need help on f2p r2h KOing

[shock1171]

Hi, im a f2p lvl 49 Pure strength. my stats are 40 attack, 65(almost 66) strength, 5 defence(for training), 44 range, 45 mage, 1 prayer, and 57 hp. im a very bad pker because im not good at koing and im not good at knowing when to eat. can someone please explain the art of koing to me and gimme some tips on anything related to pking. thanks btw...i use a rune scimmy and a rune 2h

I would say raise your range until it maxes out for your cb (because it raises hp which is the best thing for a pure).

 

 

 

Also, they key to the 2h k0 is to wield the 2h right when the scimmy or arrow is about to swing/shoot. Ideally, right click 'wield' the 2h and then try and click the enemy 1 or 2 times right away to hit him as fast as possible. Don't forget to switch back to the other weapon as fast as possible to not lose a combat turn.

 

 

 

Remember, practice makes perfect. So practice a lot on guards, for example.

 

 

 

If you have any other questions, shoot!

thanks for the tips.....when i try to do what you said it always waits like 7 sec. b4 hitting and they have time to eat....its really annoying

The point of clicking right when you would hit with your other weapon is that there is a bit of glitch in that the hit acts like its coming from the 2h (ie: higher damage), but with the speed of the weapon that came before it...

 

 

 

If, however, you swing the 2h after the weapon before it would have gone, it acts like you took the turn to switch weapons. The timing is key. Seriously, different people think of the timing different ways. The best advice i could give you is to be patient and practice a lot before going to wildy.

 

 

 

When you look at all those videos of range/2h, you might see that a ton of the battles come down to both players having VERY low hp. This is because most of the time, your k0 should be at a moment when you are taking a risk of getting killed.

 

 

 

Truthfully, most of those pkers only win more than 50% of their fights because they are good at choosing WHO they will fight. If the best players fought each other over and over, it would come out to about 50/50 simply because so much of the k0 depends on luck.

 

 

 

Which brings me to my point that the best players ARE the best because they allow the battle to come down to luck. That is, they have trained the combo so much that skill comes out of the equation since they perform the 2h switch so perfectly and their timing works.

 

 

 

Like I said, PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT. Good luck.

k...and should i get 31 pray, 25 pray..... or just keep only gettin strength ooops didnt mean to write twice

i think this is a good question. its easy to train a new char to be a pure, but is there a good guide for how to actually pk, like eating, koing, etc?

[Kahote]

The general rule is to keep pray at 0 for f2p... (because the advantages don't quite even out with the extra combat levels as much as p2p).

 

 

 

 

 

And for shade, the general rule is to observe your opponent so you know approximately their max hit and k0 combo. Once you have read them, you should add about 5 hp to their max hit comb0 and pretty much eat then unless like i mentioned, you are taking a risk to k0 them...

 

 

 

I hope that answers your questions...

k, but when i see pure strengths my level with ultimate strength prayer put on they hit hard with great accuracy.....and they can hit 1 extra damage to their max hits with it...so i still dont know if it is or isn't a good idea to get up......aaaarrrrggghh this is so frustrating
