Slayer_Jesse Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 in GENERAL, day to day useage, i like sgs the best. as far as im concerned, Saradomin, then Bandos, then Armadyl, Then Zamorak. the only thing about sgs is that is not good as an gwd attacker sword, (it owns at dks tho) your better off with band or arma there. for bosshunting i prefer bandos, as if you manage to get a decent hit (20+) it will be much eiaser to kill that boss. Zammy is nearly useless, as MOST people who can afford a godsword have a decent mage level. [hide=Siggy credits]The Awesome, Epic, Amazing, S3xah A-10 Sig By Unolexi!

Robot919 Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 I actually beat a level 110 guy in Duel Arena (me with bgs and torag's plate + verac's skirt, he with full bandos and AGS) twice. The defense lowering I would say is better than a bit more damage. Haven't found a use for ZGS yet so I can't say anything good about it. Sara GS good for slayer. so: For PvP: Bgs > Ags > Zgs (> SS) > Sgs For Training and slayer: Sgs > Bgs > Ags > Zgs For Big Bosses (except KBD'): Bgs > Ags > Sgs > Zgs Overall: Bgs: 11 points :thumbup: Ags: 8 points :thumbup: Sgs: 7 points :thumbup: Zgs: 4 points :thumbdown: FAIL ZGS is mainly used for Castle Wars.

yakkun Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 My ranking is Saradomin Bandos Zamorak Armadyl. I find nothing useful in a special attack that simply raises damage. A freezing special can be put to use in interesting ways, depending how the wielder is fighting. The defense lowering power of Bandos is, to me, by far the best effect for PVP combat, but healing takes the cake. I have 95 attack, and my specials with my SGS practically never miss. At the very least, the thing is a free shark per special bar, and as it restores prayer, I piety for specs with it, often hitting over 40. The Zebera is getting faster!

Abc1230 Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 I don't actually have a godsword, but I'm pretty sure they all have exactly the same stats and all use 100% of the special attack bar. Is that extra couple of damage every few minutes really worth the extra 20m? If I could afford any, I'd get the cheapest one. YouTube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miner52289 Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 SGS is by far the the best for Slayer. I think we can all agree on that. If you don't, you're an idiot or have never used it. Now, as far as PvP goes I would say AGS is the best because of the lethal power of it's two specs. ZGS in a PvP situation would be good on someone who you know for a fact only melees because you can freeze them, take a step back, and either Miasmic/Blood Barrage or Dragonstone bolt them to death while they sit there in a block of ice. I don't have a clue which one would be best in Castle Wars cuz I'm never there.

Kasalisk Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 I like ZGS (freezing people in cwars) but I guess that would get old so I think SGS for Slayer or just random monster killing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owned_Nex Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 I Rank them Saradomin Arma BGS ZGS Sara is all round good, as it allows for two specials, healing very good, and hitting nicely. Its useful for cheap and fast healing. Arma is good for the hits. Two lucky specs will k0 anybody. Dungeoneering isn't a skill. I'm faster than bots at Sorceress Garden. PM me if you want to chat.

mmmcannibalism Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Saradomin Arma BGS/zgs I have to agree, sara is the most diverse in useage. Arma is overall the best pking sword, and then bandos and zgs are variable based on a per person basis. Orthodoxy is unconciousnessthe only ones who should kill are those who are prepared to be killed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0bl1v10nmage Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 Tbh, armadyl is the most worthwhile godsword The only reason I would dump a load of cash for a godsword is for the sheer hitting ability Saradomin godsword- healing. There's guthans for that which is much better for consistent healing and costs way less Zamorak godsword- freeze. Ice barrage can do that, and you don't have to wait for a special bar. Bandos godsword- cheapest, which is the main reason people buy it. I definitely don't see myself chosing it over armadyl.

Moneyna Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 Imo AGS - best cause of the high damage you can deal : Sgs - cause you can heal and maybe win vs other higher, lower lvls (possibly in clan wars and such minigames) Zgs - Probably the most gs you can have fun with , cause you use special on people and look at them getting mad for becoming and ice cube and having to wait :) Bgs - best cause if you get lucky for a high spec you can easily defeat your opponent. 1 Place --> ags since high damage on opponent is VERY useful. 2 Place --> bgs since if you get lucky (but sometimes very hard to get lucky) and spec high , you have a high chance of killing. 3 Place --> sgs of course cause of healing. 4 Place --> zgs it's more kind of a fun weapon then a serious fighting weapon ;) Sweetness in life - Friends Bad Friends - sourness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

langer Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Having to rely on nearby monsters to heal is kinda meh especially when slaying. I have to say that SGS is my specing weapon when slaying except when fighting dragons.

sparky1_2007 Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 im going to have to say AGS is the best. but im indifferent for the ZGS too. AGS is really nice, because if i get 2 good specs off at sara gwd with it hitting 60+ each time, ive already taken zil down to half hp in 3 seconds. that makes for a quick kill and I can make it easier on my team that kill. for the ZGS i can use it's spec to stop sara in her tracks for 20 seconds and let me range her freely without having to run away if she decides to target me. and ofcourse SGS is the absolute best for slayer, hands down. and it is also useful for the ranger at sara/bandos or w/e where you dont need to hit high on the boss, but you need to heal periodicly, because pony/titan/w/e cant keep up for it. but im being 100% honest here, BGS is complete garbage. maybe if it had 2 specs it'd be good, but 1 spec for a 10% damage increase and defence lowering is nice, but you'd be better off saving a little bit more for a ZGS or Dragon claws for the freeze or higher hits. retired 12-31-09 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HydroZerker Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 AGS:really good finishing special when soloing say a KBD BGS:I guess its a good accompanying godsword as a fellow clan member always was a defensive person with this weapon.Not much testing was done SGS:REALLY REALLY GOOD SPECIAL.Worthy of the name Godsword ZGS:Also really good special.But more for people who have low mage and cant use ancient magiks.Also Zamorak is my favorite god in runescape Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
llamster Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 AGS is effectively obsolete due to d claws; the only reason to use it is that it's less risky and even then you can be smited out. SGS is easily the most useful of the four. Ah, this reminds me about the noob on the Runescape forums who was upset with the quest "Cold War" because apparently his grandparents died in the war. :wall: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yuriqiu Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 Zammy is nearly useless, as MOST people who can afford a godsword have a decent mage level. Have you tried barraging Zilyana? I dare you to bring 100m worth of runes there and try barrage her to death. After that screeny your death and allow me to get a good laugh. ZGS is far more useful than most people would believe. SGW is the most profitable out of all the gwd (as you can easily get 100+ kill/trip) and zgs will make a sgw trip much easier. BGS spec imo is very unreliable, I'd rather use a whip/defender. SGS healing/prayer restore means I can now melee Zilyana without brining 1 piece of food or prayer restoring item. I actually went sgwing with sgs once and managed 100+ kills off 2 dose of brew and 1 dose of restore (with guthan because I too understand its not good to rely purely on sgs to heal) AGS = pvper's best friend. Recently got one even though I was an AGS critic. I now favor it over my old ZGS in cw due to the amazing ko potential. Also, 2 chance to spec on the flag holder is alot better than 1 chance.
