Fighter Torso is known to be the 2nd best melee chest in the game in terms of strength bonus. Obtaining it is not that easy, but it’s cheaper than buying the 1st best melee chest which is the Bandos Chestplate. That’s why the top players are willing to obtain it mostly to start raids.
To obtain Fighter Torso, you will need to participate in theBarbarian Assault Minigame. So in this guide, i’m going to explain how to play it and what is required to obtain the chest.

The Queen
In this phase, the Collector will be doing nothing but calling for the attack styles until the Queen appears. Once the Queen appears, the Collector will have to pick the 8 yellow eggs only which are dropped around the Queen.

The job of the Healer when the Queen appears is to heal everyone as fast as possible since the queen will be dealing high damage to everyone. The rest of the players should stay near the Healer spring.
After picking the eggs, the Collector should use them on the Healer, which will transfer the eggs to the Healer’s inventory. The Healer will have to use the eggs on Poison Craters, then transfer the eggs to the Attacker.

The Attacker will add Spikes near the eggs by picking the spikes first from the Spiked Mushrooms. After that, he should transfer the eggs to the Defender.
