Contents

Stats and numbers

  • Gnomonkey describes the new rapier, Belle's folly, as a very slow, heavy-hitting stab weapon, basically the Zombie axe but for stab.1

Tips

  • Gnomonkey suggests Irons planning to do Moons and then Tombs of Amascut can use the rapier to skip getting a Hasta; he says it is almost as good as a Hasta in Tombs of Amascut and very accurate.2
  • On his hardcore account Gnomonkey skipped getting Bell's Folly by grinding Tormented Demons for a Scorching bow and killing K'ril early for a Zamorakian hasta, which he says is way faster because of K'ril's fairly fast drop rate.3

Gnomonkey's opinion

  • Gnomonkey considers the rapier an excellent option for Tombs of Amascut and very good for killing Eclipse Moon, a really good mid-level stab weapon.2
  • Gnomonkey says the Black Kirus (as transcribed) exists and is better than the rapier but takes a while to obtain, so get the rapier first and swap to the Black Kirus later, or to a Fang if you get one.4
  • Gnomonkey says Bell's Folly is already fairly powerful and is just annoying to get hold of, and wonders whether a buff would make it stronger than a rapier.5
  • Gnomonkey says the Bell's Folly is now worth considering in ironman progression and is a decent option instead of getting a scobo from Tormented Demons and using a Hosta to kill Zamorak, and is quite a bit better than Hosta against Eclipse because it is a slow weapon.6

Events

  • Bell's Folly (referred to by the blog as the drop from the Eclipse-style boss) drop rate is increased from 1 in 256 to 1 in 75, tripling the rate.6
