vettro Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 I bought a SS a few months ago for about 10.9M. I was planning to train strength for a while. I now am realizing just train them all on whip. I am currently not playing because of school and won't start playing on a regular basis until sometime in May. I don't know if it is worth it to keep the SS just for waterfiends, etc. The price has been sliding slowly down, down and down. I obviously have no use for money atm. Should I hold on to it? Hoping it will rise back? Sell it now and minimize the losses? Or keep it long term? Thanks for any help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aslan Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 Sell it and buy a Z spear for w'fiends and do something good with the rest of the money?That's what I'd do anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaaps1 Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 Zspear is just as good as the SS anywhere you need crush, plus it's the best stab weapon in the game, bar PvP weapons. If you are going to train strength on controlled, there is NO reason to keep the SS. ~It's Super Effective!

Obtaurian Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 It's probably not worth it. Just sell it and buy a ZS. Don't be like me and own both for no reason. To put it bluntly, [bleep] off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vettro Posted February 7, 2010 Author Share Posted February 7, 2010 Ok. I will sell it and probably buy an Z spear. But from a profit, or lack of loss, point of view. Will SS go up or down in the next 2-3 months? Thanks for advice so far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will SS go up or down in the next 2-3 months? Thanks for advice so far!Impossible to tell, but from the look of it the SS isn't just crashing, the graph is showing a small decline meaning if it does come back it'll be very slowly. http://i700.photobucket.com/albums/ww6/aspeeder/Siggy_zpsewaiux2t.png 99 Strength since 6/02/10 99 Attack since 9/19/10 99 Constitution since 10/03/10 99 Defense since 3/14/11 99 Slayer since 8/30/11 99 Summoning since 9/10/11 99 Ranged since 09/18/11 99 Magic since 11/12/11 99 Prayer since 11/15/11 99 Herblore since 3/29/12 99 Firemaking since 5/15/12 99 Smithing since 10/04/12 99 Crafting since 9/16/13 99 Agility since 9/23/13 99 Dungeoneering since 1/1/14 99 Fishing since 2/4/14 99 Mining since 2/28/14 99 Farming since 6/04/14 99 Cooking since 6/11/14 99 Runecrafting since 10/10/14 9 Fletching since 11/11/14 99 Thieving since 11/14/14 99 Woodcutting since 11/20/14 99 Construction since 12/03/14 99 Divination since 2/22/15 99 Hunter since 2/23/15 99 Invention since 01/20/17 99 Archaeology since 5/14/22 99 Necromancy since 11/22/25 Quest Point Cape since 08/20/09 Maxed since 2/23/15 Fire Cape since 02/27/13 Slayer: 3 Leaf-Bladed Swords, 8 Black Masks, 2 Hexcrests, 26 Granite Mauls, 5 Focus Sights, 33 Abyssal Whips, 9 Dark Bows, 1 Whip Vine, 3 Staffs of Light, 15 Polypore Sticks Dragon: 10 Draconic Visages, 7 Shield Left Halves, 20 Dragon Boots, 40 Dragon Med Helms, 8 Dragon Platelegs, 6 Dragon Spears, 20 Dragon Daggers, 5 Dragon Plateskirts, 1 Dragon Chainbody, 63 Off-hand Dragon Throwing Axes, 19 Dragon Longswords, 27 Dragon Maces, 1 Dragon Ward Treasure Trails: Saradomin Full Helm, Ranger Boots, Rune Body (t), Saradomin Vambraces, Various God Pages Misc:1 Onyx,1 Ahrim's Hood, 1 Guthan's Chainskirt, 1 Demon Slayer Boots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meb Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Fury>Zerker>SS But since you have the cash for all 3 I'd buy all 3 of them. SS won't crash so it's an investment that pays itself back when you get 99 Strength. With some luck you can sell yours for 5m like I did with mine when I got my red-green cape :razz: . Retired 2146 overall - 136 combat - 6 skillcapes Plus I think the whole teenage girl thing will end soon (hopefully), because my girlfriend is absolutely in love with him(she is 18), and im beginning to feel threatened by his [Justin Bieber] dashing looks.
