Protect prayers don't seem to protect 100% against monsters. I'd imagine they reduce damage, but I have yet to find out how to prove this. Piety also seems to be draining my prayer quite a bit slower. On the other hand, I heard turmoil is draining prayer very fast. I don't have 95 prayer myself, but I would understand why this is true. More powerful prayers (curses) should drain prayer points faster. Prayer flashing is practically useless now. I'm not sure if it works in the first place, but even if it did, you're hitting so often with abilities, you practically need prayer active every damn tick.

I decided to turn graphics back to max and on Directx... Surprisngly, it worked much better than min graphics. However, the game crashed when I tried to eat something... At least I can access my bank and check out stats on stuff.

Urrrgh, horse shit game keeps crashing. What world are you guys playing on and roughly where do you live? Maybe it has to do with the server locations.

THANK YOU!!!

Holy shit, I managed to homeport to Yanille. Let's see how this goes now that I escaped the dead zone. EDIT: Nope. I give up.

When I log in I get about 5 seconds before everyone's character loads and I'm screwed. I don't even have the time to homeport away to a less crowded area. When I DO homeport, I just dissapear and stay in the same goddamn spot. I might just log into regular Runescape, move over to a quiet location, then re-load that to the beta. EDIT: YOUR ACCOUNT HAS NOT LOGGED OUT FROM ITS LAST SESSION PLEASE [bleep] [bleep] [bleep] [bleep] [bleep] [bleep] [bleep] AND TRY AGAIN

70 def=barrows 75 def=bandos Can someone compare their stats? I managed to log on only long enough to look through a few skill level guides. As soon as I closed the window I crashed again...

Oh, that seriously blows... Get ready for herbs to skyrocket in price. Seeing as I can't log in for the life of me, can someone check something for me? I've been wondering what the defence requirements on barrows, bandos, nex armors, etc. are now. I hope bandos armor isn't just a straight up better version of barrows now.

Yeah, I'm having the same problem. This shit puts me in a really bad mood. Then I discover someone drank the last Coca Cola... Now I'm ready to murder someone.

Urrgh, game crashed.

Why doesn't it make sense? If you do not have a shield on your off hand, it makes sense to punch with it. It does make sense to use both fists (maybe trade in some defence for that option) but in the BTS video, they showed unarmed combat where the character used only her right fist. I'm not sure if they want to bother implementing this, though it would make boxing a bit more interesting. I'd like to point out if you don't hack my post apart I already explain why I think it doesn't make sense for it to be implemented. "Especially seeing as unarmed is kind of the basic no frills, no gear attack so why would they let you some how toggle it to do 'dual wielded' to punch at double speed." I did not mean it does not make sense physically, I meant in the context of what unarmed combat is to the game. Unarmed is incredibly weak normally, and with goliath gloves it's the equivalent of a whip. Why not allow players to toggle "dual wield" for unarmed combat? It makes perfect sense.

"Smoke = Air" Makes sense. Have you ever seen smoke in an airless environment? Well I know I never have. "Shadow = Earth" Also obvious. Rocks have shadows, and they're opaque; they cause shadows too. "Blood = Fire" Well duh. Have you ever felt blood? It's warm. You know what else is warm? "Ice = Water" I think this is kinda stupid. Jagex finally had a chance to undo this idiotic mistake. Water isn't always cold, Jagex. You aren't fooling anyone.

Opens on the 26th. Trust me, if it was open now, you would be hearing a lot more noise about it.

Notice that abyssal whip is "damage 300 bonus 700" and rune crossbow is "bonus 500". I assume it doesn't show a damage value because it uses ammo, and that probably is where the damage comes from. I'm not entirely sure what "bonus" means, but I'm guessing it affects the damage your special abilities do. Damage is for auto attacks, damage+bonus is for abilities?

I kinda like the idea of armor switching cooldown. It enforces people to stick with one combat style during a fight, instead of just switching through the triangle as they please. But I hope the cooldown isn't a huge detriment that makes it pointless to switch armor, but it should make armor switching more of a risky decision to make. It gives a short term disadvantage, but it could get you a longer term benefit if your opponent's style is trumped by what you switched to.

So today I finally got sick of soloing. EoE was a ghost town, so I decided to try some OFFICIAL DUNGEONEERING WORLDS. I know, I know, I hear they're terrible, full of shit players -- but I decided to try it out anyway. And the first dungeon... ...was a success! Sure, everyone else was hardcore survival prodding, but at least people were giving out and following commands!! Things went quite well (except for some dipshit who failed a mime room FIVE GODDAMN TIMES), and I was very happy with the outcome. Then I pushed my luck. I tried another dungeon. THERE IS NO GOD. OR AT LEAST THERE WAS BUT HE'S TOTALLY GONE NOW. THE NOOBS KILLED HIM. THE NOOOOBS. Yeah, that's right. Two ragequitters. First one left after dying twice to a mercenary commander. Second just slowly faded away as the universe realised it [bleep]ed up by ever putting him there in the first place. A few highlights: -5 minute solo ghost room courtsey of yours truly. Nobody came, I gave no [bleep]s and proceeded to bash so many ghosts. -Ranger danger!! Some idiot thought it was okay to use a saggitarian shortbow. It isn't. He's going to hell, I assure you. -Side note, the very same bow bro was also an accomplished chef. In the middle of a guardian door room he started a fire and started cooking. I saw him dropping burnt giant flatfish on the ground. It was the most depressing thing I've ever seen. FUN FACT: I've seen a man suffocate his own baby. -Some moron decided to do the impossible and be "at the other side of the dungeon" within the first 60 seconds after GO when we needed him to open up a door only he could. He took 2 minutes to get back to the start. You do the math. -Yes, I killed the boss with retribution. At least that was pretty cool. I am never dungeoneering with randumbs again.

:) Awesome, thanks! "UN"SPAM: H-YEAH!

I wonder what exactly it means by "100% weapon damage". Does it mean it always guarantees you hit your maximum normal hit? Or does it just mean you deal normal damage for that attack? That way 300% would mean it deals up to triple damage, but not guaranteed?

Looks awesome. I love the red and green motif. Those ladders leading down into a glowing green oblivion get me especially excited.

That is one badass picture! Congratulations! You really should've made a Zaros symbol with the purple fires. And if I may be so bold to ask, can you check if glowing eye auras work with right, left, or double eyepatches? Everyone I ask just says "i dunno" and "i dun wanna check".

Surprisingly not. They do complain about pretty much everything else, though.

I'm anticipating this as well. I'd rather have fun with combat and pay attention than AFK. If you'd rather just AFK, please get out. I don't want Jagex worrying about the game taking "too much attention" and dumbing things down for AFKers. Fun fact: It took me about 15 minutes to write out this shitty post. It better be worth it.

You must realize they aren't just "multiplying everything by 10". They're reworking absolutely everything. The ~15k lifepoint cap and a way to deal 5000 damage doesn't mean shit if we don't know the first thing about how the new combat works. As stated before, everything we've seen is liable to change. That is the whole point of a beta test after all.

Not only is it because of royal dragonhide, it's also due to the anticipation of the Combat Evolution Beta test coming up. People are speculating drastic changes in the combat system, so popular armor and weapons' prices are topsy turvy at the moment.

Okay, it's already been confirmed that the combat formula is going to be changed. Now can we STOP MAKING NEW THREADS ABOUT THIS SUBJECT?
