Korasi's Sword+rune def or BGS???

Featured Replies

Hello TIF,

 

I was just wondering which of these 2 weapons should i use for training my Strength? Please note i cannot afford a SS and i WILL NOT sell my bgs as i use it when i go to gwd with my clan mates. So which of the two would be more efficient for training str through slayer? Keep in mind for Dragon tasks i will use Korasi's + ADS as i dont have super antifires yet and i cant afford to get them.

For dragons, remember to use the stab option when using Korasi's. I think that the Korasi's would be better in terms of general slaying, but specific tasks may be better to complete using a BGS. When the dragon defender is released, definitely use the Korasi's.

I was leaning more towards KS but i just wasnt sure so i decided to get some other opinions.

Did you know that korasi + rune defender < korasi + dragon defender?

Now you have become buddha; enlightened and whatever crap he possessed.

This is just to say that godswords are really gonna go down the drain.

Korasi's hands down.

DK drops (solo/LS): 66 hatchets, 14 archer rings, 13 berserker rings, 17 warrior rings, 12 seerculls, 13 mud staves, 7 seers rings

QBD drops: 1 kite, 2 visages, 4 dragonbone kits, 3 effigies, lots of crossbow parts

CR vs. CLS threads always turn into discussions about penis size.
...
It's not called a Compensation Longsword for nothing.

I've sent a 12k combat mission to have Aiel assassinated (poor bastard isn't even Pincers-tier difficulty).

krils defense is terrible to begin with..You'd be better off with EEE, a dds, or claws.

Defiantly korasi's, and i'm not sure but I believe korasi's + rune def is the best way to train str nowadays not totally sure though.

For strength training, depending on the monster, it'd mostly be rapier. For general slayer use, once again, rapier.

DDS > bgs for str training, so yeah.

also, ss still beats it. Ddef+korasis will probably beat ss though.

no ss beats it, look at the str bonus

Would really depend on attack level / monster you're hitting.

I piety the fool.

From my experience, going from 96 str to 99, korasi's and rune defender are the way to go for strength training, unless you have chaotics.

*ahem* saradomin *cough*

 

For str training, it goes..

 

D scimmy > Korasi > Saradomin sword ~ Chaotic Long > Chaotic rapier

 

For bosses, it varies on the boss. When you're lower level, godswords are decent, but as you get higher level, whips become better. The chaotics are always better.

verac on sara gg godswords have no real use except at corp

D scimmy < Korasi ~ Saradomin sword < Chaotic Long < Chaotic rapier

 

You've got your signals mixed up. Fixed them for you.

And how exactly is D Scimmy better than Korasi's when Korasi's is the same speed, has better stats and a better spec?

Other way around.....I should have done < instead of >

I thought the mistake would be obvious when I put rapier at the back...guess not though :rolleyes:
