Zamorak Godsword special attack

[z0diark]

A quick question, I was wondering whether every time the zgs special attack was used, is the target always frozen regardless of whether the wielder hits or not? i.e. if somebody uses the zgs special on me, will it freeze me even if they hit a zero? Also, I assume that the best defence against this special attack is to use the protect from melee prayer rather than protect from magic (sorry if that sounds like a stupid question).

 

 

 

Thanks in advance :)

i believe it always freezes no matter what, and it is protect from melee

Aha thanks very much. I thought it must be able to splash otherwise it'd be unlike any other special in the game. I guess I was just unlucky that the guy's spec hit me each of the three times I left his base at castle wars :P

 

 

 

If anyone else has anything else to add I'd be very grateful to hear your comments, especially as its currently technically 1-1 either way.

Ya when I or some friends use it on Zilyana on a Sara GW trip it only sometimes freezes her. Still a great spec

 

 

 

Not sure which prayer is better to stop it
