Either I'm really bad at maths and have worked this out wrong or Jagex have the prices wrong...

 

 

 

Example:

 

Corrupt Statius's Warhammer: 551.1K (15 minutes right?)

 

Statius's Warhammer: 10.5M (1 hour right?)

 

 

 

If you x4 the Corrupt one: 2,204.4m (2.2m) this is a HUGE money saver to buy 4 of them and the stats are the exact same right?

Yeah that doesn't make sense =/

 

But it also doesn't make sense how a level 20 armour and weapons would be exactly the same as a 78 one. Either the knowledge base doesn't explain it all, or Jagex didn't think this through

Yeah, that's quite odd, but it makes me think that there's something more to them.

hmm,thats weird.

 

 

 

i think there is something more behind it,not sure what

The corrupt weapons do not have a special attack.

sums up the topic. but it's still not worth spending 9.8m over. the weapons itself serves a pretty good purpose.

Why would people would pay oodles for a weapon with a special attack and lasts an hour is basically what your asking. Well all I can say is people are dumb,desperate,ill informed, and did I mention realy dumb?

I think it's because of the demand from the hype. Just wait, and it'll die down eventually.

Pretty much my thoughts. People are ignorant to the fact that they last an hour.

I would've expected some sort of set effect since these are almost exactly like Barrows armors in regards to uniform appearance, power, "ancientness", and coming from one person's super stash.

Corrupt Statius's Warhammer: 15 min (once you start equiping it, the 15 min will start)

 

Statius's Warhammer: 60 min of combat (when you start equiping it and you are not in combat, the 60 min will not start).

Ya but with the money I spend on that 1 staff for 60 minutes of combat I could buy 21 corrupted for 5.25 hours of combat. The corrupted are a better bang for your buck any way you put it.

It depend on cirumstances, you can't really presume that every single minutes of using those 21 corrupted staffs that you are doing dmg without any lapse in-between.

 

 

 

Also, I use my staff to spam the occassional misamic barrage and switch to master wand to do ice barrage, it really depends on how you are going to attack.

 

 

 

Even for let says the weapon, if you are using them just for the special:

 

 

 

Special Energy recovers from 0% to 100%= 5 min

 

One corrupted weapon= 15 min = 3 specials

 

21 corrupted weapons= 3 * 21= 63 specials

 

 

 

One weapon= 60 min of combat

 

It took the most 5 secs to use a special and switch back.

 

Amount of uses of special per non-corrupted weapon= 720

 

Even if you take 10 secs to do a special you can still do 360 special with your weapon, which is alot more than the corrupted weapons.

Corrupt Weapons lack a special attack. :?

My bad, I was trying to uses an example to say why corrupted version is not better.

 

 

 

I'm more of a supporter of using the non-corrupted version. I've only tried the non-corrupted version, didn't bother to try the corrupted version.

 

 

 

Anyway I think people would use those weapons for their specials not for normal training.

Yeah... I plan to buy a staff once they drop a few mil. I don't think any of these items are worth more than 4m, because of their limited longevity.

If you want to buy for the special then you must buy the expensive version. Thats the only circumstance where it is better. Otherwise if you want to us it for a weapon don't waste your money on that 1 hour junk. As the guy said the corrupted don't have specials.

And you were saying how good corrupted version is when you compared the corrupted ones with the non-corrupted version?

 

 

 

Lol, forcing your opinion onto some other people isn't really nice. What I see is that you keep refering them as junk without any stastics.

thread summary: all the weapons are useless to buy at their current lvls.

So wait, once you use one of these weapons for a few seconds, are they trade-able again? Do they completely disintegrate after an hour's use?

Well I'd like you to define forcing because last I checked I was putting input and influencing decisions not forcing decisions. Also they are the exact same thing except for the special and if you read the post above it says unless you want the special don't buy the non corrupted. Also when you say keep refering to them as junk meens continuely and that was the first time. They are just a waste if you don't care for the special. Thats it in a nutshell and no way can you argue that it's not.

They're like forging rings I believe.

Nah. Some guy on here got Zuriel's Staff, said he used it once and was out on 10m because he couldn't trade it anymore.

Recently i bought some corrupt morrigan javelins in the ge for max price, and i have some information:

 

1) In a ffa safe arena, they drop and don't seem to be returnable, even with ava accumulator

 

2) They only have special in pvp worlds i think....that, or the actual morrigan javelins have specials

 

3) 105 range bonus=a scared Eagle Tas when i hit 25 first go -.-

 

 

 

Hopefully this helps. I forgot to take a piccie though......was testing them too fast >_>

That's the where the confusion start, when a discussion on melee weapon ends up with you dragging the staff as an example.

That's why I said this after saying how the weapon is better to be use for it's special:

 

 

I'm more of a supporter of using the non-corrupted version. I've only tried the non-corrupted version, didn't bother to try the corrupted version.

Try not to twist the argument back against me?
