* Must be used together. Also, this is only recommended for people with experience at solo Nex. If starting out, take level 90 gear instead so it helps block more hits, letting you survive easier.
Inventory: Overloads, Super Prayer renewals, Prayer restore potions (either Prayer potions or super restore), replenishment/adrenaline potions, ring of vigour switch, sign/portent of life and item protection, runes if using Magic, other equipment for hybridding, Enhanced Excalibur, and food.
~ Your choice between dual wield and 2h Ranged/Magic is solely based on how often you’ll be using your shield. Personally, I use a Noxious longbow and seismics if not using an instance, as I found I don't need to Resonance much when Soul Split flicking. The longbow also allows me to kill minions without getting hit by them, saving up food. In an instance, I only use a noxious longbow with a shadow nihil, which speeds up kills by a minute. However, seismics can apply debuffs (Vulnerability) quicker than staves.
That said, dual wield provides more flexibility in going either full tank or DPS, so pick your choice and see what's better.
