Retired Leader Mojo Posted November 16, 2017 Retired Leader Share Posted November 16, 2017 Wonder if we’ll see ppl using the staff now then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C ZULA Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 So does this mean everyone who bought a bunch of serp helms last week made bank? lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmonik Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 Damn, if I only the money for the serp helm last week or two lol. Sounds like a decent pairing with the toxic blowpipe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AAIGHT Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 I dont see them going up in price very much, if any at all. They are also linked to the price of scales. Im sure its gonna have a few new uses but it still has negative range and mage attack bonuses, so for something like raids, a nezzy would be the better option in 99% of the situations Quote YT Channel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WG Da Man Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 sounds interesting the ahrims staff has always been underpowered though tbh from what i remeber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kazzaz Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 not bad im just happy the ahrims staff is getting buffed would be fun to see people using it now, before this update you will never ever see anyone with an ahrims staff unless they have something wrong with them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davery Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 I can't read the updates since I am at work. What exactly were the buffs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serpentine Helm The Serpentine Helmet now gives a 50% chance to inflict venom when worn in conjunction with a poison-inflicting weapon, such as the Dragon Dagger Poisoned. This also applies to poisoned arrows and bolts, but not the Emerald bolts (e) special ability. Attacks that hit more than 0 will have the chance to trigger this effect and it will only apply to NPCs. In addition to this, it now gives a 100% chance to inflict venom when worn in conjunction with a venom-inflicting weapon, such as the Toxic Blowpipe. Attacks that hit more than 0 will trigger this effect and it will only apply to NPCs. Ahrim's Staff Ahrim's staff has long been remembered as one of the worst magic weapons in the game, due to it being 2-handed. Those days are now behind us. Ahrim's staff is now 1-handed and also provides a 5% Magic damage increase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahrim's staff is now 1-handed and also provides a 5% Magic damage increase. Wow those are actually pretty fair buffs in my opinion. Serp helm offers a decent bonus, but I would still love to see it be useful in PvP as well. As for Ahrim's staff, personally I don't like the 1-handed staff out of a distaste for changing old content, but it was a fundamentally un-usable weapon and now it should offer mages a new viable weapon, especially when used with the amulet of the damned.

Ghost Sabre Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 i'm glad they're buffing ahrim's staff it's definitely needed. barrows is still some of the best gear in the game.
