Nothing wrong with summoning.

[Seraphi]

You forget, 90% of pures are idiots who cannot, and will not, accept any changes to the game, and wish to remain in some nostalgic pool of their own failure.

 

 

 

The other 10% are okay.

really there just is no need for me to have summoning and "level 82 (+11)" just doesn't appeal to me.

 

 

 

Why not? A level 82 with 90-95 summon isn't all that bad.

 

 

 

 

 

did you read all of my post? I fully explained... the opportunity cost is just too great. The loss of time I would incur by training summoning, in my mind, doesn't add up to the amount of time I could have spent doing what i enjoy doing on my tank. (pking and training). Plus summoning wouldn't add all that much efficiency to the things i do on my tank.

I don't have summoning on my pure because he is exactly that, a pure. An account whose sole purpose is pking. I have no need to spend hours on a skill that has no real bearing on the one thing I enjoy most with that account, pking. There are three activities I do on my pure, train, pk, kill green drags for pking supply money. I have a range tank, training is already ridiculously efficient/easy with chins. While summoning would help with killing green drags, i'm really not camped at green drags long enough to make the time wasted training summoning worth it. I may kill green drags an hour every other day to make up the difference from pking. As it stands now, most pks i get don't add up to the expenses i incur from my equipment. my average pk is around 150-200k and i pk with sea turtles rune knives and dragon bolts (e).

Yes, I'm not saying summoning is entirely useful for a pure (it is, just not that much), I'm just saying it shouldnt be looked down upon just because of the +9 or something.

 

 

 

Pures don't look down on cooking, fletching, crafting, all these other "useless" skills, why look down on summoning.

This has an obvious answer. Pures generally care what their peers think, for whatever reason. Extra combat levels has gained a negative connotation in Runescape.

[RayOxide]

Some pures actually train skills. They can train skills easier/better if they bothered to use like, what, 1m on 40 summoning?

 

 

 

I agree with Ross. Like 90% pures are mentally challenged.
