OnIIx Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 I'll keep it short and sweet. A Range tank can be 104 Combat 99 Range/99 Defence/44 Prayer. Invincible to their level range, hit amazingly high and accurate, a maxed Zerker pure would be ripped in 1/2 a secound, like they'd even hit on 99 Defence. Even higher lvls can't bring them down, Range gives to little combat. And is 400K an hour when rich, 70K an hour when average, 99 Range looks a breeze with Xfering.. And yes, 1 Defense pures get ripped the most (Rune Knifes/Dragon Darts). Thanks :) Current goal: Legends, Regicide, Roving Elf's, Barrows RFD, 95+ Attack.

OnIIx Posted January 16, 2009 Author Share Posted January 16, 2009 Ancient Pures? 1 Def and 94 Magic? Put on Dhide Crossbow and watch em cry. Rune Pures ARE ANYTHING BUT OVER POWERED. They sacrifised DEFENCE for OFFENSIVE stats. Tanks got THE BEST DEFENSE AND OFFENSIVE stats. Timmy and had 99 Def and 99 Range Paul had 45 Defence, 99 Strength and 85 attack. Okay, Paul has lower Accuracey, max'es 45ish with a Whip, while TIMMY can max 63 with Dbolts(e), risks LESS (Dhide, C'bow, Bolts), just 80kish, Paul risks. 50K Zereker Helm 110K Plate and Legs Barrows RFD 100K or Rune RFD 5K Whip (Protected) DDS (40K) Strength Amulet (2K) Super Set (7K These add up :S). Also Timmy has basically the best offensive outfit, just under a 20M one (Armydal), with a Verac's/Torag's Helm which, well, Extremely defensive.

Let me guess, they got Full 3A range in their Invy with your Logic. Mages = Ice Barrage and have same hits/defense of range tanks. - I'm talking about Maxed out Tanks.

Omali Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Tanks are powerful, that's because they're designed to be. There are tanks in every rpg available, it's a tactic. And yes, 1 Defense pures get ripped the most (Rune Knifes/Dragon Darts). Nobody cares what pures think about combat. That's like asking someone who dodges paying taxes what they think about a tax increase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

compfreak847 Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Training a tank isn't that fast, considering you can't transfer money between accounts anymore. Well, technically, you never could, but everybody did anyways. Range training is faster and cheaper XP then melee, and you only have to train one skill. A tank is crazily overpowered, I've posted this many times but never thought of a rant. As a maxed melee player, I have lost to a range tank and defeated other maxed players as one. Do you think a 45 defence rune pure could do that? No, they'd lose instantly. A 99 ranger can hit on 45 defence faster then they can eat. They don't stand a chance. And the rangers get cheap armor and weapons with huge bonuses, crazily high hits, and great KOing potential. Range tanks are the undisputed champions of 105- PKing.

If you can fit a Veracs skirt and Torag Chest (99 def) with maxed mage bonus elsewhere you have barrage and mismic barrage and depending on what armour they use it could be a close fight(or the mager running out early) :wall: Pureprayer, you're awesome.

Riptide Mage Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Since when is there a difference between a mage/range tank? There is just tanks, since your magic and ranged levels can be even w/o raising combat a single level (just look at the stats in my sig). There is no such thing as being over powered, certain builds beat other build, as it has always been, the triangle is no longer a triangle, but instead an interwoven web of different character builds that can be defeated by other character builds. The only time you could say tanks were truely overpowered was rs1, when a level 25 could have 40 def and 80+ magic. You make it sound like running through a few level 87 monsters is hard which it really shouldn't be at your level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
