Guthan's platebody



Guthan's platebody is melee armour worn in the body slot that is part of Guthan The Infested's set of barrows equipment. To wear Guthan's platebody, a player must have 70 Defence. It is currently tied with Torag's platebody and Dharok's platebody as being the strongest platebody in the game, however this one is cheaper, being around coins, while Torag's is   coins.

Being part of the Guthan's set, if Guthan's platebody is worn along with all of the other pieces of equipment in the set the player receives a special attack. Successful attacks have a chance of replenishing one Hitpoint for each damage the player deals. As with all Barrows equipment, this item cannot be made using the Smithing skill.

Despite Guthan's having more than average combat stats, it is mostly used by players to heal (and saves space that would have been used bringing food) and then they revert back to their regular melee armour. This method saves money and ultimately puts off having to repair the armour as regularly.

Repair
 * - Guthan's platebody is only tradable when undamaged or fully broken.

Trivia

 * Guthan's platebody was also used for scamming, much like the warspear. The scammer would have the Guthan platebody on a note. When the player offered items, money, etc., the scammer declined, traded, and offered a studded body instead, noted.
