suffud Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 After having this discussion multiple times in the clan chat. I've decided to do a post on it to try and raise awareness of it. In OSRS the playerbase has a general hard on for +strength items. However +STR is not always best, not only does it sometimes not raise your max hit, but the equipment is usually overpriced. Obviously if you're a maxed player with a 100m+ bank to spend just on equipment go for full bandos,prims and torture for best in slot everything. However the average member of WG won't have that kind of financial capital so hopefully this will help. For example: Bandos tassets. As of writing this tassets cost 24.2m. Providing the following stats: I've noticed most players will choose to wear a Tasset/Fury combination costing currently 28m for both. The stats it gives together are: +86 Stab +78Slash +81 Crush +11 Magic +108 Range +10 In Stab,Slash,Crush Attack - 11 Magic +12 Range + 10 Strength +6 Prayer If however you wore a Verac Skirt + Torture Amulet it would cost you 12m 800k with the following stats: +15 Stab, Slash, Crush attack + 10 Strength + 6 Prayer + 85 Stab Defence. + 82 Slash + 83 Crush +0 Magic + 84 Ranged. Thats over half the price, for pretty much better stats in defence except for range defence. Obviously if you had torture and bandos the tassets is a different story. Onto the max hits: With the following gear, Super strength and piety you can max 47. Add in a amulet of torture for the extra attack and + Strength 2 it gives the same as tassets and its exactly the same max hit. Long story short. Bandos tassets are a waste of money unless your rich, get yourself a torture amulet instead! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
