      IRC Nickname: Squelchyfish Group: Emeritus Posts: 625 Member No.: 38 Joined: December 30, 2007 Total Events Attended: 71    | I need two 126's in full f2p gear to help me test this. "oh that guy uses a scim, lets use one too!" = everyone using scims. No one thinks outside of the box. Scim is probably better, but i would like to know. It has amazing +Crush and plate has shitty crush defence. its slightly slower, but meh. If two people could help me test this i would really appreciate it. Perhaps we can change the whole clan world by making people bring chains and maces. Or perhaps we will waste 30k on a shitty mace each. Whatever, lets find out... --------------------   "Take lobsters because I don't want us to die" -HisLordship on WG pvp PKing, 26 April 2010. | ||||||||||

 IRC Nickname: Mickey Group: Emeritus Posts: 5305 Member No.: 48 Joined: December 30, 2007 Total Events Attended: 282 | I use long swords, because they are the same speed, give almost the same stats, and are alot cheaper. Also, there's a reason rune warhammers don't sell on GE; no one wants them because they suck. --------------------    | ||||||||||

And they're used in Lvl 3 clues @@ But yes the speed is awful as Mickey suggests that LS option is more beneficial. -------------------- "Do not believe everything that is written on the internet; for it may just be a bag of lies" - George Washington 1873 - On the long winding road to 99 slayer. 98 to 99 Slay without killing a thing. 22/28 effigy's PM me if you can assist Construction Effigy's | ||||||||||

Long swords are actually a tad slower... but they also give a bit of defence XP I believe. -------------------- Kcross73 – KevCross – Kevin Proud Trial Guardian: December 24, 2009 – January 10, 2010 Proud Guardian: January 10, 2010 – February 13, 2010 Proud Event Leader: February 13, 2010 – November 27, 2010 Proud Council: November 27, 2010 – July 5, 2011 | ||||||||||

The difference is marginal really, so I'd still say Longswords are the better deal. -------------------- | ||||||||||

Longswords are slower but hit higher and scims are faster and more accurate. -------------------- July 5, 2007 - June 27, 2011 | ||||||||||

So basically if you want high hits take a rune b-axe, if you want speed take a scim. If you want welfare (lolz) take a longsword. --------------------  [05:42] <+WG_Keanu> I think I got a semi just looking at the pic [05:42] <%kat> same | ||||||||||

B axe is also less accurate than longsword. -------------------- July 5, 2007 - June 27, 2011 | ||||||||||
