Runescape Reader's Digest Blog: What to wear for defense

Tuesday, March 17, 2009

Very informative article about various defensive outfits, everything from head to toes.

Anonymous said...: I like to play ranged and the armor choice is easy: Armadyl if you can afford it, otherwise use black Dragonhide. Things only get interesting if you use a crossbow or throwing knives and wonder what shield to use.

Most shields give a minus to ranged attack, but there are some exceptions. At high level the best ranger shields would be the Spirit Shield or one of its brethren. At mid levels God Books are a good choice (their range attack bonus is 0, +4, or +8, depending on the book). For low levels a Mirror Shield is good for a ranger; modest defense values, but no range attack penalty.; March 18, 2009 at 6:04 PM
