skylor12344 Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 i was trying to decide which one i should get first because i know hitting high is really nice but its not that great if you cant hit often. 80 attack 83 strength Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patr1ck Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Get both to 90, then decide which one will be more useful. 97 strength is almost the same as 99, so if your up for it get 97 strength and then 99 attack. Goodluck : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danqazmlp Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 I was 99 att at 84 str and got exp fast and nicely, and it was great to be hitting people all the time. You can still hit good 25+'s at 83 str so its not NEEDED to get to a higher level first really. Want to be my friend?

Zaaps1 Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 From someone who has 99 strength...99 attack is better. The extra xp you have in strength doesn't matter, get 99 attack. Honestly hitting the extra like 5 doesn't mean anything in the long run if you can't hit at all. 99 attack is better than 99 strength. ~It's Super Effective!

T. Skill Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Get 99 attack first, hands down. Hitting consistently is better than hitting high 1/4 of the time. Pirate Rosetta stone.

llamster Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 99 strength would increase your xp rate more than 99 attack (since most monsters worth training on have low defence anyway), but getting both would be ideal. 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...
Yomyth105 Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 if eventually u would both level them i dont think it would matter at all what path u take. whether it be balancing them or simply to get one first than the other. i think that maybe strength would be good at first so u can show of the max hits and people seem to care or get more fascinated with str levels rather than other combat levels.

doomy Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 If you're training on slayer go attack then str, but power levling vs low def creatures go str, higher attack won't matter then. Then do attack after. Also, the one extra point higher in strength you can hit, the more chance you have of hitting higher, what I eman is with a max hit of 35 you're gonna hit 20+ more often then with a max hit of 30. But yeah both are nice, I prefer strength though, as I just like hitting higher :P Doomy edit: I like sheep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cptbaker08 Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Instead of seeing which will benefit you more, see it as which way would be more convenient? With getting 99 attack you can use an abyssal whip + (insert good shield item here), with 99 strength you have either the option of a dragon scimmy + (insert good shield item here) or a sara sword, if you have the money. For me it came down to me rather train with a whip instead of a scimmy/ss. Or if you want use a whip and train it on control so you can get att/str/def and hp exp at once, but this will take long to get 99 but will round out your combat stats a little more.

Miner52289 Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 I got 99 attack first. I'm going for 99 defense next. There is a noticeable difference in how often you hit at 99 atk and 90 atk. Strength can wait. Also IMO 99 def > 99 str. At 97 i'm getting hit waaaaay less often than at 85.

ilovecardj Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Max hits are highly affected by gear over str level. WIth good gear/set up, a level 85 str will out hit a 99. use good set ups and get 99 attack, then you will be more accurate and get better exp when you train str, which weapons are less accurate then a whip Dragon Drops: 80+ boots, 7 med, 3 skirt, 2 left half, 2 Spear, 2 2hSlayer: 30+ whips, 4 Bows, 1 Mask, 3 Granite Legs, 1 Visage (Wyverns)Notable GWD Splits: Bandos Tassets: 12, Bandos Chest: 11, Bandos Hilt: 2Proud Slayer of 99 Att/Str/Def/HP/Range/Summoning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
