Your stupidy is starting to annoy me now. You cannot simply wipe bots out because they are all coded differently and are constantly changing. They are like a virus - there is no cure for the common cold because it continuously evolves. That's like saying, "If a lot of people spent money on cancer research there should be a cure for all types of cancer now!"

And what you said about if "jagex cared about the economy" If you read my posts before this is irreleveant and just because they changed weapons to how they were originally supposed to be doesn't mean they don't care about the economy.

"* jagex cared about the economy they wouldnt throw away all good weapons with this EoC, thereby ruining alot of items."

What weapons? D'calws? I can name only one at the moment. Idk about you but IMO it is wrong that weapon that is supposed to be used at level 60 attack is still the best and fastest weapon for player with 99 attack. EoC update allows Jagex to add a whole new range of weapons to be added to game.
It will be a tough start though...


"Also if jagex really spent money on anti-bot stuff they would of had blocked them already."

Bot makers are not a joke, atleast the major ones, they are programmers with high qualification. In programming everything is possible if you place a wall in front of them they will figure out a way to go around it, it is just a matter of time. It take a lot of effort to stop bots not just the money.

Hey, so the last time I was on the beta I decided to give claws a try. What I found was, that other than their crit bonuses they had the same stats (DPS wise) as most other dragon weapons I tried. The crit bonus itself is is 1.5% (if dual wielded).

As far as I know there haven't been any posts by the Jagex team regarding what a crit does. Looking through youtube I found that Jagex said that a crit bonus is the chances of hitting a crit, and a crit is 150% of your max. After reading that, I also read that players went and tested it themselves and found that it was really more around 120%.

1.5% crit bonus is the same as 1.5/100 hits being a crit. Even if you do hit a crit, it is still nowhere near the hits of an abyssal whip.

Dragon claw damage - 514
Abyssal whip damage - 672
Dragon claw damage w/ crit - 616.8 / 771 (1.2 and 1.5x multipliers respectively)
So even if crits will be 150% damage, it will be about 100 damage higher. This is a moderate amount sure, but the chances are only .8%...

Let's be honest, for the price of claws (which will still be more than a whip after they're done crashing), a whip is still way better. Getting 60-70 attack takes hardly any time. The only people I can see using claws to get 60-70 attack will be the kids that steal their moms credit card, buy rsgp, then don't know what to do with it because they're noobs.

I'm not mad about claws not being a viable weapon after Eoc because I didn't own a pair when they started to crash, I'm just pointing out you failed miserably at making the quest reward for such a high lv quest useless.
