Combat Evolution Beta is Close!

Thanks Dave.
I bet special attack weapons like claws are gonna crash now, since they are worthless.

You make a good point. If the dragon claw loses its special attack and remains the same otherwise, that makes it worthless. The same goes for many other weapons that are used primarily for special attacks, such as godswords.

I also think, though, that for the sake of balancing claws are likely to get an overall dps improvement to bring it up to par with other weapons. I'm shooting in the dark here, but I think I could see claws getting a big speed boost and becoming the quickest melee weapon in runescape, with the best dps against low-defence opponents like what we have now with rapiers in dg. And I don't think the special is going anywhere either. It's a big favorite and will probably will become one of the new combat abilities they are talking about here.
