What is the best melee armor in runescape?

Answer 1

Best for what? It really depends on a variety of factors; like how much money you want to spend, and your preferred combat style. Personally, most of the time I try to maximize prayer bonus, to make prayer last longer - and then use protection prayers. This type of armour is fairly cheap. You can also choose armour that maximizes melee damage, ranged damage or magic damage you cause; or concentrate more on armour that protects you better, so you can use less food while attacking NPCs. There is usually some trade-off, meaning that armour that is best for one purpose is not necessarily best for another. For example, if I maximize prayer bonus as mentioned above, I also cause less damage per second, since I have less bonus for melee damage.

Answer 2

For a nonmember, its rune, not that corrupt dragon armor. That stuff will fall apart. For members there is no real best but 3rd age and all barrows are preferred the best. dragon is good for people that want really good armor that's not as expensive as 3 to 25 mill. it is also preferred to use fighter torso instead of dragon plate body if u don't have over 10 mill.
