Zomoor Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Aight so i kind of thought of something, would curses be less of value now? Because when wildy returns you wont be able to smite your enemy, and thats the best part of pking is smiting the valuable items. I want to know your guys feedback. In my opinion i would rather smite then hit 30 lifepoints higher Rushing | Pking Commentarys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

green9090 Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Soul Split- If this curse is active when you are fighting another player, they will lose 1 Prayer point (and you will gain 10 life points) for every 50 points of damage you do to them. This curse drain effect isn't affected by your victim's protection prayers.

Zomoor Posted January 20, 2011 Author Share Posted January 20, 2011 Ya but smite still does alot more draining then ss Rushing | Pking Commentarys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
green9090 Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 The extra boost from turmoil will make you do more damage, draining more prayer. Smite is 1/40, soul split 1/50, so not really a big difference. I'd rather have the increased KO potential.

Bearded Phil Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Most people who really pvp a lot would take the option that would have them stay alive, smite is a last ditch effort to hurt whomever when you die. Dying isn't really the goal of a pvper. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Â Â I've been to the Crunch once...

Logdotzip Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 what the hell are you talking about, you don't lose prayer faster if you hit hard with soulsplit on, they do. There is no discussion here. Unless you are strictly range / mage hybriding with rigour and augury unlocked, curses will be better. and even if you are range / mage hybriding, curses are a very close second. my youtube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_Stingman Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Also dont forget that soulsplit does lose your prayer on how hard you hit so ..  Wait are you saying that your own prayer points drop based on what you hit, or your opponents? Because your opponent does...Also, if you have 95 prayer you will probably be hitting sufficiently high regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silmandra Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Also dont forget that soulsplit does lose your prayer on how hard you hit so .....wat Curses cause enemy to lose less prayer per damage but curses increase damage dealt with turmoil more then piety. So it's 50 per prayer lost but still your max is +30 more so its similar. Curses own obviously.

Either way though Soul splits ability to heal some of what you hit makes it a better choice than Smite's pure prayer drainage.Well, it depends on the situation. Say you've got a skulled one-itemer with claws in the middle of the wild and you're trying to tease him out with ice magic and prayer drainage to get the claws. At that point, the healing is completely useless because you're not taking damage, and augury + smite would be a much better option. If you're meleeing though, the extra damage from turmoil alone closes the gap between the prayer drain rates significantly and makes it easier to actually get the kill, so even though smite would be better than soul split (slightly), soul split + turmoil is still better than smite + piety.

Quyneax Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Leech magic, defence, run energy, special energy, attack, strength and soul split > augury and smite even in that situation :P.

@Dan3HitU Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 I think they should change the drain-rates for Curses if I'm quite honest, they offer much better bonuses for the same drain-rates, they should drain faster because of the added bonuses.

They deserve to be better, because prayer keeps giving combat levels up to 99 but stops being useful at 70 on the old book.
