ok dont have a go if i'm late to catch up on this, but i've been on holiday for the past 2 weeks, and somebody told me that the barrows has been fixed so the spirits can walk through stuff liek human shields and even the sarcophagus, is this true?

if so, what is the new easiest way to kill them all? i was thinknig mix cannon with bind/snare/entangle spells?

I haven't been there since the changes but probably still using pray is the easiest way. I think its good that they took the blocking out becuse now its more of a challenge.

yeah it makes it more of a challenge, but for me and other players like me it's too much of a challenge lol, I used to enjoy going down to the barrows with my friend and we'd block for each other and just generally have fun, with these changes i can see myself getting majorly owned by dharok at least

Well I do agree it is kind of hard. They make the pink guys have too much defence. Still I like the update though.

Yeah they just generally have too much in the way of stats, definitely too high for a lvl 115, Since there's mixed opinions going on i'll make this into a poll

I voted it more challenging. I had a friend who b=had someone blocked and killed the pink guys for hours and he got so many barrows things. I just think that unfair. Thats not what barrows was for, it was a challenge not a piece of cake.

fair enough point, I mainly did it for the fun, through all my trips I never got anything of value except bolt racks, the chance of gettin armour was just a nice addition

Yea the best thing I got was a half key. I was after a drag med especially after they were so common when barrows came out.

Barrows i can handle on my own with ease..so this update never affected me..although it did make me a lot happier..i got sick of seeing lvl 70-80s down there taking the easy route and getting rich quick.
