July 2, 201016 yr I'm closing in on 200k dungeoneering tokens... slowly.... and I know the chaotic rapier is better then the whip for slayer but that the CLS is better for boss hunting. But my question would be is the CLS better then a whip for slayer, or if not better about equal?

July 2, 201016 yr Rapier is about equal to the CLS at boss hunting... But I'd assume CLS is slightly better than whip at slayer, simply because of its huge strength bonus. External factors to consider: piety, Kuradal's Dungeon and ring effect, and extreme pots, all of which turn the table in favor of the whip. I piety the fool.

Also wondering if there is anyone out there with personal experience slaying with a CLS.

July 2, 201016 yr the closest experience with whip vs cls slaying was I was killing Dark beasts faster with my whip then someone next to me who was using a CLS. Not sure how far that will get you though :P Fisher/Woodcut------Me-----Miner/crafter----Stabber----Leecher ^Golvellius must be so proud^
July 2, 201016 yr Whip > CLS on most slayer tasks. The gap is pretty small if you're not using any boosts at all, but super sets, piety, turmoil, ferocious rings, etc, all tip the scales heavily in favor of a whip. I crash people slaying with CLS' no matter what level they are. I always win. To put it bluntly, [bleep] off.
July 2, 201016 yr crashing slayer? :unsure: Fisher/Woodcut------Me-----Miner/crafter----Stabber----Leecher ^Golvellius must be so proud^
July 2, 201016 yr Also, if the CLS were slightly better than whip, for 200k/h, it's pretty damn expensive, and you should be using Bandos and Fire cape before you use it. How to Chin Nechyraels for fast XP and profit
July 2, 201016 yr It's not really 200k an hour, rather around 90k, which really isn't much(rune knives/fire surge are both 600k+). As for cls vs whip for slayer, as an overall weapon, the cls is better. The tasks that it beats the whip are irons, steels, miths and dark beasts. For other tasks, from what i've seen from others training with one, is that it can be a bit better(abyssals) or quite a bit worse(greaters), but usually averages the same. Rapier clearly beats them both by quite a bit except for perhaps mithril dragons. First to 99 Farming on 27. September, 2005.First to 3766 Port Score on 20. March, 2014.First to 4664 Port Score on 2.
