Rc pking

[Tonis]

Excactly the same as pking rune miners. And I have never heard anyone blaming them. Personally I mine and I pk miners, so no problem with it.

 

 

 

Also, there's a possiblity that some people actually pk becouse it's fun or becouse of excitement, not becouse of becoming a little bit richer.

Well said. I don't rc pk for glories, I pk for fun. I can make enough money for 7-8 glories in an hour rc'ing. But pk'ing seems more fun. :XD:

 

 

 

I rc and pk rc'ers, how I roll. :twisted:

[RSBDavid]

rcers should use a different method like gliders if they dont like getting pked rather than making rants.. if you go into the wild expect to be killed

[i_trollz_u]

It never mattered to me as I had very good defence against magic and knew every way possible about how not to get killed rc pking.

[tuttle43]

I'm an abyss runecrafter and I can deal with loosing a glory and d'hide. I usually run back to where I died and grab my non-tradeable, then look for the pker. After I find him/her I'll ask to buy my stuff back and they usually sell me my stuff. I'm ok with that, it breaks up the repetition and I get my stuff back in the end.

 

 

 

The thing that I absolutely despise the most about being rc pked is having to get the damn pouches back. I'm level 77 runecrafting and I use all four pouches, that means if I die I have to get them all back. I have wasted so much time getting pouches that could have been spent on rcing. If it weren't for the pouches I would not feel so bad about getting pked.

 

 

 

summary: I can care less about losing a glory, it's losing pouches that lead me to despise rc pkers.

[sk8_tolivv]

I think that Rc Pkers are sad just because they attacking someone who,

 

1-Has ZERO prayer most likely

 

2-Is not prepared to fight

 

 

 

I would consider Rc Pking to be a different form of Pjing which most people don't like either.

 

 

 

But on the other hand it's not against any rules and the Rcers are taking the chance by going into the wild.

 

 

 

The only thing you can do about it is be a good citizen and kill the buggers.

[Triforceelf]

If you are skulled and be pked, its going to happen. It does not matter why you are skulled, just remember that you signed up for the risks. Sometimes those risks dont pay off. So quite whinning, you knew you could lose your precious pouches when you started doing this.

I understand that the abyss is placed there for a reason and theres risk with it but herssmy view on rc pking:

 

 

 

Rc pking is like walking up to an old lady and punching her in the face she's defenceless and unsuspecting. Rc pking is hitting a defenceless and unsuspecting person who is only trying to make a living.

 

 

 

I usually bring a seecrull or a dds while rcing and I hit the rc pker acouple times and every time they ran. I seecrulled a 10 on a guy he couldn't tb and he telied. Somy experiences that rc pkers are notready for us to fight back and run like girls.

 

 

 

So basically IMO Rc pking is for someone who likes to get free easy kills.

Punching old ladys in the face is considered a bad thing now? #-o ........ I better stop :P

 

 

 

 

 

Seriousally though.... good link (I say like as I can't spell annalogy (or is that right?))

[Chazimcgee]

Ive never rc pked so i dont know their perspective on the matter but as an rcer i dont like rc pkers due to the fact that they're disrupting my training and that is the only thng that annoys me. I have nothing against the personalities of rc pkers. Just they seem to attack the "weaker" people int he abyss. Thats my opinion :)

If all rcers carried seerculls ID start rc pking, thank god they arnt as dumb as you. :lol:

[reaper88888]

Rc pkers are just funny. They can't/won't fight real pkers, so they target skillers, and they use ~ 1 tb, a snare or 2/ice burst/barrage or 2 per kill, and maybe 1 out of 6-18 kills they get a glory. Is that really a profit? And if you want fun, just go pking with your friends in f2p... or go the pits. There are also all the times when ticked-off rcers grab pk gear and own the rc pker(s)... Tbh I think the main reason that rcers get annoyed is because every time they get killed, they have to spend hours getting their pouches back...Bottom line; there are so many things to do that are more fun and more profitable than rc pking, and none of them (except killing agility trainers/people trying to get god spells) are intended to do nothing but seriously disrupt people's training.... for a few cakes or fire runes... I know, I know, risk v reward, but seriously, all that happens is that a pissed off rcer end up flaming a guy who was 'just having fun'.

defenseless? unprepared? Are you kidding? I have 99 defense and a teleport. That alone makes me so prepared that I NEVER wear armor. The pkers will humiliate themselves as they fail to spec someone who who wears no armor. Sometimes I will just drink a dose of sara brew and let them tb+entangle me.

 

 

 

For them to pk me, they need to send their tb before the entangle, before i make it into the abyss, make sure neither of the spells splash, make sure no skeles attack them AND get decent hits on me. That's a lot of conditions that have to happen, and believe me it doesn't happen often. The amount of glories I randomly find in the abyss balances the number of glories that I have lost (meaning both these events are quite rare)

 

 

 

I have defense, I am prepared. If you have no defense and no preparation you are the one being careless, especially if you run around with a dds and a seercull. :roll:

Rc pkers are just funny. They can't/won't fight real pkers, so they target skillers, and they use ~ 1 tb, a snare or 2/ice burst/barrage or 2 per kill, and maybe 1 out of 6-18 kills they get a glory. Is that really a profit? And if you want fun, just go pking with your friends in f2p... or go the pits. There are also all the times when ticked-off rcers grab pk gear and own the rc pker(s)...

