    [F2P] Tome of Frost VS. Magical Blastbox

    Basically I'm making a F2P only pure and I want the best gear for warring, so which is better: tome of frost or magical blastbox?

    Magical Blastbox
    - 3K tokens less
    - only +5 magic attack/defence bonus
    - can save inventory space by storing spells
    - 25% extra critical hit every 5th attack

    Tome of Frost

    - +10 attack/defence bonus (highest for F2P shields)
    - unlimited water runes (irrelevant for the most part)

    Which one do you guys think is better?​

    I'd have to say that the Tome of Frost, because of the +10 stats

    I'd have to say Tome of Frost also. Its +10 stats are active all the time whereas Magical Blastbox's +5 are always active but its critical attack is only every 5th which would require a lot of decent timing on your part to sync that in for K0s.

    Yeah I'm still not sure which to choose though. :p The magical bonus is nice but it would be nicer to hit higher IMO.

    go for the blastbox. A critical hit at every 5th hit do add up in the long run.

    I would go for the blastbox too, the +5 Magic extra on the Tome of Frost doesn't weigh out the critical hit of the blastbox. Obviously you'll need a bit of luck, but hitting 200 instead of that 160 will surprise people when you are maging.

    I agree with this guy. Go with the blastbox unless you plan on using (for the most part) water rune based spells, or spells that will use water runes. Then I would have to reconsider, but it would still be a hard choice. Every 5th hit with a critical hit, will be better then the +10 mage bonus. Because, (correct me if I'm wrong), I think the +10 mage bonus only increases the accuracy of your hits, not the punch behind them.

    I think you should get the Blastbox, because I think it's better to hit 25% more damage.
    How much difference can +5 mage bonus be?
