November 27, 200817 yr I wanted dragon claws, couldn't get them through the GE, so I attempted to get them as a drop. I succeeded. [hide=][/hide] Been testing them at the duel arena for a while now. They're so overpowered it's not even funny. Seriously, you thought barrage+dds combo was bad? This is much, much worse. They're more accurate, They have more str, They have every bit as much def as dds+defender, and they essentially unleash 2 dds specials in one. Needless to say, I've been quite the center of attention when I have these babies on. That's not a good thing in runescape :P Anyway, rate/hate.

November 27, 200817 yr Author 10/10, epic. When I do quest, wanna go duo da tormented demon? Pl0x? I'd love to... when the GE prices adjust. CS'd Dclaws = fail. :P
November 27, 200817 yr Author I think I overreacted about the D claws; slightly. It seems that whenever you hit all 4 of them the first 3 add up to the 4th hit. So it really can't do any more damage than a DDS spec. HOWEVER, it's much more powerful than a DDS spec. Whereas with a DDS you get a lot of bad specials, with this that doesn't seem to happen very often. As a matter of fact, I can't think of a single time where all 4 splats hit where I didn't hit for 40-50+ damage.

Anyways awesome drop, I call dibs on the next one you get! ^_^ Hacked on January 5, 2007 --> Lost: 56.4M, Santa Hat, Purple Partyhat, Green Partyhat, Christmas Crackerpeople who get rich and do it legit like joob and I always get f'd over in the end.
November 28, 200817 yr Author Nice! Do you need that hard quest to wear em? or is it just 60 attack? 10/10 I lent it to someone who hadn't done the quest so yes, you can wield them without the quest. Oddly though she said she didn't have a special attack bar on them. So it's possible that you just can't use the spec without the quest; which, I guess kinda makes it useless because it's a spec weapon. *Points at your 99 Attack + Strength.* Don't give nubs like me without 99 (Or close to) Attack/Strength hope. :? That wasn't exactly my point. The point was I was consistently hitting at around my maximum hit. With a DDS, even with 99 attack and strength I will still, annoyingly, get crappy specs like 5-7 or something. But with this crappy specs happen far, far less often (again, when they actually hit; not counting the 0s); certainly less often enough to justify having only two specs whose maximum damage is only slightly higher that of a DDS + defender.
November 28, 200817 yr You just won the game. Three months banishment to 9gag is something i would never wish upon anybody, not even my worst enemy.
November 28, 200817 yr Is it good enough to have the price exceed 1-2M and maintain that price? Hacked on January 5, 2007 --> Lost: 56.4M, Santa Hat, Purple Partyhat, Green Partyhat, Christmas Crackerpeople who get rich and do it legit like joob and I always get f'd over in the end.
November 28, 200817 yr Author Is it good enough to have the price exceed 1-2M and maintain that price? I don't know; depends on how rare of a drop it actually is. I might have gotten insanely lucky for all I know. It's better than the DDS as a spec weapon imho, but I'm not sure if that justifies it being worth so much. It's total rubbish as a regular weapon.

You're certainly correct.

November 28, 200817 yr 10/10 :) Very nice luck. If they're as powerful as you say, they will probably get "nerfed" as it were by Jagex. :roll:

December 8, 200817 yr Author Thought I'd bump this topic with dragon drop #3 :) So yeah, I winned at the demons again. GF. I didn't even use one brew on that particular demon :P
December 8, 200817 yr Congrats, are they still as busy as they were the first few days the quest was released? I want to try them out again. :P Good luck getting more claws. :
