Barrows

The Barrows minigame is an area-based combat minigame. The minigame is named after the six burial mounds in which the Barrows brothers were entombed after their deaths during the Third Age.

During this minigame, players attempt to rob valuable items from the Barrows brothers' crypts. However, due to an ancient spell, the brothers' wights continued to dwell in the barrows, protecting these treasures.

Barrows is a popular minigame due to the potential of receiving valuable rewards, including the unique Barrows equipment. The objective is to defeat the six Barrows brothers and open the rewards chest.

• 43+ Prayer: Protect from Magic, Missiles, and Melee.
• 50+ Magic: For Iban's Blast
• 60+ Attack: (If using melee.)

Auras & Relics

These are not mandatory in completing the minigame but they can be very beneficial at times. Barrows is fairly easy overall so don't think these are 100% required in order to partake.

Gear Setup

4/6 of the Barrows Brothers are weak to Magic so your best in slot magic damage setup is recommended. A ranged switch is also recommended due to Ahrim's higher magic defense.

Getting There

North of home, utilize the Portal Nexus 'Search' function and type "Barrows".

After teleporting to Barrows, open your minimap and become familiar with the location of each brother's crypt. This will allow you to prepare ahead of time for which combat style to use and what overhead prayer to protect.
