The Prayer Beast
I am doing a series on RS pures on my blog, and since more readers is better than fewer, you get to read it here too! I am going to edit these RS Blog articles to keep the posts at a more manageable word count, so if you want to see the whole article check out the RS Economist, but the important facts are all here.
The Prayer Beast
They are one of the most lethal killers out there, the G Maul Prayer Beast. Before the G Maul spec nerf, they were really lethal, but still they are pretty powerful, and are starting to make a come back.
Required Skills
- Str: 50
- Att: 50
- Def: 0
- Prayer: 31
Those are the minimums you will need to be a serious threat in PvP fighting. Minimums to wield the G Maul are 50 att and str, keep def at zero to minimize your combat lvl, and prayer at 31 for Ultimate Str.
Outfit:
- Iron Full
- Cape – 600gp
- Amulet of Strength
- Granite Maul – 130k
- Explorer’s Ring – Lumby Achievement Diaries
- Monk Robe Top – Prayer Guild (535gp from GE)
- Anti-Dragon shield – King of Lumby (289gp from the GE)
- Monk Robe Bottom – Prayer Guild (485 from the GE)
- Safety Gloves – Stronghold of Player Safety
- Fighting Boots – Stronghold of Security
Total outfit cost:
About 150k. If you want to spend the time, pick up the free stuff, but it is all pretty cheap.
Inventory:
PK food and Zammy Brews. At the cost of <250 per dose, they offer the str and att bonus of Super pots at 1/10 the price, and prayer bonus. They do have an HP and def penalty, but at 1 def, it doesn’t matter so gobble a fish to heal up after every shot.
Carry a rune scimmy. Twice as fast, and hits higher than a maul. Wound them, then pull out the maul and Quick Smash ‘em to death.
Turbo Tip:
It is easier to buy the materials for Zammy Brews and ask for an assist than it is to buy them.
Turbo from the RS Investor blog here posting again for the Runescape Blog with my second installment (Click here to read part one) in the series. Today I will focus on some of the lesser known aspects of potting for training. In the first section, I talked about the potions you should be using, and can probably make yourself. Here I will go over some of the ones that you might need help with.
Any player, regardless of how little money they have, should, at a minimum, always be using normal Strength and Super Attack potions while training any combat related skill (I will skip the making of potions, as I assume you already know how, you should be making all of the potions you use though). Super attack potions are actually cheaper than normal attack potions, so there is no reason to go with normal ones unless you are really broke, then attack mixes are the cheapest thing on the market. This goes for free players as well, in the case of strength potions, they are cheap and well worth it. This is the first of a 3 part series on the effective use of potions to decrease your training time by increasing your stats.
