That's a bit of a silly question D Jay.

So you were both wearing second class items? If you can wear climbing boots without comments, he sure can wear a rune skirt without being judged. But making fun of Climbing boots AND slayer cape? I think he needed a taste of his own medicine :lol: .

Have you ever given thought to the possiblity that everyone rates strength highly for a reason?

I think he's asking firstly if the guy who gets the drop is included in the division of lsp from a drop and if he loses less lsp getting a drop when there are alot of people around due to it being spread out among more people.

Skilling, pking, money making.

You know for a fact that nobody would be interested in the warhammers spec? You know the warhammers spec? Could be a great weapon for all you know.

Same here dude, but the facts speak louder than the both of us. Absolutely amazing graphics are more likely to sell a videogame than an intricate plot/great gameplay with bad graphics. No, back in RSC (runescape classic) 1 defence pures were near undefeatable. When RS2 (What we're playing now) came out, Jagex changed the way the combat level system worked (basically nerfing 1 defence). Just an example but a popular pure build now is 60 att and 99 strength. Maxed out this has a combat level of 83 with 52 prayer. In runescape classic you could be 99 attack, 99 strength, 99 hitpoints, 99 ranged and 52 prayer with 1 defence and be 81 combat. A pure with them stats in the runescape we play now would be 95 combat. In a single player game I'd agree with you. But in a game as multiplayer as runescape you can't have one skill = ultimate power. The skill Defence not only helps you defend from attacks, it increases your offensive capabilities (via strength bonus) and your ability to pray longer. Having myself been a pure for a long time (since classic) I can definately tell you defence is alot more useful than someone who is used to it would think. It's easy to say 'omg my 99 def got specced out we need more defence' but try playing on a real low defence account and you'll see how good defence really is. They're probably newbs who haven't had 99 defence before.

Yeah I know what you meant but why should any RPG have to conform to the rules set by past RPGs? In todays age isn't the best selling point of videogames originality (well, second best after graphics)? I like how Runescape isn't the same as D&D and other RPGs of old. I play runescape for runescape, not so I can say wow this is just like D&D, what a great game. Pjing has been stopped tbh. Just log onto a BH world which isn't +1 and I promise you won't find many Pjers if any. AGS dropped over 13M in 3 days when this update happened before +1 worlds were introduced, because everyone knew it was the end of PJing. All this update (to defence) will do is make tank rangers like the 1 and 10 defence pures of RSC. Near undefeatable. I can't see Jagex creating another situation like that, they changed the way combat level is calculated in RS2 just so they could stop low defence pures being so powerful.

From RS2 onwards I don't think Jagex really considered the possiblity of someone wanting to get 99 prayer in F2P. It'll be a great accomplishment, that's for sure.

Exactly. Defence is fine as it is, and has been for a long time.

Now get 99 prayer and soul war 99 attack/strength :thumbsup: But seriously, awesome account right there. i posted on your RSC thread ages ago, but congratulations again.

Firemaking isn't even that easy of a 99. Just relatively cheap.

The context in which it was being used was questionable, though humorous. :P Let him post it then?

lololol dey funni

Basically ROW does nothing for Aviancies and their adamant bar drops?

I like your item: Long bone.

And there's my point. Your opinion on this is irrelevant since it's simply a case of choosing whatever benefits you most, instead of looking at the bigger picture. You never made that point :lol: Nice to see you can take a joke aswell. :roll: Look other games can have it were defence means the armour reduces damge NOT a 50kg suit of armour makes you able to miss the opponants attack, it is highly illogical. A 50kg suit of armour should make you easier to hit but reduce damage, like in every other rpg. If it isn't broken don't fix it. Maybe cos bandos is a god armour, it is imbued with magic so it covers your body. With veracs it could be verac is protecting the wearer, who the hell knows but more importantly who the hell cares? Are you going to ask about mages next? How does there armour work? Maybe they imbue it aswell. If you read instead of skimming you'll see I did make that point. Maybe skimming is what stops you understanding logic? A 50kg suit of armour is going to make your opponent miss your body (thus doing damage) more often, not hit more often. If they manage to get into a weak spot of your armour and do damage, why would your armour reduce that damage? Just because other games have that flaw doesn't mean Runescape should. Jagex doesn't have to adopt every single idea from other games into runescape you know.

Dragon warhammer would be cool. So would dragon pickaxe.

That's the face I saw, but it could have just been a geometry joke. Anyways, that's the face I found. Lol I see it now.

My latest pure \

I chuckled.

i dun get it

You're funny. I think he means that Jagex rarely rushes to fix BIG problems. They only rush to 'fix' things nobody wants fixed.

Magic is for vengeance.

And there's my point. Your opinion on this is irrelevant since it's simply a case of choosing whatever benefits you most, instead of looking at the bigger picture.
