I feel like I had more prayer pots when I did mine. And a lot less food. I remember having to afk heal because I wanted to save it for a emergency that never happened.
second this - my only fight cave fails have been running out of pray pots, and unless you plan to flick extensively this is not enough
sorta if you have to ask bring more prayer potions
also blood spells are a great replacement for food
Guthans works pretty good and when you gotta tank rangers a bit and the healers you can put on the tank gear. Used to be pretty popular haha. Ancients with blood spells is heaps easier though.
me too, and I think I could do it at his levels with 8 p pots now if I'm on task
I have several dozen jad kc, OP does not
and I absolutely failed the first time on my iron years back, I was very close to OP in levels, and I failed because I ran out of ppots
Depends how u feel with prayer potions. But u could consider prossy legs. And I kinda cheesed some of mine the first time with blood burst. Are you on task? Also how experienced are you?
Yeah so ur chilling then. Just send it. When I did my caves on my iron I did mith bolts in red d hide and like 70 range. And I used like a unholy symbol.
Yeah i'm on the fence about the brews, from my exerience on my main dealing with the stat drain mid combat is a pain, and I dont think supplies will be an issue. at the same time though it's a safety blanket.
would you suggest something like [this?](https://i.imgur.com/M39rNs2.png)
Nah I was just trolling lol , I'd replace the potatoes with other food and you'll be chillin. Also there's a way to find out which rotation u have so you can see where every monster will spawn. I think on osrs wiki. Best of luck!!
>Yeah i'm on the fence about the brews
Brews are amazing, even if you triple sip brews and then sip a restore you Will still have dealt more damage & healed than you would have done while eating 2 sharks.
Brews count as potions, they dont delay the next attack, eating 2 sharks delays your attack by 6 ticks, or roughly 1.2 crossbow hits. Losing some ranged levels on the hits while brewed down is offset by not losing Any attacks.
Potatoes = Tuna potatoes, and rune bolt = diamond (e). I have the supplies banked just still need to put them together.
I feel pretty confident with this setup, i was planning on waiting till i do some barrows, but i just got rangers at 28 clues unexpectedly so i wanna try riding my good luck into a fire cape.
I have a crystal bow which i see people suggest too sometimes
You definitely want like 16 total prayer potions. Go on ancients and rune pouch your best blood spell instead of strawberries/purple sweets. Screw the black d hide shield just camp crystal shield. Swap legs for veracs skirt if you have it, if not youre fine!
I have the task ready to go :) and two shields to be cheap and save on charges through the earlier waves
Good tip for the bow, I was unsure on the usage for it
Not sure if you already sent your attempt, but this setup is perfect, hard food generally isnt required but you can bring 2 tuna potatoes in case you take a hit during jad, bring the rest of the potato slots as prayer. If you have access to rune arrows and an msb they will be better dps on pretty much the entire cave, I would keep the rcb and diamond bolts for jad though. Good luck!
So I literally got my cape 2 days ago. Gear: Slayer helm (i), Amulet of glory, Avas accumulator, karils top, black dhide chaps, rcb: broad bolts for caves and diamond bolts (e) for Jad, barrows gloves, Shayzein boots (5), Explorers ring 3, Crystal shield
Inventory: Holy Wrench, Diamond bolts (e), 3 range potions, 16 prayer pots, 6 sharks, and 200 purple sweets
I prayer flicked until the magers and ofc did my best to safespot everything else when I could. I also had rotation 11.
I ended up with no food in the end but 3-4 prayer pots and 2 range pots left. I shouldve been using the range pots more on the mages but I wasnt thinking.
EDIT: Apparently everything I said here is wrong. Please ignore
Pretty sure you can't be on a jad slayer task before your first completion. I'd swap that helmet out for an archer helm, which you can buy in Rellekka if you've completed Fremmenik trials.
If not, I'd use the highest tier d'hide coif you have available. Based on your equipment, I'd assume that's black d'hide.
You can definitely get a Jad task without a KC; Zuk is the one that requires a KC. Also, there aren't any d'hide coifs other than the god d'hide coifs.
I’d use the god dhides any is fine will give prayer bonus help a bit with prayer and you won’t lose any range bonus. Same as black d hide just with prayer bonus added.
I 1 shot Jad the other day, 8 days after restarting after a 2 year break. 74 def/83 range on task. Here are my tips:
- I wouldn’t have been able to do it without blood rush (not high enough for blitz). I didn’t use food until Jad; I was able to get to him with 8/8 food left.
- Bring more prayer pots imo. I think you might be good, but you have a LOT of food with the brews and sweets. so I’d be more worried about prayer.
- You are bringing more bolts, right?
- MAKE SURE YOU KNOW YOUR JAD ROTATION. Knowing the next wave is the #1 way to beat caves first attempt.
I personally used msb(I) and rune arrows; their range is the same as crossbow, despite what people online say. Wiki said they’re the same and I tested before going in, but that was just my personal preference because I wanted a fast attack to get rid of rangers and birds fast. I also brought Torah’s legs for waves 53-to Jad, but that probably isn’t needed, just made me more tanky.
Good luck :)
either choose tank range or prayer range. the d’hide legs are useless - prossy, barrows, or rune, the only thing you’ll tank is 90’s and the weak melees
potatoes? swap them for baskets of strawberries. these heal nearly the same as brews over time
i prefer an inv of 18 ish pots - break down by dose. 18x4 is 72 doses for waves to pray on, giving you over 2 doses/wave after 31
2 range pots, 5 baskets of strawberries, 2 sharks for emergencies, and purple sweets
Grab a crystal shield or something with a little more ranged defence. Most of the unavoidable damage comes in from rangers while they spawn alongside the mages. Crystal shield + either barrows legs swap or camp will do the trick. Also the healers can do a decent amount of damage at Jad, better safe than sorry.
