Dungeoneering Weapon and Armor Rewards (F2P)

The main scope of playing the dungeoneering minigame/skill (whatever you want to call it) - is to put your hands up on those expensive rewards, especially the pvp-oriented ones. For reference, 10 dungeoneering xp equals to 1 token. Here's a list of free-to-play item rewards I've put up.

Dungeoneering weapon and armor rewards (f2p) + level requirements;

...Magic Rewards...

Arcane pulse necklace  - (30 magic and 30 dungeoneering required) : offers + 10 magic attack bonus and increased magic damage by 5%. Does not degrade. Cost;  6'500 tokens

Arcane blast necklace  - (50 magic and dungeoneering levels required) : +12 magic attack bonus and an increased magic damage of 10%. Does not degrade. Cost; 15k tokens

Nature staff  - (53 magic, 40 attack and 40 dungeoneering required) : Attack bonuses: +7 stab, -1 slash, +28 crush, + 10 magic, + 0 range. Defence bonuses: +2 stab, +3 slash, +1 crush, +10 magic with +35 strenght bonus. When casting spells, there is a 10% chance that a nature rune will not be used. The staff costs 10k tokens and is not degradable.

Law staff  - Has the same requirements and bonuses than the nature staff. Also has a 10% chance for a law rune not to be used and costs 12k tokens.

Tome of frost  - (48 magic and dungeoneering required) : The tome of frost is wielded in the shield spot and offers a +10 magic attack bonus and a +10 magic defense bonus. It has an infinite stock of water runes which is a great feature. Costs 43k tokens required and does not degrade.

Gravite staff  - (45 magic and dungeoneering required) : Attack Bonuses; +15 in magic and crush, -1 in both slash and stab, strength +7, prayer + 0. Defence bonuses; +15 in magic and + 2, +3 and +1 in stab slash and crush. The gravite staff does an additionnal 5% magic damage. It is degradable and costs a whooping 40k tokens.

...Range rewards...

Longbow sight / becomes Maple longbow(sighted)  - (45 range and 30 dungeoneering required) : The longbow sight can be attached to a maple longbow (or magic longbow in p2p) and provides a +110 ranged attack bonus when coupled with the maple longbow! The maximum range bonus for f2p now becomes 151, or +136 for 1 defence pures. The increased range bonus could probably make the sighted longbow a good way to train range in f2p, although I haven't tested this yet. The item does not degrade and requires 10'000 tokens.

Gravite shortbow  - (45 range and 45 dungeoneering. required) : Gives a +40 range bonus, which is 11 more than a maple shortbow. The gravite shortbow IS degradable - it lasts for 10 hours and you have to pay 1 million gold for a recharge. If the firing rate is the same as the maple shortbow, then I don't think it would be worth paying the 40k tokens required.

...Melee Weapon Rewards...

Gravite rapier  - (45 attack and dungeoneering required) : Gives a + 50 stab, +9 slash attack bonus, 1 slash defence and +48 strenght bonus, which is 4 more str than the rune scimitar. The weapon takes 40k tokens to obtain and 1 million coins to recharge it for 10 hours.

Gravite longsword  - (same reqs. as gravite rapier) : +45 stab and +63 slash attack bonus, holds 3 slash and 2 crush defence. Degradable item, so you gotta pay that recharge cost.

Gravite 2h sword  - (45 attack and dungeneering required) : -4 attack bonus on slash,stab and magic, +87 crush bonus, with a whooping +90 strength bonus. It also lasts 10 hours, but if one can manage to use it as a finishing weapon then it could a whole lot more. Like other gravite swords and staffs, it costs 40'000 tokens to obtain, and 1million gp for recharge.

What I think overall,  is that most items are on the expensive side... which is a good thing! Free to play (f2p) pking has long been the main attraction in the game for most players. The f2p wilderness/pvp does not need new and overpowered weapons to ruin it all. If you want that, then I suggest you head over to pvp in p2p and see how you like it. Now about the new weapons; yes, they will hardly be worth getting for most - BUT will create some sort of variety within the wilderness and rs which can be a good thing. Take for example; for the arcane blast necklace, you will need to save up your tokens all the way to 54 dungeoneering in order to afford it, and level 64 for the gravite staff or swords. I can foresee that most of the dungeoneering weapons will be used in the +1 pvp worlds.

               If I had to choose a reward, I would probably go for the sighted maple longbow that could be of great use in the deep wilderness against main pkers that have high def (can't wait to see how accurate it will be!) or perhaps use it to train range since it's not a degradable item. My second pick would probably be a gravite 2h or longsword, though I'd probably do better just training my pure's stats up... Now what do YOU think about the dungeoneering rewards in f2p? worth it? what would you get?
