Your Barrows Tips
Quick find code: 254-255-45-63490359
1. Kill count only seems to have an effect on the amount of bolt racks you get from the chest. Every time you go through a door either a monster or a brother (if you haven't killed them all yet) will spawn. This is a good way to get your kill count up. The sweet spot seems to be around 7 kill count if you think the extra bolts are worth your time.
2. When first entering the tunnel, you can only go through one of the 4 doors. If that one door leads to the long corridor around another room connected to the middle room, then be sure to move your cursor over the door between the room you're passing and the middle room to see if it is locked or not. That may be your only way into the middle room where the loot is, and this will save you the time of going back to check it the long way, or worse, checking all of the doors only to find that you'd already passed it all the way back at the start of the tunnel.

Items required: 2 prayer pots, 10 lobsters, mind runes and death runes (max if possible), slayer dart, magic gear. Also, Ardougne teleport would come handy (to tele fast to an altar and not too far away from the grand exchange -- evil tree tele --)
The slayer dart magic power is used for all the melee-fighting brothers, because they have a low magic resistance. Always use your anti damage prayer that is needed against the brother.
For Ahrim and Karil, use your best melee fighting ways, try wearing bandos armour and perfect melee set.
When you arrive in the tunnels, you can easily kill monsters with the melee gear and then you can also have more runes (no more luck to gain barrow armour sorry, the killcount isn't for luck, just for more runes.)
So this was it, if you have completed Branches of Darkmeyer you can use a fast teleport way to Barrows, otherwise Temple Trek is also useful, then you can gain an extra teleport place to your games necklace, so this necklace would also help you.
PS: Why lobsters? Because if you use your prayers well, you'll just need to look out at Verac, because he can hit through your prayer (less damage than normally but he hits...), and lobsters aren't too much atm.
For a special attack weapon, I recommend Dragon claws or Dragon dagger (p++), because they hit good when used, and you'll certainly want to kill the ranger and mager as quickly as possible

If using prayer gear (Soul wars cape, proselyte etc,) then mage (with slayer dart or polypore staff preferably) all of the brothers exepct for ahrim, karil, and Akrisae. Even with, lets say, -10 mage bonus, i seem to hit often with polypore and slayer dart, so don't worry. For ahrim and karil melee is usually the best option, a whip will do, but watch out because ahrim can weaken your melee stats whether your praying mage or not. Akrisae, only fought after ritual of the mahjarrat, is a bit different from the others but still easy. if you start the fight with a rapier, when you deal about 200 damage he will switch to protect from melee., so you have to bring two different attack styles if fighting him. Preferred set up to beat him would be to use whip and polypore since polypore doesn't require you too select auto cast.
For the catacombs, wear the preferred weapon to fight the brother still not beaten (for he can appear at any time) and run around in circles until you find the middle door leading to the center.
....(this is how i usually do it, there are many better ways out there im sure, but this is just a tip :p)
If done the The Branches of Darkmeyer quest, then you can use the Drakan's medallion to teleport to Burgh de rott for quick banking or to barrows for a quick exit and restart.
Note: too get the barrow teleport on the medallion you must talk to Vanescula Drakan, the vyre person that helps you during the BoD quest, she will then fully unlock its potential.
As said by many before, i hope this isn't a repeat
