in f2p scimmy because of speed and high hitting ability

 

 

 

in p2p scimmy again because of special :wink:

ethan112logowe9ez9.jpg

dersert outfit or prince outfit they look so alike...

to think that power makes up for speed is simply naive. after 1000 attacks from a b-axe, the scimmy attacks 1500 times! thats 500 more chances to hit high, actually hit, and 500 more attacks to get experience with. its similar to why the shortbow pwns the longbow

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

also, scimmy is better for pking because you give them less time between your attacks making them eat food more often. then for a finishing blow, the b-axe got notin on the 2h.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

i'm not p2p, but scimmy spec seems really good because it can stop a protect prayer. hit them, switch or whatever, and then you have a couple seconds to do full dmg.

Scimmys the way to go. T.P.A.M. pretty much says it all, but someone should still run a test, 10 minutes with each, see which gets more xp.

PURE F2p

with the d scimmy i can hit 18's. with the d battle axe i can hit 20's...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

in the time a dragon battle axe could hit a 20 i could hit 2 18's with the scimmy. so who wins? the scimmy of course

Maybe if its a DDS or better

 

 

 

Put me Down 4 Skimmy \'

i hope these autoers are ready cause here comes tztok-JaGeX!!!

Personally: The D Mace spec then switch to whip.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

...But scimmies are much better than b-axes. :thumbsup:

I'd have to say scimmy.

 

 

 

I'd rather hit 16 14 9

18............4..............0 (don't you just hate hitting zeros with baxes?)

I'd take a dragon scimmy over a dragon battle axe any day. The only reason I own a dragon battle axe is for it's special then I switch to my whip.

A scimitar is really a broad sword... excet shoter. In martial art standards, the broadsword has only one ccutting side. The curved out one. It is allowavly possible to block with both sides but you could lose points in a competition.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A battleaxe... well, that's not in martial arts... to my knowledge anyway, has 2 blades. So... you can hit with it anyway you like. :D

Everything deppends on the situation, if u need to knok someone fast, and have all cmb stats +80, tehn u use the b axe, cause u will almost allways hit high.

"hasta la victoria siempre."

Beated Monkey madness lvl76.

Beated haunted mine at lvl 77.

cmb +75 and total +930 all stats +46 before p2p.

Al f2p stats +50 (15/02/08)

I have always, and always will use Scimitars as my main weapon, with the only exceptions being a Whip or DDS (which are pretty much the same in attack abilities)

Expecting a good life because you're a good person is like expecting a bull not to charge because you're a vegetarian.

I use daggers!!!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Scimmys are better, I love the speed, which is why daggers own, posioned or not.

i've always been for the b-axe. it hits hard, and i don't mind that its slow...the damage makes up for it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I don't know the excact numbers, but let's say that a battleaxe hits 4 times while a scimmy hits 5 times in the same time span. Assuming you hit your max every time I came up with this:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My max hit with a dragon scimmy: 27

 

 

 

Battleaxe: 30

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

27*5=135

 

 

 

30*4=120

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Quite a difference. When you use the dragon battleaxe special, you get this:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Scimmy: 31

 

 

 

Battleaxe: 35

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

31*5=155

 

 

 

35*4=140

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It still remains different. Conclusion: Scimmy>Battleaxe

Retired

2146 overall - 136 combat - 6 skillcapes

 

Plus I think the whole teenage girl thing will end soon (hopefully), because my girlfriend is absolutely in love with him(she is 18), and im beginning to feel threatened by his [Justin Bieber] dashing looks.

Scimmy. I can hit Thrice every 2 hits a battle axe user gets, and they almost always add up higher.

skimmy>battleaxe

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

its all speed and hitting often

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

hitting high and unoften gives too much time for the other person to heal

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

a little test:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

8,7,8,12,7,0,15,3,5 = 65

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

over

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

16,0,15,20,0,0 = 51

If you have a decent attack, b-axes won't hit zeroes as much as you think. And don't forget, scimmys miss too. so lets do this: On speed, I believe b-axe gets 4 hits for every 5 hits of a scimmy, so let's do:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

B-Axe: 10, 15, 18, 0,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Scimmy: 10, 0, 11, 9, 4

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

B-axe = 43

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Scimmy = 34

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

looks like a difference to me. -.-

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Plus, in terms of dragon weapons, B-axe has better special than scimmy

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

B-AXE FTW!! \'

choco, the scimmy doesnt hit as low as you said. They hit almost the same, and scimmy is faster!

Excuse me <.< , we must be using different scimmys or something, cause I just did 25 hits with scimmy and 20 with d b-axe and averaged them out, so that's how I got the numbers. So, there you go....

Scimmys are better, I love the speed, which is why daggers own, posioned or not.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Acutally according to the knowledge base, a scimitar and a dagger are the same speed! I didn't believe it either, but hey, unless anyone else has any hard evidence not just "Daggers attack faster becuase i say so" then thats what I'll believe.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

On speed, I believe b-axe gets 4 hits for every 5 hits of a scimmy

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Once again, according to the knowledge base for every 4 hits a battle axe lands, a scimmy will land 6. Once again unless there's any hard evidence proving otherwise, thats what i'll believe.

why dont you use this awesome thing i like to call common sense. Its done wonders for me, ive never been hacked, scammed or anything like that.

Dagger poons. :oops:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But Scim or B axe i'd say Scim owns. Only for the speed, if you hit 0 with scim u don't have to wait long to do another hit, b axe is so annoying if you hit a 0 you have to like wait, wait, wait.. then it suddenly hits! A 2.. :shock:

ooh eeh ooh ahah, ting tang wallawallabingbang m8

Scimmy!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

:shock:
