Infernal Claw.
The Ancient Claw is assembled from the 
fragments that drop only from

- Error creating thumbnail: File missingWave magic,
Rapier melee,- Error creating thumbnail: File missingSlicing Winds magic,

builds were not considered because the Pegasus is
and has the highest evasion against Ranged in addition to the Combat Triangle.

, and at most
or multiple accuracy bonuses from sources such as:
Magic Assistance Potions- Error creating thumbnail: File missingAstrology
- Error creating thumbnail: File missingPrayer

Worth noting that using a 
Mystic Air Staff will drastically reduce the amount of runes spent - especially while using Surge Auroras. The staff will be slower, and will require more Food due to the player taking a greater number of hits.
