@Dan3HitU Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 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?

Shadiochao Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ezz Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 Yeah, that's quite odd, but it makes me think that there's something more to them. [insert birds flying in a circle here]Yes, that sig was annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Star_Fox Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blutters Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 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.

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.

What I see is that you keep refering them as junk without any stastics. 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. 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. Anyway I think people would use those weapons for their specials not for normal training.
