F2P Str ammy vs Power Ammy (see bottom of page 3)

Featured Replies

Strength Ammy is +10 str

 

 

 

Power Ammy is +6 in everything

 

 

 

which do u pick. of course for a pure its no doubt str ammy but some players (not pures) still prefer to wear str ammy and im one of them. my reason is that it is garanteed to raise ur max hit by one. power ammy doesnt do that but i feel that runescape is alot based on luck. i dont believe that those +6 really help that much. i would rather just have the feeling that i know for sure my max is one higher that it normally is rather than not knowing for sure wat my power ammy is doing. i know im sounding confusing but i like the feeling of knowing something as a fact. when a monster or player hits 0 on me. i dont go oh. thx to my handy power ammy. but when i hit a 15 instead of 14 i say. thx str ammy.

 

 

 

i want ur reasons. this is f2p and these r the 2 best ammys for melee. which do u choose?

Power Ammy for balance. I think Strength is a bit overrated and I hate seeing 0's - especially in F2P. I'd much rather hit more often.

I'm p2p so i use a glory But when i was F2P i used an Ammy of power cuz it still can give you a extra +1 and it has the stat boosts. So that would be my choice.

I use a power cause it adds a bonus to both attack and strenght. So if you have low attack but high str and wear a str ammy, I'd think you'd be hitting alot of zeros.

I'm every strategic when it comes to these things.

 

 

 

If I need a higher chance to hit, then I go with power ammy

 

 

 

If I need to ensure a one hit kill, I'll go with str ammy.

 

 

 

If I want my prayer to last for nearly 4 minutes, I'll go all out monk with a sara ammy

 

 

 

Weapons are also an important choice here...

power ammy all the way

 

 

 

i like its ballance and ive allways been a def noob allong with the bunch so it just seems more rational to use power ammy. just my opinion

 

(i find that pures are ignorant to worship strength and think it holds all the answers btw)

I have *never* worn a power amulet. Not once, I do have a magic amulet, a strength amulet and a holy symbol (and at times a defence amulet :-$)

 

 

 

Don't alienate me :anxious: :lol:

A strength ammy has +10 strength

 

A fury ammy has +10 attack in everything, +15 defense in everything and +8 strength.

 

 

 

Okay, you'll hit higher with a strength ammy, but no one is going to argue that a fury is overall better than a strength ammy. Accuracy is an often ignored part of combat: people just don't care if they hit "0,0,0,20,0" instead of "5, 15, 8, 10, 2".

 

 

 

I use the power ammy, because it's overall better.

Power ammy's might not get your max 1 higher, like the str, but it gives you a balance. Not only will you have improved strength but also attack and defence as well.

Strength ammy, the whole point of a power ammy is to increase everything, as a melee you have good enough defense against everything besides mage, hitting high is better than having a little more defense. If you already have a high accuracy weapon then the damage is more important then a little more accuracy.

 

The only point i see for power ammy is the slight prayer boost but at +1 that is almost negligible.

I have never made but one prayer to God, a very short one: 'O Lord, make my enemies ridiculous.' And God granted it.

Power ammy. That's usually because I'm ranging though (in bh).

Come to my Clan chat (I'm there if I'm online) if you wish to borrow a Green H'ween mask, Blue H'ween Mask, Red H'ween Mask, or Santa for a reasonable price.

Has anyone noticed it says for melee?

I hate seeing 0s when I know I could be hitting at least a 5 if my attack made it through and hit my opponent.

Yes Furys are better (BUT NOT FOR A F2P) but you pay a lot more for them obviously. Also power ammys til about 70 str to get your hit ratio up, then str ammy ftw

I know that furies aren't F2P.

 

People tend to choose strength ammy over power ammy in F2P, because it has a higher strength bonus. But if I gave you the choice between a fury and a strength ammy, most people would chose the extra accuracy (even though fury has a lower strength bonus than strength ammy).

 

 

 

Sure, a strength ammy will occasionally make you hit higher, but a power ammy, with it's increased accuracy, will make you hit more overall, just like a fury would.

I have 80att/75str, and i prefer the power ammy. The only good thing about the str ammy, is that you cant get it trimmed. Balence is ftw.

I use a power ammy, 6 attack and 6 strength is better in my eyes. I win with it on strength pures. Sometimes i first wield a holy (15% str, 15% att, 15% def and protect mellee) till pray is empty and switch to power, that works also good.

I wear a power ammy because i really think f2p weapons have a really bad attack bonus and hardly hit, id rather hit than hit less often but 1 damage higher!

I use the power ammy because it's more balanced. The +1 prayer doesn't hurt either.

its not really a no brainer. str ammy insures u to have a higher max and powers give 6 in everything. is that 6 that much to really impact something? if yes then u r a power ammy if no then u r a str ammy.

Power amulet.

 

 

 

I like never do melee anyway so. :P Gives you def bonus so that's my choice.
