smartme Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 Does anyone ever use this spell anymore? it has the same lvl requirement as magic dart and the same rune requirement as fire blast (with air staff) and the Iban staff has to be recharged often am i missing something here? or is there some great reason to use this spell/staff that i'm missing?

Khishin Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 Max hit of 25. :D Used for staking if your level isn't high enough for better spells. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam007 Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 I agree, it's pretty useless nowadays. Maybe it would be used more often if there wasn't the whole recharging issue. Because of that I've only casted iban blast once since I got it back in rsc. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smartme Posted January 28, 2006 Author Share Posted January 28, 2006 is it possible that it has incredibly power against barrow brothers? i've heard this rumor but am too busy (lazy) to test it out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
APERSON Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 It does work well on barrows brothers but hardly worth having to recharge it every trip. Why should we buy postage stamps when we can make our own?aperson being Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fromfirst2Last1987 Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 it was jagex's first attempt to boost mage pking in rsc from all the pures, but it didnt go over well because of the recharge and thats when god magic was made Dragon Drops: 5 medium helmet, 3 left shield halfObby: Maul 1, Cape 1, Shield 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gizmo2k3 Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 most people only use iban blast to see what it looks like for them selfs as nobody uses it, all i used my staff for then got rid of it as it just took up space for my god staff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razzzzzza Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 It is useful for pvp if you can be botherd recharging it everyday you use it, but it does work well at castle wars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jessy87 Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 It is useful for pvp if you can be botherd recharging it everyday you use it, but it does work well at castle wars. yea, most people use it their, or duel arena. it does work really good. the re charge thing tho... but it gives decent exp, Iban Blast 42.5 +(2*25)= 92.5 exp max i believe, i figured you could mage train on the guards down near the well, but it seemed like more of a hassle so i gave up + carrying like 2k deaths and a bunch of fire runes in a fairly danger place isnt what i like to do.

Craven_Image Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 It would be good for a staker with just 50 magic. 50 magic may look harmless but with Iban staff it can hit 25s. 99 Magic, 99 Defence, 99 Strength, 99 Attack, 99 Hitpoints, 99 Fletching, 99 Woodcutting, 99 Firemaking, 99 Thieving, 99 Ranged, 99 Prayer, 99 Cooking, 99 Fishing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiLLuFoFrEE Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 when i made my pure mage staker, i won my first 500k stake using iban blast. then after it had to be recharged, i gave up on iban staff and trained my magic to 75 and just used ice burst from ancients. also, you have to put in perspective that you have to do the underground pass quest to get the staff.

Satenza Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 It hits its max very often aswell. Very underated. With so many trees in the city you could see the spring coming each day until a night of warm wind would bring it suddenly in one morning. Sometimes the heavy cold rains would beat it back so that it would seem that it would never come and that you were losing a season out of your life. But you knew that there would always be the spring as you knew the river would flow again after it was frozen. When the cold rains kept on and killed the spring, it was as though a young person had died for no reason. In those days though the spring always came finally but it was frightening that it had nearly failed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peronix Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 The only time i ever staked in a duel (100k) i used iban staff, and owned the guy. But after I got zammy flames... I don't think I'll ever use that stupid spell again :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
x_bow80 Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 i havent done that quest yet, but iv seen it in the wildy and it was hitting nothin, i also saw it at fire giants and it was only hitting like 7 or 8's 99 Pics - Range, Defence, HP, Attack, Magic, Strength, Cooking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wakka102 Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 good spell, evil charge. You don't get enough casts before you have to go all the way down there to charge it in the Underground Pass. So therefore its not really worth using. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
