It boosts your defense by 25%, not ranged defense. Which, depending on how the range/mage defense calculations work, I can't remember, will give a 17.5% range defense bonus or a 7.5% range defense bonus. (I can't remember if Ranged defense is calculated with 70% range level and 30% defense or vise versa?)

Pretty sure melee/range def just depends on your def level. Squab unleashes Megiddo! Completed all quests and hard diaries. 75+ Skiller.

October 14, 201015 yr i'm 99% positive it's only mage. because I don't find it any easier/harder to hit someone with range if their level is lower or higher. And if that were the case, how the hell are we able to hit K'ree ara? Fisher/Woodcut------Me-----Miner/crafter----Stabber----Leecher ^Golvellius must be so proud^
October 14, 201015 yr It just means 20% to your range level, and 25% to your defence lvl,dont overthink it lol.

It's only magic, not ranged, and to reiterate what others have already said, it boosts your defense level; there is no ranged defense (other than armor).
October 14, 201015 yr Normal defence affects both magic, melee and ranging. Magic level has nothing to do with ranged or melee, but it has to do with magic.Magic defence = 70% magic level, 30% defence level.Melee defence 100% defence levelRanging defence = 100% defence level(i.e. only looking at levels, obviously)

The in-game "logic" behind it is thus: Defence level is how well you can dodge, evade and otherwise resist physical damage. eg a weapon stabbing into you or an arrow hitting you. (they do after all ultimately both rely on a bit of metal doing physical damage to you)Magic defence is taken mostly from mage level because magic uses magical energy to damage. The better you control such energy, the better you can resist it. Also it isn't primarily physical damage; beyond the relatively weak impact of energy upon you its damage comes from the energy being released.

I mean, this assessment is very likely true in principle(although there might be small components added in melee/range defense aswell that we don't know about), but the number just seems to be thrown out there. I'd like to see the proof that it isn't, for example, 100% magic defense+ 50% defense level, adding to about the same proportions, but not being limited to just 100% total(of which there is no proof).

October 14, 201015 yr I'm pretty sure jagex told us how magic defense works somewhere, can't remember where, and I'm not going to look for it. Fisher/Woodcut------Me-----Miner/crafter----Stabber----Leecher ^Golvellius must be so proud^
