My First Chaotic, Which One to Buy?

Post by ImSurferRosa » Tue Jul 16, 2013 9:07 pm

So Finally, I have reached my first 200k tokens! <:-P

Now, since it took me forever to get them, I really don't want to screw up and regret my first chaotic. So according to my stats, what do you all suggest I get first?

I would really like to finally defeat Jad and try my luck at other boss monsters. I'm not sure if chaotics would improve my chances or not.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated as to which one I should get first.

I've got the maul and I didn't even bother buying rapiers/cls. I'm not much of a pvm'er but I way prefer 2h weapons and the abilities just seem so much better, even with improvements that have been made to dual abilities. I love my maul and would be lost without it but I'm not exactly an expert!

It kinda depends on what you will be doing/or what cb skills you want to train in the near future. For melee, I prefer the dual weapons, but then you will need more tokens for that. It's all personal preference actually.

I've done some serious damage with the chaotic maul. I loved it for slayer. I'd recommend it.

bone crusher is a serious waste IMO, but like I said, it's personal preference.

its only a waste if you don't have the necklace to go with it :) dragon bones heal 300 prayer points with demonhorn. makes slayer fantastic.

Maul, 2h combat is a lot better/easier

Thank-you to everyone who helped me out with this extremely difficult decision....ahh, the tough decisions of RS life :D

So. Maul it is!



And if I really regret it after I tried it out, I'll be coming after each of you who suggested it in WILDY! Muhahaha! :twisted:

JK, seriously though, big thanks to you all, i really appreciated your input!

I'mma piggy back on this. I'm starting to collecting a decent amount of tokens (600k+) and have no items I'm jonesing for.

Melee: I use dual drygore maces. I don't think a chaotic maul would be prudent.

Ranged: I use a royal crossbow. Are dual-weild chaotic crossbows worth it?

Mage: I'm most nooby with mage in the post-EoC world. I use primarily pre-EoC gear: SoL and guao. Is a chaotic staff something to look into?

What about the shields?

Thanks!

Yes to the chaotic staff (unless you already have virtus wand and book). I have all of the 3 shields but never use them LOL.

I have both chaotic cbows but I rarely use them. My fav range item: zaryte bow (FREE AMMO! I hate picking up arrows...I can't leave them on the ground...LOL) The zaryte bow is the best thing I've ever purchased.

Other items I think worth buying:

arcane stream necklace
bonecrusher (I hate picking up bones and burying them LOL)
anti-poison totem
charming imp (I hate picking up charms...seeing a trend here?)

How about stabbing or slashing chaotics? (unless you're going for drygores there too)

Thanks for your advice, I will get a chaotic staff.

I also hate picking up things. I have herbicide, charming imp, and bonecrusher for that reason :P
