blakdragon39 Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I'm not sure I'll be able to get either anytime soon.. But I've heard that rapier is better than CLS? I was looking at the rewards page today in the KB and CLS's stats are all much higher than the rapier. So which one's actually better? My guess is that rapier must be somewhat faster than the longsword? Right now though, I think I still favour the longsword. :P Just want to hear some peoples opinions on which is better and why!

gremmy Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Yeah, if you play RS for the women, you're making some poor decisions. What are you talking about? The actual women in are really funny and intelligent, and you'd be stupid not to accept meeting one of them in a dark alley friday night.

green9090 Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Yes, but statistically that nice woman is going to be a guy who's a little too into roleplaying. I'm not saying awesome women don't play RS, I'm just saying most of them are secretly men. Man this has absolutely nothing to do with CLS vs CR huh?

HexiledRazz Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 I think everyone is disregarding Maul here. OP kinda decided that it was gonna be an CLS or a CR. Besides, maul isn't really practical for DPS. Which is what i think the OP is going for. And after reading through the thread again, i rofl'ed like crazy. Hexiled Razz. Player since March 8th, 2005.
