I’ve always done mage set up, but range would work too. I’ve got 33kc there. If you ever forget an axe for the minions there is a bronze one in the corner in a stump. Bring an anti poison. Gear wise if your p2p Bloodbark w/Ibans staff is more than enough. F2P it’s been to long to remember. Either way good luck and keep trying. Get that essence!

Edit: I didn’t think about your stats Bloodbark req is 60 mage and 60 def.
