Wachtwoord Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 Haven't tried either of them our because I don't walk much. Dang, Jagex just removed the door at Lathas' Camp, because otherwise you could range from there! :wall: They removed the door?? How can you pick up the bones, seeds and arrows then?

That would spoil the training spot a bit, especially for people who go there for prayer xp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atestarossa Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 to the people that say there was no use for it before this update, i can say, it was, and it still is! the accumulator gives 4+ bonus in ranged attack, the greatest in the game. so if it picks up arrows or not, i would still use it, as you can't use anything better to hit more hard/often Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lighs Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 It seemed from the exact wording of the update that the Accumulator still makes new arrows, but at a much, much slower rate than previously. Is that true, or was it simply a way of saying that the Accumulator doesn't make new arrows anymore at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salim123 Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 i wish my acumalator did iron arrows but faster then the bad one because i always use iron for training Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will H Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 It seemed from the exact wording of the update that the Accumulator still makes new arrows, but at a much, much slower rate than previously. Is that true, or was it simply a way of saying that the Accumulator doesn't make new arrows anymore at all? It makes them, just at a slower rate. I think the best uses for this is with large foes (more than one space) so you can safespot, and still manage to collect the arrows. I wonder, do they pick up all ranged weapons/ ammo? So far, I know this: All metals are picked up. Arrows: Yes Normal Bolts: Yes Gem tipped bolts: Probably Enchanted bolts: Probably 'Brutal' arrows: Yes Bolt racks: They do not appear on the ground, so no. Javelins: ? Throwing rings: ? Throwaxes: ? Attractors create all raw iron objects, iron arrows, iron knives, iron bolts, clockwork mice. Accumulators likewise, but with steel.

jessy87 Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 strangely the accumulator doesn't work at dusties. alot of things block the thing from picking up knives, when i was on ape atoll the spider would block a few knives from being picked up.

icecube Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 I don't see why everyone says the old accumulator was a waste. It gave free arrows, so why not wear it? Not like anyother normal cape helps you in any tremendous way that you have to wear it. I haven't tried the new one but from what everyone says, it seems really useful (duh XD). Hopefully I can get some range trianing in before I go F2P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lep Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 Does this mean that when pking, you don't have to pause killing eachother to pick up your arrows? :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foooman Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 It works here. I love the new accumulator. You dnt have to run around and pick up all 10 stacks of arrows per fire giant :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n3tw0rk Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 I've just been using mine at the aberrant spectres. Nothing blocking the line of sight, just ranging them from a couple of spaces from me while they mage me. The accumulator works quite well, apart from it usually doesnt pick up one or two arrows per kill, so I have to walk over and pick them up anyway It is rather annoying because i might as well not be using it at all (apart from the range bonus :P) Is anyone else experiencing this?

frogmite Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 Out of intrest does it work well at abyssal demons? Havn't played in a good 6 months and was wondering would love to get back on the top 21 range goal :P, I know crystal bow is well used at demons but I always felt cheated due to their terrible range defense and whips arn't worth enough for karils to be viable anymore. So any opinions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigmoneyak Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Sucks. Nerfing the arrow spawn annoyed me greatly. I went back to my lowly Slayer cape.

For me the same, so I assume it's for everyone.. What's the point of this change if you still need to pick up your last arrows... (unless you leave them, that's what I do with cheaper arrows..) But ok, i like the rangebonus :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frozenhowl Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 has any one suggested this at blue dragons? if im not mistaken almost alll raneg spots theyr are open iv used it at teh blue drags near yanniel and it hasnt worked for me so far, though ill have to test it out at dust devils later on after my cb lvl seeing im there so much personaly i like the new one still though, retreving any arrows is a good bonus for me :P A servant to your dreams, this blood will spill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sumpta Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 I'm with the minority here: I liked the old one better. I still wear the thing wherever I go, spawning around 50 arrows a day. I guess the spawn rate of the old attractor was a bit crazy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
