Update: Raids 4 hybrid armour is an item topic that Gnomonkey covers in 1 video on 2026-06-16. This article is a stub: his statements are grouped by type, repeated ones merged.

Stats and numbers

  • Each piece of the proposed hybrid armour gives 2% magic damage, and the melee strength bonuses are 6 on the helmet, 4 on the body and 3 on the legs, plus a lot of prayer bonus and mostly melee and magic accuracy.1
  • The proposed hybrid armour is the first armour set with a stab accuracy bonus of any kind, which Gnomonkey says could be very useful in Tombs of Amascut where players bring both magic and melee armour for stab on a Fang.2
  • The blog says the hybrid armour's melee accuracy is more than Bandos (which has none) but less than style-specific options like Earthplate or Ink, and its magic accuracy is a smidge below ancestral robes.3
  • The hybrid armour has no negative defence bonuses and is slightly worse than Bandos against melee and ranged, with +28 magic defence, which is lower than ancestral robes.3
  • The proposed hybrid armour has a plus 16 prayer bonus, close to Proselyte's plus 18, and below the plus 24 of Sunfire armour.4
  • The hybrid armour has more melee strength than Bandos and Oathplate but 5 less than Torva for the full set, and its magic damage is in line with Virtus but less than ancestral.5

Gnomonkey's opinion

  • Gnomonkey says the hybrid armour looks very cool, praising its Guthix design.6
  • Gnomonkey notes that with a melee-magic hybrid set a player would still need separate ranged armour such as Masori or Eclipse, so armour pieces end up mixed all over the inventory when switching.7

Events

  • The Raids 4 blog proposes a tradable melee-magic hybrid armour set with no set effects or passives, just solid numbers, after the community showed more interest in armour that serves multiple combat styles than in an elemental weakness armour.8
