d3nic Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 Hello. Can someone please give me information about the dragon axes... Are they much better at cutting than rune? I heard that they cut 15% faster? Is this true? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gun_hippy Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 Hello. Can someone please give me information about the dragon axes... Are they much better at cutting than rune? I heard that they cut 15% faster? Is this true? Thanks. I'm not sure if jagex ever said exactly how much faster they are, but general consensus is 15%, and yes they do cut faster. However i've heard everything from 10-50% faster. All i know of jagex ever saying is (22 August 2006 news post): Dragon Axe improved Until today the dragon axe was only as good at cutting trees as a rune axe. We've now made it slightly better! However we have raised the woodcutting level requirement for chopping trees with this axe to 61. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master_Smither Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 If i remember correctly they said 40k-50k% when i sent in a query about it. But they are better and worth the extra $ if you need to woodcut.

Umega Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 If you plan on woodcutting for a long time, then the dragon axe is definitly a safe bet to buy. No longer playing Runescape, I caught the WoW bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d3nic Posted July 19, 2007 Author Share Posted July 19, 2007 Cheers guys ! I managed to get one for 2.5Mil (Bargain! People are buying them for 2.85 on forums! ^^) I went to cut willows to see for my self and it seems so much faster than a rune axe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

007freak Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 i doubt a dragon axe is worth it if you are cutting willows, those are going to be fast no matter what, if you were saying yews or magics it would make more sense. [/url] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm cutting willows to 99 right now, and the switch from a rune axe to a dragon axe was a noticeable difference. I have heard it increases speed by 2.5%, maybe I'm wrong. It seemed to increase by at least 10%, probably more. perfect grammar is one thing, typing like a drugged monkey and enjoying it is anotherAMEN!

Athfrox Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 well d ax is alot but pretty good and worth it if u are gonna be wcing alot. a couple days ago i was wcing with my 78wc friend and i had let him use my d ax for awhile.i was using rune while he was borrowing my d one. and we were matching eachother load for load. so all i can say is a 78wcer with a d ax cuts as fast as a 87wcer with a rune ax edit:lol i was 86 wc at the time :-# Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
