From Runescape.com News:

 

A small change has been made to single-way combat in the Wilderness. Player-vs-player combat now takes precedence over monster fighting, meaning that anyone in battle with a creature can still be attacked by another player. Before, a player could fight another player, run away, enter combat with a creature, and stop the other player from attacking them. All other single-way combat rules still apply, with only one player able to attack you at a time, and only one creature able to attack at any time.

 

 

 

Doesn't this change in Attack Priority affect abyss runecrafters?

 

Many of them use skeletons as "cover" while running into the abyss to avoid those nasty pkers attacking them. Now abyss rc pkers have an easier time killing runecrafters? Is that true? :(

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks for positing in the thread, you guys bring up valid points.

 

 

 

-It's the wilderness, so anything goes!

 

-This change may have been made to counterbalance the runecrafting update coming out later this month

 

-It sure helps with pking Green Dragon bots (Hell yeah! :P)

 

 

 

Less flaming, more discussion please.

as dalcyte said wilderness was designed for player vs playe5r combat and not abyssal runecrafting

just grab yourself a rc partner who's combat lvl is around yours.. and fight between yourselves to the mage.

just wear dragon hides and cross the bridge and go up the far side of the river, takes slightly longer, but you won't get pked.

Probably, but it is the wilderness. Who knows this could be the counterbalance to a new rcing update, maybe with bloods! The point of the Abyss was to make rcing fast, but with dangers. Risk and reward.

I'm not sure how it will effect rcing (which I really doubt it will), but killing green drag autoers will be pretty easy now :thumbsup: \ .

tbh it doesnt affect it at all

Hey Guess what there's already a thread about this named "Hidden update.." by muggiwphlar

complain complain complain, until everyone argues about every training aspect and making money aspect in the wilderness at the sametime (rune mining etc) which still doesnt make sense since its the wilderness and its supposed to have risk for you to be in there, then i especially wont care.

I don't really care about skeles when i rc so no they don't provide cover, just bring a sara and you should survive or have time to drop most items :)

yeah, it's gonna get harder to get past those pkers now

 

 

 

but what's really gonna get harder now is green dragon slaying

I personally have never been saved from a RC Pker by the skeletons nor have i ever been killed by one.

Meh, I never use the skeles for safety and I survive easily enough. Its not like its impossible to RC without the skeletons there; you'll just have to be a bit more savvy.

 

 

 

By The Way Capitalising Every Word Of Your Title Is Neither Big Nor Clever.

Yeah this been happening for a week. But now that it's announced..expect more people to try to get glories (lame I know) or pwnt people like how they pk in Wilderness Agility Course ( -.- ).

 

 

 

Just bring a Saradomin Brew (4).

 

 

 

I got a question though. If they teleblock you..does echopial or teleport crystal work?

Eh. More fun for rcers.

 

 

 

I need more mystic sets. :twisted:

Won't work.

I wasn't trying to be clever, the Stickys and Announcement threads are capitalized (just as titles usually are).

 

 

 

Stay on topic and keep snide remarks to yourself, thanks. ;)

The only thing this update will change is X-logging, autoer killing and Mage Arena. Unless you walk to the abyss. you out run the skeles after 1-2 hits. It'll be such a pain to do Mage Arena on Noes.

They need to put some green dragon's somewhere else than the wildy :/

There are Brutal Greens at Barb place. But they're a high level I'm pretty sure.

 

 

 

Ooh, I just thought. What if Jagex made the Brutal Greens outside of wildy in preperation for this update. :shock: I could be wrong though...

Normal greens pls.

Bot-fest if Jagex ever put them out of wildy.

 

 

 

Brutal green dragons are like 10x harder but only 2x the rewards.(2 dragonhide per kill)

It won't affect runecrafting but it will harm green dragon killing and other aspects of training. A poor update really.

I can see that this will help a lot with killing green dragon gold farmers. :D

It will, but I, for once, don't care. Hit 99 RC in August! \ \ \ \ \
