D long is stronger, yet slower. I choose longswords any day, even if strength training. Besides, the special for the long is better than the scimmy IMO.

The d scimmys spec used to freeze you for a couple of seconds but now it rarely cuts through prayer. <.<

DScim because of speed. The two are very similar aside from speed, speed is only factor.

Basically. And a spec is never a reason to pick a weapon.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I maxed def long before I started with att and str (88 each when I had 99 def), so I've had to do str training. There's absolutely no comparison between a long and a scim...scim destroys it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I've never used the anchor...I prefer the speed of the scim and the ability to use a defender with it.

Hmm, I personally prefer the d long but that may be because I haven't ad enough time to experiment with my d scim.

I prefer the balanced attack bonuses of the dragon longsword. We shouldn't be berating anybody about their choice between a dragon longsword or a dragon scimitar because its their character and thus their choice.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Same with a granite maul. I don't need to deal with immature players that call me a "noob" just because I don't have a granite maul. I prefer the balanced quality of a longsword over any weapon, any day of the week.
