Revs, why do they attack.

[Grogtholomew]

Ok, so i was just recently at green dragons in the eastern wildy. and a rev -what-the-hell-ever- came along, this rev attaked me from as far away as i could possibly see with the given runescape camera angles... attacking me instead of the half dozen or so other players within the path of the magic attack.

 

 

 

what i'm asking is do revs attack players wearing certain armours, or that have certain stats?? maybe people wearing more expensive armour? why would this npc single me out to attack over the dozen or so people hanging around green drags. who were WAY closer to it.

[Lacoste]

You don't actually think they target people with expensive armour or certain stats do you? -.-

 

 

 

It has to do with the rev level, and your own combat level.

[Grogtholomew]

i understand that. but i was around at least a dozen people who were either very close to my level or at my level. the rev skipped them over.

bad luck lol. It's kinda like why *I* always get the sandwich lady.

[RSBDavid]

No offense, but if revs have a pker-mindset, wouldn't they go for weaker/defenceless targets?

[Inuashakent]

It targeted you, and it'll continue to target you until you get out of its wandering zone (which is the whole wilderness...) or you run away far enough.

The problem is that Revs have extremely long range and a freezing spell.

 

 

 

Why would Jagex ever want to create a monster with such insanity is out of my league

[D. V. Devnull]

Grogtholomew, were you there longer than the others? Did you happen to be carrying something really valuable in your pack? Is there a chance that you looked like a macroer to Jagex's systems? :-s

 

 

 

If you can answer these, I might be able to figure out what happened. :geek:

[Grogtholomew]

i had whatever drops in my invent (few hides, rune dagger, nothing special) i was, however, wearing dragon med helm, legs and boots. abyssal whip, granite boddy and obby cape. so i was wearing a great deal of valuable equipment..

 

 

 

i was at the dragons for at most 10 min, almost everyone else had been there longer. and i don't believe i would look like a macroer to the system, i was talking to people and not really fighting drags in any particular order.

(on a side node: why the hell you wield a d med!)

[pinguimmaiden]

The renevant attacked you cause you were his lv, so he could only attack you :roll:

There were several other people there that happened to be Grogtholomew's level, so that doesn't add up. :notalk:

 

 

 

~Mr. "Other possibilities?" Devnull

[pinguimmaiden]

So renevant chose him for any reson, maybe cause he was the nearest around his attack range :thumbup:

Seriously, compared to the old pkers, Revenants are as powerful as imps (except the dragon ones, they scare me :P)

Are you fighting them on P2P or F2P? One revenant takes a whole five-man team to kill it on F2P. :wall:

 

 

 

~D. V. "Well?" Devnull

Yea, F2P revenants are just stupid.

[kdtaereo]

Well, the best possibility is bad luck

 

 

 

I don't think they are so smart at this point

[Eddo89]

Around his level? Combat 88. Around could mean they were all 90s, but he was around them but also the lowest. Which could mean, the Rev could only attack HIM. Or it could be the other way round.

 

 

 

Also, he could have been on the edge of the area, hence when the Rev comes, he is the closest target.

cuz revs are [developmentally delayed]ed and made for having fun with f2p compilemtns to jagex
