May 12, 200917 yr Hello. Its been some years since I've last fought a demon, and since than there have been many changes. I am strictly f2p. So I'm wondering, does the Silverlight still have bonus damage when fighting demons? A simple yes/no will be appreciated :-)
May 12, 200917 yr as far as i remember silverlight has similar power to a rune longsowrd when used on demons...so rune scimmys probably better....would req testing yep thats f2p..just waiting for my membership to expire
May 12, 200917 yr Silverlight is supposed to have the same stats as a rune long vs deamons. Assuming this is correct, then its great for people who can't afford a rune scim. But, if you can afford the scim, chances are you will get better training out of it.
May 12, 200917 yr If you dont care about a 0,1-0,3 second slower speed Silverlight will do more damage and will be more accurate.
May 12, 200917 yr I asked a similar question months ago and I remeber people telling me that silverlight is less accurate than its rune counterparts, though I have never tested it myself. Woodcutting does not raise your combat level because most people do not play as yew trees.
May 12, 200917 yr Author I don't think silverlight is similar to rune long, as I hit lots of 22's without pots or prayer on the lessers, and I've never hit a 22 natural with a rune long.
May 12, 200917 yr I tested this on lessers when i went f2p for a bit. (Rune scimmy vs Silverlight) I found that silverlight hit harder than a rune scimmy, but rune scimmy was far more accurate. I also found that silverlight hit slightly faster than a rune scimmy. I'd say if you have a high attack (80+) use a Silverlight, if not you will probably hit more zeros than you would with rune scimmy. Does that help? Thank you to tripsis for an awesome sig!

There is a level 104 here killing lesser demons much quicker than I am, with a rune scimitar equipped. I think I will use that instead. And the silverlight is in fact slower than the scimitar. p.s. my attack level is 92.
May 12, 200917 yr Well apparently it deals up to 60% more damage against demons. I'm sure silverlight is slightly faster than scimmy? Thank you to tripsis for an awesome sig!
May 12, 200917 yr Author Well apparently it deals up to 60% more damage against demons. I'm sure silverlight is slightly faster than scimmy? Its not. Its a few tenths of a second slower. And 60% I doubt it. I am now hitting consecutive 18s on the lessers with 99 str , as opposed to 0 0 0 22 0 0. All in all I am very sure by now, that the rune scimitar is superior to the silverlight, while fighting lesser demons. The rune scimitar has a higher slash damage and 50+ str bonus, as opposed to the silverlights +2 strength bonus. Also as mentioned earlier, there was a level 104 killing demons almost TWICE as fast as I was, and he was using rune scimitar. Now I've switched to scimitar, and I am killing the demons twice as fast as he is :-)
