DHCB, DHL, or Bowfa for Hydra? | IronScape | Page 1

I've been doing the range method with bowfa, but I'm wondering if it's worth learning melee method and use dhl or should I just use DHCB with ruby/diamond bolts?

#

Dhcb and DHL should be significantly better than bowfa

#

If you have both DHL and DHCB iirc it's best to take both for speed times but if you want to recline then just DHCB is fine. Just lance is fine too, think it might be lower variance

#

if you dont have any better gear then blessed, then bofa is better

last trail Apr 3, 2023, 11:10 PM

#

no way bowfa beats DHCB
blessed d'hide is basically the same stats as crystal
but DHCB has 20% damage modifier

#

let me check this, now I'm curious lol. if it actually wins that'd be surprising

#

last I checked, bowfa was basically hasta level of DPS and lance beats hasta and DHCB was similar to lance

viscid drum Apr 3, 2023, 11:11 PM

#

and

#

crysutalk gives like 30%

#

more then 30% modifer

#

to bofa

#

checking rn

#

pretty big gap

#

instead of bringing diamond bolt switch you can bring bowfa switch which is roughly similar DPS to diamond bolts

#

overkill DPS is broken for bolts btw so read the regular DPS numbers

wary sage Apr 3, 2023, 11:38 PM

#

Pretty big gap, even moreso if you have a range strength shield too

#

i just got claw on 333kc hydra, no leather yet, i should stay untill i get it right?

last trail Apr 4, 2023, 1:44 AM

#

fang/lance vork to 99 slayer hands u 1800 kc = 14.4k dbolts for later

#

yea just lance the rest of ur kc until feros

viscid drum Apr 4, 2023, 1:45 AM

#

i was thinking ill just do wildy salyer from 96 to 99 ngl xD

#

i just really like wildy slayer i guess

dusky jasper Apr 4, 2023, 7:37 AM

#

alright I'll check the DPS calculator plugin for both

#

#

9.37 DPS with DHCB, 8.36 with bowfa

#

with rigour

#

probably not worth the bolts then, might just stick with bowfa only

last trail Apr 4, 2023, 11:37 AM

#

Where else are you going to use the bolts anyway

#

1 full extra DPS is pretty big, I'd use DHCB

Bolts pretty good for nex to keep hold of

Naah, only after zaryte crossbow

#

Even then your not useing many dragon

earnest marlin Apr 4, 2023, 11:55 AM

Acb fang starting out there is meta.

No

If you wanna rush it, then sure

earnest marlin Apr 4, 2023, 11:57 AM

#

I agree you won't use many but I'd keep them for nex. It's not rushing? I don't know what you mean

viscid drum Apr 4, 2023, 12:01 PM

#

Well you want twisted bow before starting nex, as twisted bow helps more at nex then the items help at other places

earnest marlin Apr 4, 2023, 12:02 PM

#

I don't think that's right. Tbow is nice for sure but certainly isn't required

stuck veldt Apr 4, 2023, 12:55 PM

#

you profit dbolts at nex

#

also some of you ppl chat too much for how much in game knowledge you have

#

its okay to not be able to answer a question

you're right btw

Last I heard is that u profit dbolts at Nex? No idea if it's true

#

ah Jack said the same

stuck veldt Apr 4, 2023, 1:01 PM

#

you're fanging like 80% of the fight

#

even if you didn't profit a tiny amount of vork would fix your drain

last trail Apr 4, 2023, 1:01 PM

#

Ye so dropping some dbolts on DHCB CoX and random stuff like Hydra is fine

stuck veldt Apr 4, 2023, 1:01 PM

#

yep

#

if i get over my scale poverty ill prob just do dhcb cox

last trail Apr 4, 2023, 1:01 PM

#

What sucks is the 3:4 Vork:CoX ratio if you want to sustain

#

Masori pipe DHCB CoX pog

stuck veldt Apr 4, 2023, 1:02 PM

#

is that the kc ratio?

#

GoOn

last trail Apr 4, 2023, 1:02 PM

#

Yea u get 8 bolts per Vork
6 bolts used per CoX (30 shots = 150 ticks = 90 seconds)

stuck veldt Apr 4, 2023, 1:02 PM

#

isee

#

i think i can manage that easily then

last trail Apr 4, 2023, 1:03 PM

#

Then again there are worse fates than 1500 Vork

#

Nice GP and bolts for CoX completion

stuck veldt Apr 4, 2023, 1:03 PM

#

1500 vork pog