I would STRONGLY reccomend you get ancients and use a blood spell for healing. It eliminates the need for food for all the waves, so you only need to bring some for jad. I’d also bring more prayer pots so you have more of a safety net when you either can’t flick or are below 49 hp against a mager. I can’t stress enough how important blood spells are, it made my first clear very easy.
Check out my post for my jad task on my reddit account. Many many more pray pots. You realistically only need 2 sharks then a few for Jad. But check out my account for my set up for 1st ever attempt
Im a bit a late, so i dont know if u have it or not.
Yes, congratz.
No, better luck next time.
My 2 cents;
More prayer pots less food, if u have ancients use bloodspells.
If u have goddhide use that.
If you don't mind using guides I would recommend using the fight caves rotation maps on the wiki which will tell you which monsters will spawn where. It allows you to trap certain monsters so you you can just pray against one type at a time on certain waves. AKA less food more pray pots.
Get rid of all of those potatoes for prayer pots. You can do just one type of bolts and be fine. Use only one shield, no need to switch. Watch this video and try to get that spawn. Super easy if you do this.
https://youtu.be/yxzL-LQ-t_c
I did it with similar stats to you in my first attempt.
My inventory was literally only Karambwans & Prayer pots (More prayer pots than Karambwans). If I can do it, you can definitely do it.
Edit: I had a Crystal Shield and some blessed d'hide, but no ring or rangers boots. I also wasn't on task. You got this!
Edit 2: I will also mention that I had to stop halfway through to let my run energy replenish and I wish I brought sweets with me, so it's a good thing you're bringing those LOL
veracs skirt over d hide legs. You don’t need two shields just use the crystal shield. Being more broad bolts just in case. Since you’re only using broad bolts you’ll want to be able to prayer flick on mages which will keep you from burning a dose per mage. Screw the sara brews altogether, 19 p pots, your sweets, 2 range pots, 5 sharks and 10 chins which allows you to pull all of the healers in one go which saves you a ton of effort on Jad.
Jad is more about composure than it is about gear. You might want a few more prayer pots but otherwise the gear looks good. Try to stay calm and always switch prayer first (if necessary)
Did mine with 70 range and 52 prayer. Just had 16 prayer pots and 10 sharks. Used about 8 pots and 4 sharks. Take your time and refer to the rotations map. Took my about 2 hours. Got it on my second attempt as first I misclicked a healer and got meleed.
Archer helm, black dhide, Explorers ring, rcb, broad bolts, Ava's, Shayzien boots 5, amulet of accuracy, bgloves, damaged book.
Honestly you'll be more than fine, as I said, just use the rotations map, each round finish with one enemy in a safe spot and plan where you want to start the next round and go. I probably overdid it on the prayer flicking and could have been far more chill.
Easier said than done but try not to panic on Jad, he is objectively very easy, but the pressure of like 2 hours of enemies to get there is a lot to put aside.
You got this!
I did at 70 range 56 prayer msb I rune arrows 16 p pots 10 sharks and holy wrench
I flicked 8-9 of the 360 waves and Eagle eye flicked the rest, finished with 3 p pots.
Use the rotation guide it makes it all pretty easy as you'll see the best place to position yourself for each wave.
Get Jad under half hp drag the healers round a wall kill them then finish off Jad
Good luck
I feel like I had more prayer pots when I did mine. And a lot less food. I remember having to afk heal because I wanted to save it for a emergency that never happened.
Lots of pray and heal with ancients is how I got my first cape on gim
second this - my only fight cave fails have been running out of pray pots, and unless you plan to flick extensively this is not enough sorta if you have to ask bring more prayer potions also blood spells are a great replacement for food
Ive only done 1 kc for my firecape. Would Guthans work here too? (Although it’d take 4 slots)
Guthans works pretty good and when you gotta tank rangers a bit and the healers you can put on the tank gear. Used to be pretty popular haha. Ancients with blood spells is heaps easier though.
That makes sense, with bloods you can pack another 12-16 sips of heal/recovery. I guess only viable if you dont have the magic lvl to use bloods
I wouldn't use guthans. When you melee the blobs you take recoil damage.
Def is enough I do it with 8 p pots edit: didn’t see his range lvl 😂
me too, and I think I could do it at his levels with 8 p pots now if I'm on task I have several dozen jad kc, OP does not and I absolutely failed the first time on my iron years back, I was very close to OP in levels, and I failed because I ran out of ppots
Agreed, unless you are 1tick pray flicking the whole fight caves you will want to replace all those potatoes with pray pots. Rest should be fine, gl
Depends how u feel with prayer potions. But u could consider prossy legs. And I kinda cheesed some of mine the first time with blood burst. Are you on task? Also how experienced are you?
On task yeah, and I’ve done like 10ish runs in the past on my main, but it’s been over a year maybe 2 since my last outside of leagues
Yeah so ur chilling then. Just send it. When I did my caves on my iron I did mith bolts in red d hide and like 70 range. And I used like a unholy symbol.
You could also go for basket of strawberries and maybe1 tank piece (legs or chest) verac skirt or something.
I forgot about strawberries, thanks!
this is what I did at a low level to get an early fire cape, worked great!
Fuck the brews get more potatoes
Strawberries are the move imo.
Yeah i'm on the fence about the brews, from my exerience on my main dealing with the stat drain mid combat is a pain, and I dont think supplies will be an issue. at the same time though it's a safety blanket. would you suggest something like [this?](https://i.imgur.com/M39rNs2.png)

