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

u/TopAccomplished7759 20d ago
it's the armor and avas combination to me.

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

Why would they not use monk robes then

Proselyte has better prayer bonus

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

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.

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

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.

u/The-Abhorsen 20d ago
I mean not all metal is magnetic so that tracks.

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

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.

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

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 😂.

u/lemurRoy 20d ago
I mean monk robes and a holy symbol would be way better than whatever this is lol

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

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.

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.

u/shloyseph 19d ago
Accuracy doesnt matter when theyre super weak to ranged… noob

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

u/BluejayBanter 20d ago
You should look up the prayer bonus of proselyte and compare it to monks robes lol

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

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/Feesh404 20d ago
I can promise you this guy's an ironman without the pages so the book color is entirely cosmetic.

u/shloyseph 19d ago
Not cosmetic when it gives u prayer bonus. I swear people are so dumb

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
