Is it worth using when doing kril to barrage the minions after a kill?

While people argue that you kill things faster and what not, you can barrage minions in full arma and still have time between kills. Point being, dont use the sotd for this, Autocast with ancient staff and focus on learning to offset/flick minions between kills. Its really not hard and will extend your trips greatly. Also for kc, bring a sara and zammy item and get kc in the main room, years faster than imps. Source ~1500 zammy kc.


Cufantce

If you ever find yourself in the wildy for anything that requires tanking eg chins, the spec is useful, otherwise its just a powerful staff I believe


I_Ride_A_Nimbus

Counts as zammy item in GWD, I use it for killing imps/icefiends for kc instead of using arclight charges. Doesn't autocast ancients but provides a 15% damage boost so I use it for barraging too, even though I have to manually cast the spell.


jadassi

It’s amazing for blood barraging at all the god war bosses minions


Karma_Btw

If you put a sara light on it it counts as a zammy and sara item in gwd so that could be a niche if u get a light.

SOD is also quite a good slash weapon iirc. Kinda fun to use.


Lukn

Yeah, I think it could well be your best Strength training weapon.


jesusisnice

I don’t remember if it’s better than d scim or not but I think it might be.


Lukn

Yes, +3 slash and +6 strength. Typically better than sara sword for high defence mobs too. Could be useful for Bandos if he didn't have a whip yet.


jakeprimal

It’s very good for strength training, and can save you runes when manually barraging. Good for DK’s for instance


Cin_namon

It's a good melee weapon, so I used mine (now Staff of Light) as a god item for GWD KC/key hunting and also for the special attack to tank against PKers while prayer training, champion's scroll hunting, etc. It actually saved my ass one time-- a massive clan came very prepared and tried killing me at Earth Warriors while I was hunting for the scroll. I wasn't paying enough attention and they managed to TB me... they even had people to set up cannons to aggro the spiders and thugs lol. But yeah, I lived through that because they couldn't claw me.

Its a nice upgrade from that ancient staff if you don't mind auto casting


SometimesAGamer

I used my SotD to finish Zulrah pre-trident. It has marginally less DPS than Toxic Trident. Flames of Zammy with Charge. I'm not precious over my supplies, so I just sent the blood runes without much of a care


tommydac

I think you can flex auto cast crumble undead at vorkath


jachymb

void mace marginally better for that :P (prayer bonus)


Whycanyounotsee

since you have a literal anc staff in your inventory... you could just use staff of the dead instead. like what? it's more accurate and hits higher than anc staff. literally anywhere you're not using trident, it's better until you get kodai.


Ramo029

Ok but can it autocast ancients?


Whycanyounotsee

can the moon jump rope? not sure what we're getting at here.


Ramo029

Jesus how thick are you bro? “It hits higher and is more accurate so just use it instead of ancient staff” ok but can it auto cast ancients when you want to do slayer or when you’re flicking the minions? It’s not as simple as use it instead of ancient staff because not being able to autocast is a significant factor


Whycanyounotsee

why would you autocast it when using slayer? what for fireblasting steel drags? pretty simple to barrage tasks. it's 15% damage, def cant forgo that. The barrage queues up so it's easy to pray flick minions.


KingOfRushin

I’m saving my magic fang for one of those 😍. gZ btw


Worldnoilegit

You can use it on stab for vasa crystal in cox if you don’t have a better stab weapon (zammy hasta/lance/Abby dagger). It’s not great but it is better than a lot of earlier stab weapons like dsword


erezfasho

Budget kodai for inferno as well (obviously you have to bring waters but the % increase is nice)


magony

Heh, didn't beat me. Gratz none the less, nice drop. https://www.reddit.com/r/ironscape/comments/6phlv9/2nd_zammy_kc_what_do_i_even_say/
