POH's question about nails

Featured Replies

Do you have better chance of successfully hit the nail if it's on better metal?

 

 

 

For example, does rune nails have better chance than steel nails?

so far I've only used steel and iron nails and noticed better success with the steel nails. just my observation, no scientific studies done.

According to the KB, yes.

 

 

 

Look it up under Construction - The Basics.

 

 

 

Nails work slightly differently from other materials. You will sometimes find you break nails, especially if you have a low Construction level, so you may need to bring more nails than the furniture requires. Nails made of stronger metals will break less often.

But remember that nails aren't all that important. They're only used with plain wood, once you have even just hit oak you'll no longer need many nails. I had a bunch of iron in my bank and they worked fine, there was some failure at the beginning, but then it no longer matters :)

And lucky enough to get 4 Dragon and 6 Barrow Drops.

[hide]Kwimbob now looks exactly like me in real life except for hair color. Yes, this means I look exactly like the protagonist of that certain anime that my second character, Faye_V is also named after. Yes, I bought a jacket that also looks like his. No in real life I don't have a slain bear to sling over my shoulders. Yes, I'm that skinny even if I no-life it for years in basements. No, I can't shoot a gun. Yes, I can win any other strategic video game you have never played - because I probably have, ahahaha. And yes, I also have brown eyes, yet one of my eyes looks different from the other. And yes, I'm completely oblivious to the [real] world around me as I constantly engineer new solutions to daily problems in my head. When I get hungry, all that isn't food can wait. When I'm sleepy - nothing is of any priority in front of sleep. But at any other time, I never slow down. Never give up. Never Surrender. Makes for a good life.

Hmm, weird I have read all the pages of the skill in Jagex Knowledge Database but couldn't find it.

 

 

 

So is it good idea to spend a lot of money for many rune nails?

only if you are intent on levelling very quickly to oak, as once you have reached oak, ne'er again shall ye use nails

Back by popular demand!

And I guess I just wanted to tell you, as the light starts to fade, that you aree the reason, that I am not afraid, and I guess I just wanted to mention, as the heavens will fall, that we will be together soon if we will be anything at all.
