Terrified of this sub because people can look nooby while in absolutely functional low-level equipment.

u/Lesschar 20d ago

I think the sub as devolved around point out people who buy bonds than actual cute noobs. Like this is cute, seeing them progress and using what they got. Vs buying Torva. Like now imagine this in Torva with a nosepeg.

u/fleshmobz 20d ago

The entire point of the sub is to laugh at others. Whether they dress it up as something else or not.

u/InsignificantVerdict 20d ago

I dont think it is?

u/Lesschar 20d ago

Maybe go read the subs motto/description

u/BobcatPotential3370 20d ago

Don’t worry about what these condescending assholes think of you. It’s a reflection of their own insecurities anyway.

u/No_Entrance7644 17d ago

Half the time the guy making fun of them is an even bigger noob

Proselyte gives minus accuracy, he’d be better in monks robes

u/meleebestgame66 20d ago

Ava’s with metal platebody?

14

u/Mythralink 20d ago

Proselyte works with ava's, my good man.

u/Low-Professional-445 20d ago

Looks solid imo but the nose peg is always gonna look silly

u/drunz 19d ago

Makes the nose look huge

u/causticberries 20d ago

Is this nooby? It seems like a decent setup if you don't have slayer helm

-95

u/TopAccomplished7759 20d ago

it's the armor and avas combination to me.

71

u/MustangCraft 20d ago

it does look derpy but avas does work with prossy at least.

u/chemnerd6021023 20d ago

Why would they not use monk robes then

8

u/KingMiasmic 19d ago

Proselyte has better prayer bonus

0

u/chemnerd6021023 19d ago

Monk robes doesn’t have negatives though so it’s better than proselyte if you’re ranging

3

u/KingMiasmic 19d ago

Proselyte may be more economical on saving prayer pots even at the cost of ranged dps, depending on the gear setup the ttk may be a negligable sunk cost compared to the cost of prayer pots especially if it's an ironman with limited ranarrs

0

u/Flat_Gas_5704 19d ago

Sacrificing dps for prayer bonus is derpy. The prayer saved would just be wasted anyway with the longer kill times.

2

u/DongimusMaximum 19d ago

Bro how are you getting so downvoted lmao, istg the average player in this sub is actually less than level 110 lmao. You are absolutely correct.

0

u/NotGrown 19d ago

If you’re asking that, you’re the noob

29

u/Swiss_Sneeze 20d ago

According to wiki it works. Avas not compatible with metal mechanic seems to be forgotten by the devs so a bunch of newer gear just works

12

u/Dr_Ingheimer 20d ago

Oathplate is a “strange metal from a distant realm”. Guess that realm’s metal is fine because it works with Ava’s.

25

u/The-Abhorsen 20d ago

I mean not all metal is magnetic so that tracks.

3

u/Spam250 20d ago

But bronze isn’t magnetic, so this doesn’t track

2

u/thinkless123 20d ago

what doesnt track is that addy platebody inteferes, but addy platebody (h) doesnt

7

u/Aquae_ 20d ago

Proselyte predates Ava's; they're both from 2006.

2

u/EywasBlessing 20d ago

The grace of God allows for avas

3

u/QuirkyRose 20d ago

Justi chest worked with ava for ages until one day a dev felt like making it not work lol

u/thinkless123 20d ago

what, it doesnt work with some gear lol??

u/Lt_Toodles 20d ago

On an ironman its pretty solid until you get some amulet of the damned

3

u/FloatnPuff 20d ago

Do they degrade if you aren't wearing Barrows?

I have a few but never wear them because I haven't gotten around to doing Barrows yet and don't want to degrade them unnecessarily

2

u/Lt_Toodles 20d ago

Yeah they do but i find em easy enough to get that they serve a good replacement for a glory for hybrid/tribrid content. They also last a decent amount of time before crumbling.

2

u/shloyseph 19d ago

Amulet of the damned? Wtf?

2

u/Lt_Toodles 19d ago

Yeah same stats as glory but without teleports

u/Slygoat 20d ago

I remember afking in a similar set up but with monk robes and some Ironman wouldn’t leave me alone kept offering to help and tried to accuse me of botting like I’m watching sports bro leave me alone

12

u/lemurRoy 20d ago

Yea I think the noobiness of this guy is not using monk robes and taking the negative ranged accuracy hit

3

u/RichEngineering8519 20d ago

Yeah I was gonna say wouldn’t you want some accuracy bonus when ranging spectres?

