Barrows Weapons

Barrows Weapons (Members only)
Please note the special bonuses only happen if the user has the full armour and weaponary of the barrows. For example, for Verac's to hit through armour and pray you must have the skirt, brassard, helm and flail. If you have the weapons without the armour the weapons are not as powerful, as shown in the Dharok's and Verac's sets.
 * Torag's Hammers
 * Torag's Hammers of the Torag the Corrupted's set. The cheapest of the Barrows weapons, they are quite unspectacular. The bonus for the entire set is draining 20% run energy if succesful. They have a very high crush bonus, which should make them very useful against plated enemies, but they hit quite low. The Abyssal Whip (regarded by many as the best RuneScape weapon due to its high damage-per-minute count) hits higher, even though its Slash style is usually very weak against plated enemies. They are undoubtedly the runt of the Barrows litter, but some players use them as a badge of honour when they reach 70 attack and strength, but wearing them as a badge of honor also comes with some ridicule. As weapons go, they are too weak and innacurate to be feared like the Whip or Great Axe.


 * Guthan's Warspear
 * Guthan's Warspear is part of Guthan the Infested's Set. As one of one of the most desired weapons in RuneScape, the full Guthans' set has the ability to drain opponent's health and add it to the wielder's own, so if the wielder hits a 21 he or she will gain 21 at certain times. Because of this draining ability, players can train without any food for an extended amount of time. However, this weapon is at a disadvantage when it comes to training, as it has 3 "Controlled" attacks, and 1 "Defensive" attack, making attack and strength training nearly impossible.


 * Verac's Flail
 * Verac's Flail is part of Verac the Defiled's set. Its attacks are brutal and sometimes hit as if the opponent has no armour or prayer when equipped along with the rest of Verac's set. Unlike every other full set of melee armour, it uses a manica (dubbed a brassard in RuneScape) instead of a platebody. It is strong and is commonly used in both PvP and battling prayer-using monsters such as the Kalphite Queen, because of the prayer bonus it provides. (Different from that of other Barrows sets.)


 * Karil's Crossbow
 * The Karil's crossbow is incredibly fast and powerful. Its special effect is reducing the targets agility by 20%. It has the attack speed of a magic shortbow and its power rivals a Crystal Bow. However, unlike other crossbows, Karil's crossbow cannot use bolts. Instead, it utilises bolt racks, which may be obtained as a Barrows reward or purchased from other players or in Port Phasmatys. A distinct disadvantage of bolt racks is that, unlike arrows, they are not reusable; they vanish upon hitting the ground.


 * Ahrim's Staff
 * Ahrim's Staff is part of Ahrim the Blighted's set, it is useful both for magic casting and melee fighting. The passive ability of full Ahrim armour is 'Blighted Aura' which has a random chance of lowering the enemies strength, making it useful against melee players. However Ahrim's staff does not represent any form of runes. Its inability to auto-cast Ancient Magicks, the most powerful set of magical spells available to Members, combined with the equal magic attack bonus as an Ancient Staff, causes many players to disregard the 'Blighted Aura' set effect for the Ancient Staff and another wieldable shield, defender, or book to give additional stat bonuses that are negated when utilizing Ahrim's Staff.


 * Dharok's Greataxe
 * Dharok's Greataxe is easily the most preferred Barrows weapon. It is also the most powerful weapon in the game of RuneScape due to its extremly high hits; a player with 70+ strength (the requirements to wield the Great Axe are 70 Attack and Strength) wearing a range of power boosting items including the Dharok's set can hit 70+. With the right situation and equipment a player could theoretically hit a massive 80 damage in one blow, although due to the highly specific circumstances, the possibility of this happening is almost nil. The Greataxe offers the highest slash, crush and strength bonuses in Runescape and is considerably cheaper than the Whip. The ability of full Dharok is 'Wretched Strength', which increases the power of your hits as your HP lowers. If your current HP is 10% or less than your maximum, your strength is increased by 100%. However, some players prefer the Whip because it is faster, and it doesn't have to be repaired. Using this set, you can hit a maximum of 110+.
