Iban Blast

[Will H]

Iban staff is very strong, but personally its only really useful for quest boss battles and just for all round self defence if you are doing a quest w/o a guide. The walk is too far for use in the wilderness, and anyway, you get less charges against players.

[acrotis]

i love my iban staff but i aint walking through underground pass every 75 spells at duela rena, only good place to use it i find, but yeah.

[Dalcyte]

 

thus, thats why he said charge...i mean, its nice for low level mages i guess, but its effectiveness runs out when u get higher mage. And most lower levels mages are typically are less poor, yes thats true. Poorer people can't aford to pay 200k after a few casts...i'd say its a big waste of cash

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Great leap in logic there man. Low level are less poor. Higher levels are more poor?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Please man, don't post on a thread you not absolutely nothing about. Nowhere did I say that it takes 200k to charge a staff. It is 200k to get a new one, but charging the staff is free. Kind of makes it obvious that you have never done it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

...you can get more "bang for your buck" if you just purchase a few deaths for fire wave.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Dude...Do you mage at all? Fire wave does not use deaths!! Tip.it has a very in depth mage guide, try getting at least one fast straight before posting. I included 'Bang for buck' calcs at the bottom for ya.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

...Pvp wise its awful also, people run, iban=no autocast... :XD:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The god spells aren't autocastable either! (well, unless you have the Void Knight Mace).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I may be wrong, But I believe you can hit 25's with No Charge and The God Cape, I may be wrong, Though

 

 

 

Your correct i think, i think i max 21 with no charge or cape, 25 without charge with cape, 27 with charge without cape, and 30 with cape and charge.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yep you are both wrong.

Iban Blast costs less and gives more xp per cast than the god spells.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Iban:

 

 

 

Base - 42.5, can hit for up to 25

 

 

 

For a full hit: 92.5 XP

 

 

 

Cost per cast: 400gp.

 

 

 

Average hit: 14 for 70.5 xp

 

 

 

Cost per xp: 5.67

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

God Spell (lvl 60-80):

 

 

 

Base - 35, can hit 20

 

 

 

For a full hit: 75

 

 

 

Cost per cast: 1,320gp.

 

 

 

Average hit: 11.5 for 58 xp

 

 

 

Cost per xp: 22.75

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

God Spell (with charge)

 

 

 

Base - 35, can hit 30

 

 

 

For a full hit: 95

 

 

 

Cost Per cast: 1,320 (but charge spell costs 1,920)

 

 

 

Average hit: 17.25 for 69.5xp **

 

 

 

Cost per xp: 20.4

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I estimaged the ave hit for the charged spell because I can't do it and have no data for it, but I took my average hit from the uncharged and used the same percentage out of 30 as I was hitting out of 20. The cost per xp is also based n 20 hits per charge.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

sorry bout the errors, i do mage, i'm 76 right now, but i was pretty tired right then i honestly don't know much about the iban staff, but i do know a few things. Although fire blast isn't as cheap, it gives much much much more magic exp, and in the long run you'll hit higher, you mentioned about god spells, i'm talking about fire blast here. Sorry if i did a few mistypes, i didn't know you would throw a fit about it. If you want to a quick game of cw, thats nice maybe, but i'm talking about autocastable spells, not god spells :? 120 uses of non player combat and 75 uses for pvp combat is what it is right? me and the majority of players don't value going through the underground pass juts for that, most of us would rather take the extra payment for some deaths or bloods maybe + the much better magic experience over taking a trek through the annoying undergound pass.

How am I wrong...?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I said 20 is the Max with no Cape

 

 

 

25 With Just the Cape

 

 

 

30 with Cape and Charge

 

 

 

Kb doesnt take cape into account so untill it does maybe you shouldnt tell people they are wrong.

[Aresgodowar]

if yo want bang for your buck kill salirin the twisted with firestrike. you always hit 12s and it costs what 1 maby 2 coins pe xp?

yeah salarin is awesome...however he takes his time respawning... :|

[Aresgodowar]

if you have the new internet explorer you can have two different worlds on tabs and switch between them each time you kill him. or if your on a really populated world his respawn is 15-20 secs

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

if you can see my little mage goal you can see its alot. ill either be killing lots of salarins or take my veracs to pest control for a spell.(lol)

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I highly doubt multi-logging is legal...

I don't think he means multilogging. He means switching log off and switch worlds to kill him so you don't have to wait for the respawn.

[Blaze The Movie Fan]

Because you have a long way to go, especially then you lose it. I think even high agility men can have trouble with reaching the Iban Disciples.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I agree it is good, but I wouldn't use it due to the fact you have to recharge. Not to mention it's further from bank than any of the barrows repairmen.

[Kama]

firstly- its max hit is low, the 5 damage may seem little but in the wilderness(where it would most probobly be used) it is way too low.

 

 

 

secondly the recharges, 75 spells is a joke.

 

 

 

third- no special effects- like the god spell effects and ice spell effect, this spell has none.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

useless.(unless your a low level not pking.)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The max hit is 5 more than the god spells from level 50 to level 80. Sure you are probably not going to pull many whips pking people under level 100, but you can have a combat level of 40 and cast Iban blast that will own your opponant in wildy well into the 70s, making for a very nice haul of rune plates.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Also, the effects of the god spells really don`t have much of an effect on the outcome of a pk though. Guthix`s reduction of def might be the best, even there you are going for the hits, not the side effects.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

12pure34 - Ya. I have ancients too, but I still enjoy a bit of hunting with my trusty Iban Staff.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

sorry bout the errors,...I honestly don't know much about the iban Blast. Although fire blast isn't as cheap, it gives much much much more magic exp, and in the long run you'll hit higher, you mentioned about god spells, i'm talking about fire blast here.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Fire Blast? It has a base of 34.5, and a max of 16. That averages out to about 52 xp per cast (7.7 xp per gp), or about 33% less than Iban Blast. You will never hit higher. With that reasoning you might as well go with your chaos gauntlets and use bolt spells, 38 xp per cast (5.2 xp per gp). That approaches Iban in terms of xp per gp, but the xp is twice as slow.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

...most of us would rather take the extra payment for some deaths or bloods maybe + the much better magic experience over taking a trek through the annoying undergound pass.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Come on dude, just stay off the thread. There is no extra payment associated with charging the staff. What `much better mage xp` were you talking about? Some numbers backing that claim up would be nice, but there arent any!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

if yo want bang for your buck kill salirin the twisted with firestrike. you always hit 12s and it costs what 1 maby 2 coins pe xp?

I hit rarely hit 12s, and average out to 10 damage each spell.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

At 80 gp per cast, that is 31.5 xp per cast, so about 2.5 xp per gp. This is cheap xp, but you would have to train for 66% longer to achieve the same outcome.

[Riqualyn]

With the slayer staff Iban Blast is auto-castable and the charges never run out. You will never get faster, cheaper, or more effective training with fire blast, unless of course you don`t have 55 slayer, but that should take all of a few days to get.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Slayer staff does not allow you to auto-cast Iban Blast.

[salim123]

i just found my staff of iban in bank and have been using it in barrows i save 10-20 deaths each time :P its lasted me 2 so far and maybe 1 more use
