ancient mace kills the protect item prayer, thats all i know lol, trust me you dont need it. i got maxed melee today ;P so i can tell you about it
1. have full dharok, and the best other items u can get
2. eat rock cake till 1 hp
3. drink absorptions till u have 1,000
4. leave autoclicker each 20-30 secs on rapid heal so u have 1hp for ever, then just wait ;D you'll get 70-80k / h depending on stats, its AMAZING
as for bosses, you need to trade a hoster, demon hosters are for massive points, 1k absorp will last like 2 hours and if u wanna last 6 hours, pay a guthans host(weak monsters), it really is the same xp, just less points and more afk time
KEEP IN MIND YOU NEED TO HAVE THOSE 5 QUESTS COMPLETED
What Lies Below
Haunted Mine
Tree Gnome Village
Lost City
Vampire Slayer