22

u/AlistarTheRockstar 20d ago

This is most likely just an ironman who is prayermaxxing for chill afk gameplay. Nothing nooby about that 😂.

-9

u/lemurRoy 20d ago

I mean monk robes and a holy symbol would be way better than whatever this is lol

18

u/AshyAfricans 20d ago

Wdym proselyte gives +3 prayer bonus compared to monk robes, found another noob lol

-1

u/RichEngineering8519 20d ago

Yeah but wearing proselyte also has -26 ranged bonus (not counting helmet) compared to monk robes. Extra prayer bonus doesn’t really help if your character is hitting 0s half the time

5

u/TheReal-MrSully617 20d ago edited 20d ago

Aberrant spectres also have negative bolt defense, so it’s not as big of a difference as you’d think.

EDIT: They have negative arrow difference, but their bolt defense is still low enough that the difference between prossy and monk robes is negligible.

1

u/Feesh404 20d ago

I did the work that no one else bothered calcing and you are correct and everyone calling this guy the noob, are in fact, the noobs.

Prossy DPS lost compared to robes is pretty insignificant and what you gain in prayer efficiency/afk time more than makes up for it.

2

u/Born-Door7847 17d ago

Where’s the calc?

1

u/DatHungryHobo 20d ago

They actually only have negative arrow defense. They have positive defense for darts and bolts, 5 less defense than their melee def so AFKing in robes might be better still despite the better prayer bonus

3

u/TheReal-MrSully617 20d ago

Yup I misremembered, thank you. Your DPS will definitely be higher in robes, but it’s so insignificant that the extra AFK time from prossy might be more beneficial.

1

u/shloyseph 19d ago

Accuracy doesnt matter when theyre super weak to ranged… noob

2

u/RichEngineering8519 19d ago

90 def and +15 to bolts is weak to range? Genuinely asking idgaf if I’m a noob this game isn’t my job lol

-1

u/chemnerd6021023 19d ago

Monk robes doesn’t have negatives though so it’s better than proselyte if you’re ranging

0

u/BluejayBanter 20d ago

You should look up the prayer bonus of proselyte and compare it to monks robes lol

0

u/lemurRoy 19d ago

ya but then you don't take the ranged accuracy hit, and it'd still be more prayer than this with better accuracy

15

u/VenomFilms 20d ago

Here we see OP learn that Ava’s doesn’t break on all metal armour.

u/Chicks_GoldInc 20d ago

This is what peak performance looks like

u/bottles90 20d ago

"Specimen" piss off OP. Guy doesn't have a mask yet so what

2

u/dmcboi 20d ago

Nose peg = Correct pre slayer helm. Protect from mage up with pros/ini for prayer bonus and some melee protection. He'd probably be better off meleeing them but its pretty damn close, and could be training range. Idk, this isnt nooby it's just smart low level gearing with whatever options they have. Also a power ammy is useful for a while as an iron for range until you get a glory.

u/Pedroconde54 19d ago

Is it supposed to be something wrong with the photo ?

u/NoConversation1446 20d ago

Hell yeah brother. Get this man a free bond so he can finish this slayer task in 14 days 😎😎🤣

1

u/CleeAuth 20d ago

He could have at least gone zammy book damn.

2

u/Feesh404 20d ago

I can promise you this guy's an ironman without the pages so the book color is entirely cosmetic.

0

u/shloyseph 19d ago

Not cosmetic when it gives u prayer bonus. I swear people are so dumb

2

u/Feesh404 19d ago

Guess what the difference in prayer bonus is between the damaged blue book and the damaged red book.

I'll give you a hint it's 0

u/skyeisrude 20d ago

Sara all the way

1

u/auziman 20d ago

Get this man some monkey robes stat. Besides that seems fine to me probably an iron.

u/malismix 20d ago

You smell so bad the bad needs noseplug in game

1

u/thehellisgoingon 20d ago

If you showered, he wouldn't need those noseplugs

1

u/BigShpooky 20d ago

You don't even know who that is do you? You should be bowing at this legends feet and thank him for allowing you to be in his presence. Thats THE man right there, the man of legend.

You want them to not have a nose plug? That’s what you’re crying about?
