dfs vs ddefender for slaying?

Featured Replies

i will be slaying with a rapier and extremes. what would be better for kuradels tasks? i know ddefender has alot more attack bonuses than dfs and dfs has more str and defence?

defender, because in most cases you'll either be praying against the monster you're fighting, or they doesn't require much defence at all

This option.

defender on everything but wyverns

 

This pretty much for the reason Linus stated, the monsters you're not praying against rarely hit particularly high so any damage taken can usually be covered by EE(E) or a healing familiar. You need to use a DFS/Elemental/Mind/Body shield against wyverns to avoid taking heavy icy breath damage which can't be blocked by anti-fire potions or shields.

Defender unless a big shield makes you feel like more of a man. Sort of how CLS sucks against most things as a primary weapon but people still use it to compensate down there if you know what i mean. :unsure:

Great things comes in small packages :thumbup:

 

On-topic:

Dragon defender is best for all monsters that don't take your hp below 50.

Rune defender was already better than DFS. Go guess what's even better now.

this.

 

the dragon fire shield is really only for killing dragons, but without a noobie shield.

it kinda fails on both.

D defender, with super antifires there is no reason to own a dfs for slayer. The alternate shields for wyverns are fine.

This. The DFS is worse than the defender on every task except wyverns, which are an uncommon task and can easily be substituted for the other shields.
