It's finally here! After several castle wars games, quite a few hours at desert plateau, armoured zombies and the Kalphite Hive, plus many super and prayer potions consumed, I have finished my third and best so far maxing vid. It includes many weapons from the original vid, but they are better, due to the max strength bonus that I had this time.
The original video was inspired by Sosolid2k(k). Some credit goes to him.
Music:
A Static Lullaby - Hang 'Em High
Drowning Pool - Reminded

About the Keris, and my Keris maxing:
You get the Keris from the "Contact" quest.
First off, none of my keris hits (or any hits in this vid in fact), are fake. They are all 100% legitimately hit in Runescape. No editing of hits was done.
The keris has the ability to hit very hard of kalphites, scarabs and locusts. It's normal hits are increased by 50% or so, and it also has a RANDOM special attack that has the ability to hit 3 times the damage normally done. You may think that this is common, as I did several high hits, but you have to consider that those were the best hits out of the 299 kalphites I killed for the maxing vid (2 slayer tasks; 1 of 142, the other of 157). The random special is actually quite rare. On average, I only got it once per 5 kills. What's more, it can come at any time during the kill, so if you get it right when the kalphite has only about 10hp left, you'll only hit 10. So for me to hit those 100+ hits, they had to be at the start of the fight, when the kalphite had lots of hp left. Plus, don't think with the special you will always hit high. I've hit several low special hits, like 12, 18 and 27.
I had an interest in how the special worked, as I was at the kalphites for awhile, and I think I worked out a basic outline. The special gives x3 what you would have hit if you didn't have the special, (i.e if you were going to hit 30, you will hit a 90.) This is why, you may have noticed, my hits go up in multiples of 3.
Now, the highest I've hit without the special is 52. In theory, if the special had taken place then, I would have hit 156. However, I think that that is not the case with the higher hits. The highest Keris hit seen is from Sosolid2k, which was 117. According to the x3 rule, the basic hit would have been 39. This is quite a lot lower than 52. Which led me to believe that there is some sort of limiter on about 120 or so. Considering all the time that has passed since the Keris has been released, and noone has hit 120-156, I think I may be right. I'm wondering whether with the special, it is what you would've hit -10 x 3. (I.e Sosolid's would have been 49, -10 to 39, x3 to 117.)
With that rule, the highest Keris hit is probably 126, which is more likely than 156. No-ones got to 126 yet, probably due to the huge luck and timing involvement I mentioned earlier.
UPDATE: Sosolid has now hit 126 with keris as shown in his third max hit video! Does this mean I'm correct? :P
I wonder if anyone read all of that. If you did, feel free to comment on what you think of it.
I hit 110s + All day long now.
