gorgoroth Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Would it be decent idea if i was to use a Dragon Halbert at a Bandos Duo. When using Potion and Prayer i seem to hit 40 quite often and i manage to hit atleast 70 with the spec often too. This does more damage that a whip and is only slightly slower. If i manage to get my prayer upto 70 i would manage 47 with Potions and Piety and maybe even 80's when i spec. I will offcourse not do this when taking up the tanking role. Would this be a good idea? **Thanks to Boo_Boy666 for my amazing Singnature**[hide=Slaytanicc's Achievments]|99Cooking achieved 24Dec 2008|99Strength achieved 17Feb 2009|99Hit Points achieved 8April 2009||99Defense achieved 29May 2009|99Attack achieved 2August 2009|99Ranged achieved 14August 2009|[/hide][hide=Guides by Slaytanicc]Aviansie Maging + Ranging Guide (Must Read!!)Iron Mining + Banking GuideGreen Dragons GuideAnkou Slaying Guide[/hide] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bladewing Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 A BGS special or a pair of AGS specials is more helpful. Try to bum one off a friend. :lol: How to Chin Nechyraels for fast XP and profit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Italian5kamikaze Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Well if you're hitting 70+ with the spec often then I don't see why you wouldn't use it, I would still keep using the whip when you aren't speccing though. Quit. PM me if you play The Conduit to exchange friend codes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dire_Wolf Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 To answer your question, yes Dragon halberd works good in Duo. But do not try it solo. I can't believe how much people think of Godswords and claw as only option... But if your using Whip+defender combo (Which is btw as great or greater than Godswords), then i suggest Excalibur for the special heal of 20 hp. Excalibur special is equal to 4 sharks in DUO.

As for claw, i have not tested it at Bandos but i know one thing... Dragon halberd at Bandos is not a joke. Personally i dislike Godsword and Dragon claw a bit.

Sygo Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 As for claw, i have not tested it at Bandos For the record the Dragon Claws are completely horrible at Bandos. I tested that when they first came out. At max stats with super sets and piety I only managed one decent special after 5 hours there. Granted that spec was 40-20-10-11. They aren't worth taking at all. Personally I prefer godswords there, but a whip plus rune defender is also good and you could take the Dragon Halberd there for the special attack. I've seen it done many times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So im guessing D hally is a good idea but only if i Duo and only when im not the tank. Thank you :) 1) Merlin's crystal quest: Gives acess to normal excalibur (Special: Only +9 defence boost) All Seers diary tasks completed: Gives acess to Enchanced excalibur, a upgraded version. Special gives 20 hp total where you get 4 hp every 2 second and boosts 15% defence levels. 2) Reason Dragon halberd is not good solo is that it's slow and you usually get hit badly, so you need to eat fast and that results in you not specing in good time. Even so you hit great with Abyssal whip and Rune defender, the Dragon halberd special is a 50% chance of hitting amazing. Like here's a example: 1: You get "Spec bar on" (Dragon halberd) *Slow spec charged* 2: Boss hits you badly 3: You eat *You click spec* 4: Boss hits you badly And so on, but with whip you hit fast hits and no delay. But Hally can be good when soloing but personally i find it slow spec and the whip does great as it is. So whips speed>Most specials when soloing. I used Enchanced excalibur to be honest, helped with KC (Defence boost+healing!) and gave some help with boss. 3) Yes i was 1/2 who prooved Abyssal whip and Rune defender>GS (It's best at high levels, but i don't know if it works good at lower but it should) Here is the video which shows the great weapon "Abyssal whip" (Have used it every since i was in level 90s) [yt]V87sOyzEl5A[/yt] Best special combined with use of Abyssal whip and Rune defender is BGS Spec. BGS Spec+Abyssal whip and rune defender = Best combo at Bandos boss if you can. :ohnoes: AGS is good too but i would preffer the BGS combo If you can afford it and your duoing: Use BGS for special attack, and Abyssal whip and Rune defender for main weapon. 1) BGS special (100% ), one fast special and then you can fast change to whip 2) If you and your friend hit 30 both, you will lower boss defence by 60. And then if you use whip with defender, boss will die fast. :thumbup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
