Gear Recommendations

The Abyssal Cape is highly recommended to start with, as it significantly reduces your chance of death.

To fight Nex, aim for a gear setup with 205+ ranged attack and as high ranged defence as possible to reduce the cost of Saradomin brews and super restores. Equipping a Barbarian Assault arrow (from untradeable mystery boxes) in your ammo slot helps greatly with ranged attack bonus, allowing for tankier gear. You will receive a speed penalty if your ranged attack bonus is under 200.
