What Gear To Buy Next? OSRS Gear Progression Guide

In this guide, you will start with a gear set worth less than 2,500,00 GP as your starting gear. You also upgrade your weapons as you train combat in general.

This guide is about the gear that you need to buy next in OSRS to be more efficient.

Starting Gear

For your starting gear, you start with a black mask or neitiznot helm. Use any god blessing that you have. You can use the dragon scimitar, the fighter torso, rune plate legs, combat bracelet, climbing boots, and a warrior ring.

Endgame Gear

These are the items that you will obtain after all of your upgrades. 

For the Complete End-gear Setup you will have the Serpentine helm or the slayer helmet. You also get an infernal cape, as well as an amulet of torture, Rada’s blessing (4), a scythe, a rapier, or a blade, or ammo for twisted bow switch, Bandos chestplate, avernic defender, Bandos tassets, Ferocious gloves, Primordial boots, and also a Berserker ring (i).

Gold efficiency is how much you get from an upgrade for benefits per gold that you spent.

You may also upgrade to the Dragon Platelegs, which cost 160,000, that requires level 60 Defence.

Saradomin Sword

You may also combine a Saradomin sword with a Saradomin’s tear in which this degrades at 10,000 hits and costs you 81 GP for each Attack. To use this, you are required to have 75 Attack level. It also gives six more strength bonus compared to a regular Saradomin Sword.

Ring – Berserker Ring

For rings, you will upgrade to a Berserker ring for 3,000,000. This will give you a +4 strength Bonus.

You may also upgrade to a Berserker Ring (i) in which this costs 650,000 NMZ points. You also get a +4 more strength bonus compared to a regular Berserker ring with a +8 Strength bonus overall.

Capes – Fire Cape

For capes, you should get the fire cape, which will give you a +4 strength bonus. This is a BIS melee cape, just like the infernal cape.

Gloves – Ferocious Gloves

You need the Ferocious gloves that cost around 7,800,00 to 8,300,000 GP, and you need 80 Attack and 80 Defense and DS2 completed to use this. It also gives you a +14 strength bonus.

Your gear should now look something like this.

Amulet of Torture

At this point, you need to get the amulet of torture, which costs around 13,500,000 GP to 14,000,000 GP. You also need 75 HP. It also gives you a +10 Strength Bonus.

Strength Training Weapons

  • You may want to upgrade to the Gharazi Rapier and Defender for 75 Attack and 75 Defence for weapons.
  • The Abyssal Bludgeon for 70 Attack and 70 Strength, 
  • The Abyssal Dagger and Defender for 70 Attack as well as 70 Defence, 
  • Saradomin Sword with 70 Attack, and to the Dragon Scimitar and Defender for 60 Attack and 60 Defence. 

This is for strength training.

Attack Training Weapons

  • Gharazi Rapier and Defender at 75 Attack and 75 Defence, 
  • Abyssal Whip and Defender at 70 Attack and 70, and the 
  • Dragon Scimitar and Defender at level 60 Attack and level 60 Defence.

What is recommended is that you train your melee to reach level 70 first: level 70 in Attack, level 70 Strength, and also level 70 in Defence. Then you will train Strength in which the idea is that you reach 99, but you may hit level 90 or at least level 92 first as this is more attainable for some players.

If you can afford a bludgeon you get with level 70 attack and Strength, you should go for it. It also gives you an 85 strength bonus. However, it costs 28,000,000 to 30,000,000 GP. If you don’t afford it, choose the abyssal dagger instead in which it costs 8,000,000 with level 70 Attack and level 70 Defence and gives you 81 Strength bonus.
