Mod edit: This thread has been split from the Elf City update thread to discuss the recent trend of incorporating PvM into the Comp Cape requirements, etc., notably including the Rush of Blood challenge. PVM skills in RS are basically non existent. Rush of blood comes down to "can you time thresholds and sunshine and not fail to tds/glacors or mispull jadinkos/ganos" As someone who struggles with bossing in Runescape, I'd say there are definitely PvM skills. Perhaps not as much as other games, but honestly that's why I like Runescape; I only miss out on a small portion of the game's content by being bad at PvM instead of missing out on the majority of it. I mean, RS PvM skills are like, can I eat enough or can I time a click away. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy RS PvM. But there is comparatively very little skill involved.

I don't have sacrifice, or I would. I'll swap those two around and add kick. When do you cancel fury, after the 2nd hit?

Considering it's been 2+ weeks since I lost items and they said they'd return em, I wouldn't count on it.

Hey, what's the max DPS non-threshold/ultimate DW melee rotation? Currently I've got Sever/dismember/decimate/fury/slice in that order for revolution. I'm considering swapping dismember and decimate. My questions are twofold: First, what is the max DPS rotation, ignoring setting up a bar specifically for revo. Second, Are there other basic melee I should be using in place of the ones I currently have?

Rush of Blood is fine. Can people stop complaining about first world problems, please? Fine or completely luck-based and/or dependent on top-tier gear? This, I only see getting 20+ waves using level 80 weapon possible if you get lucky as hell with no glacors/tormented and having like 30% of your waves being muspah/cele dragons or kalgers I got to like 18 on my second try with t80 mage and wellfare mage gear. I also messed up a ton since I don't mage often, and stuff. I could totally do it with a few tries and bad luck getting tds/glacors/etc.

Put in a ticket. They've been doing item restores, although it might take them forever (They said they'd return items I lost 2 weeks ago and I'm still waiting.) I got lucky and lobbied right before he came down and server DC'ed. But ye the whole items lost on death system is pretty shit. I'd much prefer a ransom/repair cost system. As in, you die, and need to go to an NPC and pay a few hundred thousand/mil depending on GE value of gear.

I wish you luck. Who knows, you might come back years down the road :P. If not, live long and prosper.

I don't zerk in p4 but I just keep mage pray up 100% and spam brews if needed cuz she can melee rambo you. It's the easiest phase if you don't get cleaved.

Note to self, don't forget super restores to araxxor, and stop forgetting to turn on vamp scrim!

I remember being in this clan when I first started. Remember Kizzywizz?

For the first, well in part its because TIF is so much more dead than it was a few years back. That and it's been done, so it's no longer a race. For the last, I can't see range being that much easier tactic wise for raxor, with two exceptions: The ability to range when standing in light pools, and the ability to slightly easier avoid cleave. But even as melee you just run 1 step away and the cleave misses so its not hard to avoid there either. Maybe killing small spiders, IDK, but since there is a timer for when those spawn anyway it doesn't much matter if you kill the slightly quicker, outside of the healing one. Overall, since you are limited more by enrage than anything, I'm planning on just keeping on meleeing.

Can get 4 kills w/ melee before enrage. Might try more than 4 when I'm richer/better geared.

Bought scrimshaw, borrowed steads to test em. Got 4 kills with melee before I decided to stop for the time being. Oh and I got a spider leg part. Icky.

I actually found the fight way too easy. First death was due to attempting the mage version when I was melee, second because I yoloed and berserked on p4 and died with her at 6k. The absolute only thing make that fight difficult is RS tick based combat system. There is no hard RS boss, mechanic wise. It's dealing with their mechanics in RS tick based, buggy, and often weird system that makes fights difficult and annoying. Just like Estoc said. Personally I hate mole. Bugger is annoying.

Not really. Jagex just doesn't really give the community a whole lot in the way of API support/access etc to develop their own tools.

Took 3 tries. First one I tried even though it was mage, and failed in the 3rd part. 2nd try yoloed zerk when she enraged at 25% and just couldn't heal enough. The kill I had a good bit of food/flasks left over. Went back and got a second kill right away. Might try more tommorrow to see where melee enrage is. This seems like it'd really benefit from vamp scrimshaw too.

Jagex said on the FAQ that brawlers would work. But it seems like dragonrider wouldn't. BXP and DXP seem to work differently. Thus, if brawlers work and it's a 6x multiplier, might be worth using brawlers.

So a general update. 74 div, getting 75 soon for FOTG. Finished Plague's End. 85 mining/ 90 smithing 80% to 4th zone in PoP. Need ideas of what to buy next. I have ~40m cash. Not sure if I should save for torva or just yolo it and buy malificent or w/e for the next 6 weeks.

Question on how buffs stack for prayer during BXPW. Assuming frost dragon bones (180 base), prayer brawlers (4x) and double xp (2x), would it be 180x2x2x4 or 2880 xp per bone? Or how do they work together. Also, I forget, but does ava work during dxpw, and how does it interact? Is it's percentage xp buff applied to only the base xp, or is it applied after and on top of all other modifiers? Because if works the way I think it does, that's ~3m prayer xp for 15m and 2 hours of burying.

For some, ye. For tasks where you don't need a yak, use a titan.

How do you think everyone else got their stats lol. Gota make money to make money :P

Very true.
