In F2P, melee has rune weapons and armor (40 requirement)

 

Mage has spells that go up to lv59.

 

Range has the green d-hide armor with 40 requirement but is lacking when it comes to bows. The best bow available is only lv30 required, it's the maple bow. I understand some reason to not give non-members yew bow is because they are one of the most commonly alched items. I think there is a good solution though.

 

 

 

I was also thinking today about yew bows, to make it so that they will not be alched I think it might be a good idea to give F2P yew composite bows. Not the normal yew bows of course, but just the composite. They are available only from treasure trails. Members would be able to sell them for a decent price if this were to happen (Which means it benefits everyone). Besides, with all the range options available to members I don't think most have a use for this lv40 bow.

I can't think of a good reason why not.

I still remember when only up to steel arrows were available for non-members and only up to oak (or willows) bows...but, i think it would highly affect f2p combat, especially pking if a new bow was released, then mage might actually become a weaker "side"

I don't see why not either. I support.

just think...

 

mage is overpowered in attack vs melee and underpowered in armour vs range and melee...

 

melee is overpowered in attack, vs mage and range and verry underpowered defence vs mage...

 

ranger isnt overpowered in attack or defence, beside you can kill a ranger easyly but will fail against a melee

 

 

 

the f2p combat triangle is perfect! :wink:

 

nothing to add/ remove... and the prayers make it even better!

 

 

 

edit:

 

if they also add rune arrows... range will be overpowered over melee and mage...

Don't need rune arrows, adamant are sufficient. The bow is the only lacking area in my eyes.

I would love it if yew comps were f2p

 

I have 5 in my bank :wall:

I support, I think this would make a pretty nice update for F2P, although Jagex would probably use this as their yearly F2P update..

Don't post suggestions about things going from members to free.

I don't support this... I am quite sure that the yew composites wouldn't balance the triangle, rangers would get a slight advantage and then the mages would complain and they are given something and then the meleers come and then we're back in square one with f2p having more items which are not enough for them.
