The name of the game is to obtain DR from any possible sources. Damage and evasion are secondary to DR. Without access to {{Skill|Smithing}}, {{Skill|Crafting}} or {{Skill|Runecrafting}}, our sources of DR are quite limited, but they exist. Note that all of the items in this section requires {{ZoneIcon|Impending Darkness Event}} to be completed. Because of the tight DR windows, this section of the guide assumes {{Skill|Hitpoints|120}} and {{PetIcon|Finn, the Cat}}. It may be possible to supplement lower {{Skill|Hitpoints}} levels with {{PrayerIcon|Holy Aegis}}, {{PrayerIcon|Stone Skin}}, {{ItemIcon|Guardian Amulet}} or a {{ItemIcon|Wasteful Ring}}. Each of these options incurs a relatively large efficiency penalty or opportunity cost so they should used be a last resort. With lower {{Skill|Hitpoints}} it will be up to the user to consult the Combat Simulator and proceed with caution.

The item we seek in this section are {{ItemIcon|Frost Walker Boots}}, {{ItemIcon|Perfect Sight Legs}} (if not already obtained), {{ItemIcon|Slayer Gear Upgrade Kit (Legendary)}}, which add a hefty amount of DR. {{ItemIcon|Bundled Protection Body}} can also be used for dungeons and will also now be obtained.
