Best weapon for iron dragons?

Featured Replies

Well I keep getting them for slayer tasks and am wondering what weapon to use there. Do NOT say whip. I am already using that. I am purely looking to train strength. No 2h weapons because my herblore isn't high enough. Currently I'm stuck between leaf-bladed sword and dragon scimitar.

my personal favorite is the leaf-bladed sword for some reason it seems to be more accurate with stab attack style which for some reason hits more often/harder than anything else.

LBS on stab would be your best bet. Since Irons are weak to stab it would do better then the D Scim.

It depends. The actual weakness of an iron dragon is crush attacks , but i always use my whip along with my black mask, a super set and my proselyte it works better.

 

but since you want strength , i then recomment to use a dragon scimitar, a dragon battleaxe on crush or a dragon mace .

No irons, steels, and mithril dragons are all weak to stab. Best to use the LBS, if you have 85+ herblore then the Zamorakian Spear is the best to use.

Leaf-Bladed sword on Stab, they are weaker to stab than slash.

The new ardougne achievement cape adds another +6 stab bonus, on top of the bonus from LBS.

It's got a +6 prayer bonus as well, so it's perfect for metal dragons.
