There you have it, jad death with a whip and halberd.


Advantages:

Here you don't need a crystal bow (saves 900k)
OR
Kharils bow + Bolt racks (saves a lot of bolt racks and time, because bolt racks are hard to obtain.
I used only 10 3/4 restore pot, which is not a lot.
Tztok-jad died in 3 minutes tops.
Healers die in 3 hits or less

Disadvantages:

Continued prayer to melee switch and back to the next attack



It's only easy if you have 90 attack 90 strength and 90 defence

Total jad soup made: 7 times

Total tries of making jad soup: 11 times

well your work is commendable, you'll find it is often easier for those who's crystal charges are down to 180k to range them, this means it is much harder to make mistakes, and therefore, will generally mean the caves are easier

I had a idea of doing it on melee. But I haven't got a chance to test it out for a long time.

Yes, melee is cheaper only if you manage to slip through the initial costs. 90 att/str/def takes longer than 70 range. Guthans with a whip was too expensive for me when I did it. You would also need to run around more. For some people, switching more prayers may be too much.

Nice, but it is only for higher leveled people as I can see...90 90 90, is atleast level 115+...so any advice for people 100-115?

Personally I'll have to disagree with your method; I don't call 'full Guthan, whip, Obsidian Shield and a Halberd' cheap.

I pay only 180K for my charges now. In truth, if you have enough money to drop on Guthan you can afford ten Crystal shields, pay the conversion cost and then pay the minimum cost for the bow. Not to mention that you can afford a lot more supplies.

But if it worked for you then it's not entirely impossible. But I have my doubts with trying to fight Jad with just melee.

Not to mention, crystal bows are the best bow without a doubt, plus cheaper. Pretty much like 2500 rune arrows, and 2500 rune arrows=1m, and Crystal is 900k. So, starting out, it's already cheaper, and it just keeps getting better.

Crystal bow is slower, Rune arrows can be picked up again.

Meh, forgot about that. Crystal actually becomes cheaper at ~540 I guess if you estimate pickups. Crystal also hits ~2 points harder at full charge, and has higher range bonus until 2/10 though, so still far better.

Too bad my stats aren't that great, or else I'd try it.

Something else to think about. IMO, once the crystal gets below 5/10 it's bonus is really offset by it's slower speed and lack of special. Try it at duel arena, you'll see what I mean.

Er, Crystal is near useless pvp. It's a purely pve weapon :|