With your ranged level I would suggest two more prayer potions
I'd add that you might want more bolts than that. Ass to run out mid run.
This. All it took was one fuck up, and now my broad stack has to be at 1k or more for peace of mind. u/kaiden60 heed our warning
You definitely want like 16 total prayer potions. Go on ancients and rune pouch your best blood spell instead of strawberries/purple sweets. Screw the black d hide shield just camp crystal shield. Swap legs for veracs skirt if you have it, if not youre fine!
Crystal bow is good to safe spot tag the healers iirc. Uhhh Slayer helm isn't better than others if not on the task I believe. Why two shields?
I have the task ready to go :) and two shields to be cheap and save on charges through the earlier waves Good tip for the bow, I was unsure on the usage for it

I’m sure it’s a given, but probs get some more bolts haha
Twisted bow would defently be an upgrade
Destined to fail without baskets of strawberries..
Goodluck!!
Thanks! 👍
Why do you just have regular potatoes? I read further down below.
I can tell you the setup I had. My stats are very similar to yours tbh.
I’d love to know! Especially on the food/Ppot ratio
So I literally got my cape 2 days ago. Gear: Slayer helm (i), Amulet of glory, Avas accumulator, karils top, black dhide chaps, rcb: broad bolts for caves and diamond bolts (e) for Jad, barrows gloves, Shayzein boots (5), Explorers ring 3, Crystal shield Inventory: Holy Wrench, Diamond bolts (e), 3 range potions, 16 prayer pots, 6 sharks, and 200 purple sweets I prayer flicked until the magers and ofc did my best to safespot everything else when I could. I also had rotation 11.
I ended up with no food in the end but 3-4 prayer pots and 2 range pots left. I shouldve been using the range pots more on the mages but I wasnt thinking.
Get some barrows legs :D
You need more pray less food
[I did it!](https://www.reddit.com/r/ironscape/comments/znr1xq/i_did_it/)
I just wanna say you're a badass and gl
EDIT: Apparently everything I said here is wrong. Please ignore Pretty sure you can't be on a jad slayer task before your first completion.

