~Introduction To Barrows~

Barrows is a Player Vs NPC minigame. You pitch yourself against the 6 Barrows Brother: Ahrim,Verac,Dharok,Karil,Guthan and Torag. These NPCs are very Dangerous and low levels should not come here.
You Must have Completed Priest In Peril, and have started Nature Spirit. Also In Aid Of Myreque quest helps as there is a shortcut.

~Reccommended Order Of Killing~

The Order i reccommend to kill the brothers is : First you kill Ahrims (Melee/Range) You will have spec back before you go for Karil's. So Ahrim's use spec bar (Wether meleeing or ranging) Then Dharok Because you should still have a hefty bit of prayer( Cause Ahrim is a noob ) After Dharok you should kill "Mr. I own all cause i hit through prayer" Verac . After owning verac. Go to Guthans Then Torags Then Karils ( You Should have quite a bit of spec back now ). If you get tunnel on a brother. Keep going through the list till you have killed them rest. Now The Tunnel is a 3x3 Grid with tunnels connecting corners. Your aim is to get into the middle room and get the reward. You must go through doors (some may be locked) Untill you get to a door with Puzzle, on this door solve th puzzle , then proceed through the 2 doors. Then open the chest and teleport out.

~Ahrim's The Blighted~

Now: Ahrim The Blighted Uses Fire Wave (Which Hits 20) And Uses Strength&Defence lowering spells. And Ahrim's special effect works through your prayer (Which Should be Protect From Mage) the special effect drains your strength also. Okay. My Tactic: Either bring Karils or protect mage. Either Dds/Whip or MSB(Mage Short Bow) with rune arrows. Shouldn't take very long till kill him.

~Verac's The Defiled~

Now: Verac The Defiled melees and hits up to 25 (In My Experience) His special effect can make his attacks hit through prayer (Protect From Melee). So don't rely on prayer always. Keep 30+ Health. Now you should mage with Earth Blast+ Or Fire Bolt with Chaos Gauntlets. I personally reccommend using Slayer Dart (55+ Mage and Slayer) while wearing Barrows armour to minimize his hits.

~Dharok's The Wretched~

Now: Dharok The Wretched melees and his special ability "Wretched Strength" Allows him to hit very high, at low health. So Never Ever! Take your prayer off, untill he is kissing your feet. Now Like Veracs, you mage. But you don't need armour as he can't hit through prayer. But Always keep your prayer high like 20+.

~Guthan's The Infested~

Now: Guthan The Infested melees and hits up to 25 (As i currently know) His special effect is healing when he hits on you. Which doesn't work if your protecting melee because he can't hit through prayer. Same as Dharoks just protect and Mage.

~Torag's The Corrupted~

Now: Torag The Corrupted melees and hits up to 25 (well you know by now it's a pattern ) His special effect drains your run energy. And doesn't work through prayer. So just keep praying and use same method as Guthans And Dharoks.

~Karil's The Tainted~

Now: Karil The Tainted ranges and hits up to 20 His special effect lowers your agility, which in the long run won't matter really. Just protect from missiles. Melee or Range Karils and just keep your prayer above 20+.

~The Rewards~

The Rewards from Barrows: You can get the barrows item Ie. Verac's Flail or Dharok's Helm Etc. You also get Mind,Death,Blood and Chaos runes. You can get Bolt Racks and coins as reward.
