Rune Defender or Dragon Square?

Featured Replies

Hey,

 

I'm wondering what is better for general use, rune defender or a dragon square? Also, what quest is needed to use the dragon square? Thanks

Well, for some monsters(like Fire Giants for example)you would want better crush defence. So I would go with the d square for them. Other monsters, I would use the defender. And to get the d square,you have to finish Legends,buy the right half from some guy and either get the left half as a drop or buy it.

99s(in order): Attack Constitution Defence

I just use a rune defender for everything. Even if it's multicombat or a high level monster, I don't really care. It never fails me.

 

 

 

You'll have to finish Legend's quest to wield a dragon square.

I would go with a Rune Defender about 99% of the time. There are no situations where I can see myself using a D[] and not being able to use a defender.

 

 

 

What he said about Fire Giants, I still use my defender there and use guthans to heal. They don't hit that often, I find, and are not that hard to heal on using guthans. If you don't have access to guthans well thats why I gave the defender 99% of the time there is always that 1% just in case certain situations arise.

Apparently, my signature was to big.

A dragon square is kinda useless. It has only slightly higher defense bonuses than a rune berserker shield, which has only slightly higher defense bonuses than a Toktz-ket-xil. If you need high defense, use an obsidian shield or a rune berserker shield, or if you need something cheap, a rune kite shield. Of course, if you can afford it, the dragonfire shield is the best shield in the game for defense, although it is debatable that the rune defender is better than it for normal training also.

Defender always.

 

 

 

Use Guthan's/Bunyip to heal.

 

 

 

The only other shield I would consider is the Dragonfire Shield but that's a bit expensive.
