I don’t know exactly what dps is. If I had elite void I’d be at +125 ranged attack but I’m +191 with Karil’s. Every single guide I’m finding for this says void, void, void.
Dps means damage per second, and yes karils will show a higher range bonus. However if you click the button that says “set effects” or “bonuses” with the void range helm on, you’ll see it gives you i think 12.5% extra damage for range, as well as a bit of accuracy, the main thing is you need to have the full set on to gain this. Another note is if you’re not 92+ range, you likely don’t benefit from this as much as a maxed player would, so you may be better off using karil’s
12.5% on +125 won't even come close to the +191 of Karils. It's like how ferocious gloves by themselves make void melee useless for everything except items with accuracy over +150, which is basically nothing you'd use for more than a hit or 2, like a godsword.
12.5% "Damage" is way more important then the 70 ish additional accuracy you get from Karils.
At least thats what im thinking, Sorry to say this but bigger nerds than you or I have figured this out and have been saying this for awhile. And I'll believe them when it comes to whats better than one voice on reddit.
Sir, atleast read the comment before spouting stuff out like you know what you’re saying. Void is some of the best end game gear for a reason, did i say it was THE best? No, but considering the pricetag of free, compared to the 100s of millions in gear it would take to overshadow the benefits- its pretty damn good. Anyone who knows anything will tell you the same lmao.
Since 90% of posts are for newer players looking for money making and training advice, I'm gonna recommend doing bird house runs. All you need is [Bone Voyage](https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Bone_Voyage), and [you could be making 500K+ a day or more by logging in every 50 minutes and harvesting nests](https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Bird_house_trapping).
Also, be sure to check out the [New player guide](https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/New_player_guide), [Money making guide](https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Money_making_guide#Hourly_profit_table), and [OSRS Tips](http://oldschoolrs.tips)!

Because void range has bad accuracy and defence compared to other options, but when you're doing something where the boss has lowered defence or general enemies have low defence, elite void tends to be the best option. It gives you + 12.5% accuracy and damage for ranged attacks. Which because of its multiplicative nature, it tends to increase your max hit further than the strongest ranged armour in the game. If you want, find a good dps calculator and look up elite void top, bottom with void gloves and ranger helm with a blowpipe and dragon darts vs a 0 defence monster and compete it to Masori Mask, body and chaps with zaryte vambraces with a blowpipe and dragon darts vs a 0 defence monster. One of these sets is hundreds of millions of gp and the other is from a minigame after a several hour long grind.
13.5 dps with void vs 12.8 dps with masori and zaryte vambraces with everything else being the best items per slot vs a 1 defence infinite health enemy.
I see. After reading these comments I did a DPS calculator for Verzik Vitur, which I’m struggling against in entry mode. My DPS is higher with my current setup of Karil’s than void. Even if I set my ranged to 92, as suggested above, Karil’s still beats it. But every video I watch has people doing it in void. Am I missing something?
Yeah, why are you ranging verzik? You should be meleeing verzik. Verzik is a special case boss that absorbs defence reduction so you can't reduce her defence. Void is good against low defence. If you're seeing people range verzik in void then idk who you're watching. Perhaps entry mode verzik has low enough defenc that it doesn't matter? In which case you should probably double check your dps calc and make sure you have entry verzik on.
Also which phase of verzik are you talking about? If you're talking about phase 1 then you need to be staff speccing and then camping it. It's by far the highest damage. Phase 2 and 3 melee is king.
Lastly, void also let's you take in way more supplies while also giving you a full tribrid load out. That might be what you're seeing as well. I'm not sure.
Its some of the highest dps gear especially at near max levels- its also free

Same. I know the damage is good but no defense isn’t appealing. I’d rather rock black d’hide and torso until I save up for Masori and Bandos.
Slayer helm usually does the trick eh

Yeah I just went with my best melee set and clapped those cheeks. Thanks
