Dragon Scimitar, Barrelchest Anchor, Bandos Agility Arena...

Featured Replies

When was the bone crossbow slowed down? What was the magic shortbow like before the nerf? I don't remember the barrelchest anchor being as fast as a whip... anyone have proof? Does anyone have proof of the dragon dagger special attack being nerfed?

 

 

 

Sorry, I just need to know.

 

 

 

P.S. Is the bone crossbow worth using anymore for anything? Would it be worth using upgraded to Zanik's Crossbow?

Why did they have to nerf it then? It's still only half as goo as a dragon dagger. I thought bows hit lower than dragon daggers, so why weaken it? Maybe it was just too good for such a cheap weapon... Or range wasn't meant to hit that high back then. But look at dark bows now.

 

 

 

Or maybe it wasn't "overpowered", but they just felt like weakening it.

So if you timed the specing right when the bar replenished you could get 3 msb specs in a row :thumbsup:

Zanik's Crossbow...

 

 

 

... oh wait, you guys are talking about quest-related weapons that already have been nerfed.

 

I don't see why it would be nerfed. It is only good for training with bone bolts, like a better bone c'bow, and for the special. Which pwns. And looks ****ing awesome.

Ding ding ding! We have a winner. You, good sir, have just explained why it shall be nerfed.
If the CORPORAL beast is this hard, imagine how hard a GENERAL or COLONEL beast would be. a corporal is not even an admirable rank in armies that use that ranking system.

 

Yeah, it is a pking minigame, so any arguments anybody makes will probably be biased.

The best way this will end :Everybody just says,"I'm not arguing with you anymore, goodbye."

The worst way this will end: I don't really know, psychological warfare? Worldwide thermonuclear war? Pie eating contest?

not really a weapon or a quest reward but toy mice use to be the best agility xp until about level 40-45

Ah yes, you used to get more xp for failing to catch mice than suceeding, I was too high of an agility level for mice to be decent xp when the method was discovered, so I couldn't try it.

 

 

 

Dragon Battleaxe. It used to own.

 

 

 

It wasn't nerfed, was it? It just got outdated.

The dragon scimitar used to snare you on the spot

 

 

 

That was the Abyssal whip, not the dragon scimitar.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

As for the Barrelchest Anchor. Yes it was nerfed. But it had to be nerfed, it was far too overpowered by any standards.

 

 

 

No the whip was max hit or zero.

 

 

 

They nerfed out boinging :(

I remember the anchor verry well :) the day the quest came out i made a good chunk of money staking...seems like crush works better than slash against armor :) sadly nowdays it neither owns because of its speed, or matters since staking no longer exists...

Americans love to fight. All real Americans love the sting of battle.

Didn't manage to get my hands on one at the time but I did hear of this. I'm sure it was actually a glitch as opposed to just an overpowered spec that got nerfed.

I miss the old Whip special.

 

 

 

without a doubt, best thing nerfed in the game

 

meaning it was ownage and now its crap. new spec is useless for pvm

 

and rarely works for pvp

Nerfing you say? Karambwan, chocolate bombs, air striking, flowering, whip, dscim, gmaul, anchor, msb, freemagexpatsc, "unidentified herbs?", etc etc etc... can't think of any more, the damn Karambwan nerf annoyed me though.

 

Air striking and flowering was both illegal, whip is damn powerful enough as it is, anchor was obviously overpowered, and the new Bandos agility was the best xp in the game but only required lvl 60 agility.

Pureprayer, you're awesome.

G maul, there was a glitch if you killed a guard iirc which gave you 4 specs, and it always hit its max or 0. So you'd basically be killed in half a second. Best. Spec. Ever.

Barbarian Fishing!!!!

 

 

 

Before it was really fast. Now it's like :wall:

 

 

 

I'm sure there's a much better list of nerfs, but half of them we don't even think about anymore.

Don't forget that after you use the spec in PVP, the delay time is increased now.

 

 

 

For instance, in PvM, if I'm using rapid, and use the spec, the special attack comes out, followed by a 1.8s delay, then the next attack follows.

 

For PvP, the delay is 2.4s even if I'm on rapid. I don't know when this change was made, but I don't recall it being mentioned at all.

In real life MMO you don't get 99 smithing by making endless bronze daggers.

Air striking and flowering was both illegal

 

 

 

According to my knowledge there was no rule against them and the guideline not to report people doing it. It may have been at the grey area and deserved and update, but definitely wasn't against the rules.

 

 

 

whip is damn powerful enough as it is

 

 

 

Except it has a spec that is not worth the effort to press the spec button. This is in my eyes ridicilous, seeing that when it was nerfed it was by far the strongest weapon in the game. It still is a good (for some cases the best) weapon, but it doesn't change the fact that the spec nerf went too far: from overpowered to useless. IMO nerfs should balance the situation, not totally change it.

I'd rather die for what I believe in than live for anything else.
