Chaotic Weapons Degrading

[Blake]

I got my rapier 2 days ago ( :thumbsup: ), and have used about 30% of the charge so far. I was wondering if when you are in a multicombat area with a lot of things attacking you, does it degrade quicker? I've been fighting Nechs, dagganoth, etc where there are 8+ things attacking you. If so, would it be better to use a whip or something there? Thanks.

I know armour tht degrades goes faster in multi; I'm not sure about weapons though; I'd assumed they'd be the same.

 

But then the armour is in combat with all who hit it, the weapon is only in combat with the one you fighting

Chaotic items cost about 60k/hr per monster attacking you. If you have a very large amount of tokens it's worth using a rapier even at dags, spectres etc, otherwise don't bother and use a whip.

Alright, thanks. I thought I was done with whip for good, but guess not :mellow:

if i am corecct, it degrades based on use's not time.

 

so getting piled by monsters makes it run out faster.

Chaotic weapons last 60k combat ticks of attacking and being attacked.

 

If you, with your rapier were engaged in combat with 7 other monsters of the same speed (say, at daggs), then that's 60k/8=7500 combat ticks before degrading.

Every tick = 2.6 seconds. So 7500*2.6=18k seconds or 5 hours of use before degrading.

A tick is .6 seconds, so I think you mean 2.4 where you wrote 2.6 :).
