Right, me and a few of my friends have been debating which we think the best Godsword is, i came up with the fact that there is no definitive answer to this question as slayers would like the SGS, boss killers would love the AGS (apart from Sara boss killers, they favour the ZGS I believe) and lower levelled players would like the BGS because they can realistically aim to get it.

 

So i thought i would ask you guys what your favourite is, and give the reasons in a comment.

 

 

Please take these into account:

 

Bandos: Nice high hitting special at a cheep price. 100% spec use

 

Zamorak: Freezes opponent, still quite cheep, very fun, good for PKing (so i have herd) 60% spec use

 

Saradomin: Heals and restores pray, quite pricey so still looks good, very handy for slayer. 50% spec use

 

Armadyl: very high hits, very expensive, awesome for boss killing and PKing 50% spec use

 

My favourite is the Saradomin Godsword, because it heals and restores prayer with its spec allowing for longer trips/more kills.

It is my deepest regret to inform you that this topic will explode soon. Fair warning.

 

SGS = EEE is better for almost everything. Useless.

ZGS = Lol. Useless.

AGS = Edge BH maybe. Really bad for boss hunting. Claws are much better. Mostly useless.

BGS = Great for six man corp teams and a few other niche things. Definitely the most useful for high level players.

 

Godswords suck in general and you should only buy one if you're six manning corp on a pro team.

To put it bluntly, [bleep] off.

I used to own and cherish the Saradomin Godsword some time ago for when i did slayer. Didn't take long for it to fall out of favor with me though once i realized the Saradomin Sword and Abyssal Whip have greater efficiency. I don't like the inconsistency of the spec either.

 

Then of course, i got the Enhanced Excalibur and eventually Soul Split, which sealed the deal for me.

 

Seeing as i don't PK and seldom partake in PvP activities, i have little use for godswords. I suppose i'd borrow the Bandos one for the spec should i start Boss Hunting.

Zamorak godsword is my favourite. Stopping a boss's movement is amazing. And just like how Zamorakian spear was at 500K in beginning of GWD, and noone cared much about it, ZGS's spec might have more uses in future.

Pretty much sums up my thoughts. :P

 

Godswords are rather outdated in my opinion.

Ags obv

Dragon drops: 82 (2 claws)

Dagannoth kings drops: 73

Barrows item count: 51

GWD drops: 54 (5 hilts: 1x bandos, 3x saradomin, 1x zamorak)

Whips: 4

Sigils: 1x spectral (FFA), 1x arcane (FFA)

I like the SGS, but alas it's one of the things I sold for my h'ween. Not sure if I'll ever replace it - I'd rather beat elite seers first, at which point I wouldn't need it nearly so much - if at all. Plus I have a Uni, so the only time SGS might be useful to me is in multi if I'm using a geyser titan. And as someone else pointed out, you can still hit 0s with it. Personally, I think it should have a guaranteed hit of 1lp regardless, or just always restore 100lp and 5 prayer.

 

Between extremes/overloads, turmoil/piety, maxed combat.... there's not much you actually need the accuracy of a godsword for, at least for very high level players. Most of those would rather try to get a chaotic anyways.

 

Incidentally, to the above posters, ZGS still has it's niche use at Sara GW. A few people like it for PVP (mostly safe PVP) because for whatever reason, these few people like freezing their opponent.

 

And yeah, AGS has some pk'ing uses, mostly because it protects over a lot. Dragon claws are probably better, but a lot easier to lose. (Works for me, I hunt TDs....)

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.

Used to be AGS but since claws were released it became pretty redundant. ZGS is my favourite (probably because I associate it with Castle Wars/multi pking which was always fun).

Dear whomever moved this, I would just like to know why this is classed as a Questionnaire? I don't think this is a question, just a general thought where everyone can post what they think. Could you please move it back?

Your asking people what their favorite godsword is. It's even a bloody poll. So of COURSE it's a questionaire.

Zamorak. Why you ask?

 

1. Because its red.

2. All the other gods are [bleep]es.

Expecting a good life because you're a good person is like expecting a bull not to charge because you're a vegetarian.

Before the Castle Wars changes I would have gone with the Zamorak Godsword because it was a tremendous amount of fun freezing the enemy when they ran off with the flag XD but ever since the change, there hasn't been as many people playing, so I couldn't say I'd have as much fun now as I did back then.

 

So I decided I'd vote for the Armadyl Godsword. Simply because Armadyl is my favourite Runescape god, the specs look amazing, and you get two of them! <3

Its a poll, not a questionnaire, differnt things.

 

Heres an example of a questionnaire:

 

whats your name? _________

What do you like to eat? __________

Why do you play Xbox? _________

 

This was one question and was an opening to a "general discussion".

 

P.s. there is no need to rude about it... a simple "its a poll, all polls go here" would have been fine.

He just successfully trolled you with "courtesy" and managed to get a reaction out of you. Lol

Yeah Godswords are pretty meager compared to the newer stuff out there. But when I had one it was the SGS because it was useful for my slaying c:

I voted for SGS, sure it's not that very useful now sice we got the upgraded EEE, but dang it was good before.

And since I only used Godsword before, then it deserves my vote.

I tried AGS before, but it's inaccuracy was just sad. So I sold it like 2 hours after.

 

SGS pride for life.

1. Because its red.

2. All the other gods are [bleep]es.

 

Well, I would say pretty much the same. Except that I would like to change two things.

1. "Zamorak" should be Saradomin.

2. "red" should be blue.

Other than that I totally agree with you :D

SGS ftw. Coolest sword ever imo.

Add me if you so wish: SwreeTak

The only Godsword that was ever useful to me was the SGS, I used it regularly for slayer before I got a bunyip, and I still use it at places like Dagannoth kings, or when I'm tanking Zamorak Godwars.
