Progression Charts[edit | edit source]

  • A fighter torso gives the same strength bonus as a Bandos Chestplate but frees up 30m GP for other, better upgrades.
  • Melee legs are a low priority at raids. Meleeing in range or mage legs is often a better option, as it frees up space to bring more useful items.

Required Gear[edit | edit source]

See the progression chart or suggested setups for upgrades to these minimum requirements.
Ironmen are welcome to raid with lesser gear, just inform your team before the raid starts so they can accept or decline you.

  • Barrows gloves
  • Salve (ei)
  • God cape (i)
  • Fire cape
  • Dragon defender
  • Dragon sword
  • Trident of the swamp
  • Abyssal tentacle
  • Toxic blowpipe (Amethyst darts)
  • Dragon crossbow (dragon ruby bolts (e))
  • Occult necklace
  • Lightbearer
  • Amulet of fury
  • Bandos godsword
  • Fighter torso
  • Mystic robe top + bottom
  • Black d'hide body & chaps
500200

Raiding without these items or their respective upgrades requires explicit permission from everyone on your team — not just the host's.

  • You can use a Berserker ring, but we recommend Lightbearer.
  • You can use a Dragon warhammer, but we recommend a Bandos godsword.

It is highly advised that you obtain an Ava's assembler before raiding, as it is a considerable DPS boost.

Banned items:
🚫 Regular trident
🚫 Regular whip
🚫 Regular void

Restricted items:

  • Osmumten's Fang (may be used at Tekton, Vanguards, and at Vasa. Do not use it at Olm)

Required Levels[edit | edit source]

Minimum requirements

  • 75 Attack
  • 75 Strength
  • 70 Defence
  • 70 Prayer, with Piety unlocked
  • 75 Ranged
  • 78 Magic

Raiding without these stats requires explicit permission from everyone on your team, not just the host's. These requirements include limitations you set yourself, e.g. if your account build cannot go above 45 defence.

Recommended stats

  • 90 Magic
  • 90 Ranged
  • 90 Strength
  • 85 Attack
  • 80 Defence
  • 78 Herblore
  • 70 Farming

Room-specific Items[edit | edit source]

The following items are only needed in particular pre-Olm rooms. Do not bring them on raids without these bosses.

  • Vasa: A stab weapon - dragon sword or better
  • Shamans: Sanfew's serum, if you don't have a Serpentine helm
  • Guardians: A Dragon pickaxe
  • Mystics: Salve (ei)

Optional items:

  • Ice Demon: Tome of Fire and fire surge.
  • Muttadiles: Zamorak godsword and/or ice barrage, if your team is not chopping down the meat tree.

In general, investing GP into improving your stats will be a better investment than in gear.

Minimum Setup[edit | edit source]

  • If you have less than the Minimum Setup, you must ask permission from every member of your team before raiding.
  • Range and mage levels are far more important than gear.
  • Add a Rune Pouch instead of a brew with water strike (optional).
  • An anglerfish is recommended so that you can overheal and immediately equip 2h weapons if needed for the first room.
  • Once you have this setup, use the progression charts at the top of this channel to decide on your next upgrades.
  • You may substitute the BGS with a DWH, but a BGS is far more commonly the better option.
  • A Berserker ring (i) is allowed but Lightbearer is by far the better choice.

Rebuild Setups[edit | edit source]

1️⃣ Shadow rebuild (left)

  • The Shadow is better then the Twisted Bow for regular chambers.
  • Sell everything except core + ahrims + anc hat.
  • Buy Ancestral after scythe during progression.
  • Reminder that Range & Mage levels are far more important than gear.
  • You are strongly advised to have 99 Range, Mage & Strength at this point.
  • An anglerfish is recommended so that you can overheal and immediately equip 2h weapons if needed for the first room.
  • The purple potion is a Forgotten Brew, which works as both a restore and a stronger magic potion.

2️⃣ Shadow + Twisted bow rebuild (right)

  • Reminder that Range & Mage levels are far more important than gear.
  • You are strongly suggested to have 99 Range, Mage & Strength at this point.
  • The purple potion is a Forgotten Brew, which works as both a restore and a stronger magic potion.

CM Minimum Setup[edit | edit source]

  • The setup on the right is the slightly better of the variants for CMs.
  • For more advanced setups and info visit ⁠cm-adv-text-guide

Maximum Setup[edit | edit source]

  • ZCB + VW can be downgraded to Claws
  • Optionally bring 1 anglerfish when you bring a defender
  • In some rotations Saturated Heart is a good prepot
  • Fill your empty inventory slots with the required room specific items in the picture

We don't recommend raiding on a limited build due to the fact that you'll be missing out on a ton of DPS compared to a regular main account.
That being said, we have put together some general gear setups for common PKing builds.
These can be found in this gallery:

Please note that no one is obliged to accept you into their raid.
