Ahrim the Blighted's equipment

A player wearing a full set of Ahrim's equipment.

Ahrim the Blighted's equipment is obtainable from the Barrows minigame. A full set consists of Ahrim's robetop, robeskirt, hood, and staff. The set requires 70 Magic and 70 Defence to wear, and 70 Attack to use the staff. Ahrim's robes give Melee Defence bonuses that Magic robes normally don't have, which makes it somewhat popular for PvP situations. The staff, on the other hand, is not commonly used, and the set effect is generally not seen as particularly useful; however, the staff is able to autocast Ancient Magicks when a full set is equipped alongside an amulet of the damned (otherwise it provides spells from the standard spellbook). Ahrim's (along with other Barrows equipment) degrades over a period of 15 hours, but only in combat.

Ahrim's set offers some of the best Magic bonuses available and is normally recommended for fighting various high level monsters. It is one of the few sets of magical robes that give Defence bonuses against things other than Magic. This is further reinforced by the fact that the robes look like a combination of chainmail and robes. Like chainmail, it is strong against crush attacks; however, more like dragonhide, it is weak to slash and strong against stab. However, it provides no Ranged protection. It is also noticeably heavier than other Magic armour; the full set weighs approximately 19 kg, with the top and bottom alone weighing 4.5 and 11.3. This makes it less practical for activities where lots of running is required, such as Chambers of Xeric.
