May 9, 201115 yr So I finally bought some claws last night. I'm just wondering what places are good to use them at. I know they're useful for FOG, PKing, Giant Mole, and Bandos. Anything else that I could actually do? And anything that I can't do that I could do in the future? PM me for fitocracy invite
May 9, 201115 yr Dragon Claws are a good spec weapon for Slayer if you don't have the EE/EEE. Really? Cause as I recall it was you who was the one cussing me at base. Also, re-read what you just said: one 15 second delay (which is an exaggeration to begin with) ruins floor times? You are beyond ridiculous.

May 9, 201115 yr I'd say sell them for a higher herby/prayer level but that's just my personal preference
May 9, 201115 yr Use them on everything you wouldn't be using a healing spec for with the exception of mithril dragons if you own korasi's sword.

May 9, 201115 yr There is a large range of monsters you could use the Dragon Claws for, including any of the following: NexBandos GwdSaradomin GwdFrost DragonsGreen DragonsTormented DemonsDagannoth KingsPkingFist of GuthixSlayingCombat Training etc.
May 9, 201115 yr What Blake said is true as well. Really? Cause as I recall it was you who was the one cussing me at base. Also, re-read what you just said: one 15 second delay (which is an exaggeration to begin with) ruins floor times? You are beyond ridiculous.

Perfect special recover usage in Kuradal's dungeon on low-defence monsters would get you around 84 claw specials on a total of ~1300 hits, which is (assuming 1 claw spec = 2 rapier hits, 1302 melee hits per hour (1500 max)) 2/31st more dps or about 6.4%. However more realistically you get 60 claw specs per hour (1.2 dose of spec recover per minute) which is 5% or so. Outside of Kuradal's a claw hit is maybe 1.5 rapier hits so you could say 2-3% more dps. Without special recovers it's 24 claw specs per hour, so around 1% more dps, or 2 in Kuradal's. By comparison, a Bandos chestplate is around 2% more dps, tassets 1% and a fury 1% also. But for those items you don't lose EE/EEE so if you still need healing, bcp is a better choice for sure.

May 10, 201115 yr So at my stats, any advice on where to go from here? Could I GWD? Should I sell for Fury/DFS/BCP? From what I've heard - unless you have maxed stats, chaotics + overloads, you're can get easily crashed at Bandos. If I were you, I would sell the dragon claws asap and buy some herblore levels. Herblore was pretty cheap a few weeks ago and it looks like it's on the rise again. Either way, super sets/extreme sets will help more in every circumstance then will a pair of dragon claws now (especially maybe? pking in the wildy)If you're looking for an item to buy, go grab a berserker ring and then dump the rest into herblore. If that's not an option, take the money you get from the claw and start flipping merching. With a little bit of common sense and practice - you will make more per day flipping then the price of dclaws will rise. In fact, dclaws are dropping slightly everyday - so it would wise to change that item into a cash pile unless you're using it extensively.
May 10, 201115 yr Author Sold, bought Fury + Zerker and have 3M left over. Thanks for answers, I guess claws aren't for me :razz: PM me for fitocracy invite
May 10, 201115 yr ^ Now you can go and get Extremes. :) Really? Cause as I recall it was you who was the one cussing me at base. Also, re-read what you just said: one 15 second delay (which is an exaggeration to begin with) ruins floor times? You are beyond ridiculous.
May 10, 201115 yr ^ Now you can go and get Extremes. :)I think he replaced the claws with a fury and zerker ring, so he won't be getting any Herblore levels with the 3M leftover.
May 10, 201115 yr Claws are a fun weapon for mucking about in the duel arena for which they can simply be borrowed. They are admittedly a good spec weapon however gear and levels of comparative cost are much better investments so really claws should only be bought when you already have these. Many of which have been mentioned in previous posts. Pedicabo ego vos et irrumaboMinigames: Level 5 in All Barbarian Assault Roles PM me in game or on these forums to play.

May 10, 201115 yr Author Fire, any tips on where to go with herblore? Currently I use MTK on 9 maples and 6 herbs and clean/use all the herbs I can. What should I be making/How much will I need? PM me for fitocracy invite
May 11, 201115 yr Use grimy's sheets to find the best potions to do. You're better off selling what you get from MTK and sticking to the potions that you find in the spreadsheets. I'd love to link you to the spreadsheets, but the mods won't let me. [hide]unbinding green's kidneys for ltk's heartdo you farm guam like me sir ltk[/hide]

What should I be making/How much will I need? http://grimy.freeforums.org/temporary-spreadsheet-thread-t3.html Just make the cheapest potion you can - resell it and then buy more ingredients of the cheapest potionKeep doing this over and over. Super atk/str are generally pretty cheap so you can make those but if theres a potion that beats it in terms of cost (and is a reasonable way to level - so not normal strength potions or something) then ditch the supers and just buy them later.
May 11, 201115 yr An important question, what is your current goal for herblore? Extremes? [hide]unbinding green's kidneys for ltk's heartdo you farm guam like me sir ltk[/hide]
