Weapon for frosts besides rapier?

[Swiller2]

Gonna try frosts since when I first gained access they were overrun by bots. Despite being 85 Dung. I don't have any chaotic weapons atm. So my question is:

 

Without a rapier what would be the best weapon to use at frost dragons?

 

I'm guessing Korasi but wanted to know if there was something better I am not thinking of. Thanks.

Range instead, they deal too much damage to those who melee them, kill speed wont change much, so overall, you will be better off ranging.

What did you spend your 300k tokens on? If you have a CLS, that would be better than the below.

 

Korasis sword with d defender is almost EXACTLY as good as zamorakian spear, it's quite creepy. So either of those would be fine.

 

And don't listen to the guy above me, with your stats you will easily be able to kill a frost before consuming a monkfish of health, so you'll still be capable of filling your inventory with loot in much less time, and actually having to drop a few food to make room. (Hell, you might even be capable of soulsplit flicking and not bringing food at all)

 

If you're new to the new frosts theres really only one important message. If they start to glow blue, just stop attacking. Spend this time to sort out your inventory and BoB and pick up loot, because if you attack, you will take a lot of damage.

 

Always bring a cannon by the way, despite what people think, your cannon does NOT damage you when they glow blue as long as you are not attacking them at that time. This will speed up your killrate considerabley.

 

Wear good melee armour and pray magic at all times.

To answer your question korasi's with a ddef is the next best thing to a rapier.

Lol I used peng points etc. to get a lot of my initial levels, then just basically soloed all the time so never got great tokens for doing floors really. After I bought arcane stream, farming and herb scrolls and upgraded my ring a bunch I only have 50k tokens atm.

 

Thanks for the helpful advice, using what you said is working great. God that blue orb thing freakin SUCKS! Thanks again.

um, brackish blade + ddef > korasi's + ddef when accuracy is below around 65% (that's just a guess, but basically you get +7 stab and sacrifice 4 str).

I believe at max stats with olvs/turmoil korasi's str is more beneficial than the brackish blade's att. Could be wrong, someone should run the dps calcs that I can't do from my mobile phone.
