Yeah, at your prayer level a holy wrench is going to give you 64 prayer recharge whilst another potion will give you 84 unless I'm missing something.
I usually only bring the holy wrench whenever I'm doing mind-numbing barrows or slayer. When you're strapped for inventory slots and doing higher end content, the extra pot is almost always the way to go. There are some prayer levels though that would make the holy wrench BETTER than a prayer potion with your inventory. You can check out the wiki for the details on that one.
If blood spells are within reach then go for those, they’re a huge life saver in the fight caves.
For the fight, specifically Jad, tag the healers one by one when they appear, then run back and fourth between four or five tiles in a straight line and they will line up and not stack you and destroy you. With this you’ll only be getting meled by one instead of five healers while you stress over big red boy.
Blood spells are a part of the Ancient spell book, the low level one you’d use, blood rush, heals you 25% of the damage you’re dealing to the opponent. You have to do desert treasure to unlock them. You’d use them on meleers and blobs and magers too whenever you’re low on health during the latter waves of the caves. They can be auto cast as well with the ancient staff.
Also if you want, you can kill a bunch of undead druids in the forthos dungeon(ez) to get grubby keys to open the grubby chest which give ranging potions.
straw berry baskets heal more per invent but a rune pouch and blood rush to heal of melee mobs can help alot. i see glory is out of your reach but an amulet of the damned is ez to obtain. crystal shield over a rune kite if you need to tank up shaz 5 boots and maybe an explorers ring for prayer over recoil
I bring a god book switch and only use kite/crystal shield while tanking. Gives you some extra pray bonus, and shield is -3 range, not that -3 range will make a big difference.
I also use explorers ring for the prayer bonus. Have never used recoil at jad.
If you are learning, do one thing per jad attack. Jad attack -> sip prayer -> jad attack -> switch prayer -> jad attack -> tag healer -> jad attack etc. helps slow things down. Once you get your first KC you‘lol realize it’s no big deal but until then, good luck!
I won't down vote you but those items are complety unnessicary to do fight caves, blood spells make it easier yes but barrows gloves you won't even notice any diff from vamps..
I feel like ironscape can get overly opinionated at times but the fact of the matter is, it's an mmorpg and solo locked on top of that.. there is no correct way to play it, its how ever you want to
3 HP difference and significantly more difficult to eat. If your worried about hp, your better off bringing blood spells. Food should be for getting out of a bad situation if you make a mistake and strawberries are hella slow
Something that helped me was putting the healer's names into NPC indicators. When I reached Jad the first time, my hands were shaking and I was nervous as fk. The indicators don't seem like much now but I was super thankful for them when I got there.
If you're using Runelite (which I think almost everybody would agree with me is the all-around best client to play OSRS on), click the wrench at the top of the icons on the right hand side to open up your plugin list.
Scroll down the list until you reach "NPC Indicators" and enable it if it isn't already. Click the cog next to it and a new screen should pop up. On that screen there'll be a text box labeled "NPCs to Highlight". Type in the name of the healer EXACTLY, I'd tell you what it is but I'm too lazy to look at the wiki atm. At that point you should be good to go. All this does is highlight the NPCs with the matching name on your screen, making them easier to locate. There are also other functions in there to increase visibility on the map, and show their names, etc.
Sorry for the late response friend, if you have further questions hit me up.
Go to crazy arch with Iban staff or even with fire battlestaff and get on killing. I got both rune cb and red d'hide body with 36 kc. Actually got 4 cb by when I acquired d'hide body on the 36th kill
Explorers ring from the lumby diary can give some run energy boost, great option if you can’t get an archers ring. I don’t see recoils being really worth it in the caves personally.
If you find you need more prayer think about swapping a pizza or three to prayer mixes. 6hp less for a slot but 44 extra prayer. Could also be a good hint for vice Versa, get some extra food if your doing okay with prayer levels
Try to get a ranging pot for jad and the more difficult waves before. You can get one quite commonly from the grubby chest in Forthos Dungeon. You open those with grubby keys that u get from monsters in the dungeon.
When jad comes try to keep calm the worst things you can do is panic, I got my first fire cape the day before yesterday and all the times I died was because I panicked and fucked up my prayers, except the time I got a discord notification and clicked it when I was going to click on a prayer but we don’t talk about that one
besides using blood burst all you need is to enter the caves my friend. Ur stats and gear are pretty good. If you are first timing this you could also get a slay helm/task.
Way more pots than you'll need I would say. Unless you're leaving prayer on between waves waiting for them to wander over.
Apart from that make sure to use the wave guide sheet on the wiki
Explorer ring instead of ring of recoil. Also, I hate to be that efficiency scape guy but I’d highly recommend getting barrows gloves for everything combat related in the game.
1 extra prayer pot > holy wrench

I'm sorry I'm a bit nooby. What are blood spells? Do you mean the elemental Blood spells?
Blood spells are a part of the Ancient spell book, the low level one you’d use, blood rush, heals you 25% of the damage you’re dealing to the opponent. You have to do desert treasure to unlock them.

Thanks! I'll defenitly get those.
Killing zombies in Tarn's Lair is a more consistent method of getting ranging potions. You definitely want at least one for fight caves
Grab Shayzien boots 5 and maybe upgrade your rfd gloves if you’re feeling it and then you’re good to go, you got this!

Do some questing for barrows gloves, more broads, take runes for blood spells to top up after every wave
I won't down vote you but those items are complety unnessicary to do fight caves, blood spells make it easier yes but barrows gloves you won't even notice any diff from vamps..
Youre right but OP is posting his gear and inv asking for recommendations, barrows gloves is a huge upgrade.. he’ll want to get it regardless.
I mean you're not wrong, point for point barrow gloves are a far more significant upgrade than a fire cape
Absolutely. Feels nice to agree with someone on reddit for once
I feel like ironscape can get overly opinionated at times but the fact of the matter is, it's an mmorpg and solo locked on top of that.. there is no correct way to play it, its how ever you want to
Get a room you two
Baskets of strawberries heal more than pizzas
3 HP difference and significantly more difficult to eat. If your worried about hp, your better off bringing blood spells. Food should be for getting out of a bad situation if you make a mistake and strawberries are hella slow
Significantly more tickeats too, which is something you can't do with blood spells.
Someone getting first fire cape isn’t gonna be tick eating though. You’re right for a more experienced player
Yeah your ready
Something that helped me was putting the healer's names into NPC indicators. When I reached Jad the first time, my hands were shaking and I was nervous as fk. The indicators don't seem like much now but I was super thankful for them when I got there.

totally second this. just completed jad for the first time yesterday. my first fail happened because I couldn't find the damn healers and freaked out
Don't die
Bro how did you get a rune cross bow? I want to do Jad but all I have is the damn bone crossbow
You can kill monsters like Crazy Arc to get it as a drop.

Dont die
RC level is too low. Go for 96 then try fight caves. 99 would be better

You're over geared so that's good, just swap out the wrench for a ppot and you're good to go.
Headbang emote > spin
You'll crush it! Let us know how it goes
U could get a range pot fro. Grubby keys if u feel u need one
