Magic is overpowered

[Sir_Kurity]

Magic can combo and does have ko potential now

 

Yes, it has KO potential now. Is that a bad thing?

 

Dbow is a luck thing and dbolts < antifire or dfs

 

Mage combos are also a luck thing. And yes, d bolts do get owned by antifires, but you always have other options (d bolts may as well be welfare, you cant expect much from it)

[Squisher_33]

it was my understanding that magic could no longer stack like it used to, i remember there where blitz barrage combos that stacked but nto anymore

 

someone post a pic of stacked mage and ill say its overpowered

 

also hand cannon can stack 1120+ damage

The very slowest and very fastest spell could still stack I from what I heard.. Though the "triple stacks" are impossible. Also they said it could only stack if also the first attack was launched at exactly the right point in time (thus depending a lot on luck)

[Sir_Kurity]

I'm pretty sure ice blitz + blood burst stacked.

Spell stacking has been removed for months by now.

Magic is not overpowered. To be an effective mage, you have to risk far more than a warrior or ranger. That balances out their new powers.

Far out, really?

 

Why the hell are people complaining about mage being overpowered then, it still has very little KO potential because of the removal of spell stacking, with its only redeeming feature being cool effects like freezing.

Yeah spell stacking has been gone for a while I heard too. It would be interesting to see some type of magic KO opportunity. Although they do not have a KO, magic can deal some heavy damage with damage increasers, overtime... :mellow:

yes, mage needs DoT spells and much more variety in effects as well as some form of rune pouch, that would make it balanced.

 

Also, howbadisbad youve probably disagreed with every decent pker on these forums now, admit it you're wrong.

The OP is obviously a PVP genius. :rolleyes:

This. We need DoT spells, outside poison, something like the mor. Jav special attack.

only if it broke cc like dots break fear

 

imagine entangling someone, tbing them, dotting them up then waiting out of range until its time to re-tangle and dot

Well I'm guessing any DoT spells would be either a new ancient spell, or part of a new spellbook.

[Kata_Phfract__the_slayer]

ass i see it, there is no "x class is over powered" or "y class is under powered"

 

all classes are over powered and under powered in some ways, but by how much is what one should talk about.

You make a good point. Just because magic hasn't been giving a KO tool yet, they have things such as freezing opponents. What's the point of having D Claws if you can't even get to your opponent. Yeah they can protect magic, but that only works so much, just as protect melee does versus the claws.

the funny part is if we suggest it to jagex they'll be like MAGIC HAZ POISINS AND MORRIGANS JAVS NOW WE MAKE NEW SPEAR WITH OVER 9000 ATTACK AND STRENGTH BONUSES AND a spec that hits 1000 EVERY TIME 10% OF SPEC BAR!@!#

'each spec consumes 1 set of climbing boots per use'

In other news: Ghostly Robes now alch for 100k. Now, you may only have 1 set at a time. Suckers, I got 10000 sets yesterday.MMG was here

 

OT: Magic needs to utilize the special bar better. Before SoL, the special bar did not even appear on staves. The SoL's special was a joke. It increased defense for a short period of time. Unfortunately defense does not give KO potential. Magic needs an AGS equivilant of some sort that allows a spell to deal extra damage.

If magic was given raw KO potential they would have to put it on a spellbook with no binds or else that would just be way too godly.

That had better come with some defensive spells or armor.

Being on that spellbook should get you armor that has the highest melee def then since magic is suposed to > melee

Or maybe add some other variable: run speed!

 

This would allow for kiting, which actually IS the advantage of using ranged skills.. Then kiting naturally becomes better vs melee (yet not so much vs range, if the initial range of the mage is lower than a ranger he doesn't have advantage of his faster run speed)

I've always thought run speed would be interesting, and make agility worth it. With resting the stamina boost is worth nothing.
