Fight caves

[Saunamajuri]

Died at Jad not long ago. I have no problem with that, seeing as it was my first try, i did pretty good. What I have problem with, is the prayers.

 

I ran to the northeast corner, Jad spawns in the southwest corner. He attacks with magic. I protected it, I run closer and see him, he does range attack animation and I switch. About 2 seconds after i switched, rock falls on me and I get hit 38. He starts magic attack and I pray magic well before it hits, but still I freaking die!?

 

I mean, must I switch before he even attacks? Seems so. :thumbdown:

 

P.S i was not lagging at all. The game played at perfect pace.

 

P.P.S Add to that, this happened with ket-zeks also. Just as the attack sound ends, i switch prayer, and the projectile just comes to the vicinity. Still, it hits 30 on me. :|

There is a very specific time where if you turn on prayers after, you will be hit. You just turned on prayer too late each time.

Well i can admit that the first time he hit me, i accidentally pressed wrong prayer and quickly changed. But the second time i pressed it just as the attack animation was about to stop.

Yeah, the prayers have been extremely messed up ever since the RuneTek 5 update. Jagex just keeps claiming there's no issue there... :unsure:

Concerning the other fightcave monsters, you have to pray before they attack you.

Is RuneTek 5 also responsible for the tele tabs or was that intentional?

What's wrong with teleportation tablets? :blink: (haven't been a Member for months)

I pray before they spawn. And I only need one prayer.

Kind of off topic here but when I pray mage at Abby Specs the mage attack is WELL away from me when I activate my prayer but I still get hit.

 

I have come to the conclusion there is either extreme lag when you activate a prayer, your prayer kicks in after 1 round of combat, or if the attack is already on it's way you can't defend yourself from it.

Well, now im on my second attempt and have managed to pray the attacks that have been already launched. But I have noticed that when the creature is attacking, and you turn your prayer off when the attack is on its way, it does protect you still.

Damage in Runetek5 is determined before the animation starts, to stop prayer flashers I guess, but really they can just work on their timing. A week or two after jad was adjusted to start animations before starting the attack so you could still prayer switch at him, but it seems a bit buggy.

yes that was my problem which i hated sitting and ranging all that time and getting to jad and getting owned cuz of 1-3 second of a miss stake

it is like come on he is hard enough you dont have to be like that

i atleast spent over 10+m try for the firecape and finlly got it for myself

im so happy that i got it but all that time and money is just pure bs for something i think lol
