Ancient equipment

Ancient equipment (also known as Nex equipment) refers to the unique drops of Nex: the three sets of armour (Torva, Pernix, Virtus) and the Zaryte bow. Each of the armour sets correspond to a specific combat style - Torva for melee, Pernix for ranged, and Virtus for magic - and comprises of 5 parts: helm, body, legs, gloves, and boots. All nex armour is tier 80 power armour, giving a damage bonus, but uniquely they also give a lifepoint bonus (the only three sets of power armour that do so). They require 80 Defence and 80 Constitution to wear.

All ancient equipment provides protection against the four main factions in the God Wars Dungeon: Saradomin, Zamorak, Bandos, and Armadyl. They do not protect against the Zarosian faction.

In addition, the weapons have the following repair costs:

Pernix equipment


Pernix armour is tier 80 ranged power armour, giving strong magic defence, average ranged defence and weak melee defence.

Virtus equipment

Zaryte bow


The zaryte bow is a tier 80 two-handed ranged weapon, dropped by Nex (it is also extremely rarely dropped by nihil). It requires 80 Ranged to equip. It does not use any ammo, providing its own instead, much like the crystal bow.
