un4given Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 Worth it or should I just stick with shortbow? I dont have any bankspace open so I'd have to keep it on my person. This isn't really a problem though because i'll be off to bootcamp in 6 days so i'll just be FOGing this whole time but just don't want to have an extra item in invy if the sight isn't as hyped up as they make it. I'm 88 range btw. 99 att and str also so killing them isn't really an issue, just when they run it gets annoying. Disregard females. Acquire currency.

Guthorm Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 I am thinking short bow because your opponent's defense should be very low. You should be binding and and meleeing them anyway.

Quyneax Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 As a long-ranged weapon, a sighted longbow is better than a shortbow. I hear sighted bows are also one speed faster than ordinary longbows.

un4given Posted August 9, 2010 Author Share Posted August 9, 2010 I went ahead and got the sight. Maybe my ranged level is too low but it's not all that it's hyped to be, even with eagle eye. The only real benefit is it's ability to reach out and catch those pesky runners who think they can run around without you catching them. That takes the cake compared to the shortbow but otherwise I just switch to melee up close and melee/magic for those prayer switchers. Disregard females. Acquire currency.
