Runescape Barrows Guide

This Barrows guide will inform of what I feel are the recommended stats, equipment, and recommended quests etc.

For stats I would say you should be at least level 70 with level 60 or higher defense and attack for strength at least 50. Range at least level 60+ and mage at a level that you can use death runes would be wonderful.

I would recommend that you bring Rune legs, plate, and kite if you don't have Rune armor then Dragon or Barrows armor (I will talk about latter on in this guide) or just addy. Then when you have the melee armor figured out you can work on your Mage armor, I would recommend full mystic possibly split bark if you have a low defense both of which cost about 200000 gold as of early April, 2006. Now for Ranged armor I would recommend that you don't bring full dragon hide just bring the body and the legs if you want. For a bow I would bring a Magic short or Crystal bow, there is only one person you will be fighting with Range. Now for the rest of the equipment I would say bring a few sharks and a lot of Prayer pots a Magical Elemental staff, Slayer staff, or ancient staff and the needed runes to cast at least 100 spells of your choice. To use ancients or magic dart you need 55 slayer and 55 mage I think. Now you are going to need a cape I would recommend an Obby cape, God cape, or Legends cape.

Ok what I bring to barrows. A SPADE I cannot stress enough how important it is to bring a spade if you don't bring one then you will have to go elsewhere. You cannot do barrows without a spade. Now I would bring full Mystic, Glory ammy, Black Dragon Hide body, Crystal bow with 1 or 2 charges remaining, 10000 gold, five or so unnoted sharks with 100-500 noted sharks and three more prayer pots then sharks, runes to do 500-1000 spells then just fill the rest of my slots with prayer pots. Just to let you all know, when I go to barrows I always do it for days at a time. This inventory setup will allow me to do it for one to two days. I personally don't bring Melee armor just because I know what I am doing and I can use the extra supplies more.

Quests needed and recommended for barrows. Need priest in peril, should get In search of Myreque (for faster way to barrows), Ghosts Ahoy for low level mages or if you are using regular spells, or if you are going to use ancients Desert Treasure (for easy teleportation spots) and Nature Spirit if you haven't done the Myreque quest. Shades of Mort'ton is one I would personally recommend for people who plan on doing this like I do, and that is for a day to a few days at a time.
