Verac's flail is a 2-handed flail that is part of Verac the Defiled's set of barrows equipment. To wield Verac's flail, a player must have 70 Attack. The flail shares many similarities to a mace, notably its attack styles and stat distribution.
If Verac's flail is wielded along with all of the other pieces of equipment in Verac's set, the player receives the Defiler set effect. With this set effect active, player attacks have a chance (averaging 1/4) of hitting through an opponent's defence and prayer entirely. This effect can be devastating towards tank opponents who rely on high defence; the player has potential to land high damaging hits consecutively, regardless of how high the defence level/bonuses are of the opponent or whether they are using prayers. With this set effect, Verac's flail can be considered one of the best weapons for certain PvM situations. This weapon cannot be made using the Smithing skill.
- Verac's flail is only tradeable when undamaged or fully broken.
- If you drop this item it will degrade to "0".

Repair[]
Barrows equipment degrades as it is used. Equipment received from the Barrows minigame is fully repaired and can be used for 15 hours of combat until it degrades completely and requires repair before it can be used again. Barrows armour degrades even if the player is using protection prayers or not taking damage. Unlike the crystal shield and crystal bow, Barrows equipment does not suffer in performance as it degrades from fully repaired to fully degraded. Fully repaired Barrows items start out with no numbers in their names, e.g. Verac's flail. It will become Verac's flail 100 the first time it's used in combat. Eventually it will degrade to Verac's flail 75, then 50, then 25 and finally 0 at which point the armour will be unusable until repaired. Additionally, Barrows equipment may only be traded if fully repaired or fully degraded.
When dropped or lost on death, any piece of Barrows equipment will automatically degrade to 0. Players who attempt to drop Barrows equipment will receive a warning message about this.
There are two ways to repair Barrows armour. Players can talk to any of the NPCs listed below and they will repair the items for a price, or repair the pieces themselves using an armour stand in any player-owned house. The equipment can be repaired at any stage, and the cost will be adjusted according to how much it has degraded. The repair costs below are as if the equipment has fully degraded.
The following NPCs can repair the armour:
- Bob - the axe seller in Lumbridge
- Tindel Marchant - the weapon and armour repairman at Port Khazard
- Dunstan - the smith in Burthorpe
- Squire - in the workshop area of the Void Knights' Outpost
