Now there are four main focuses in melee, and they are: Speed, Accuracy, Power, and Price. With this I will discuss these four items in more depth.

Speed
Speed is a very key aspect in fighting. This is because the more times you can hit some one the more potential damage you can deal. So with this you want to find the fastest possible weapon. And to little surprise the fastest weapon is the Dagger. It is small yet very agile making it a very quick striking weapon. So with it compared to hitting once with a Two-Handed Sword you can hit about 3 times with a dagger so in that you have the chance for three times the amount of damage as the Two-Handed Sword.

Top Three Weapons in Speed
1 ~ Dagger
2 ~ Scimitar
3 ~ Sword

Coming Soon!
*For more information on weapon speed look to the raw data potion of this guide.

Accuracy
Well When it comes to accuracy it always seems that even though you are using better weapons you still never hit when you need to. Well when it comes to accuracy in Runescape is based more on chance than real numbers, but with what information I have found there is a small difference between weapons and this can be found in the Attack bonus section of the equipment stats menu. If you add up all of the numbers in the stab, slash, and crush parts of the equipment stats menu you will notice that the two-handed sword is the most accurate weapon

Top Three Weapons in Accuracy
1 ~ Two Handed Sword
2 ~ Battle Axe
3 ~ Long Sword

Coming Soon!
*For more information on weapon accuracy look to the raw data potion of this guide.

Power
Power is the third key aspect in fighting. This is because the harder you can hit your opponent the more likely you are to kill them. So to get the most power you want to find the biggest weapon you can this being the Two-Handed Sword. This weapon being so big it does not do very well in the speed category. But what It lacks in speed it easily makes up for it in pure power. So instead of hitting many times it goes for one fell swoop to KO your opponents.

Top Three Weapons in Power
1 ~ Two Handed Sword
2 ~ Battle Axe
3 ~ Long Sword

More Coming Soon!
*For more information on weapon power look to the raw data potion of this guide.

Price
Unless you have so many Party Hats in your bank that you are having to give them away then this applies to you, because I really doubt you want to die thousands of times with a weapon worth millions of GP. Well this also applies to the little weapons too. Because if you PK enough the prices will stack up. So what you want to do is find a very cost effective weapon that meets your needs for most people this is just taking a Scimitar and nothing else but for others this could be as much as taking four different weapons and other things.

More Coming Soon!

Time Vs Power Graph

After some more math the scimitar finally was better than the battle axe with everything after 35 seconds.
* Note All Data is Based on the Rune Weapon of that type for all categories except for the weapon speed category. Which regardless of the metal type it will stay the same.
** All Weapons were made by Dibble_07 because I was too lazy to make them.




Closing Thoughts
Coming Soon!

I think that this is a good guide.

My favorite part is the graph on the wepons type is really helpful, perhaps the king should consider using a skimmy now. <_<

Ya but you must also remember that the B axe is better for the first 35 seconds....

Ya updates will come in the time between; Homework, School, Band, Robotics, Sleep and finishing my 25k steel bars....and then there is the new problem of 3 computers running on one internet connection.... it doesn't work so well.

I have more graphs all I have to do is touch ups and then upload them.

Nice to hear that you like it. :D
