Roadway77 Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 What is the point of javelins in runescape, they are utterly useless. Every time i go to kill high level monsters (like the mithril dragon) i find myself plagued by rune javelin drops. Which leads me to another point, why does a mith dragon drop 8 rune arrows, when i dust devil and fire giant drop 12?!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bladewing Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 The rune ones are decent for alching. The adamant ones aren't, but you can use them as junk.

Youmu Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 Javelins are meh as a range weapon, but not to the "sucky" extent.

Skeptical Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 Javelins, now that I consider it, really are an amazingly useless weapon. I doubt that they were intended that way, though, and have just been overlooked for quite some time. Perhaps an update on the way will correct this.

MysteriousWaters Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Well yea, Javs are pretty useless now.... But the morrigan's javelin (p++) looks pretty cool to wear. As long as its non-corrupt it won't break as long as you don't do combat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roadway77 Posted March 25, 2010 Author Share Posted March 25, 2010 Well im not much on trying to look cool, i prefer armour and weapons that actually are worth their price. and runecrafting is amazing money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bladewing Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Morrigan's Javelins are very good weapons. And runecrafting sucks. It maxes at about 1.6m/hour with 91+ runecrafting. I can make 1.6m/hour with any number of methods with lower skills, OR I could go make, 2m, 3m, 5m+ per hour killing various monsters.

Bladewing Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 Yep, supreme drops 7-9 rune thrownaxes. GWD goraks can also drop 1 steel or 1 mith thrownaxe. Yetis can also drop 13 or 16 steel thrownaxes. And there's a zombie in Tarn's lair that drops 1 bronze thrownaxe. That's it.

CaJ Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Javelins were bad weapons to begin with. I can only see them being improved if Jagex tweaks them to give out better accuracy and a higher damage rate. Those two factors would convince more people to use them. It took me quite a while to sell the rune javelins I collected from slayer drops on the Grand Exchange. Throwing Weapons and Darts are bad as well. The Dragon Longsword and 2-Hander certainly aren't given respect either. It's all about the Whip and the God Swords these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bladewing Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Throwing Weapons and Darts are bad as well. Darts and knives have the highest damage output of any ranging weapon..?

K4ylan Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 Are thrownaxes decent range weapons?
