janchuks Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 I read whole thread, and I still don't like whip for training I use it only for barrovs, KBD trips e.t.c. For training Dharok OWNZ all that exists (well, at least for me) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bflat0 Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 It's my main weapon, A whip is slightly quicker than a scimmy imo... seems more inbetween a scimmy and a dagger. The hits are also more like a d baxe str wise... ie. My max based on the equipment I wear and if potted and prayer is 33 with a whip or 34 with a d baxe. Controlled str actually can be a good thing - seems to hit more often and since the xp is split evenly among att str and def is a good way to train melee in general... Here's something to ponder... both mage and range are single stats - as you gain levels in those your chance to hit and your damage per hit goes up. When it comes to melee you have two stats split - att and str. You have to fight much more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiggehdroih Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 whip is fast, powerfull and most importantly very accurate. I'm not drunk! You wouldn't dare call me drunk if i was sober! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pjtomboy Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 it hits pretty high accuratley and quickly, whats not to love? 2 things. 1) You will lose it if you have more than three items (four if you have the prayer on). 2) It will break a hole in your wallet if you have a budget. Honestly...I love the whip. I hate the fact that its the easiest weapon to lose and the most expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

balistix0 Posted February 4, 2006 Share Posted February 4, 2006 It's fastest xp and any advantage is still an advantage. Use scim for strength training, watching your xp grow from controlled in frustrating beyond words. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you're wearing 3 d legs and a whip or something, you don't have to worry about losing your whip :wink: The whip only costs 3M or w/e...spend a day or 2 at barrows and you can easily buy a whip.

noriad Posted February 4, 2006 Share Posted February 4, 2006 Whip is about as fast as a d skimmy but much better bonuses. It is the best compromise between attack speed and combat bonuses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robertvan1 Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 On controlled, at the experiments, thats some of the fastest xp in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunli Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 Well I know that the whip has no strength based attack-- you can only raise your attack and defense when using it. Put it on "controled" and you raise all four stats. - "I am willing to die...I mean try" - Jewelfire (Want to go bossing?) -"we tried, we cried and we died!" - Limparse (What happens to old farts and tarts on monster-hunts) - "...and we found out that there are as many ways to get to warriors guild ...as there are elders trying to get there" - Lysi *snods agely* sorry... *nods sagely* - Brammy -"Equality is being treated the SAME as everyone else; not having special treatment and unique things added in to everything." - Sy_Accursed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satenza Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 I finally got my 70 attack, and have been using my whip for a while now. Subsequantly my torags has degraded down to 50 with all the comat i have been in. 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...

jessy87 Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 tell me if im wrong my stats are 70 attack 77 strength 61 defence because its controled.. wont all my stats equal out? dont matter if i dont get much str exp.. cuz as u see my str is almost 20 above my defence lol so u think a whip wud b good for my stats? :S no they wont even out, they will get closer together tho. as you go from 700k exp in a skill to having 2-5mil in exp, yes the lvls will be the same because your stats are lower enough where the exp between 2-10 lvls inst much. ive got like 6.2mil attack exp and i think 3.8mil def exp, so controlled will take a long time for me to equal out if EVER. Unless you're wearing 3 d legs and a whip or something, you don't have to worry about losing your whip :wink:Dragon scim, long, legs, chain, b axe, every cannon piece, and a dozen other items all protect over whip. That's why I use Dharoks Plate, Legs, Whip, Rune Kite, Addy Boots and Beserker Helmet, I keep the three most expensive items if I die :P i think dharok legs and plate would save over whip, but since you have only them i think your safe, btw training while wearing that armor is well pointless. but hey do what you want, i dont wear guthans armor unless im healing or at kalphites simply because its multi their. or castle wars when im just having fun. it hits pretty high accuratley and quickly, whats not to love? 2 things. 1) You will lose it if you have more than three items (four if you have the prayer on). 2) It will break a hole in your wallet if you have a budget.

stan18 Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 the d hally is alot better and cost less :? They have almost the same stats, except the hally is slower (by ALOT), and two handed I got my whip at 15m, and I don't regret getting it. The only other melee weapons i use are barrows. I haven't picked up a drag long/scim in months as for the dharok argument, yes, dharok is better. But, it is extremely restrictive, since theres a much higher chance of death, and it will eat up prayer if you use it. It also requires a full set, so you may have some trouble killing monsters that require certain armor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
