Ok, ive not tried out the new bounty hunter, but i have a pure, which was designed for the low level crater on f2p (level 3-55), and i have heard this new bounty hunter has good rewards, so i would like to make my account a better pker, so help and advice would be much appreciated...

 

 

 

stats at the moment:

 

Combat: 55

 

Attack: 40

 

Defence: 1

 

Strength: 73

 

HitPoints: 73

 

Magic: 75

 

Range: 75

 

Prayer: 1

 

 

 

At the moment my tactics seem to be range/2h ko... maybe take a few bind spells as well and str pots.

 

 

 

I was thinking of perhaps getting 40 defence so that I could last longer in combat, and to add to my total level (956 =D> )

 

Also, prayer could come in useful for protection against different types of attack and for superstrength.

 

If i train these skills up, should i get perhaps a higher attack? and what about my strength, range and magic? should i get them higher? the likelihood is that my magic will be trained a lot anyway from all of the fist of guthix i play, so i can get range to match that, but what are your views? my aim is to make an effective pker, to get rewards and to have fun doing this and training it more.

 

 

 

cheers

I'd say that by the time you get to 80 str, that you should have 43 prayer. Personally, though, I wouldn't recommend getting 40 def just yet. 20 def would be nice, but it'd epic if you stayed 1 def :P

 

 

 

Personally, I'd say that you could get epic kills right now regardless. I have a friend who's something like... 40-78 I believe, and he's very successful just straight meleeing.

ok thanks. i think ill get strength to 80 and then train mage and range before prayer and defence.

 

 

 

but now i have another question :?

 

should i have a melee or range based combat level?

 

 

 

cheers

Well first off I'd recommend you to not bring bind spells into BH (or any PvP world for that matter), it's a waste of money and invent space because the effects only last a short while and don't outweigh the usefulness of other items you could bring in (i.e. lobs).

 

 

 

I definitely don't recommend you to get Defence or Prayer right now- it's still too early. When you're around 85+ in Strength and Range, then you should consider getting 40 Defence and 31/43 Prayer. The way you are now there are still pures that you can fight for rewards, you'll find that once you make the change to 40 Defence that you won't reap rewards as constantly as you did when you were a pure.

 

 

 

Continue raising your strength and range; raising magic is optional.

 

 

 

And to your other question, you're ultimately going to be melee based if you plan on getting 99 strength, so just focus on keeping your strength and range levels equal.

I agree with bongo for the most part.

 

 

 

However, if you plan to range-2h pk, then don't train att up, and make sure that 1.5(ranged) ~ att + str so your combat is range based. I'd personally prefer this, as I believe range > melee by far in f2p, in terms of ability. Melee, although capable of hitting well in the 20s, is too slow and doesn't hit well on armor. Range hits only mid 10s, but much faster than melee and practically ignores armor.

 

 

 

Most people will almost always be melee-based the moment they're past 90 combat though, simply because the necessary melee stats for decent k0s will trump even 99 range.

ok thanks :thumbup:

 

 

 

im going for 85 range and mage now before any defence or prayer, and then possibly as high a strength level as possible, whilst keeping a range based combat level. then i will bring in defence and prayer if you get what i mean.

 

thanks for all the help guys

MK, since you're going for overall fun, effectiveness, and training then you'll probably want to get 44 prayer, 40 or 65 def (trust me on 65 def..). If you do this, though, you will definitely want to get your range and strength up because you'll be gaining combat levels like nothing. Also, if this is your first pure and it's gonna be f2p I suggest stopping at certain defense levels along the way to see which one fits you best. I messed up my 1 def pure by getting 10 def, didnt likeit so i got 20, then 30, and this 40 and 44 (wanted to be ready for zerker pure) now my goal is to get 65 def on him and max out str, range, mage and get 70 prayer so he's up and ready to pk easily on members. That was how I discovered which pures I liked most. Plus, it's nice to have about 8 different hybrid/pure pker accounts :twss: . That way you can choose as you please without worrying about which levels are best.
