Dragon Claws or Dragon Dagger (p++), which do you prefer?

I have found that d claws are great for pvp, but that the dds is better for pvm (and, yes, that does mean I have my own d claws).

 

 

 

I so totally think you're right. I wish i had invested in them as soon as they came out...my friend bought 11 min price around midday the day they came out.

 

 

 

I know the d claws spec is way better than the dds, plus it has a better str bonus. That kinda settles it. The only thing is when i wanna poison a monster that is hard to kill, else claws almost always win.

 

 

 

Although, one could take both and use two dds specs to poison and 1 claws spec to get a good hit. Or just use all dds specs and wait for the spec bar to come back and use claws spec.

 

 

 

Do you have to do damage with DDS to poisen? Or can I just hit 0?

 

@dpattle: The reason I think the dds is better for pvm lies in the fact that (slayer) monsters generally have little to no defense which makes the dds's higher max the better choice. However, it could also be argued that the use of 2 d claw specs + 2 hits with a whip > 4 dds specs. I think I'll test this out on my current slayer assignment (black demons) and, if I remember, post the results here.

 

 

 

@1245780: I am pretty sure you have to do damage to poison. I have never heard of anyone doing otherwise and any guide that mentions the use of poison, in my experience, also mentions that damage must be done for the poison to take affect.

 

 

 

I see, i'm not too sure myself but i dont think you HAVE to do damage to poison. Theres the possibility i'm wrong though. But the first thing that comes to mind is The sara mage on lvl 3 clues. he poison's me and yet usually doesn't hit anything while he does. Maybe thats just for him though...just to make sure you're poisoned or something...lolz.

I myself could not see spending so much money on dclaws with a possibility of losing them. If you have a huge bank value then sure..have some fun, but if you could afford comfortably but not with a huge amount to spare I would definately go with my trusty dds.

I like the dds, obviously cause the claws are way overpriced. I also don't like that claws can't be poisoned. Either way, I'd only use them for specs and then switch to another weapon.

claws. this is not even a question; its like comparing gold to crap.

As I said I would, I tried comparing 4 dds specs with 2 d claw specs and 2 whip hits on black demons and what I found was that 4 dds specs > 2 d claw specs every time by a margin of about 40 hits. With that in mind I think it's safe to say that, when in a fight where it's all about hitting hard, the dds is better (since I don't, on average, hit 20+ with my whip) than d claws. However, when in a fight where KO potential is a must, then the d claws are better.

 

 

 

 

 

EDIT: My prediction for when d claws will crash is 25 mill. As such, I just sold my d claws for 21.7 mill. Because I did this, the price of d claws is now set to reach 40 mill. #-o :XD:
