Mithril_Max Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 I wonder if Jagex even thought of this, kind of a "oh wow I just remembered these" moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jessy87 Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 maybe I don't see what your saying but, Godswords are 2h right? and a defender goes in the shield spot, so the only weapons it would really help are whip and scimmy right? Yes but one more piece of really good equipment that is untradable and can be picked back up will make the triangle become very isosceles, or scalene triangle, depending on how you rank Magic and Range in there. Amirite ill agree that its a toss up between range and melee now lol. because damn. magic is on the loosing end now, especially if melee dhides it up. but hey, mages cant complain that much, they did finally get a ranged armor to lower melee stats. it might be 80mil, but its out there.

BAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW. This argument has been made since forever. Try fighting a tank on a non-pure, and watch how badly you get owned. Range is as every bit as good as melee, and there should be no arguments to that at this point. It's just obvious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course they could do that with rune def as well, but just to emphasize it all, with all of these new things to add to melee, it's not going to happen, at least at any time soon. It will be a long time if it does come out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kosz Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 NO NO NO!!! Dragon defender would be horrible. Just another thing jagex would do to help the poor. Dfs just came out and if d defender would be release that would make me dfs drop :wall: No they better not release it unless you have to do the same thing for dfs kill dragons till you get a piece and then pay a guy to make it for you. Its very stupid that people can just get the best shield by killing a lv 80 while other people spent days killing iron dragons to get visage.

xvillexvalox Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 I would see the Dragon Defender as being untradable, hard to obtain, and disapearing automatically when you die. Imagine this: A quest requiring Legend's, RFD, and all of the Fremnik area quests, unlocking a new minigame in which you have to pay with a rune defender to get in and hopefully get a dragon one as loot or as a reward. =P~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jessy87 Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 It's not even that though... Magic is such a supplemental skill now... i dunno about that, all i have to say is i am a warrior. theres no way around that. magic reminds me today, how ranged kind of was a while ago, just kind of have to be careful of what happens, like more so then other combat forms. but we all have to remember, everything gets its turn or at least thats how it appears to me, it was melee forever then all the sudden range gets beefed up and im not talking like how melee got small items here and their, no no oh god now, ranged REALLY got an update all the sudden. with melee it was like, fury beserker obby shield rune defender fire cape rune boots getting a str bonus... all that was slowly introduced to keep melee with a leading edge on magic. now that ranged is the way it is, a ranger really is one hell of a fight. i cant seem to pull off any good ranged stuff in cw... but still ive seen ranged do some stuff. but yes back to magic, it seems magic and ranged are always the alternate combat forms, however magic does seem a bit lacking lately and well, since magic had ancient spells for 2 years now(?) it seems its taken a back seat to everything. Oh, i getcha. i thought you were reffering to the current day. Sorry. Yeah, the DD would completely destroy everything doesnt it already? i mean my god its strong and with a dragon fire, if im not mistaken since i dont own 1, couldnt you spec like double 30's and hit the release button on the shield for a ko? or try to do that after you get a good vengenace hit on them. DFS+DDS+veng im thinking whatever you ran into might just die(provided venge did like 20?) NO NO NO!!! Dragon defender would be horrible. Just another thing jagex would do to help the poor. Dfs just came out and if d defender would be release that would make me dfs drop :wall: No they better not release it unless you have to do the same thing for dfs kill dragons till you get a piece and then pay a guy to make it for you. Its very stupid that people can just get the best shield by killing a lv 80 while other people spent days killing iron dragons to get visage. if they released it, it would be a challenge to get. and, how is it stupid some1 can kill a few green dragons and get 1, when some people goto irons and get UNLUCKY, because to kill greens and get 1, your are SUPER lucky. its even rarer then the left half or so ive heard. and alot of people have and havent had left half drops. honestly, all i see the dfire shield being is an item of investment i had this discussion before with a friend the otherday, its an item that wont drop over like 1mil rite? because oziach has to make it for that price. and i dont think the dfs will be 1uped for some time. until then enjoy it.

Skatebdr515 Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 Well, Id have to say that I dont know whats up with the no's as Jagex said no Dragon Full Helms. I can see Plates and Kites and maybe Defenders in our future. Id say +7 Str bonus, and around 4 times harder to achieve. | Dragon drops: 5 | GWD drops: 8 | DK drops: 4 | Obby drops: 2 | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R_I_O_T Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 why is everyone obsessed with dragon items, everyone is awlays saying, the should make "_____" in dragon, and "_____" etc etc, if somoen wants an item improved, dragon, someone wants a new item, dragon Why? whats so special about dragon?? They should make a dragon pickaxe. :lol: Dragon defenders would look pretty cool but the after effects of having one could once again change pking and other things quite a bit.

xpx Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 if they are very very difficult to get(same as dfs maybe) and able to lose them, then yes, otherwise- no, i wouldn't like every second noob running around with one.

Soulthresher Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 What would the stats be really? +21 +23 +25 -5 -5 +21 +23 +25 0 0 with a strenght boost of +1 or maybe +2? It would probably be quest related and be hard to get not to mention untradeable and would piss alot of pures off because they can't wield it :roll: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Observer Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 I think it would be a good idea. They are popular. The only problem is, the price of the obsidian shield will drop like a stone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
