Whip > D'Claws/SS/AGS/BGS/ZGS/SGS ~ Best weapon in RS.

Featured Replies

-D Claws Spec does great damage overall, but the specials alone, ONLY making the price what it is - Certainly not for the Strength Bonus.

-GS has a higher Str Bonus, obviously, making the weapon not dependable solely on it's Spec - Which is VERY inaccurate (Excluding the AGS, SGS, & ZGS).

-D Claws retaliate quicker than the GS does. But, by the time you hit two 40's, you could've hit a 400 with one GS retaliation.

-An SS is as quick as a Whip; but when it comes to a Def Bonus, the SS' 2H stance does not provide that unlike the Whip's.

 

The Abyssal Whip is the best weapon in the game in every combat situation & it's impossible to deny that.

-It's quick.

-It hits high.

-The spec is somewhat accurate & useful.

.. & by the time you hit a 400 with a GS, you could've hit two 250's with a Whip.

 

So to finally end the prolonged dispute between which weapon is best over one another, it all comes down to the Abyssal Whip being superior.

 

GS', SS, & D Claws, are for show.

1. "My ear's in a cup, I guess that doesn't count..."

2. "So heyyy, that's a pretty reasonable reaction huh?"

3. "So you up for NAFTA?"

4. "That went exactly how I wanted it to."

You again?

 

PS: chaotic weapons

 

200K + Tokens/2M to repair 10 hours of using the weapon - Discouraging to your average player; the majority.

I wasn't aware 'the majority' factored into the best weapon. 80~ dung is soon to be an average amount of exp, and the cost of using said weapons is incredibly low, rarely even close to 10 hours.

Dclaws is superior as a spec weapon. As a normal weapon, they aren't even worth mentioning. Actually, they're more worth laughing at in that regard.

 

But yeah, thanks for stating facts that pretty much every 'scaper knows. Except for the wrong ones, ofc...

 

Your first three facts are irrelevant relative to a whip - they're just stuff regarding claws and GS. The fourth.... I'm having trouble interpreting.

 

SS isn't for show, it's for strength training. Y'know, since whip has no aggressive option? The one fluke preventing whip from being the only buyable super-weapon?

 

lol@ Whip spec being useful.

 

And finally, c rapier > all that listed. And if "the majority" wants the best weapon, they damn well better earn it.

Are you the same guy who thought cave slimes were good money, or am I thinking of another troll?

 

By the way, learn to troll. Your thread fails.

 

Best weapons in RS are pretty much the PvP/Dungeoneering Chaotic weapons.

There is already a thread about weapons that are actually worth discussing; little to discuss here.

Lets brace ourselves for more topics filled with obvious information

Thank you for telling us something all of us already know. Except that chaotic weapons are the best.

Three months banishment to 9gag is something i would never wish upon anybody, not even my worst enemy.

Maybe you should have given some math to back up your claims, although you are generally correct.

 

BTW, I've used my CR for over 2k frost dragons, several slayer tasks, and a few DKS runs, and its still only used up 80% of the charge.

-D Claws Spec does great damage overall, but the specials alone, ONLY making the price what it is - Certainly not for the Strength Bonus. Well yeah, that's a given, but it can OHKO people

-GS has a higher Str Bonus, obviously, making the weapon not dependable solely on it's Spec - Which is VERY inaccurate (Excluding the AGS, SGS, & ZGS). Spec is just as accurate for each weapon, and the GS is more accurate than the whip by far

-D Claws retaliate quicker than the GS does. But, by the time you hit two 40's, you could've hit a 400 with one GS retaliation. Why are you comparing d claws to GS? Besides the spec, comparing d claws to a GS is like comparing a bronze dagger to a rune long

-An SS is as quick as a Whip; but when it comes to a Def Bonus, the SS' 2H stance does not provide that unlike the Whip's.Superior special attack, crush option, and option to train strength

 

The Abyssal Whip is the best weapon in the game in every combat situation & it's impossible to deny that.

-It's quick.

-It hits high. Save for the claws, they all hit high

-The spec is somewhat accurate & useful. No it isn't.

.. & by the time you hit a 400 with a GS, you could've hit two 250's with a Whip. You could have, but GS is much more accurate and stronger, so again high def enemies, it is best.

 

So to finally end the prolonged dispute between which weapon is best over one another, it all comes down to the Abyssal Whip being superior. overall, yes, but not for everything

 

GS', SS, & D Claws, are for show. they have their purposes

chaotic rapier

 

costs 50k/h to repair

 

or 1h of dung for 40h of fighitng

Kylan, you actually are wrong. Against even high defense monsters, Whip+defender>Gs. The one exception, sara, verac > GS, so ye. I'd never get a GS, and I never plan on buying another one, except to merchant/flip. And, kylan, I wouldn't recommend disagreeing with me on this. You aren't even ranked in combat stats, and it would just make you look silly.

For max players with overloads and turmoil, yes. Not everyone has overloads. Or turmoil. Or for that matter, even maxed stats. There are certain niches where the higher accuracy and strength is useful - problem is, at maxed stats, especially with overloads and turmoil, the increased accuracy doesn't do matter a damn (if your normal accuracy is say 99%, a 200% increase in accuracy is hardly noticeable) and the higher damage doesn't make up for the speed. I just like to point out that not everyone is at a level where that's true. My SGS, for instance, is quite useful for ME at TD's.

my difinition of noob is i dont like u, either u are better then me or u are worst them me

Buying spins make you a bad person...don't do it. It's like buying nukes for North Korea.

Well if it bothers you that the game is more fun now, then you can go cry in a corner. :shame:

your article was the equivalent of a circumcized porcupine

The only thing wrong with it is the lack of a percentage for when you need to stroke it.

Chuck Norris Godsword > whip

OP:

 

This could be the reason why everyone and their grandmothers have a whip in this game? Not too sure, though...

 

Come on, whip is the best thing up to the day when you can get some chaotic suff.

DHaROcKs!!111 > whip > cls > rapier > g0dswords > claws > >

 

 

No, but really. You're so wrong, it's not even amusing.

DHaROcKs!!111 > whip > cls > rapier > g0dswords > claws > >

 

That sounds about right.

Lol.

To put it bluntly, [bleep] off.

dragon battle axe is obviously better than whips you idiots, has 2 higher str bonus and a really useful special.

Check it out, huge amount of effort has gone into this massive mod!

Holy hell why did i never notice that? Well obviously it should be Dragon Battle Axe>Whip>ss/ags/bgs/zgs/sgs

 

EDIT:Why did i listen to you *face palm* the Dragon Halbred is obviously better. It has 4 higher str bonus.

Until you get a Chaotic Rapier, whip is the best overall weapon.

 

Claws have been the best overall spec weapon since their release.

 

You've honestly only pointed out things everyone already knew about here. :mellow:
