White equipment

White equipment or White Knight equipment is a group of weapons and armour that are member's only. As their name suggests, the equipment is the same equipment used by White Knights. White equipment, along with Black equipment, is a coloured form of Steel made by different forging techniques which slightly increases the defensive capability. These techniques produce equipment of equivalent strength. To wield White Knight equipment the player must have completed the Wanted! quest, and have at least 10 Attack to wield weapons, 10 Defence to wear armour, and 10 Magic to wield the magic staff. It is uncommon to see players wearing White equipment because all players who have completed Wanted! have already completed Recruitment Drive, which provides a superior set of armour, Initiate armour.

Information
To obtain White Knight equipment, a player can either buy items from Sir Vyvin in the Falador Castle or trade with another player as well as buying it on the Grand Exchange. Players wishing to purchase armour from Sir Vyvin must have the appropriate White Knight rank, as shown.

Knight Rankings

In order to increase your ranking and unlock equipment items, you must kill Black Knights. Black knights killed as a non-member character that has completed Wanted! still count toward the kill count. Each player begins credited with 100 kills at the rank of Novice. Your current ranking can be found in your Quest Journal under the Wanted! quest. Note that players that have begun While Guthix Sleeps can choose to slay the Elite Black Knights over regular Black Knights. Each one slain counts for 10 regular Black Knights slain. It is important to note that if you kill White Knights, your ranking will decrease. Each White Knight killed removes one Black Knight kill from a player's ranking.

Low Level Master Ranking Method
Below is a picture of a safe spot for killing Black Knights. Not only does it provide protection from damage, but they will also always respawn on the opposite side of the blockade, eliminating worry of attack from behind.



Having the master rank is one of the requirements needed to get a trimmed Completionist cape.

White equipment offers the same bonuses as black weapons and black armour, except for a +1 Prayer bonus which comes with all White Equipment. While White Knight equipment can be used to make prayer last longer, Initiate armour provides better prayer bonuses, and Proselyte armour provides even better bonuses.

Six pieces of the White Knight Armour (Full Helm, Platebody, Platelegs or Plateskirt, Gloves, Boots and Kiteshield) can be stored in a Player-owned house in the Armour case of their Costume Room. You must have all six pieces in your inventory before it can be stored.

Items Needed:

 * Full Prayer Gear
 * 10-15 Prayer Potions
 * Extreme Attack/Strength Potions
 * 4,000 Cannonballs + Cannon
 * Rapier (or another fast hitting weapon)
 * Bonecrusher (recommended)

Head down to Taverly dungeon with all the stated items. Go into the second room filled with black knights. Place your cannon 8 squares from the front of the northern entrance, and two squares west of the eastern pillar. Stand 1 square East and 2 squares South of the base of your cannon. You never leave this position.

Turn on Turomil and Auto Retaliation, and don't move. Let the cannon bring the knights to you. Click cannon and drink pots when needed, occasionally use soul split if needed.

This method is 750 kills an hour and is a lot easier than killing Elite Knights. It should only take 2 hours to obtain Master Rank.



Armour




Trivia

 * The White Full Helm has a red plume. The only other player-ownable helmets that have red plumes are the Zamorak Full Helm, and the Kandarin, Zamorak or dragon steel and rune heraldic helms.
 * The Arrav heraldic helm follows the same colour scheme as white equipment, except with a royal blue plume. Players can use this helm as a substitute for the White full helm, and look like one type of the white knights that wander Falador Castle.
 * The number of kills required to achieve each White Knight rank corresponds to each number in the Fibonacci Sequence multiplied by 100.
 * Although there is no White Crossbow, there are crossbows hanging on the wall in the archery store on the Void Knight Outpost that look like crossbows with white limbs.
 * In RuneScape Classic, White Knights wore steel armour.
 * Sir Amik Varze mentions that the armour can be rebought by the armoury for the same price it is sold; this used to be the case, but since the Personalised Shop Update, it is not, and is bought at a reduced price like other shops.
