Dragon slayer gloves

So, I got the dragon slayer gloves from FoG (had 200 tokens in my bank from way back when). Are they better than rune gloves from RFD? And does their effect stack with the full slayer helm?

The best way to use them is to put them on for the killing blow on a dragon. It's not worth giving up the +12 strength and attack from barrows gloves.

With rune gloves it may be worth it, as your loosing less strength. I'll say probably depending on your attack level. And yes it stacks with a FSH.

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).

So really its the +25% boost to attack (might be a little off) or the +9 boosts to attack (again, not sure exactly) from the rune gloves

Don't forget rune gloves boost strength as well.

Seeing as how they are only used for slayer, I always use them when I have a dragon task. + to accuracy and a bonus to slayer xp is worth it compared to rfd gloves.

Not necessarily, while the Dragon Slayer gloves will give you extra accuracy, you do not necessarily need that accuracy so it probably won't end up doing you any good in the long run.

 

Whereas the strength bonus rfd gloves provide will. You can have too much attack/accuracy bonus, but you'll only have too much strength bonus when you can one-hit the monster you're killing. No player is going to run around and OHKO'ing dragons.

 

Therefore the only thing dslayer gloves have going for them are the xp bonus, which you can get by just wearing them as you kill the dragon instead of during the fight itself.