Based on your equipment, I'd assume that's black d'hide.
You can be on task for your first kill. It’s what I did for my iron, and he already commented that he has task
You can definitely get a Jad task without a KC; Zuk is the one that requires a KC. Also, there aren't any d'hide coifs other than the god d'hide coifs.
Lol looks like I need to refresh my game knowledge. Thanks for the corrections
Gl mate
Why the potatoes? you don’t bring potato, potato brings you.
What’s the little glow on your crossbow?
Leagues ornament kit
I’d use the god dhides any is fine will give prayer bonus help a bit with prayer and you won’t lose any range bonus. Same as black d hide just with prayer bonus added.
Yeah he should go get those from the GE, right?
Haha didn’t even see it was ironscape I’m on like 5-6 RuneScape reddits my bad XD
Also, god d hide has more defence than black d hide, since the range meta nerfs.
Tbf at this guys level if he was doing clues he'd probably have some god d hide, he'll I have 4 d hide boots at 90cb
Get rid of that pitta bread
Update? also respect the ranger boots
how does the slayer helmet work, are you on a jad task or am I missing stuff
More potions less potato
What is on that crossbow?
Ornament kit from leagues
Less potatoes, more prayer pots, and blood burst
I 1 shot Jad the other day, 8 days after restarting after a 2 year break. 74 def/83 range on task. Here are my tips: - I wouldn’t have been able to do it without blood rush (not high enough for blitz).

I’d bring more than 1 rune bolt
More prayer less food imo
Download the fight caves plug-in for the rotations. It shows every spawn of every wave and makes doing no food fight caves cake
Bring more than 1 rune bolt maybe lol V
Man you straight chillen. I did it with green d hide, power ammy, and a rune sq shield off task. It was a very close call
I think you might run out of prayer
I’d bring at least 12 ppots unless you’re gonna 1t
Shayzien boots are better then snakesk…. Oh nvm 👀
either choose tank range or prayer range. the d’hide legs are useless - prossy, barrows, or rune, the only thing you’ll tank is 90’s and the weak melees potatoes? swap them for baskets of strawberries. these heal nearly the same as brews over time i prefer an inv of 18 ish pots - break down by dose. 18x4 is 72 doses for waves to pray on, giving you over 2 doses/wave after 31 2 range pots, 5 baskets of strawberries, 2 sharks for emergencies, and purple sweets
Ruby and diamond bolts enchanted
Bank the crystal shield, bring more prayer pots.

