A lot of these posts run along the line of 'if money were no object'....... frankly, it is, so I say that the BGS has a lot of merit.

Others: I'd love to be able to let you know.

ags by far and heres why

 

 

 

bgs has 1 spec instead of the ags's 2 specs and hits less than the ags also a sup def pot can easily fix any effects the bgs has on you

 

 

 

zgs well kinda useless how is one spec freezeing someone any use wh nyou can just use ice barrage

 

 

 

sgs well thats useless too what do you think food is for??

 

 

 

so clearly ags wins with two hard hitting specs

No, hard hits isn't everything. For something like slayer, would you really want to waste your special attacks on an extra 10 damage?

 

 

 

Bgs is out of the question, it's a very inaccurate special and is beaten by the Ags in every way. But, I believe Sgs is most useful in general, when slaying. Sure, you can bring food, but isn't lasting longer somewhere better than lasting shorter? Ags is good for PvP, it's one item, has a good special attack, regular hits can still KO. Zgs, well, it's not a very good weapon, except in two situations, those being Saradomin Gwd and Cwars. Zilyana is very resistant to magic, so ancients won't do much good. I've seen alot of players who hold the flag the Castlewars wear heavily magic resistant armour, so whipping out a Zgs for a high hit and freezing would be amazingly useful.

 

 

 

To summarise, I believe the Sgs is the most all round, Slayer's Godsword. The Bgs just fails hard, inaccurate special that does nothing better than an Ags, the only good thing about it is it's price being low. Zgs is useful, limited to 2 situations, being SGwd and C'wars. Ags is just the PvP weapon, amazingly high hitting special attacks, 2 specials that could max high, is one item and the normal attacks hits high.

I think sgs, but then again all I do is slayer and the others do not have as much benefits for slayer.

A lot of people are going off topic, this thread is about which godsword you like the best or think is the best. Saying stuff like sgs is not good because guthans, bunyip, (e) Excalibur, etc. is better, is off-topic. Last time I checked those items were not godswords. Again the thread is called "Which godsword", not "Which item in all of the game".

 

 

 

All the godswords can be equal good, but it just depends on what the person dose a lot

 

 

 

Ags is so expensive since people like the way it owns in pvp

 

Sgs is the seconded most expensive since it is a nice perk for slayer and npc killing.

 

 

 

 

 

There is more demand for a high hitting weapon then a healing weapon as far as I can see.

Well when choosing your favourite godsword you obviously have to take into consideration the overal usefulness of it. If you can cheaply mimic the effects of one godsword then it isn't going to be your favourite one. So the inclusion of other items is necessary in discerning which godsword is your favourite.

there is no best. they all have their individual applications and uses

 

 

 

however, i like sara gwd and as such, i use zgs or sgs, for monster protections, and zgs to hold zil, and sgs if im running low on prayer before i can use altar again

I'm gonna be walking down an alley in varrock, and walka is going to walk up to me in a trench coat and say "psst.. hey man, wanna buy some sara brew"

walka92- retired with 99 in attack, strength, defence, health, magic, ranged, prayer and herblore and 137 combat. some day i may return to claim 138 combat, but alas, that time has not yet come

Yes, but how godswords compare to similar items even if they are not godswords should also be taken into consideration.

O.O

Not if youre choosing your favorite, regardless of what items have to do with it.

 

 

 

If you pick your favorite car you don't say "My favorite car is a Buggy because its cheaper than a Ferrari". Instead you say "My Favorite Car is a Ferrari because its fast and cool, but I can't afford it right now.....but its still my favorite."

 

 

 

If someone offered to lend you a sgs would you take it or would you say nty I like my Cheapie but almost as good (e) Excalibur. I know I would say Thank you, I would love to use a sgs for the time being, I dont have to pay for it after all.

Well if there would be a new sword that can hit 90s, then ags obviously wouldn't be my favourite godsword anymore.

To try to explain to you that you do have to consider non-godsword items to decide what is your favourite godsword.

If there was a new sword that hit 90 that still wouldn't change the point of the thread, It would still be "Which godsword, not "Which godsword and the sword that hits 90".

 

 

 

Also just because someone picks Sgs dosn't mean you have the right to tell them that thats a bad choice because of other items. Last time I checked "opions' still exist.

 

 

 

Fact: My "opinion" is that Sgs is fun and useful to use on slayer task.

A-B-S-ZGS.

 

KO potential > lowering opponent's Defence and relatively low costs > Healing that can be done by EE > a free Ice Barrage with your hit.

I've used each Godsword, and I made my decision last week by buying an SGS. So far, it's been the best decision I ever made. Now I don't have all that money sitting there collecting dust, and I have a perfect compliment to bunyips. I've even been able to forgo bringing a Bunyip and have done an entire Bloodveld task just healing with the SGS.

 

 

 

Since I'm a GodWars tank and Bandos a lot, it's definitely made the difference between a 60KC trip and a 70. I pretty much bring it everywhere with me (no need to worry about prayer points on a clue), and when I'm off for the night I can get a free 50k by lending it in world 2 for a few hours. :mrgreen:

This.

 

Although I've only used BGS and Sara as I'm against lending without I have to (I own a BGS and lent a SGS for tanking).

 

 

 

Although I'd much rather have 2 BGS's (lending 1 out all the time to gain about 25k per hour without much hassle), bandos top and bottoms and a load of supplies then a AGS.

 

 

 

For boss hunting BGS is better then AGS 9/10 times as 1 BGS spec will allow you to get the kill with ease and depending on the world its 1 spec per 2/3 kills so with 3 BGS'er you'll have a very easy time. The high hits of AGS are nice as a anti crashing thing but with a BGS spec you really get above a 50.

 

 

 

ZGS is the most pointless for me as I don't do Sara and I prefer to KO or lower someones defense in a minigame like Cwars.

I would have to say the Saradomin Godsword. The healing special can be very useful and I have to say, it does look sexy. Sure with the Armadyl Godsword you can deal out more damage, but it really doesn't make that much more of a difference. If someone is low hitpoints a Saradomin Godsword can kill them just as well while securing your safety (it heals you).

as said multiple times each godsword have its own use, but IMO i think the sgs are the "best" gs for me atleast. the spec is pretty handy for almost every kind of monster killing, all from slayer to gwd.

New summon monster. You get 99 summon and complete a hard quest to gain the ability to summon Jesus, who splits the waters allowing you to walk to a new port town where you unlock the sailing skill. Obviously ;)

 

That was Moses you idiot.

 

That gets fixed in the bugfix the following week. Maybe.
