it's my belief that the (edit) sara sword has the speed of a normal longsword and can train strength, but uses the crush (not as accurate) it has a 60 or so crush bonus I believe
nice I don't understand why the saradomin sword is a let down the only way I can think is if it doesn't train str or if the str training option isn't as accurate (yes I know it'll be slower)
bandos is just under 3a melee with a str bonus new range armour is better than karils without the degrading this update owns also, sara sword is basically a str training whip (slower though :\)
yet another interview with a famous scaper he actually has a tif account with some posts on it... Only like 30 or so though He posted a vid about all the skillcape emotes :D
use a d scimmy to train attack to 70, moss giants are your friend ^_^ try moss giant island on karamaja when you get 70 att, use whip for 70 def then scimmy up your str if you want
