit] Fun

Fun is my main goal, that's the reason why I think that reaching level 99 is insane, spending so much time in just one task is definitely not fun and beyond my courage, but i guess that spending so much time just to Slay is also insane !

By the way, at level 76 you have just made 10% of the road to level 99, think of it before entering in a time consuming and deadly game !

Note : Recently i have reached 99 attack and strength...I'am very surprised,i never thought being so insane...The reason of this, is certainly due to my hard work in slaying, as i wanted to fight Abyssal demons !

[edit] Big Monsters

I wish i go and kill Runescape big monsters like :

If a wiki fellows wants to show me...

  • Blast furnace
  • Abyss
  • Grand exchange (created GE items, linked on item page...)

[edit] Quests

My runescape user name is "urssaf" with only one "f". Feel free to talk to me, I will help you if I am able to.

[edit] Barrows

I am a huge fan of barrows minigame, I like the loot and at first I liked the blood pumping effect when I had dharok in tunnel, by now as I use safe spot I am not scared any more...but I still like it !

So far, i have made a bit more than 900 trips...

[edit] Strategy

Most players are mainly using a slayer staff, I don't, I also use an iban staff depending of my strategy. At first I had no choice cause of my pitiful slayer level, by now, as I am slayer 87, I've tested both :
  • with high def I prefer the slayer staff cause I only need 2 prayer potion doses by trip and no food at all allowing me numerous trip without banking or telehome (generaly 7-8 trips).
  • with low def I prefer the iban's staff cause it is faster meaning less prayer pot (usualy 4 doses). I warmly recommend it's utilization to intermediate players...

The worst aspect of Iban's is its 120 charges...I have to recharge it every 5-6 barrows trips, which require a bit more than three minutes with a crystal!

Since level 84 magic, the difference between the two staffs is not so huge, according to my experience :

  • Below magic (round) 84, Iban is much faster
  • Above magic (round) 84, Slayer is less slower than previously...but still slower than Iban...

[edit] Reward

Even if money is not the main goal of a Barrows trip, I must admit that it is my favourite way to make money. In fact you don't find a lot of money in the chest, but a lot of runes like chaos, death or blood which you could sell. Statistically, if i sell all of the loot's runes, a Barrows run means a reward of 37.000 coins, see my own barrows page for details.

[edit] Barrows hunting trophies

I hope you will appreciate this scoreboard ! Have you noticed that i've never found Dharok's greataxe nor Verac's helmet ?

Detail Ahrim Dharok Guthan Karil Torag Verac
Helmet 1 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 0 x
Body 3 x 2 x 1 x 1 x 3 x 1 x
Legs 2 x 1 x 2 x 1 x 2 x 2 x
Weapon 2 x 0 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x

[edit] Barrows theory

A lot of players are dreaming of a martingale, I am one of them (lol)...remember this is just a theory ! =]

I have noticed something strange which leads me to a theory on barrows loot. When I begin to Barrows, the rate drop was an item every 18 trips, after 400 trips, it was an item every 40 trips...I believe that there is a link between what I am wearing and the loot...

Let me explain, at the beginning, I was barrowing with full rune and mystic then little by little, I've began to wear my loots. When i begin to think of this theory, I was barrowing with full Torag, full Ahrim and Karil's top...That's the main point of my theory, the more barrows items I am wearing, the less item I am finding.

To verify my theory, i have done a bit more than 100 runs wearing :

  • Full rune : Defence in tunnel
  • Mystic (top and skirt) : Better magic attack
  • Berseek helmet : Better magic attack
  • Dragon scimmy : Better ahrim, kharil and tunnel attack
  • Glory amulet : better attack and defence
  • Barrows gloves : better attack
  • Quest cape : better defence
  • dds p++ : fast attack
  • Iban's staff and slayer staff (mainly Iban)

I had great results with this, 8 items in 100 runs...and only 3 items with 100 runs high armour.

To get more evidences, I ve done 100 runs wearing :

  • Mystic (Top, skirt, hat)
  • Whip
  • Glory amulet
  • Barrows gloves
  • Quest cape
  • dds p++
  • unholy book
  • slayer staff
  • Iban's staff and slayer staff (mainly Iban)

As my defence was pretty low, the impact on "food" in tunnel was huge, i had to eat something like 8 to 10 monkfish by trip... But the result was even better than before, 13 items in 100 runs...Even if my last 35 runs were dry of items !!!

I have done 100 high armour trip wearing :

  • Full Guthan
  • Kharil (No crossbow)
  • whip
  • Glory,
  • Barrows gloves
  • Quest cape
  • dds p++
  • unholy book
  • Slayer staff

with 5 items drop.

[edit] Barrows final Results

Detail Mind Chaos Death Blood Gold Bolt Barrows Half Key Dragon Helm
100 Mystic + Rune 22.965 9.596 6.165 3.814 100.437 3.720 8 3 0
100 Mystic 27.692 9.380 8.064 3.885 93.800 2.937 13 0 1
100 Torag, ahrim, black d'hide 27.974 10.462 7.826 2.579 99.469 2.891 3 2 1
100 Guth + kharil 20.308 11.913 7.026 3.922 89.142 2.632 5 3 1

Results :

  • 200 trips low armour : 21 items
  • 200 trips high armour : 8 items

Isn't it obvious ? Wearing low armour seems to give 3 times more chances to get barrows drop.

Unfortunately, Gorillaz 20 is doing the same test with different results, up to now 2 items in 40 runs. I'am nervously waiting for his 100 lows trips results...

[edit] Time taken

As i always do statistical approach, here is the minimum time to do a barrows trip :

  • Fighting a Brother : 45 sec = 6 x 45 = 275 sec
  • Finding the chest : 2 min 30 sec = 150 sec
  • Running out of the closest room : 30 sec
  • Running out of the farest room : 1 min 45 sec = 105 sec

1 trip takes round 9 minutes

1 000 trips :

  • take 150 hours
  • take 6,25 days non-stop...
  • take 37,5 days playing 4 hours each day !!!
  • give at least 1 130 000 xp of hp (level 76)

The lowest player I saw running (and surviving) barrows was level 76 Combat.

A player which has done 1 000 trips must be at least level 78 HP combat round 90.

Refuel time from Dharok tumb :

  • Mort'ton's store takes 2 minutes 5
    • Running to morton store
    • Selling/buying noted stuffs
    • Walking back to Dharok's tumb
  • Edgeville's bank takes 3 minutes 15
    • Teleing to Edgeville using glory amulet
    • Running to bank
    • Getting items from bank
    • Teleing to home
    • Praying at chapel
    • Teleing to Canifis via Kharyll portal
    • Walking through swamp and running with ghast
    • walking to Dharok's tumb
  • Burgh the Rott takes
    • Running to Burgh the Rott's bank
    • Getting items from bank
    • Walking back to Dharok's tumb

If you are in the barrows tunnel, teleing to edgeville is round the same time than walking to mort'ton store. But doing this will save you a prayer potion, but you may lose 1 food in case of a successful ghast attack in the swamp.