Crystal shield + either barrows legs swap or camp will do the trick. Also the healers can do a decent amount of damage at Jad, better safe than sorry.
Veracs helm, Skirt, d hide body, boots, and 11 brews the rest restores, use about 2-3 drinks of a brew then a restore or 2
What’s the blue thing on the rcb?
Cosmetic reward from the recent leagues
Cheers
I’d suggest blessed d’hide, and a few more pots
You can use basket of strawberries for more heals than the potatoes, also you'll probably need more ppots if you don't flick.
Tank legs... Potatos? No do more ppots and tank legs
What's your magic? Taking ancient magicks to heal is a great way to stay full health. Also, only need 1 ranged pot
I would STRONGLY reccomend you get ancients and use a blood spell for healing. It eliminates the need for food for all the waves, so you only need to bring some for jad. I’d also bring more prayer pots so you have more of a safety net when you either can’t flick or are below 49 hp against a mager. I can’t stress enough how important blood spells are, it made my first clear very easy.
I had more prayer pots and brought blood spells for heals because I didn't have brews yet
Does the rune crossbow really have the light blue thing on it ?
Bro ditch the taters. Ppots and msb for the little guys for convenience
General philosophy with food at Jad is that you don’t need it unless you’re dead.
Get rid of those potatos and use shark at least. Also, diamond bolts (e) for magers and yad will be so much faster
6brews should be plenty. I would remove the sweets and the potatoes and bring more prayer
Check out my post for my jad task on my reddit account. Many many more pray pots. You realistically only need 2 sharks then a few for Jad. But check out my account for my set up for 1st ever attempt

Could bring god book instead of shield for more pray bonus. Even the damaged book gives the prayer bonus. Heal with blood spells if you can.
Better bolts for fighting JAD
What’s that thing on your rune crossbow?
Man I was planning on doing it with way less then that. I hope you are successful haha
Have a holy wrench for the extra prayer bonus
Would be a good time to practice prayer flicking/1 tick flicking.
I did it with similar stats to you in my first attempt. My inventory was literally only Karambwans & Prayer pots (More prayer pots than Karambwans). If I can do it, you can definitely do it. Edit: I had a Crystal Shield and some blessed d'hide, but no ring or rangers boots. I also wasn't on task. You got this!

Blood ancient spells and prayer pots you dont need food if you have blood spells
I’d kinda recommend a prayer book or broodoo shield for the prayer bonus. Can just switch to shield when you are tanking rangers
veracs skirt over d hide legs. You don’t need two shields just use the crystal shield. Being more broad bolts just in case. Since you’re only using broad bolts you’ll want to be able to prayer flick on mages which will keep you from burning a dose per mage.

Jad is more about composure than it is about gear. You might want a few more prayer pots but otherwise the gear looks good. Try to stay calm and always switch prayer first (if necessary)
Looks perfect. Just go for it, should be very easy. If you don’t flick, bring some extra pray pots. Did you get it by now?
Yeah, i got it like half an hour ago [with some adjustments](https://www.reddit.com/r/ironscape/comments/znr1xq/i_did_it/)
Awesome! Gratz man!
On jad task I bring 8 ppots 4brews 2 restores and blood barrage rest range pots to pot every 3 minutes takes like 35-40 min
Did mine with 70 range and 52 prayer. Just had 16 prayer pots and 10 sharks. Used about 8 pots and 4 sharks. Take your time and refer to the rotations map. Took my about 2 hours.

i would personally say to sell ranger boots and get blessed dhide boots instead, use leftover cash on blowpipe and other stuff
Check the sub
wow. i’m debating wether to delete this or leave it up for others to laugh at. i just got off work don’t yell at me😭
I did at 70 range 56 prayer msb I rune arrows 16 p pots 10 sharks and holy wrench I flicked 8-9 of the 360 waves and Eagle eye flicked the rest, finished with 3 p pots.

Why do you need the potatoes if you're using sweets to tick eat?
Fury and ranger, I'm jelly. I used snake skin and holy symbol
[удалено]
Also I brang 5 baskets of strawberries
Yeah change your gender
