GUIDE TO DOING BARROWS VIA VERAC


You might ask why Veracs? Simple the set effect that ignores defence and a really nice prayer bonus to go along


REQ TO ACTUALLY DOING BARROWS


OFC the Full Verac Set and about 1m for supplies etc


Quests needed to be done is Priest in Peril. Another quest is In Aid of The Myreque dont need it but it will save you time getting there

Construction Level of 50 for portal room assuming you have the kharyrll portal, saves alot of item

Melee stats up to 80+/ 70+ prayer for piety OR 95 prayer for turmoil


THE GEAR

This is what i use


you are able to make subsitutions on the gear on some part such as:

Cape: Fire Cape> Soul Wars Cape> Trimmed Skill Cape> Obby Cape

Amulet: Fury> Glory

Ring: Dragonstone ring (i)> Diamond ring (i)> zerker ring obv cause you want crush bonuses

Gloves: RFD Gloves> regen brace> combat brace


Substitutions for your invo

Dragon Claws> Dragon dagger

Extreme att and str potions> super att and str potions

Super prayer potions> Reg prayer potions


Now depending on ur stats will effect your invo. If you have less prayer your gonna need more prayer pots. If you have low defence then maybe ull need more sharks

Id just do a couple of trips and figure out a balance. The gear picture above is my balance i found for myself


GETTING TO THE BARROW BROTHERS

If you have in aid of myre done take the trap door behind the bar and go thro the save and go to the big door at the end of the tunnel. then take the red path i have drawn on the map

If you do not have the quest done take the black path follow it as i have drawn on the map

Beware of ghasts these little things attack you and maybe rot ur food which is bad and messes up ur trip

Once you get to the boat that the path i drawn. Take the boat and should take u closer to the barrow brothers

THE BARROW BROTHERS

Picture below shows which brother is in which hill



The Order To Kill them in Verac Style

If you incounter a question asking you to go down a tunnel say no until you have killed the rest of the brothers before going in. This will be explained alittle further in the guide. Just move along to the next brother

Dharok: ALWAYS prayer Melee + piety OR Turmoil vs him watch ur prayer while inside these chambers your prayer drops by 10 ever so often

Ahrims: Protect Magic + Piety OR Turmoil. This is where ur spec weapon comes into play. Spec him out with whatever you have Dragon Claws OR Dragon Dagger. Ahrims WILL lower ur melee stats which will make the chest trip a pain when fighting all the brothers. Watch ur prayer take doses when needed too

Karil: Protect Range + Piety OR Turmoil. If you have some spec left use it on him kill him quick he will lower your agility level making ur run drain faster

Veracs: Protect Melee + Piety OR Turmoil. He does he thro prayer but not always so i always protect melee from him. Watch your hp tho he CAN combo you pretty hard

Torag: Simple if u have some prayer left id advise to use Piety or Turmoil he has the most defence out of all of them but hey you got full verac to knock thro it

Guthan: Again u have some prayer left Piety or Turmoil. His set effect is pretty annoying cause he can heal whatever he specs on you.


TO THE BARROW CHEST AND TUNNEL

Once you have killed 5 of the brothers you go back to the one that said Hey theres a tunnel here you want to go down? Yes you go down it.

Heres a map of what the tunnels look like

Inside the tunnel the brother you didnt fight can pop up once you go thro a door. Whoever he is just do what i said when listing the brothers. Pay really close attention to ur prayer it drops 20 points every so often instead of 10


Answer to the puzzles are here

http://www.tip.it/runescape/?page=barrows_puzzles.htm



There are various monsters you would encounter while you are in the dungeon, here is a list of them:


Crypt rat
Bloodworm
Giant crypt rat
Crypt spider
Giant crypt spider
Skeleton

You kill these for Kill Count to get different items besides the barrow item itself


0-1 Mind Rune, Chaos Rune, Death Rune, Coins and Barrow pieces only
2+ Blood Rune are possible drops
3+ Bolt Racks are possible drops
5+ Half keys are rare possible drops
6+ Dragon Medium helms are rare possible drops

Once you made it to the just MAKE SURE U HAVE KILLED ALL 6 BROTHERS if not go thro the doors and try to get the last one to pop up

After you got you loot you have either 2 choices Telly out OR go climb back up the rope and repeat the steps again


SECRETS

This is one of my favorite ways of opening my chest. I like to keep my invo full so whatever barrow item i got lays on the floor. This is the ONLY way to see a barrows item laying on the floor unbroken. That why i like it. My goal is to have pictures of every item on the ground.


Ending. Thanks to some of the pictures from tip.it. I hope i helped anyone who was really interested in doing barrows this way.

Comment etc. If anyones got questions pm me. if anything is wrong pm me.
