Bandos equipment

Bandos armour is a full set of melee power armour and shield that requires 70 Defence to wear. The armour pieces are rare drops from General Graardor and his bodyguards in the God Wars Dungeon. Bandos armour is non-degradable, and it is the melee equivalent to Armadyl armour and the robes of subjugation, which are Ranged and Magic sets respectively. It is also the highest-level non-degradable melee armour in the game.

Because Bandos armour is strong, does not degrade, and raises the wearer's melee damage, it is in demand and considerably more expensive than Barrows equipment, which has higher defensive bonuses. Bandos armour is most often used for training combat and Slayer, and for fighting bosses at higher-levels.

This armour is categorized as power armour. Whilst wearing pieces of power armour, you will receive a damage boost as long as you're using a weapon of the same class. Bandos is a tier-70 melee-based armour, so, naturally, you'll need to use a melee weapon to receive the bonus. The damage boost that you receive is found by taking a percentage of the base weapon damage of a tier-70 main-handed weapon/spell/ammo of "Fastest" speed (672). Each piece of power armour that you wear gives you a higher percentage of this number, up to a maximum of 10%. The Boots and Gloves give 1% each, The Body gives 3.5%, The Legs give 2.5%, and Helmet gives 2%. Wearing an entire set of this power armour will give a 67.2 damage boost to your melee attacks.

Trivia

 * Upon release, the set only consisted of a chestplate, tassets, and boots. The other pieces were added on 5 September 2012.
 * Praying at the altar in General Graardor's chamber while wearing any piece of Bandos armour grants an extra 10 Prayer points per piece.
 * The appearance of Bandos armour (chestplate and tassets) has been updated three times, more than any other God Wars Dungeon armour.
 * Bandos armour (along with other God Wars Dungeon armour) can technically be classified as Third-age armour, because it should have been forged during that age according to the timeline of Gielinor.
 * Bandos armour received a major graphical update on 6 March 2012.
