Iban staff - Costly mistake

Featured Replies

Did you know, and this is true, no matter how many Iban Staves you have they all share the same charges? I spent 600k yesterday to get 3 staves for barrows, and wouldn't you know it that was a big big waste of cash there.

 

 

 

So, you have been warned.

My greatest ambition is to kill every member of the human race.

However I am a realist and therefore know that I probably wont be able to.

That REALLY stinks :(, thanks for the warning though ::'

don't u just recharge the staff by using it with the big bowl near the paladins u have to kill?

Yeah, but hes saying that if you have 3 staves, use em on the bowl. Apperantly you still can only use 200 charges.

Personnumber100- Warlock for life.

Would you?

well atleast you can afford to lose them. if you lose two of them you still won't have to replace them. so it wasn't totally useless....

Isn't it 120 charges?

the staff was the best staff in runescape classic before god spells were introduced in last rs classic. they were best for tank mage stakes and pretty decent in pking however they are useless now days

I knew that, 56warrior discovered it ... a bit more than 25 months ago, and wrote about it on scapeboard.

I actually have read those stories, yeah. They're very good. :)

 

 

 

I didn't notice it, if he mentioned that though.

The Staff of Iban has to be updateed! I'm really hoping that some Necromancer mage will aid the Guild Mages and create their own charging spot for the Staff of Iban that will just cost money instead of having to go to the underground pass (HUGE pain in the rear!)

its like that in most cases with items

Shame that you had to learn it the hard way, but it's the same thing for most items really : crystal bows, rings of recoil, rings of forging, they all share the same charges =/

I don't think you understand.

 

He's saying that if you have 3 Iban staffs, you can only use the charge on one of them before they are all dead.

 

With everything you listed, the charges stack up - if you have 10 rings of forging then you can make 10x the amount of iron.

crystal bows DO NOT share the same shots..

 

 

 

Yeah, they do...that's why you can use a 10/10 for 240 shots, switch to another bow and wait for it to degrade, and switch back to the 10/10.

You also seem to miss the point.

 

The issue is whether an item holds its own charge if you have another one in its bank. With the crystal bow, if you have two you can use the first one, then switch to the other one and it will be fully charged. You can't do this with an Iban staff.

 

Of course you don't have an infinite charge with two bows, but noone is suggestion that.

No, quest item.

 

 

 

I think I droped mine a while ago, how many charges do they hold?

That's gotta hurt. At least you can high alch them for 25k ea.
