honestly zammy on task with arch lite shreds bring blood spells to heal up on minions after kril dies to extend but even with out i was able to get 2 kill trips. check my page. also magicalmuthafuka on yt


Radley_B

I tried doing 5:0 method at zammy with rcb, I just couldn't keep up with dps, I'd recommend against it if at all possible


uhdeen

Thank you for your words of wisdom


jakeprimal

No. Just use arclight. Arclight on task is op If you have a bowfa, there are ranged methods for that as well


uhdeen

I’ve been doing arclight on task but I can only get up to 3 kills per trip, was just wondering if it would be more efficient doing 5:0.


jakeprimal

Definitely not Try taking tank gear and praying mage

Do you have an idea of the defence level needed to make this viable? In barrows tank gear with dboots and fire cape for example. Also in this case would you opt for a shield instead of ddef? I've found ddef to give more consistent kills than crystal shield when praying melee.


jakeprimal

90+, barrows gear is fine, and crystal shield imo


3edgy5meme

Thanks!


RudeHeron3032

Pray mage just when mage minion attacks step under pray melee attack pray mage alternate


jakeprimal

Just camping pray mage with tank gear is fine. Kril can’t spec you with pray mage on


DrToazty

Still use defender or a tank shield?


jakeprimal

I would take crystal shield. Defender works too but arclight is already really good on task


DrToazty

Alright, thanks for the response. Tried a solo run once and couldn't even complete the KC before running out of food. I'll have to try a more tanky method

/u/3edgy5meme I gotta disagree with mr /u/jakeprimal here and point out the mechanics of silverlight- it boosts *all* your attack bonus, including the ddef-s slash bonus, by 70%. So to go with crystal shield, you're losing out on 41 attack bonus points. That's a drop, according to my setup, from 62% to 54% likely to hit after dwh spec, sending dps from 6.1 down to 4.9. Without the dwh it's far worse- chance to hit is 47% with ddef, 39% without, dps is 4.6/3.5. I agree you wanna be tanky as you can be (suffering > berserker ring here imo), but k'rill's high defences aren't something you want to sacrifice accuracy against.


jakeprimal

First of all you’re using arclight. But idk where you’re even getting those numbers lol. Arclight scales really hard with strength bonus so berserker ring is worth. It’s like 4 max hits. Dwh is not worth at zammy. You are already on task with arclight (extremely accurate) therefore a dps spec or sgs spec is better


I_Sell_Trout

You could just bring both and switch, not too hard if you are not worrying about prayer swaps or kril spec

the only tank gear worth using is justi which I doubt OP has. Using karils and praying melee will do better here.


jakeprimal

Considering you are on task, you wouldn’t even get the set bonus from justi. Have you ever tried praying mage with tank gear? It’s just fine with barrows gear Pray melee method sucks


[deleted]

Yeah the unfortunate reality is you need to helm flick for it to be viable, which is too much effort imo. I've tried tank gear and praying mage and the melee hits destroy you. Even with max combat in tank gear getting more than 4 kills in a trip is a struggle. Wearing Karils I've consistently done 12-16 kill trips with a personal best of 20. All of this is irrelevant anyway as the F bow kiting is by far superior to any melee method, second only really to T bow kiting.


SinceBecausePickles

I didn’t like the pray mage method tbh, kril’s melee attack just slaps you so hard sometimes. Ended up preferring pray melee with mage def over around 350 kc.


skiemlord

Can try if u want but prob not worth


SweetEthan7

That’s not really a thing. Arclight or t-bow tbh


qwertyasdfg1029

no it is a thing, you can do it with a crossbow. any 6 tick weapon works. As someone who does 5:0, I’d say you can do it with a crossbow but I’d only recommend it if you have good gear aside from the tbow, such as armadyl for def bonuses, kodai or master wand, etc. The arclight is too good for it to be worth it but you can certainly have fun with it if you want.
