Rune 2h sword

The rune two-handed sword is a two-handed sword stronger than the adamant two-handed sword. It can only be used in combat. It is also the strongest two-handed sword available to free players as well as a knockout weapon used by many in the Wilderness. Players can make a rune two-handed sword with the smithing skill at level 99 using three rune bars, giving the player 250 smithing experience. When you high alch this, you will get 12,800 coins per bar.

Although it is considered one of the best weapons on RuneScape Classic, and the nonmembers Runescape 2, it is not often used in Members due to its slow speed and much more powerful weapons.

The rune two-hander is the strongest melee weapon usable by players on non-members' servers. At one point, it was the single most powerful weapon in the game.

Trivia

 * The rune two-handed sword existed in very early versions of RuneScape and was given to some testers. After it was deemed "too powerful", it was removed. Also, in the beginning version of Runescape, the Rune two-handed sword was sometimes 1 million gp ea.
 * In January 2002, Bluerose13x was the first player to smith rune two-handed swords. Since she was the only player to be able to smith it at the time, she held a monopoly and charged 20,000 nature runes for each sword. The monopoly was quickly defeated as other smiths obtained level 99 smithing and charged lower prices, or nothing at all.
 * The rune two-handed sword was originally meant to be a members only weapon, but due to opposition from the smithing community, it remained free and members were given the dragon sword instead.
