I still make a few mistakes, but for the most part I have the 6:0 method down. What would you change? Using rune darts in BP.

#

dump the mace, probably also anc bottom and cape, if you have occult carry that, rest looks fine but you can swap in some brews for emergencies

#

parasailer's drive has example setups

true lynx
#

I wish i had a bandos blessing or bracers

vapid field
#

oh then carry it, thats fine

#

I didnt find blowpipe worth bringing and seeing as your on ancients its not like the spec is all too relevant either

More potion less shark

#

I bring bp, don't really need it but specs during bandos are comfy

#

You can bin the house tabs and tele out with ring. You can also equip hilt + mace or sceptre instead of bow to get an extra slot. I like bp cuz I'd rather heal with scales than blood runes but up to you.

#

Blowpipe is totally worth it IMO
Specs are good and you're only using it on one to two minions anyway

#

You don't need those swaps at all

#

This is what I usually took

#

You can take fewer divines if you want but if you have gear that good you can definitely just last as long as you bring divines to match

#

Also if you're lazy you can camp Bandos bracers but I brought bgloves just to get extra DPS. Might as well squeeze as much out as you can

#

Occult useless, just do take-offs and it works every time. Augury if you're not accurate enough still

#

Stam is for room-resetting btw

shadow willow
#

Occult comfy

#

Comfy good

brave pagoda
#

You can do any number of things to make the trip more comfortable if you accept shorter trips

#

Learning how to do take-offs is a good skill tho so might as well practice in GWD

#

Ditto on flicking minions, etc.

#

Bandos and Zammy are safer/easier places to practice the skills for Kree. Feel like people say they hate Kree because they take too few brews or too few restores since their inv is filled with "things to make the trip comfortable" and then they get short trips

shadow willow
#

I mean

#

If the inventory space is costly

#

By all means take the bare minimum to barrage the minions to death in time

#

for Bandos

#

You want to be at a specific square at a specific time and it's a problem if you are not

#

So being able to kill minions with time to spare is useful

#

And inventory space isn't because the fuck are you using it for anyway

brave pagoda
#

More divines

#

I always kill minions with 15-20 seconds to spare, if not 30

shadow willow
#

I don't want to do more than an hour of Bandos at a time

#

but yes if you're on the 2h trip plan

#

Don't bring fluff switches

brave pagoda
#

3h ideally but yea 2h is a happy medium of "not too aids"

#

3h required being very careful

#

with 2h I dicked around and didn't even flick minions XD

shadow willow
#

I flick minions if it's convenient when the big man is dead

#

OOI what do you do if bowfa noodles and minions hit

#

I always find sitting in chance range really dicey

#

And eating in 6:0 is awful

brave pagoda
#

Ye what's wild is in that in max fbow gear you can legit just pipe down minions and 1t flick orb and heal back up fully with B2P + food drops
I flicked + barraged on like first 10 kills of trip to get the food and after that just chill

#

I never troll flicking if lower than 4 food in inv

#

So full effort below 4, lazy if above

#

At Zammy btw it's full effort every single kill because no B2P to fall back on

#

Which is exhausting

shadow willow
#

Yeah zammy is annoying

#

I'd be interested in having a task now to try it with tbow

#

But man

#

I just cba finishing my venenatis task

#

Wildy bosses need to go

brave pagoda
#

VW sucks I'm entertaining just skipping it too

#

Pretend it doesn't exist along with Nex and ride out CoX copium for claws

shadow willow
#

Well

#

I want to do nex

brave pagoda
#

*VW grind sucks

#

actual item is cracked

shadow willow
#

And it seems like best nex method is duo

brave pagoda
#

Ah lmao gl

#

Slave to the Artio

shadow willow
#

I mean

#

The bosses are whatever

#

But man

#

The PK ragging is just awful

brave pagoda
#

The PKers are what I'm talking about

#

Artio gets so many

shadow willow
#

🤷‍♂️

#

Fucking reddit

#

Sure let's vote yes on a 100% accuracy spec weapon

#

I'm sure this won't affect the pve meta

regal rune
#

b2p is enough healing

#

used thralls and eagle eye had bandos boots (not dhide) as my item

#

90% of trips finished on running out of pray

brave pagoda
#

But it should finish on running out of divine, not running out of pray

#

That's my point

#

You should be able to adjust the ratios as needed to stay as long as you want up to inv constraints on being potted

#

Prayer shouldn't be an issue at all

#

Especially with Eagle Eye. I had no trouble with Rigour

brave pagoda
#

Considering that it takes like 960+ kc for both fangs and serp

regal rune
#

Its just not necessary, its not speeding up your bandos kills bc youre not using it on the boss and the extra healing isnt needed so I dont recommend bringing it unless you find you take too much damage

#

I also cant imagine ending you trip when youre out of divines is worth it as its like 1.1dps and that time probably is lost getting kc

brave pagoda
#

I'm confused, the picture above is bringing 9 divines and getting the 3 hour trip every single time

#

How is that not worth it

#

It's just straight up better to get as long of a trip as possible assuming you're always potted

#

I was basically saying "you should adjust your pot ratio so that you get trips with more divines", not "bring fewer divines"

#

Also you can pipe spec on boss too, it's better than eating if you do it correctly

#

GeChallengeM shows this in his video

regal rune
#

and you shouldnt have to eat midkill anyway

brave pagoda
#

I'd end the trip because getting 25 goblin kc is probably faster than doing additional kills without being potted

#

Also to c2's point after 3 hours I'm exhausted anyway

#

That's 82-85 kills depending on how aggressive you are with room-resetting

3 minutes

#

if you're using runelite you can turn on ground item timers in that plugin

brave pagoda
#

Yeah it's extremely aids
Even if you buy an instance it's still 3 mins unlike kraken or other bosses

#

But it's worth if you wanna extend trips

#

There were points where I was juggling like 8 food

#

When it's like that what I do is just 1t flick minions and don't bother praying correctly on every one of them
(I prio ranged and rigour)

#

Saves prayer and you can get your HP back from the excess food

#

When you're up on prayer low on food, do the opposite -- alternate properly and don't take any damage

#

It's pretty miserable for the first two hours of the trip if you're doing 9 divines. Third hour is when you can finally relax a bit since you have a ton of inv space. This is when I recommend doing all the room resetting

#

Ofc as c2 said you can just say "fk this sht" and bring 3-5 divines and just relax the entire time if you're OK with banking more. Requires way less effort and skill but I think it's pretty cool to push the limits to keep things interesting

still hound
#

i usually take a stam pot as well tbh

shadow willow
#

Man

#

I am just don't wanna fight the item despawn timer

#

It isn't an interesting mechanic
