Knives or Darts?

[already over]

Yeah so bascially Knives or Darts for pking?

I'm a 1def with 95 range.

Which one's superior?

Vote and explain please.

Dragon darts are VERY cheap compared to rune knives, not sure which are better but I always use darts.

 

[acashedbowl]

Rune knives are better. They hit harder and are more accurate.

 

[KLDG]

Knives because of the strength.

 

[Kabal]

Knives always

im pretty sure i researched this a while ago and pretty sure i came to the conclusion that knives are better, i think they're stronger and more accurate, but im not entirely sure, either way if i was to start training range i would use knives.

 

[Cheeter]

I would also say knifes

 

[xxtrem3]

Knives, however darts are faster.

 

[dualimpact]

Knives because they have a higher range strength and I think a higher range bonus (not sure about that)

 

[laminin]

knives, but they are waaaaaayyy more expensive!

Are you sure?

I've been using them both, and I find Darts more effective for pking.

Instead of asking us, you really should have done your own research. It only takes about ten minutes to find out which one's better.

Let's begin. I'll only be using the (p++) items for this.

[B]Rune Knives (p++)[/B]
+25 Ranged Attack Bonus
+24 Ranged Strength Bonus
Speed: 7 (http://runescape.wikia.com/wiki/Rune_knife)
Price: 3,934 (http://services.runescape.com/m=itemdb_rs/Rune_knife_%28p++%29/viewitem.ws?obj=5667)

[B]Dragon Darts (p++)[/B]
+18 Ranged Attack Bonus
+20 Ranged Strength Bonus
Speed: 7 (http://runescape.wikia.com/wiki/Dragon_dart)
Price: 1,883 (http://services.runescape.com/m=itemdb_rs/Dragon_dart_%28p++%29/viewitem.ws?obj=11234)

I'm sure you've noticed the differences between them already. There's a small, yet significant increase in bonuses when you use a Rune Knife over a Dragon Dart. If you want maximum effectiveness in PvP, Rune Knives are the way to go.

Another difference is the price. The Dragon Dart's bonuses are quite comparable to a Rune Knife, but still slightly worse. But the difference in price makes Dragon Darts a better option for those with low budgets or for people who "just don't feel like risking too much".

Conclusion? Rune Knives are better than Dragon Darts, but are much more expensive, especially when bought in bulks. Which one you buy, is entirely up to you now.

Darts are faster, therefore better, as you're not using them to KO (I'm assuming you're using them with rune cbow/dark bow?). With a faster speed, it's easier to combo with other weps ... But if it's just one weapon, I guess rune knives? Idk why you'd only use knives/darts to pk..

With the research, knives all the way, honestly. That's IF you don't care about the price.

 

[Nuhtai]

I'd say knives

 

[rstrader1471]

Knives are much better and stronger, especially rune ones, you can own a lot with those.

 

[Monsta]

Although darts may be faster, knives hit harder and hit more often. Your best bet is definetly knives.

 

[Chaos669]

I strongly prefer knives.

 

[Lured Yah]

knifes all the way

 

[ShawnyKillah]

Rune Knive are obviously much more powerful for PvP and staking.
