Contents
The 6 Barrow Brothers
There are six different Barrow brothers, each with their own unique strengths. Every melee brother has 150 hitpoints and Ahrim/Karil have 120 hitpoints. You need to defeat them all in order to be eligible for any rewards. In one of the tombs of a Barrow brother you will find a tunnel, go back out of the catacomb and kill the rest of the Brothers. Return to the tunnel and go to the middle to find a chest, that you can only open when you have killed all Brothers.
Verac the Defiled
Verac's catacomb is located under the north-west hill. Verac's weakness is Earth spells. When fighting this Barrow Brother it is always recommended to use Protect from melee prayer since he attacks with melee. Verac's armour set gives Verac a chance to ignore the player's armor bonuses. So watch your health when fighting him as he can hit very accurately.
Dharok the Wretched
Dharok's catacomb is located under the north-east hill. Dharok will attack with melee but a lot slower than his other Brothers (speed of a 2handed weapon). Dharok's armour set gives Dharok a bonus: when his health runs lower he will start to deal more damage so be careful when he is low health as he can hit easily over 70. Protect from melee prayer is always highly recommended when fighting Dharok. Watch your health when fighting this brother and don't be afraid of keeping your health as high as possible. When you run out of prayer it is advised to leave the catacomb and regenerate.
Ahrim the Blighted
Ahrim's catacomb is located under the centre hill. He will attack you with ice barrage (which also freezes, preventing you from a running escape) so it is advised to use Protect from Magic. His weakness is range.
Torag the Corrupted
Torag's catacomb is located under the south-west hill. He will attack you with melee so it is advised to use Protect from Melee. His weakness is water spells. Torag is often seen as the weakest brother but should not be taken lightly due to his high defense. The fight with Torag can be difficult for players with a lower prayer level since the fight can take a while. A Bandos godsword or Statius's warhammer special attack can prove useful if it takes you a long time bringing him down.
Guthan the Infested
Guthan's catacomb is located under the south-east hill. He will attack you with melee so it is advised to use Protect from Melee. His weakness is air spells. Guthan's armor set gives him a chance to regenerate health with the damage done to the player. This means when he hits a 10 on you he will heal for 10 hitpoints. You will recognize this healing by "purple souls" rising up.
Karil the Tainted
Karil's catacomb is located under the southern hill. He will attack you with range so it is advised to use Protect from Range. His weakness is melee.
Rewards
As a reward for killing all the Barrow brothers you may open the chest in the middle of the tunnel network. After you opened the chest you will teleport away to the same shack you got teleported to from the portal in Canifis. You can be rewarded with a random arrange of runes, Dragon darts, Dragon arrows or a piece of Barrow armour or weapon. The chances to receive one piece of Barrow's armour is 1 in 4 for one round. This can be Ahrim's robes, Karil's armour, Torag's armour, Verac's armour, Guthan's armour or Dharok's armour.
If you're lucky you may even receive two pieces of Barrows in one round.
