If you build these weapons, then you get a repaired bow and a repaired staff. These will be used in a subsequent quest to unlock their RuneScape gold full potential. If you do build the sword, you unlock the most powerful sword in the sport.
The special attack will block the opponent in their tracks, poison them someplace between 5 - 10 damage and hit them above 30. However, the special will drain your bar, and drain 10 off your attack, defence and strength, and drain your prayer somewhere between 10 - 30, so that it balances out. The freezing period for this sword is roughly 15 seconds, and your odds of hitting with the special really are just 1 in 5 chance, so it's pretty balanced.
So this ranger about twelve levels over me attacks me, and it's a pretty long fight because he safes the whole time but eventually I piled a range-2h hit perfectly and koed him.
So I decide to catch my adamant arrows that I used throughout the fight (I used a fair couple, so that they were worth a little ), then bank everything, and gather the other equipment.
With approximately 15 seconds left on the penalty I eventually run out of food and perish, it turns out he also used adamant arrows, and I had picked them up, meaning I'd gotten a pickup penalty. There was nothing to disagree between my pile of arrows, along with OSRS buy gold his therefore I had no clue who's I had been picking up, and that I thought he had been using mithril arrows (must have been my pc, or my eyes).
