October 7, 200817 yr Kebab is sold for 1 GP at Karim's kebab shop. It is a food that heals randomly, and it's very cheap. But one thing is for sure, it heals 9 HP very often and 19 HP often. So i decided to test it to see if it is good for F2P Pking. Why would it be good for pking you might say, well: 28 kebabs cost 28 GP 28 lobsters cost 8036 GP 28 swordfishes cost 13188 GP 28 anchovy pizzas cost 15764 GP So the price difference is very big. I think using any of the food above can be used well depending on how you pk. Example pro pker can make up easily for what he spends. I bought 28 kebabs and then went to White Knights at Falador and let two knights hit me while i ate and noted down much hp i ate at and much i ended up with and also much i gained. Before you read the statistics below, here is how much 28 of other food heal total: Lobsters: 336 HP Swordfishes: 392 HP Ancovy Pizza: 504 HP Here is the statistics [hide=Kebab Round 1]56-75= 19 HP 65-65= 00 HP 60-79= 19 HP 59-68= 09 HP 54-54= 00 HP 48-57= 09 HP 54-63= 09 HP 56-65= 09 HP 56-65= 09 HP 60-69= 09 HP 58-67= 09 HP 57-57= 00 HP and -3 to strength, attack and defence 33-42= 09 HP 35-44= 09 HP 36-55= 19 HP 52-61= 09 HP 54-63= 09 HP 51-60= 09 HP 60-69= 09 HP 61-70= 09 HP 60-79= 19 HP 52-61= 09 HP 59-68= 09 HP 59-68= 09 HP 58-77= 19 HP 62-81= 19 HP 57-76= 19 HP 53-62= 09 HP Total= 295 HP [/hide] [hide=Kebab Round 2]56-65= 09 HP 61-70= 09 HP 54-54= 00 HP and -3 summon 43-52= 09 HP 50-60= 10 HP 55-55= 00 HP 45-45= 00 HP and -3 thieving 39-48= 09 HP 46-55= 09 HP 55-74= 19 HP 59-78= 19 HP 57-66= 09 HP 45-75= 30 HP and +2 strength, attack and defence 58-67= 09 HP 56-65= 09 HP 54-63= 09 HP 50-80= 30 HP and +2 strength, attack and defence 54-63= 09 HP 48-57= 09 HP 44-53= 09 HP 38-47= 09 HP 40-49= 09 HP 48-67= 19 HP 61-80= 19 HP 60-90= 30 HP and +2 strength,attack and defence 32-62= 30 HP and +2 strength, attack and defence 57-66= 09 HP 66-75= 09 HP Total= 350 HP[/hide] [hide=Kebab Round 3]60-79= 19 HP 52-61= 09 HP 30-39= 09 HP 28-47= 09 HP 39-48= 09 HP 46-55= 09 HP 51-60= 09 HP 61-70= 09 HP 47-56= 09 HP 48-48= 00 HP and -3 strength, attack and defence 38-57= 19 HP 52-61= 09 HP 30-39= 09 HP 36-45= 09 HP 44-53= 09 HP 52-61= 09 HP 59-78= 30 HP and +2 strength, attack and defence 44-53= 09 HP 43-43= 00 HP 37-46= 09 HP 40-49= 09 HP 50-59= 09 HP 59-59= 00 HP and -3 strength, attack and defence 51-70= 19 HP 58-67= 09 HP 55-64= 09 HP 63-72= 09 HP 61-70= 09 HP Total: 257[/hide] OK, i did only 3 rounds of testing and at the end i was a bit sloppy so i might have calculated total wrong at the 3rd round. So if i have please let me know. Now i wanna know what you think of the statistics shown and if you will be using it or not. As last question: do you believe this is is a good option to use for Pking?
October 7, 200817 yr What would be the amount of healing by the other food's if you used those in your tests? Want to be my friend? Look under my name to the left<<< and click the 'Add as friend' button!Big thanks to Stevepole for the signature!^
October 7, 200817 yr Author Sorry, i forgot to add those. But i updated just now, so look at first post again ;)
October 7, 200817 yr Kebabs aren't consistent with their healing. Also, all 3 tests you did came out at a lower score than the other foods.
October 7, 200817 yr Well I don't think so, no. Like you said kebabs heal randomly, sometimes you get a "bad kebab" and you get no healing at all and you find one of your stats was reduced a bit. It's not very wise to rely too much on "randomness" when you're pking, you don't always know 100% what to expect and I doubt the pkers are going to be patient and wait until you get a kebab that heals you well. In my opinion players that rely on kebabs in pking get owned 95% of the time. Pretty much what Dragon said.Thread terminated.I guess that means I'm the thread Terminator? No Tip.Iters were harmed in the making of this post.

In my opinion players that rely on kebabs in pking get owned 95% of the time. Yes, randomness is bad and pkers don't wait for you. But unless you are being piled by alot players you can do well. There is nothing stopping you from eating 3 kebabs in 1 go. Also these numbers came up very often: 9 and 19 HP, and it is rarely you get 0 HP healed just like how rare a 30 HP is. So it's better than salmon Kebabs aren't consistent with their healing. Also, all 3 tests you did came out at a lower score than the other foods. Yes but the price difference is big, and many players has invested in swordfish and lobsters for PVP worlds, so it will go up alot and the food supplies will be expensive. The price difference is for lobsters+kebabs: 8008. So you can see it's pretty alot. Yes, kebabs don't heal always alot but they have a steady healing atleast and they sometimes go beyond and heal you more than usual. I only did 3 tests, cause 4 would kill me as it takes time :oops:
October 7, 200817 yr I used to use kebobs for training, but I can't see them being highly used in pking since there's a chance they might not heal you at all. Most, if not all, pkers would rather get 12/14 hp of healing guaranteed, than only having a chance of getting 0-30hp healed.
October 7, 200817 yr They could be used if you cant really afford a full invent of lobs but really 8k isnt a massive amount, and if people are really concerned about the money they could probably just fish and cook them themselves. Tbh this would only be useful for poor/new players or people who do nothing but pk and want food fast (even though the G.E is probably quicker than buying 28 kebabs from the shop :wall: ). Theres a fine line between not listening and not caring,I like to think I walk this line every day. Pinning blame on Jagex is like trying to put pants on an old man. You both know he needs them, but he'll just keep dancing around, avoiding them at all costs.

