You also forget Longs are much more versitile than scims. Scims can only do meanwhile damage with slash, whereas longs can do some very nice stab damage too.

I don't think you can do that, ask which weapon is better.

 

 

 

for example, as you said, a 2Hander can be awesome for combos.

 

 

 

you could also take a mace for it's prayer bonus when this really matters (also, dragon mace can hit high :P).

 

 

 

scimitar can be pretty good for training, not too slow, yet pretty good damage.

 

 

 

and ofcours daggers (especialy DDS), can be awesome as a side weapon, especialy with DDS' special (ofcours poison too).

 

 

 

and let us not forget there are spears too, which could also be nice, and dragon spear could be good for a moderate player to use for running away (for it's special).

 

 

 

I could go on and on with this, the point is --> you can't pick one weapon and say "hey that's the best one".

 

 

 

This discussion is about normal metal weapons. Not dragon. Dragon is different because of special attacks.

 

 

 

It IS true there is no one that is always better. We can only say overall. There are situations where certain ones are better.
