Barrows

​

Introduction

The Barrows Brothers dharokhead are mainly camped by high-level players in an effort to obtain the Graverobber title. The brothers are relatively weak, with the exception of Linza.

​

Useful Unlocks

⬥ Completing all Hard Morytania achievements:

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Doubles rune drops

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Allows you to bank loot directly from the chest

⬥ Completing all Easy Combat Mastery Achievements:

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Portals will permanently appear in corner & central rooms of the underground crypt

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎⬩ Teleporting via these portals circumvents the need to to solve puzzles or open doors

⬥ Bringing a Dragon/Barrows defender allows for additional defender components. Corrupted sigils can be dissasembled for undead components

​

The Fight

Suggested order for killing the brothers:

Linza → Ahrim → Verac → Akrisae → Torag → Karil → Guthan → Dharok

​

General Strategy

⬥ It is recommended to be on an Undead slayer task to benefit from the slayer helmet slayerhelm and Guardhouse boosts

⬥ You can pre-vuln by using vulnbomb on the ground after clicking the sarcophagus

⬥ Bringing a spade and using it to dig in order to enter the mounds is quicker

⬥ Good movement can improve the efficiency of your runs, below are some examples starting at Dharok's crypt:

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Guthan last

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Akrisae last

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Karil last

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Torag last
