September 29, 201015 yr I got 233 waterfiends for slayer, and I'm looking to find out if it's better to use a zammy spear or sara sword.I'd rather not use a zs because if I remember correctly using crush gives shared exp. Although if it is considerably faster I'm willing to use it.
September 29, 201015 yr Both weapons are great, but in my opinion, I think zspear is superior. Also zspear will give you shared exp and ss will give you str exp when attacking with crush. Suggest a poll for Tip.it - Here!
September 29, 201015 yr the SS gives slightly more kills/hr i believe, however, the ZS is more usefull for more things, and also cheaper, so I'd say it's a lot more worth the buy. Fisher/Woodcut------Me-----Miner/crafter----Stabber----Leecher ^Golvellius must be so proud^
September 29, 201015 yr SS should be a little faster as well as training strength, which is generally preferable to controlled. So I'd go with SS. Read my blog | Follow me on Twitter | Track my XP
September 29, 201015 yr they are both very close to each other but sara sword gives a small advantage over the z spear in kills per hour How to Chin Nechyraels for fast XP and profit
September 29, 201015 yr Zammy spear is a lot more useful overall. In my experience zammy spear is a lot faster.
September 29, 201015 yr At highest levels/highest bonuses, SS is slightly better(~2-3%), but at lower levels/lower boosts, ZS is better. I've actually tested this, by the way. First to 99 Farming on 27. September, 2005.First to 3766 Port Score on 20. March, 2014.First to 4664 Port Score on 2. March, 2015.
September 29, 201015 yr I've done tasks with them both and I can say with my stats that the SS is better. Strength boost really makes up for the marginal loss in crush bonus. :) Reacting impulsively and saying what's on your mind feels oh so good.. for a little, until you realize you just started WWIII.2672nd person to reach 2496 total.Thanks to Wicked for the awesome siggy :D
September 29, 201015 yr they are both very close to each other but sara sword gives a small advantage over the z spear in kills per hour This. It really depends on what kind of exp you want and how much you're willing to pay. It's worth noting that ZS has more utility, especially if you don't have a chaotic rapier. To put it bluntly, [bleep] off.
September 29, 201015 yr and cost as well, is ss still 9m? cause i know zs is 5.5 atm, so if you buy zs you get 3.5 to muck around with, but ss you've got no cash to muck around with. It's your choice really.

September 29, 201015 yr If you're going to be training str at all (And don't have any chaotic weaponry) buy an ss, but then once you're maxed str (Or get a chaotic weapon) then you should sell it and replace it with a zs. 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
September 29, 201015 yr SS is better, but ZS does great for other stuff (dragons, corp) which is why alot of people recommend it. It sounds like you don't like shared xp, so go with the SS.
September 29, 201015 yr I would use verac's set it can ignore their def Wouldn't that be a very bad idea considering it's negative mage bonus and the fact that waterfiends don't attack with melee...at all?
September 29, 201015 yr Dj was making a reference about the other topic involving Zspear. I'd go with spear personally as it can be used for other monsters such as dragons and it is cheaper than SS.
September 29, 201015 yr Actually the veracs flail is a pretty decent and cheap weapon for waterfiends lol
September 29, 201015 yr I would use verac's set it can ignore their def I lol'd. To put it bluntly, [bleep] off.