Most, if not all, pkers would rather get 12/14 hp of healing guaranteed, than only having a chance of getting 0-30hp healed. That's understandable, but looking at price for kebab and lobsters it is big difference. Also i mentioned that you get 9 HP very often, the statistics show the same.
October 7, 200817 yr i think they wont be used so much,because its to random,and you can get -3str. ;) a full invent of lobs doesnt cost to much,for normall players. but some low lvls might use it :thumbup:

Anyhow the time i used to pk at BH with lobsters: to be honest i did not see much big difference using lobsters or salmons. And yes lobsters cost little, but many players run out of BH so they would do same in PVP worlds somehow. So you eat food, then your out of food: and you bank and take out more food which is more cash. But i personally if i pked, i would fish and pk as that is best :) But that's how i would do it P2P. F2P: has no bank at lobster+swordfish locations, so they must buy it or fish it. With no bank at fish spot, it makes it a disadvantage to fish them yourself in F2P. Kebabs are random, but not much! Look at the statistics, you get alot 9 HP healing!
October 7, 200817 yr Author you invested in kebabs? :lol: Yes i bought over 10K, i will get rich! \ HELL NO! :twisted: I am just discussing if they will be useful as lobsters+swordfishes are gonna be expensive.
October 7, 200817 yr you invested in kebabs? :lol: Yes i bought over 10K, i will get rich! \ HELL NO! :twisted: I am just discussing if they will be useful as lobsters+swordfishes are gonna be expensive. just joking Ot: i think not alot of people know about the kebabs...
October 7, 200817 yr Author Nice that you have sense of humour But the thing is: i have been at BH and i got not much kills and i really used alot food. Using food didn't guarantee me a kill/drop so i believe players will use alot lobsters. But we will see how PVP worlds is , but one thing is for sure: when pking you use alot food.
October 7, 200817 yr I always thought about this, kebab is the highest healing food in f2p. But the downside is of its randomness... I sure dont want to be pking with kebabs... Help Tip.it create a new RANGED MAX HIT CALCULATOR ~ crossbows, darts!
October 7, 200817 yr Was it used in F2p PKing before?? <-- I honestly don't know but I'm guessing not. Will it be used in F2p PKing when PvP comes out?? <-- Same answer as to the above (probably not.) Thanks to Quarra for the awesome sig!Xbox360 Gamertag = Tintin113
October 7, 200817 yr Lol, I went pking before with kebabs, I got amazingly unlucky and got 3 0s in a row, and back then 2 of those also damaged me for 4 :wall: . That combined with the 13s the guy was landed ended saving me 1 law, 3 airs, and 1 earth rune. ~It's Super Effective!

October 7, 200817 yr Author Lol, I went pking before with kebabs, I got amazingly unlucky and got 3 0s in a row, and back then 2 of those also damaged me for 4 :wall: . That combined with the 13s the guy was landed ended saving me 1 law, 3 airs, and 1 earth rune. I have used full bags of lobster and not gotten a kill, cause players in BH always run. Same thing will happend at PVP, players will run into Safezones. And as i have said: there is nothing stopping you from eating lots of kebabs in 1 go. So if 1 kebab don't heal you: keep eating :twisted:

October 7, 200817 yr I fail to see the discussion here. A couple of kebabs can heal you, great. Randomess isn't all that great when pking, really? Would you risk your whatever-it-is you carry around with you in a PVP world over some kebab that could, or couldn't heal you? Either way, wait a while and I'm pretty sure you'll soon find out if they'll be used. Follow me on Twitter!FORGET NOT THE CHICKEN.I have no intrest in helping "keyers" farm xp.
October 7, 200817 yr Lol I saw someone PKing with them a long time ago, they ate it and got koed. Come to #tip-it on Swift IRC, if you're cool
October 7, 200817 yr Maybe kebabs will be used for the welfare PKers :o 95/99 Summoning95/99 Slayer [hide=This is what you look like when you play RS too long][/hide]
October 7, 200817 yr Author Lol I saw someone PKing with them a long time ago, they ate it and got koed. Was that P2P or F2P? I fail to see the discussion here. A couple of kebabs can heal you, great. Randomess isn't all that great when pking, really? Would you risk your whatever-it-is you carry around with you in a PVP world over some kebab that could, or couldn't heal you? Either way, wait a while and I'm pretty sure you'll soon find out if they'll be used. I personally find it good idea to use. You are forgetting, the 0 heals kebab give is as rare as the 30s it gives. Most of the time it heals you 9 or 19 HP. So it's not so random. The price is very cheap for it as well. Though it's not a food that should be used for serious fights such as wars in PVP worlds.

I have used in FOG, and duration of it, is so little that i hardly notice it. Even if a mage used a bind spell, the player has upper hand cause a ranger or warrior can easily destroy a mage. And if you don't use mage gear, your bind spell will fail alot.
