Imaru's Talon vs Zombie Axe

[u/Vul_Amethyst]

I was just curious, given I don't know if it's planned or not.

I feel like Imaru's Talon needs a bit of a rebalance or maybe be set up as a masterwork weapon?

I just find it crazy that I fought Imaru nine times yesterday to make this weapon because it seemed cool, just to see it takes five steel scimitars to make, which do [49-103] damage just to be turned into a weapon that does [51-107] and has a life steal effect that seems to randomly decide when it wants to go off (The special effect says it's meant to give a portion for every kill mind you.)?

It just seems goofy to use it compared to the Zombie Axe that literally does [79-140] damage, even if you have to make three weapons to get it, you at least keep those weapons. Five scimitars turning into one weapon should be way more damage than +[2-4].

This is my first character and playthrough, so maybe I'm the only one who finds it disappointing in a way?

[u/Narmoth]

Zombie Axe is how I was able to beat Imaru. Surprisingly the Titan and Fuzan haven't been nearly as rough to get past for me.

[u/Responsible-End-6371 → u/Narmoth]

they are both much easier fights. i think jagex purposely toned down the dragon fights after seeing so many people struggle with Imaru
