Although there is a big difference in crush defence, it's very unlikely you will actually encounter many monsters who use a crush attack.
I think the majority of monsters use a stab or slash attack.

The only monsters which use crush really are cyclops [plural], trolls and things like that..
Worst case scenario is you save up and buy a rune platebody which is better than both of them :D


i have the cash to buy i just need to do the dragon slayer quest and i dont have 33 qp ><

Really? Not many of them seemed to have a crush-like animation.
I may be wrong ofc - perhaps that lunar spell can identify what style of attack they use?

Otherwise I suppose you could spend a year testing it out on each monster :lol:

I could be completely wrong but I remember reading an article on tip.it (yeah I actually read those things, kinda fun) about defense bonuses and the general consensus was that in PvP armour that gives a good slash bonus is preferable, considering dds/scim etc. and in PvM you're shooting for crush bonus.

Dragons seems to crush, Bandos, even men is more crush than slash, or somesuch.

Anyways that was like...2.5 years ago so I could be completely wrong o_O

unless ur fighting zombies trolls etc u wont be needing crush defense, so i suppose elite would be better but if u could do dragon slayer and get a rune platebody that would be the best at ur lvl
