The other thing you might consider is re-reading them before posting them. Spelling and grammar errors just means more work for someone else to do.
Things like "This is Special attack though slower than normal, has a better chance of dealing damage to your opponent." and "This attack is useful cause it helps deal more damage..." means someone else has to figure out what you're trying to say.

Since you wrote it, it would be more beneficial if you would spend some time correcting it before submitting it.

So we should really have one on runeweb.net shouldn't we?

Sailor, just a few things. It isn't Rune Battle Axe with chain hit, it's Rune Thrown Axe, and it's a ranged weapon. Also, if you say you need to complete Lost City to wield Dlong, might as well do it for DD. Dragon Scimmy special is called uh...Sever I think. It's a bit more accurate and, if used on another player, will stop them from using protect prayers for 5 seconds.

Some more data to gather regarding the hits:

% bar drain - how much of the special attack bar is drained on each strike, and how many attacks can be committed with one full bar.
More 'strategy' - when to use and where.

But personally I don't think spec attacks require a seperate guide - I say place them into the combat guide under weapons.

I dont really see the point in having it here also but it would fit well in the combat guide.

As it was said, pics are coming. As for why use this one instead, because it will have nuances and opinions that you won't get from the RS site and having all guides in one place is the only way to go. Find a quest guide or mini-game guide on RS...

I must agree with Baakalor, RuneScape, doesn't give everything. They only give the basic synopsis of it. Where as you get opinions and views from actual players.
