July 17, 200916 yr They might as well just remove the protect item prayer now, it's useless.

July 17, 200916 yr So Jagex caved into the demands of players. Perhaps if we spam enough we can get partyhats re-released? I wouldn't quite call it caving it, just restoring a part of the game which was a indirect bystandard of this change. In all honesty, its better this way as everyone (except the 26kers) can benefit. People who like their high-class pking with godswords can enjoy this (with the risk of being pjed) and people who want to enjoy raw pking at its greatests can enjoy that. One big benefit of this update is, PJ'ers are likley to move to +1 worlds, rather than on the normal BH/PvP worlds. This keeps fighting even more fair imo. It does make PvP a little more complicated, but a small sacrafice as this update really gives the majority something they wanted. EDIT: Also, the combat triangle is very funny now. Mages/Rangers have the upperhand in +0 worlds and Melee has the upper hand in +1 worlds. A intresting type of balance, but good none the less! :thumbup: EDIT2: They might as well just remove the protect item prayer now, it's useless. Honestly don't understand why these worlds can't just allow you to use protect item (and auto-skull you), would make it worthwhile getting 25 prayer for protect item. As was stated on the other thread, people would abuse the protection item prayer to Farm EP risking esentially 0 gp. They would wear 3 expensive items and a cheap item like dragon boots, and turn prayer on when attacked to lose nothing, but able to gain EP otherwise. Auto-skulling and having protect item would only remove the 3 expensive items. They would just wear dragon boots and protect when attacked. Any sort of protection prayer like that and it will negate the whole reason they were making these changes.

Honestly don't understand why these worlds can't just allow you to use protect item (and auto-skull you), would make it worthwhile getting 25 prayer for protect item. Oh well, this is a good update anyway :thumbup: because protect item is still useful at corp beast, godwars solo or if you are going to die anyway (no food, poison, tele etc) and want to minimise losses. NOT everything applies to pking only, as so many people seem to think I'm gonna be walking down an alley in varrock, and walka is going to walk up to me in a trench coat and say "psst.. hey man, wanna buy some sara brew"walka92- retired with 99 in attack, strength, defence, health, magic, ranged, prayer and herblore and 137 combat. some day i may return to claim 138 combat, but alas, that time has not yet come
July 17, 200916 yr Alched all my brawlers yesterday, besides cant use agility ones since its only one these bounty worlds +1.
July 17, 200916 yr Alched all my brawlers yesterday, besides cant use agility ones since its only one these bounty worlds +1. Pretty foolish to have acted this way.

July 17, 200916 yr Alched all my brawlers yesterday, besides cant use agility ones since its only one these bounty worlds +1. Pretty foolish to have acted this way. Not really, I had 2 Smithing brawlers, which can easily be replaced with SC Tools, its only 20 Tools instead of 2 Brawlers without running risk of dieng. Agility Brawlers I got piled about 200k xp into them, Mining brawlers I had no use for. Thief ones I also had but the xp is quick enough in that. So not really foolish to me I'll take the 30k per brawler and be more than happy
July 17, 200916 yr Could you use brawlers until right before they break, and then alch them? Wouldn't you get great xp AND the 30k? ~It's Super Effective! (The Zaaps Blog)~My YouTube Channel, where you get to watch me go around and make a fool out of myself and all comp capersGuides:~Yeah I wrote them once~Suggestions:~Yeah I made those once~
July 17, 200916 yr Just bought 2 claws about 400k under max so if your gonna invest in claws buy now. Please Jagex don't make another update that makes them crash again :pray:
July 17, 200916 yr Could you use brawlers until right before they break, and then alch them? Wouldn't you get great xp AND the 30k? With smithing brawlers really couldnt be bothered to do that, and the other ones have no real use since I was already 99 in that skill. With the new item prayers, It's hard to go to a anvil in wildy without being piled and losing about 100k in bars, I'd rather save that 100k loss and smith normally, less xp but alot cheaper concidering deaths.
July 17, 200916 yr Now hopefully people will shut up but that's not gonna happen. Funny how people were dumping claws and buying range stuff and now people are doing the reverse.
July 17, 200916 yr trying to decide whether I should sell my other pair to buy an ags or hold on to them and wait for prices to rise
July 17, 200916 yr well, brunokiller is not unemployed now XD. This update doesn't afect me since I mH/Skill. [software Engineer] - [Ability Bar Suggestion] - [Gaming Enthusiast]
July 17, 200916 yr So Jagex announced this update, but didn't make it live? I take it this was to keep high end items from crashing too much. I don't stand why any meleer wouldn't use the +1 world unless they can't afford godswords. And because the majority of the pvp and bh worlds were either meleers, pjers, and 26kers...Jagex is most likely going to make another change to this. I say make it so that in order to gain ep, you're second most expensive item + additonal items must be > 75k

If you aren't risking 75k in the current system, you gain EP extremely slowly that it isn't worth the effort. ~It's Super Effective!

July 17, 200916 yr I am loving this update. Now I can use my sgs+dds without losing my sgs unless I pick up a zaros, and in a few weeks/days when I can afford an AGS, I can use it with my only risk being my Vesta top+bottom.

July 17, 200916 yr Well ok. I am just glad that I can actually Pk now without a 2m risk if using whip. I Pk for fun, but Pkin with D scimmy unless you have a stat hammer or VLS isn't fun. Too bad that you can't use agil brawlers still without losing them on death. [hide=Drops]Araxxor Eye x1 Leg pieces x2GWD: 5000 Addy bar Steam B Staff x3 Z Spear x6 Sara.

If you aren't risking 75k in the current system, you gain EP extremely slowly that it isn't worth the effort. pre-pro item update, you could just protect item when you were being pked, and still gain ep. Why instead of rendering the protect item prayer virtually useless, just leave it but claim you can't gain ep unless your 2nd through n items add up to >75k.

Perhaps if we spam enough we can get partyhats re-released? Pk'ers aren't that influential. Gravestones make Protect item useless in most PvM scenarios, yes it still has a couple of uses but there's no point having it in PvP worlds at all. I don't understand why Jagex didn't make it so instead of having it auto protect 1 item on these new worlds that instead you had to use the protect item spell. I'm not saying it's completely useless but very rarely does it make a huge difference (only thing I can really think of is soloing or if using a full barrows set). However it's main function always was PvP use
July 17, 200916 yr I'm laughing at all the idiots who alched their Brawlers yesterday hahaha. "He could climb to it, if he climbed alone, and once there he could suck on the pap of life, gulp down the incomparable milk of wonder."
July 17, 200916 yr YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS I can still make insane money from Tormented demons :D :D :D *goes camping*