I quit reading there.

[Roberthree]

I normally RC with an Ancient spellbook (Edgevile Teleport>Glory Amulet imo). An Ice Burst or two tends to get the message across =P

 

 

 

Thank god they wear rune!

[fakeitormakeit]

Both sides need to stop complaining =P

 

 

 

I personally enjoy that there are RC pkers because they give me something to do when I'm running through the strip from ditch -> mage.

[ortiz9471]

I haven't crafted THAT many runes through the abyss, but I've done about 25-30k.

 

 

 

EVERY time I get attacked I go back out with dds/d scim, a super set, and sharks. I've never had a kill - they teleport out every time. About 3/4 give a fight and admittedly sometimes I run. I don't feel bad about running, as they run too. And I'm 94 combat, it's not like nobody attacks me. I get attacked a lot :wall:

 

 

 

There are some I have respect for, but I've never ranted about them having poor manners. They have no honor or respect, but it's a video game - who cares?

[RoyII]

I'm sorry but...

 

 

 

If you enter the wilderness, even just to rc, you are OBVIOUSLY risking your items.

 

 

 

If somebody sees that your entering the wilderness, with these items, why not kill you for them? :o

 

 

 

If somebody else sees that these pkers are weak, why not kill them for not only their items, but the original rcers items as well?

 

 

 

Oh look. Who supplies the Anti-Rcers with runes? The Rcers!

 

 

 

Haha. A triangle.

[RichieMcD]

My view on rc pkers is mixed really.

 

 

 

If im RCing then i get pretty angry if they actuly pk me, not if they attack me. What makes me most angry isnt losing the glory (sure i make up most of the cost of it within the first 4 charges) but losing pouches. It always annoys me to lose pouchs as it can take anywhere between 5 minutes to 40 minutes for me to get all pouches required.

 

 

 

But then when im skilling somewhere and sombody comes along saying ''Zomg i hat dos rc pkers n00bz!!!!!!!!11 i just replie that they entered the wildy on their own choice, theres a reason for the warning nd message and having to press enter when you want to go into it to access the abyss

 

 

 

And another thing just on what you are saying about rc pkers running often when i go back to fight them they tele just as i land my entangle spell on them or as soon as they see they are taking damage.

 

 

 

Basiclay it all gos back to RISK v REWARD basis

 

you can make roughly 280k gp per 1k of pure ess used. Thats a 190k profit for under a hours work. That being the REWARD factor

 

 

 

Then while you are using the abyss you are agreeing to entering the Wild. You therefore agree to being a target of pkers and if you get pked or a pk attempt is made. That is the RISK factor

[bbjoe282]

personally speaking form the "prey's" point of view rc pking isnt even that cost effective i mean if the pker would decide to rc through the abyss instead of terrorizing it he/she could make way more money and becides attacking someone who dosent fight back is like stealing candy from a baby or hunting in a zoo its totally pointless and just a testament to your lack of knowing how to pk and just pretending to do somthing instead of actually doing it is even worse of trying and failing.

[8omega8]

rc pkers are pests, nothing more, they're just a disruption, im yet to die crafting 20k nats, so im wondering wat the fuss about them is

 

 

 

what does annoy me is that some rc pkers are truly dogs tho, just today when i was crafting, this bloke tries to use ice burst + msb/dds spec to kill me, so i just think.. ok fair nuff, no tb = no probs, so i just kept doin my runs with him splashin and zeroin on me every trip, occasionally tauntin him for his lack of OWNAGE he was expecting

 

 

 

after a while that got annoying because ice spells could freeze u even if they dont damage, so i go my msb out and fight him, but hey, guess what? i do a pimpin 13-12 spec on him and guess wat the fool does? he prays range and then teles! i mean seriously, if ur gonna try and pk someone who dosnt fight back, fair enough, its the wild, but at least have the balls to fight when they fight back

[amitoz]

Pking is dead. GF rc pkers, not a single kill in 30k nats.

[ugafan_2009]

All the whiny RC'ers got their wish.

 

 

 

Mark off one more fun thing to do in RS...

[Obligatto]

I am both a runecrafter and a rc pker. I craft nature runes (and on occasion double cosmics) and when I see people crafting along side me my level, I'd come back with teleblock and a darkbow, kill them, previous to December 10th of course.

 

 

 

By elliminating other runecrafters nature rune prices stay up (previous to the Grand Exchange), glory amulets are bought more frequently, and I stay high on stock of them.

 

 

 

I tell them to play it smart and get a POH. I craft in a mithril pickaxe/square sheild with larupia camo and a gnome defence amulet. I bring a law/dust rune and I don't use pouches. What I lose when I die means almost nothing to me.
