No, the only threat is a normal hit like a GS, whip, d long/scimmy, etc. Multi-hit special attacks are NULLIFIED by the necklace! Looks like I'm gonna have to create a topic like this to stop the complaining lol

Its not to hard to die from a good combo, ive been killed numerously at or near full health in one shot before i even had a chance to teleport. More importantly, not everyones incredibly rich. Phoenix necklaces are your friend ;) And melee prayer as soon as you get the "You've been frozen solid and can't move!" message. I'm pretty sure it's impossible to get KO'd if you follow those simple instructions. Hasn't happened to me yet >_>

If they're incredibly rich, then they can afford to replace their lost items. Furthermore, that should rarely happen seeing as their advantage over normal players just increased by having the common player use welfare gear.

lol I thought you guys would get a kick out of it, since we've been going in circles with this discussion for 24 posts now :P

I went to Edge to fight today... some kid tried trading me then luring me out to wild. I told him, "I know you think you're being clever with your lil trade trick and I think that's adorable, but if you wanna fight me, you just have to ask and I'll gladly accept." I ended up tele'ing to MA where nobody was around to interfere (people don't take kindly to mages in populated areas :(). He took a while to arrive, I figured he was telling a friend about me to come rescue him. I was correct. He ended up running far away halfway through the battle. I just stayed put, waiting for his friend(s) to arrive. Sure enough, his buddy arrived in 50M in gear. After escaping him and his buddy, I asked him if he considered himself a skilled PK'er. His response:

One question... Have you ever ACTUALLY been a pker before? I think its pretty obvious he hasent. Judging from your responses to his post, I'm sure he's PK'd more than both of you combined lol

Nope. If it did, there wouldn't be people wind bolting everywhere lol

What ever happened to this?

We already have been, and 9/10 out of 10, you cant escape. Even, hypothetically speaking, if you have a full load of food and cheap equipment, you will get teamed by at least two mages and a melee. You dont escape, unless you are severely lucky, or under lvl 20. Apart from magic, firemaking, and cooking brawlers. High lvl wildy is required. And all the others that are semi low, are in multi areas. You dont win, unless you risk. Which is why we are talking about this in the first place. Most of us risked, the other 30% didn't. Now, the risks truely outweigh the potential rewards, seeing as you cant keep brawlers at all. If it's really that hard for you to use them, then just stop using them lol I've never used a pair and I've been doing just fine. . .

It's multi, with tons of clans Meh - don't use them then I guess. Not like you can use them without 67 hunter... at which point hunter's kinda useless unless you're catching chins Red herring and special plea. So you are saying it's OKAY to have brawlers to be useless? Your argument is based on YOU SHOULD LOSE IT BECAUSE YOU 25KED, yet forgetting regular pkers can get them, but can't use them. No, my argument is that the wilderness is a dangerous place and for such massive XP, there deserves to be a massive risk as well. I don't care about how people got their brawlers, Toast is a good friend of mine and I know he gets a lot of his brawlers from legit PK'ing. People who 26k and then whine cuz they can't use their "hard-earned" gloves simply have even less reason to complain. There's so much risk the rewards isn't even worth it now. There is a limit to when it's worth it or not. *shrug* I've never owned a pair of brawlers and never cared to hunt for them. I PK for fun not for loot, so doesn't really bother me \

Phoenix necklace makes you immune to dragon claws, dark bow, dds, etc. AGS is the only threat but most people with an AGS nowadays will probably be a hot target for anybody who sees them

They didn't have 10m+ weapons back in 06 :shock: metagame is so different from 06 I fail to see how that video holds any relevance. He risked 4.4M every time and he got PJ'd with 11 def all the time. Now we've got people with 99 defence and armor afraid to risk a 1.5M whip lol Not to mention he PK'd with all 3 combat styles... ...and got a kill, dropped food to make room for drops, got PJ'd, and stayed and fought to kill the PJ'er lol There's a very good reason why Mahatma's one of the very few people whom I hold in extremely high regard on this game lol

shouldnt you be doing this in non-pvp/bh worlds?? makes more sense that way I wish the majority of your post contained more then 1 line, and you missed the point. Please quit posting at every opportunity I'd say stop e-bullying him, but he isn't really getting the point lol

If he can PK with a skull and without item protection, I'm sure everybody else can too :)

Clockwork mice, anyone? :lol: They got nerfed... they only give about 5k XP/hour now instead of the old 30k.

That would just make people more likely to rush/PJ Or, even worse, just kill their friends with 2147M in their bag They ought to determine drops based off of how much you're risking and how much your opponent's risking... like, you'll only get a good drop if both you and your opponent are wearing 50M in gear. But if you're the only one risking 50M, or vice versa, your loot won't be very valuable. Edit: that wouldn't work either lol

Because now I can't ambush my opponents and kill them in two hits without risking my items! (sarcasm)

Kinda funny how none of this would've happened if they never implemented the trade limits. Damn those RWT'ers lol

Lol he's made over 700 posts in under 20 days God, that's disgusting. And from what I've seen, 90% of them are just useless and saying basically "i agree". It's okay, I don't mind. Khanda-whatever, I think I speak for all of us when I say "Either say something productive or shut the hell up." plus he's an idiot...first page "chia boy...can't wait now"...what is he waiting for? He's just oblivious to the game...btw, as soon as my xbox get's back from repairs..it's buh bye runescape, hello oblivion :) I find his posts quite shallow and pedantic. Let's get back on topic now, gentlemen. [/yuppie voice]

What about hunter? You can't risk and use them now. For hunter you could just bring your normal PK'ing gear, leaving a couple spaces open for the net, rope, and lizard, and wear brawlers instead of barrows gloves Edit: Addy gloves :P

The point of brawlers was only to gain XP. EP was just an additional benefit, which is still possible. Honestly, if you're risking your brawlers at the agility arena or in deep wild, then that means all the PKers who are attacking you there are also risking all their own [cabbage] by going that far from a bank. If you're really concerned about losing your brawlers, have a friend accompany you since I have a feeling most PKers are gonna be too afraid to wander too far from a bank with any super-valuable gear now. And if they do wander far with expensive gear, then they deserve to hunt you down.

75k is not a risk. 300k is MAYBE a risk. Considering you're making 1M an hour, I don't see how you can view 75k as a "risk." Ah, I apologize. I forgot what masterful skills were required to click "View Prayers" followed by "Protect Items." Yes, that's the point. You got the brawlers easily by doing something that isn't in the spirit of the game and then you gained massive XP from them. Furthermore, it was pretty much impossible to lose your brawlers unless you were too stupid to protect your items. Now it's fair. Like I said, most people are too smart to lose their brawlers when you don't even need a skull to use them. I fail to see the risk in wearing a pair of gloves and 3 other items knowing that one prayer nullifies any chances of losing anything, especially when you can keep the prayer on the whole time when in the wild. You sorta contradicted yourself there, but that's OK. Hey, if thousands of players managed to train to 99 agility and woodcutting without brawlers or SC tools, I'm sure you can too ;)
