What's so good about turmoil zerkers?

Alright so I have a couple questions because I wanna make a really good pker and I wanna own some people. I'm kind of leaning away from 1 def pures because I never see them with anything better than claws as a risk. Although my cousin has a 1 def pure that's almost maxed and it looks like a lot of fun to use.

What's so good about a zerker?
Why would it beat other pkers of the same level?
Is it better than 1 def pkers?

If I decided not to go out and do all the quests required for a TRUE zerker, Are the skills below good for a 1 def?

Attack 80 (for chaotic rapier)
Strength 99
Defence 1
Magic 99
Range 99 (99 because no matter what level mage/range are I won't gain cmb)
Constitution 70-80 (open for suggestions)

ASSUME I WOULD BE DOING SOULWARS FOR ALL STATS.

 

If u want to have fun stay def 1 but if u want big cash go for a maxed Turmoil Zerk...They owne hard with Chaos rapier and turmoil...And they didnt die fast...But if u just play rs for fun and not to make money stay as def 1 because its more fun...

 

theres a build with the same cb level as a turm zerk that has turm

60 attack
99 strength
75 defence
99 hitpoints
99 mage
99 range
95 prayer

it clearly has an advantage in hybridding with much better gear all round and 60 attack+turmoil has no problem hitting 45 def+rune

 

Only problem with this build... no ags, no whip, no Chaotic, no CVLS... Zerkers have so many more possible KO weapons depending on the attack level you wanna give it.

 

What's so good about a zerker? Everything, although if your making one you must make it right, barrow gloves, korasi,turmoil, veng , disruption shield, atleast chaotic maul + rapier. Or dont even bother.

 

Turmoil is the best possible prayer right now. 30 def is the minimum, but 45 defence lets you wear rune gear and berserker helm so it's worth it.

 

45 def turmoilers aren't anything special. In mid 90s, my rigour tank pwns them easily. High 100s, my barrows pure pwns them easily as well, since dh rips through 45 def.

Also, the build mentioned above [60 attack 75 def] is a great brid build. If it's lacking k0 powers for you, then get real and quit pking in +1.

 

How does me saying it lacks KO power have ANYTHING to do with what kind of pking world I use?

P.S.... I only pk in high-risk... That's why I'm looking into a zerker.

I thought korasi was a different type of pure?
What's a disruption shield?
What's so good about korasi? Is it just for KOs or is it for actually hitting normally?

 

Disruption Shield is a spell on Lunars that you can unlock after you do some Livid Farming, it stops the first hit. Great way to stop rushers from killing you.
Korasi is like a Dscimmy when hitting normally, I don't see it that great, but the special attack is good.

 

I personally love turmoil zerkers, they have a very high max hit and are accurate. But, if I were to ruin a 1 def pure I wouldn't do it as pures are fun aswell.

 

you say no CVLS, CVLS requires 20 attack
you can use claws or just a dds, i prefer pking with a dds

that main advantage it has is you can have ahrims so you barely splash and other barrows for tank gear

 

yer the higher your combat level the higher the increase in profits btw i think turmoil plain rules
but think about making a 30 def turmoil pure

 

What's the difference between this and a turmoil zerker? Isn't it the same thing?

 

A turmoil pure has 30 defence and turmoil, a zerker has turmoil and 45 defence. The only difference would be the combat level, and the gear setups. For example a zerker would have barrows gloves, torso, berserker helm versus addy gear and rune gloves. Also korasi isn't really a type of pure, it's just a quest in which you need 10 defence and 78 attack.

 

80-99-45 with 95 prayer is the best build IMO. I've pked on many different types of pkers and I've had the best K/D ratio with those stats.

 

Why those stats? What attack/KO weapons do you use?

 

I also have those stats.
I use rapier to dds, or c maul to g maul.

I can usually kill them with a veng combo though.

 

c maul to g maul? But isn't the chaotic maul really too slow to be a good pking weapon? (Other than KOing with it?)

 

cmaul is amazing for pking, it rips thru any def lvl with huge hits and combos really well with venge.

 

If you get 80 attack 99 str 1 def 99 range you can do a range to c maul combo, and that has proven fun to me
