Anti-Rune Melee

[Balazeal]

What is the best F2P weapon to use against Rune armored opponents? Rune Warhammer?Rune Battle Axe?Rune 2h?

[Troacctid]

Full rune is weakest against crush attacks, if you don't count magic. So a battleaxe or warhammer is a good choice.

If you're looking for higher hits, yeah warhammer/baxe ftw. But scimitars are generally used for speed because they hit faster and relatively close to the max hit of a warhammer/baxe, maybe off by 1-2. Its all on you preference. If you have a lower attack, get a warhammer/baxe because you'll want to HIT your opponent.

well if u use this equation i got from the web...

 

 

 

(att bonus(in the att style)+str bonus+prayer bonus)/speed*

 

 

 

speed:

 

dagger:1

 

short swords:1.25

 

Scims:1.3

 

longsword and mace:1.5

 

battlehammer/axe:1.75

 

2h:2------>2h requires 2h -.- so its not recommended by the website if its a 1one1 or the enemy is attacking you

 

 

 

so this way u can find out all the scores for the rune weapons, and then take it away from the rune armour's defense bonuses

 

 

 

dagger:49........................-158

 

short sword:62.................-145

 

scim:68...........................-141

 

long sword:64..................-145

 

mace:53.........................-139

 

battlehammer:58...............-134

 

battleaxe:61....................-131

 

2h:70..............................-137

 

 

 

 

 

as you can see by the final scores, battleax is actually better than scim in a rune against rune situation. I tried this out at cw and it actually seems to work. However if you are facing a noob then u can use a scim and cut him down quick, and if you are piling someone you can use 2h if ur not being attacked.
