Madouge Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 So with these new rune crossbows, can anyone give any advice whether its faster to train ranged with a rune crossbow and bronze bolts than with a magic shortbow and bronze arrows?

hardwick246 Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 It is because the Rune Crossbow gives +90 range which is 20+ points more than the Magic Shortbow's +69 range. Plus the crossbow is one handed so you can fight dragon's with the anti-dragonfire shield or even use a Zammorak book for more range bonus. The only con is the price of the bolts and the ability to obtain them. Hope I have helped. : Need help or advise? Have a question? Just PM me through Runescape or Tip.it. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRUMINATOR17 Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 well from what im hearing is that the speed is a great deal faster and only a pinch slower then a mage short bow. And if you have a zammy book / unholy book that you will can wield with your rune cross bow... Well that there is 98 ranged attack bonus compared to the 69 of a Mage shortbow... So other then that its all up to personal preference Ya silly noob CLICK - 770th to 99 SLAYER 2/4/08 - 204th to 99 Summoning 7/1/08 CLICK[Hide=List of Drops That I haven't updated in Years but want to keep in my Sig anyways...]VISAGE DROP - 12/06/073 Duo Sara Hilts, 3 Duo Arma Hilts, 2 Trio Arma Hilts.Dark Bows: (11) Dragon Boots: (50!)Whip Drops: (42!!!)
