Revision as of 20:11, 12 June 2011

Third-age ranger armour is a set of Third-age armour for Rangers. To wield this armour the player needs at least 45 Defence and 65 Ranged. To obtain third age armour the player can either complete a Level 3 Treasure trail or trade with another player. However, due to its rarity, prices are extremely high and subject to major fluctuation.

As its examine option suggests, it is made from White dragonhide.

Compared to Black dragonhide armour, its ranged attack bonuses are the same with the exception of the coif, in which the stats are slightly higher. It also has higher defence bonuses for all stats apart from stab and slash. However it is several dozen times more expensive and many players who have the money to purchase it buy Armadyl armour which is slightly better and costs a lot less. However, Armadyl armour lowers melee attacking bonuses while Third-age does not. Therefore, if the player wanted to switch to a melee weapon they may without losing attack bonuses.

It was long thought that the chances of obtaining a piece of third-age armour was of about 1 in 10,000 (according to Paul Gower), however, it was recently confirmed that the odds are in the six figures [1].

Trivia

  • The examine info for Third-age ranger armour says it was made with white dragonhide, which suggests that sometime in the Third Age, white dragons existed.
  • Although it is very expensive, Third-age ranger armour can be considered the best non-degradable ranger armour with no negative melee attack bonuses.
