gongusan Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 So I tried out the new pvp on my pure, Y U So Nub, he has 40 def with 60 range, and I must say it sucks. Every single time I start to beat someone, they run into the bank with like 5 food left, and on top of this, our [developmentally delayed]ed character just keeps running into the wall of the bank, and while I'm doing that my opponent just runs up the ladder. Another thing is we have virtually nothing to ko with, a range 2h combo is terrible at low levels, and also range is terribly underpowered. We have, at our best, addy arrows with a max hit at 60 range of 11 or 10 or something, how the hell can I kill someone with that? Can't we at least have yew bows with rune arrows? So basically what I'm saying is don't bother trying to pk as a rune pure at low levels in f2p, and tbh even high lvl pking is the same, on my main, Silomin, everyone I started to beat just ran... It's ridiculous, Jagex should extend the attack time in the bank or at least make it so after you run into a safe zone while being attacked, you can't go up ladders. Either that or give us something other than a bloody rune 2h to ko with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moad14 Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 It seems you want to control other players. Player killing has always had people who teleport, run away, or go to a safe spot. Don't forget they want to make a quick buck too. I'm sure you would get out if you were on the bad end of a fight. :roll: You appear to also want F2P to have access to members items. Seems a bit pointless to me, when Jagex wants you to become a member to use such weapons. Free players have a lot as is I think, and should stop asking for more freebies. You chose to make a pure with pathetic free player options when you already have a member main with access to any weapon. I love to meet people; send me a pm if you see me on RuneScape! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe my main is in the process of becoming a pker for p2p? Free players deserve something better than a max hit of 18 at 99 range imo. And fyi my main doesn;t have access to any weapon, I can't afford a gs :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A single members PK of dragon scim and black hide was worth more than a ranger pure in FTP. 99 Crafting :: 39,750th || 99 Attack :: 1,775th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my opinion free players don't deserve anything more. They merely mooch off the game that members support. I don't care one whit about the advert argument, it's not nearly the same. Also, when I said you had access to every weapon, I mean that once you have the money and have finished the quest to wield it (if applicable), you can use it. A free player who has hundreds of millions can't use a godsword, etc. I love to meet people; send me a pm if you see me on RuneScape! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omali Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 ITT: Pure mentality. OMG STOP trying to save your items! Let me pee-kay you! Oh and you've been playing for at least a year now, yet you haven't taken a notice to f2p pking until now. Selfish intentions, much? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lady_Shahdie Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 Woah seems you're spitting alot of sour grapes there! Range is slightly underpowered in f2p but once you reach 80-99 range you rangers literally dominate PVP. I cannot tell you how many close encounters (and deaths) I've had to high level range pures recently :P. They literally dish out 12-16s faster than I could ever hope to hit a 16-18 with my rune scimmy/rune b axe/rune 2h. Your rant does not have much basis and is mostly ranting about not being high powered enough (yet) to ko your opponent. The cure to your frustration is not higher grade weaponry or safe spot tweaking...the cure is just getting your range level up a wee higher. Sure its more risky to have a higher level pure but trust me I fear and respect high level rangers. They are the bad boys on the battlefield that kill you in cold blood in literally seconds flat. ~Retired 13-July-2010~Thanks for the great memories folks :).

compfreak847 Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 You do realize that rangers, for their level, can dish out more damage per minute then ANY other combat style? I used to have an FTP range pure at 70 range; I could kill mages and destroy ANY pure meleer. With addy arrows, I could generally hit faster then they could eat. I got quite a few KOs simply by hitting several 12s in a row. Rune arrows are very good, even in members - on low level monsters, they are much faster XP then a crossbow. For quite a few situations, they are the best - they certainly shouldn't be made FTP.

josh181830 Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 I think it's fine, try killing unprepared skillers.. you can get loot from them.. and no, the loot isn't trash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makoto_the_Phoenix Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 I have three F2P pures, X Makoto X being only one of them. And recently, I was able to kill someone in full Rune in Lumbridge Swamp. TL;DR: If you're going to really PK, and I mean really PK, get the hell away from banks.

alcoolj Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 I have a 70 range, 60 str, 40 att, 1 def, 1 pray pure that does quite well in F2P thanks. Q: Do you run to your bank when you are losing a fight? If so, pls leave now. Heed this advice: Get a KO hit above 18, and PK further away from banks. If you cant kill em before they get to safety venture further away from a bank. ½ way between varrock and lumby ought to do nicely or better yet, wildy :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trollface Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 Dm other players. That's the only way to get a good profit from pking. do a dual inventory check before hand, so both players can be sure the other one isn't cheating by having a tele in their inventory.

Yomyth105 Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 I agree that f2p needs some ko able items. teleports r annoying and they should take it out while someone is in combat. other than that if u want to avoid this best stay away from banks.

sees_all1 Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Is this a rant about the new PVP, or just a cry for members objects for f2p? Please do not mix the two, because I enjoy the new PVP, and I don't think that it is unbiased for "low levels." - Level up, nub. I also enjoy the fact that you get 10 seconds to kill them after they run into the bank, alot better than, cross over the ditch and be done. 99 dungeoneering achieved, thanks to everyone that celebrated with me! ♪♪ Don't interrupt me as I struggle to complete this thoughtHave some respect for someone more forgetful than yourself ♪♪♪♪ And I'm not doneAnd I won't be till my head falls off ♪♪ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JIM Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 If they extended the time you can be attacked after running into a bank, at higher levels anyone with Void Range, a Dark Bow and a decent ranged level would be rich.

BabyPunchers Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 New PvP for low lvl f2p pures: See bolded. And you can shut up about no ko power. You chose to get range up and not strenghth, jsut like you choose to be f2p. Want ko power? Become f2p. Don't whine that you want more. Thanks to all those who have messaged me concerning a revamp of my Range-Slayer guide. Because of you all I will start rewriting it asap.[/color] Formerly RobinHoodie.

Tactics. You have plenty of items thats work fine. Don't sook about people teleporting. They are the smart ones, who take advantage of your imbalance. Do you people even realise WHY pures exist in the first place? Your combat level is based on HOW DANGEROUS YOU ARE IN COMBAT. That is how it is possible for a pure in this game. People aim to keep their combat level as low as possible. But that has side effects! If you had magic levels, you could just snare or entagle them when they try to run, or teleblock them at the start of a fight. If you had prayer levels, you could boost your stats, giving you an extra "edge". You chose not to have a balanced character. YOUR choice. Nobody elses. Jagex has never "hated" pures, like all the F2P PKers whinge about. They've always stated that balance is key. If you have a balanced character, pures should not be a serious threat to you, because you always have an option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_Shalaj Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 Another thread complaining about pures. If you decide to be a pure, face the consequences! Oh and btw, the only reasonable sentence I find is about you getting stuck when targets run into a safe zone, but hey, you always do that with monsters don't you? The only suggestion I can add is that Jagex keep the "Attack Thanks.. Lord Shalaj [99 Woodcutting] [99 Strength][99 Hitpoints] "What will come, will come....We will have to face it when it does!"
