halberds
1.0 - Introduction
The dragon halberd is the elite of the halberd. The halberd appears as a guarding weapon, and is very powerful, however not necessarily used for killing, rather impaling. Jagex has created the ambiance of the old times in these weapons.
Halberds are flag-like in appearance, and are very powerful. All halberds are members only. Members can equip the bronze-rune halberds before completing the Regicide quest.
None of the halberds can be smithed, and you must have the regular, bronze-dragon, attack levels to wield them. Halberds can attack from two to three spaces away, and are very effective for training on monsters that are too big to fit around pillars, such as black demons, greater demons, fire giants, black dragons, etc.

The dragon halberd hits on average every 4.5 seconds.

With its special attack, it can attack a monster twice in a turn, with great force.
However, it will only hit twice if the monster takes up more than one game-square.
It also will attack more then one monsters or players if you use the special

attack, is it doesn't lower any stats.
