Rune Axe vs. Dragon Axe

Eric · **Posted:** August 14th, 2007, 9:26 am

Question for those that have used both. Just how much faster is the drag than the rune? I am going to go for 99, and was just wondering if my rune would do the trick. If the drag is a good amount faster, I think I will fish 15k lobs, and get one. Am just asking this because I do not want to head off and fish 15k lobs before asking, because I would be wasting time where I could be woodcutting.

Thanks,

Eric

It's not worth it, it has the same speed as the rune one.
Don't waste your time ;P

With a half hour test of each, I found that the dragon axe is 5% faster.

This was with willows and about 85 woodcutting

It was updated a while back to require 61 woodcutting instead of 41 and to be better than rune.
Personally I like the dragon hatchet, but it depends how long it will take you to fish the 15K lobsters.

I would say the rune axe because it's better for how much it costs.

Fastest I have fished is 8k a week, not working full time of course. So 2 weeks max probably.

Think I may go for it. 5% could save some time

. Then I can just sell it after 99 and use the cash for another skill to 99

If you don't have the money then go with Rune, the Dragon axe is probably a little faster but you won't notice it that much.

K, well I will stick with the rune for a bit. Maybe when i'm a bit higher up, like 90 or something, I will work for 1

Okay, looks like you made up your mind so this can be locked?
