retaxis2 Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 as dark beasts are 10x harder to kill, uncampable and require a hard route to access there including all the quests. No one would even bother kill dark beasts if the prices of the dark bow were below say 5mil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will use it to give me give me patience so i can wait another few weeks until it comes out :roll: , seriously before the stats are even out, don't even try to judge its usefulness, most of the points stated here won't count when the actual update is out anyway. Im still waiting too see... afterall...(knowing my luck...it wont be all that good a weapon to sell / make money off of...as all the updates that come out that i get or already have the lvl for stink...84 crafting update...ring a bell anyone?)

zman123123 Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 OK where would you use the dark? Would you going pking with it? Its going to cost millons and the arrows are going to cost lots to. This will a stupid idea. :-X Would you train with it? Id rather use chinchompas.... would you? Would you go monster hunting with it? It could be good for monster killing, with accumulator? Id try to make every arrow count since there will cost lots. Id try tomake me own. Would you buy it for looks lol? mmm if i had the money to splash on it :XD: Whats your thoughts on this? You made this opinion off of? You don't know what it or the arrows with cost, the exp on hour, or the price. So why on earth would you say all this?

This will a stupid idea. :-X Are you an idiot? Have you ever pkd? Really, i pk-d with a whip when they were 20m, now i dont see anything stupid about that- alot of people even now pk with furys/berserker rings etc etc and die losing more than 10m, and i still dont see anything stupid about it. Most probobly the dark bows proctect value will be very similar to the proctect price of the whip, and if you have a deacent internet connection and know what you are doing, theres no ay of losing it. Dragon arrows might cost alot, but noone says you will HAVE to use them- dark bow+rune arrows will still be better than msb+rune arrows. Also, theres no way dragon arrows could cost more than about 5k each, otherwise there just isnt a point in doing anything with them- unless ofcource you can get them back somehow.

AirlessWig Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 I'm kind of hoping it will be almost the same bonus as a crystal bow, so I can take that bow to the dagganoth kings instead of my crystal one, because a low crystal bow is pretty useless and shooting the last bits up, starting from like 4/10 to 0/10 is always annoying me.

Arambul Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 People are forgetting all bows hit the same(except CBow), it's just a matter of accuracy. There is a possibility this bow will be the same, or it will just be like a CBow and have a power boost along with accuracy boost. PKing with it and not using dragon arrows would be kind of pointless, IMO. But of course, if it has an ownage special, I'll quickly take that back.

jaskkes Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 Can't believe how fast this turned into a noob vs 'pro' battle. It's obvious that the bow will be used for pking IF its good enough. No one knows what it's stats will be like. But because the C bow requires 70 range, MSB 50. Im guessing it will be better then an MSB but not as powerful or accurate then a C bow. Good luck slayers :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeDaStudd Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 Personally I think it will turn out to be a unused bow similar to the sercull bow. Why because we already have bows for anything players need *Staking/PK'ing Karil's Xbox, MSB or Crystal bow. *Training MSB (Crystal for some but not as many) Think about the cost too. MSB- 2k to 5k Crystal bow 180k to 900k. Karils Xbox 400k. There prices stay low because more people have done/can barrow/fletch/quest. 90 Slayer is a high requirement, added to the quest involved means the prices will be sky high. Even if the price does hit the 2m mark how many people would choose a weaker (not yet known but the requirements hint to it being) bow for more money. Sure you have to repair the crystal bow and karil's Xbow, but the amount of recharges/repairs you can have more then makes up for the cost. just my 2 Cents :mrgreen: [hide=Drops]Dragon Axe x11Berserker Ring x9Warrior Ring x8SeercullDragon MedDragon Boots x4 - all less then 30 kcGodsword Shard (bandos)Granite Maul x 3Solo only - doesn't include barrows[/hide][hide=Stats][/hide] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its much cheaper than a C Bow (or DBow). But you forgot about one of the main reasons why people play this game. They want to show off their wealth/look good and compare themselves with others. And thats one of the main reasons to buy a DBow, and I dont blame 'em.

Bludragon124 Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 I'm gonna use mine everywhere :o Well I don't pk ever, so not in the wild. =; High Five! I don't ever PK either. On topic: As said, I think this bow could be useful for plenty of situations. Slayer, Castle Wars... Anywhere you would use an MSB. Heck, even PK'ing if you wanted to. Noted raw mackerel drop...

xpx Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 many people posting here discussing about the prices always forget that this bow is a slayer monster drop. What does this mean to the prices? well, if the dark bow is similar to the abyssal whip- best bow there is(better than msb) and the droprate is also similar, there is no way the price could end up lover than the abyssal whip. Why? Only 90+ slayers can kill dark beasts, and if they do, they are doing it only for the money- and if dark beasts were LESS profitable than abyssal demons, not a single soul would bother killing dark beasts. So no- the bow will never be cheap- it probobly wont ever even drop below 2m, unless ofcource there will be a better bow. It will be just like the beloved abyssal whip- only few could buy them at the beginning, but as time went past, they kept lowering and lowering, they still do, but no- it will still never be a cheap bow.

Fred_S Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 Well i will use it for pking if it protects over hides and archer helm, most likely can it fire any arrow so its most likely better bonus than the msb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A requirement will make the bow obviously more POWERFUL then the MSB (the spec will be up for debate in the PK deparement). But it will not be better then the C bow or x bow in terms of stats. The price will be high but only because of the small amount in the game. Dark bow will only be useful for training and possibly castlewars and minigames. It will be the best, non-costly bow in the game, but from its look it's a longbow, and who the heck uses long bows #-o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
