Trivia[edit | edit source]

• On 23 July 2009, five days before the scheduled update, the Rune scimitar image in the Grand Exchange database was replaced by the new model. Players found the image and posted about it in the RuneScape Forums, making it widely known before Jagex removed the image a few hours later. Five days later, the image was once again put up along with the official release.
• Before the Evolution of Combat, it was one of the most common, if not the most common, weapons in the F2P game due to its high damage per second. After EoC, however, many free players began switching to other rune weapons as they all have the same DPS. Popular choices are the rune 2h sword (the only f2p 2h rune weapon, and is one item so more suitable for skulled situations) or the rune mace (due to its +4 Prayer bonus and lower cost). The lack of f2p monsters weak to slash also contributed to the drop in popularity. Nevertheless, due to the reputation it has gained before the EoC, it is still a fairly common sight among free players.
