       -Paine’s Bandos Guide-

Hello everyone,I wanted to do a more in depth guide of bandos and using different weapons such as a scythe of virtur and twisted bow.THIS GUIDE IS MAINLY AIMED AT SOLO/DUO BANDOS TRIPS.Please leave a comment on how i can improve/fix the guide.Big shoutout to @Raud Flame I for providing the images needed for the range set up.I decided to make a table of contents so navigating through the guide is easier.Enjoy!

 

Table of content:

1. General Knowledge
2. Going to bandos
3. Strategy
4. Gear and set up
5. Droptable/droprates

 

1.GENERAL KNOWLEDGE

Spoiler

-General Graardor is level 624 combat boss with a 250 hp and a max hit of 60 with melee and 35 with range.General Graardor,also known as bandos is one of the four godwars bosses.Like every other room bandos too has 3 minions which attack in different styles.

 

 

1. Sergeant Strongstack is a level 141 combat minion which attacks in melee with a max hit of 15.

                                                             

                                           

2. Sergeant Steelwill is a level 142 combat minion which attacks in mage with a max hit of 16.

                                                         

 

3. Sergeant Grimspike is a level 142 combat minion which attacks in range with a max hit of 16.

                                                             

 

 

 

2.GOING TO BANDOS

Spoiler

 

 

• In order to kill the boss you must teleport to the godwars dungeon.After teleporting there via the teleport wizard in Edgeville you can visit the bandos lair by going northwest.

                      

 

• After going northwest for a little you will see a door which you can simply click to enter(does not require hammer)

 

 

• From there all you need to do is run a bit north and you’re there!

 

 

3.STRATEGY

Spoiler

• If you are soloing all 3 minions will aggro on you which mean you will get hit a lot which makes your trips slower and harder.If you walk close to altar the mage minion (Sergeant Steelwill) will not be able to attack you and hence you only tank 1 minion(Sergeant Grimspike).This method will make you able to stay longer and use less supplies.
• For this method i suggest the tankiest gear you own such as bandos,torags,etc.
• I do not suggest doing bandos with rune or worse gear as it makes it a lot harder and can get 1-2 kills per trip.
• Duoing is much easier and makes kills easier
• The method i suggest using while duoing is where one teammate is tanking and the other doing damage,this way the tanker will wear tankier gear and he will tank boss/minions,and the other one will deal damage.
• This method is efficient because it makes kills faster with less food used.
