bgs or dragon scimitar?

Featured Replies

What's the better weapon for slayer: bgs or dragon scimmy? I use sumona, so most of her tasks are pretty low level. I like the high hits of the bgs, but I don't know if the dragon scimmy makes up for low hits with speed, so which one is better?

 

 

 

And vs. abby demons, which one is better?

 

 

 

Note: the dragon scimmy is with rune defender

A whip.

EDIT - Signature far exceeds our sig limits but since it's so colourful you can keep it.

no whip...got 99 attack and don't want defence...

personally i find the d long is much much better, almost the same speed as the scimmy but better stats.

 

it depends on what monster your fighting, but in most cases the bgs would be better than the scimmy.

With BGS you would hit higher and would be more fun....but i believe scimmy would be faster + you can use a shield <3:

use a sara sword for training str not bgs. I have both and SS way out performs it for slayer/training. I use bgs for gwd

yeah..I can't afford ss without selling my bgs which i need for boss hunting

then my advice is use a obby sword with a zerker necklace on lunge. also use a defender with it of course

but doesn't that give controlled xp? right now i want to keep my defence where it is.

  • Author

If I used the obby shield+defender+zerker necklace, would that equal a whip in training? and the zerker would stack with a slayer helm right?

Yes they stack and it trains strength with the same max hit as a whip. (around)

oh thanks so much. I think i'll go try it out now.

  • Author

wait, but won't the accuracy still be very low? would bgs still work better on abby demons or would obby sword?

Use a bgs on high defence monsters like abby demons and dragons (if you are willing to take the risk, its much funner and faster). But most slayer assignments has no defence at all.

  • Author

ok, thanks

dont use a bgs on dragons...or even abyssals for that matter lol. just use a scim till you make enough money for a ss...wont take all that much time. but a bgs would be much more entertaining.... ::'

so on abbysals, would the drag scimmy+ rune def work better than obby sword+rune def+zerker neck?

Scim scim scim scim!

 

 

 

I never used obby weapons with a berserker necklace, but the -attack won't help, even if you have 99.

[hide=This is what you look like when you play RS too long]2vvq0z4.jpg[/hide]

A whip.

 

 

 

Just train controlled, get past 99.

 

 

 

He doesn't want defense exp, and he has 99 attack already. He clearly wants Strength exp, so why not have it faster, instead of *your* boring, uncreative, slow way?

 

 

 

Saradomin Sword if you can afford, otherwise Dragon Scimitar.

scim fails horribly compared to everything pretty much.

 

d long is waaay better. plus it's spec actually works.

A whip.

If he doesn't want str xp, fine. But boring and slow? False and false.

D long fails against a D scim + Dds. win.
