BarrelChest Anchor Versus Rune Defender / Dragon Scimi :O

Featured Replies

The special attack is weird... But it drains 25% when used against monsters and 50% against players.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oops, just tested it again. It's 50% drain regardless.

228/228 Qp

Someone sum it up for me, I am already maxed out. Is this anchor worth getting? I have no intention to train str again so... Is it?

say in this way, at least it is a cheaper alternative weapon for pking

This attack doubles your chance to hit. A successful hit will lower either your enemy's Defence, Attack, Ranged or Magic level by 10% of the damage caused.

i dont play anymore... i think rs is ruined

I like it better then dragon scimmy+rune defender because:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It's only 1 item, as i'm training slayer using guthan i have 1 more free inv space

 

 

 

It's cheaper (50K to get compared to 100k AND THAT STUPIT TOKEN COLLECTING :wall: )

 

 

 

It looks cool

 

 

 

Wielding it shows you completed a funny quest (and yes I got a quest cape \' )

Say something nice to the person above you

btw, i used that anchor on a guy in wildy, he was testing bird for me ^^

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

he bringed just food... i hitted, and he didn't do anything else than eating, and still he had too run out,... dratted, he had 500 laws there : / and he was down on 15 hp : /... one more hit, just one more ^^

So is Anchor the best Crush weapon out there now?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It's as fast as a D Long. Other good Crush 2 handers are D2H, Dharoks Axe, Granite Maul, and a 1 handed D Mace. Does Anchor beat out all of those?

The first two hits I ever used with the Anchor were awesome...

 

 

 

36 first Spec. 40 the next. Even ask Cloudstri101, he was there to see it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Granted I NEVER hit that high again the rest of the night. :oops:

depends how you look at it if it is the best...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

by everyone you named here, then this is the fastest(maybe same speed as mace, but better crush with anchor)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

also, the special is quite good, doubling the chance of a hit (wich even for me, un-potted and no pray is up to 30.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

maul is better for a k0 with it's special i guess, d2h is better as slash anyway (if i'm not wrong ^^ ) dh axe is really slow and expensive, and i wouldn't use it if i'm not dhing somewere.. mace isn't really that good (exsept for insane hits) and the obsidian maul is very slow again.

dragon battle axe and defender is muuuch better just lacks a special that injures the opponent like the anchor but im sure the str boost is more then worthy

It's crush stat is half of what the Anchor is. The axe is designed for slashing attacks.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It beats out everything. Except of course, full Dharok special.

Just trying it out first time with slay task and str training. I'm hitting pretty thirties+ quite often up to forties (with super str) on fire giants with it. Using normal slayer gear; black mask, torso, dark gloves, r boots, fury and fire cape. Gives me +103 crush and +110 str. While umm.. D scim+r def would give +109 slash and 101 str.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Like said, it depends which monster your fighting. I think it's faster here at fire giants but I might wouldn't take the anchor somewhere at like abby demons. Dunno.

One will get much more xp/do more damage (around 10% more xp per hour) using a weapon with a max hit of 40 and a random accuracy than a weapon with a max hit of 35 and the same accuracy...

 

 

 

In my opinion, if one uses stat-boosting equipment like furies and berseker helms, the anchor is better. If one only uses the weapons, they're about even...

 

 

 

It can also be used in pking/dueling with food (trick them by wielding a weapon with a smaller max hit like dragon long, then when their hits are low, take out anchor... works best if you're wasting food/losing the battle in the wildy, since once they see that you have an anchor/get hit hard they'll attempt to run...)

Losers...

Are you blind or ignoring me on purpose?

Even though I sometimes side with religious people in some debates, I no longer consider myself religious.

Hows the speed comapared to the whip/scimmy? Would it be safe to compare it to using a rune scimmy vs a rune battle axe in f2p (assuming the RBA was two handed).

Nope, you can get a new one for 50k. Go talk to the monk, then take the anchor to be repaired at the pirate smith.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Anchor is faster than a longsword and slower than a whip.

I'm still not sure on what the anchor does... I know what it is and stuff though...
