huge_lion Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 I was looking at some rune weapons lately. I am boosting my attack to lvl 40 to get me a rune weapon. I will also get my defence up to 40 for rune chain, legs and full helm. I will also get dragonshield for elvarg.... I was looking at some high level f2p the other day, the best they could buy is rune ofcourse and 90% of them were using rune scimi. also when I go to tip.it general forum I see dropparty's where scimi are being dropped. but let's look at the stats: rune scimi: stab+7 slash:+45 crush:-2 magic:+0 range:+0 bonus: +44 strenght defence bonus: slash:+1 rune longsword: stab:+38 slash:+47 crush:-2 magic:+0 range:+0 bonus: strenght:+49 defence: slash:+3 crush:+2 So it looks like the longsword is better, if I remember correctly they will both cost 2 rune bars. So price shouldn't be a problem. even battle axe ownes the scimi: stab:-2 slash:+48 crush:+43 magic:+0 range:+0 bonus: strenght:+64!!! So the scimi has only one good attack, the rune longsword has 2. and if you want to kill an enemy wearing lots of armour, then use the battle-axe. So why do people use scimi? just for fun or is it because of that little advertising for al-kharid?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loge_05 Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 Scimitar is used because it is fast and hits quite well. Offline and unavailable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huge_lion Posted June 3, 2006 Author Share Posted June 3, 2006 I didn't look at that yet, that's something I forgot. thanks for the tip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huge_lion Posted June 3, 2006 Author Share Posted June 3, 2006 the scimi has 6/10 speed, the long sword 5/10 and the battle axe 4/10. that would mean that the slash of a scimi is better, but still lacks in stabbing. does this do any damage to training? will I traing something less quickly?

Loge_05 Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 In f2p, using a Scimmy is faster training than a Long or B Axe. Offline and unavailable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huge_lion Posted June 3, 2006 Author Share Posted June 3, 2006 hmm okay, any other person who can comment on this? So people use scimi because it's faster, not because of better hits.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmblair Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 I have no idea, where can you get a rune scimmy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huge_lion Posted June 3, 2006 Author Share Posted June 3, 2006 it's a p2p drop if remembered correctly or buy from player. I don't think there is a f2p shop for it, there isn't a rune scimi at champions guide for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
