You make a very good point lol i tried to say that myself but....maybe it didn't come out right Also.....I have never seen someone "out eat" a mager...... thats almost impossible unless you have a low mage level there is a bigger lag between food than there is between hits, also there's the fact you can't hit while your eating, you can't win without hitting even if you could "out eat" a mager I say mage melee and range are indeed even

Is there a place to become a writer on this site, or do you submit articles?

:thumbdown: I'm sorry to say but i completely disagree, the write makes good points but......Where is everyone getting mage is weak?!?!?!?! #-o This i kinda annoying to me mage is not weak at all period mage isn't weak an average magicks user can easily take almost any player down in 5 -7 hits i'm not very experienced with mage but i fight magers enough and heres what happens i get frozen take a few hits get hit another time while running towards them and normally dead before i get to them and by the time i reach them i MAYBE get one or 2 hits on them and then i'm dead mage for p2p is not weak A person with a god sword can't kill a mage without hitting them..... and range is supposed to beat magers -cb triangle- #-o Sorry i just exposed my own ignorance a little bit there :wall: I do not completely disagree with the article just....about the parts about mage being weak it is true actual damage is weak but you can still kill easily before getting hit I believe the term is quantity over quality in this case

What might be a good idea is a secondary pole for articles, people vote for the most interesting 5 maybe, although how to narrow it down initially is a work in progress, this would help make it more interesting, although some people might not like it because it spoils the article surprise. On the other hand..... there may just not be anything interesting to report on.... *side note/question* is there a place to write/ submit articles or volunteer to become a writer?

I read them if i see them i want to see another persons opinion

Hey congratz I don't know you but congratz anyways \

The whole entire point of mage is to kill someone BEFORE they hit you, this is why i can see no point in defensive spells, and does anyone remember prayer? that's what its there for to defend and or boost and mage in f2p is slightly underpowered but its not horrible and if you use ancients then your extremely strong its rare i see a meleer take down a mage with ancients p2p mage is not underpowered, in fact it is purely offence that's why there's no defensive spells (if you want to know why i'm saying its purely offensive refer to my other post) *I am not disagreeing that mage has weak defense*

A fourth spell book would completely ruin the combat triangle now the reason i say this is because.... look at range vs. melee melee wins by the triangle -melee does win because melee armor gives defence against range there fore they can hit them which is the weakness of range because there armor gives very little defence against melee range vs. mage range wins by the triangle -range does win because of the fact that mages are getting hit with very little defence although they can get hit back they have very strong defence against mage mage vs melee mage wins by the triangle -mage does indeed win (even with the godsword) because melee armor gives low defence against mage and they can be entangled or frozen so they cannot hit the mage with defence the mages have an unfair advantage every side has to have a weekness and a strength and the fourth book would get rid of the weakness of mage and therefore ruins the triangle I am not saying its flawless but that is the general way things work most of the time

I really don't think another spell book is needed, i'm not saying that mage defence isn't a problem its just that defensive spells seem almost like a useless idea (no offence to anyone) but thats kinda what prayer is there for (defending and/or boosting)

I really think that the mage skill is kind of over done and maybe even overly powerful. I you look at it some of the most siginificant quests deal with mage and, it has one of the most complex ones ( desert treasure.) If your just looking at quests then there is many many more quests that have some mage requirement or some side requirement that deals with mage. If you move onto combat its almost ridiculous, ancients can kill very fast with many spells that poison or paralyze, and an average mage can kill many skilled meleers before they can even get a hit on them (don't say the god swords make up for this they're useless if you can't hit someone.) Basically my point is mage might've been one of the weakest skills in the past but now it can be by far the strongest.
