You can throw down your numbers and facts without throwing them AT me. This is far from the only situation and it's not just you but the people you associate and are associated with as well. It's not your problem, it's everyone else who wishes to play the game in a way you don't like.

Confidence of research until proven otherwise =/= arrogance & ignorance.

Wait, so you're mad at me (and apparently some other people) for offering good advice on these forums? What? I could give less of a flying [bleep] how you decide to dg. I have a whole clan chat of people who are more than willing to learn, so you can be rest assured that my concern is with them, not you.

 

All I can do is correct someone. What they do from there is their problem.

You can correct people without doing it as you do, and yet I don't know if you're capable, as it seems being this way is so ingrained in your nature you don't realize how you're acting.

[Andy]

Being what way? Is this just turning into a personal attack on obt? what are you talking about gavati?

[Blutters]

Hey bud, that's not a good idea. If you give up your melee weapon for some fancy pants, you'll be leaving your teammates out in the cold when it comes to such creatures as -- . Unfortunately, the Hexhunter Bow isn't as accurate as it sounds, and although it may seem like there are many monsters it would work well against, this isn't usually the case. Also, being a bow, it has a finite amount of ammo, and I've found it runs out if you rely on it too much! Trust me, I have plenty of experience with it! ;)

Your attitude was totally negative and defensive as soon as someone corrected you (and it wasn't me). As far as I'm concerned, that's grounds for me to be more assertive. You should learn to take constructive criticism on your feet.

Once I get 100, I kind of wanted to try out using mage as my primary attack style, with my 2h as my backup for mage-resistant enemies and bosses. According to Grimy, a CCS with Surgebox does out DPS a Primal 2h if you have a high-level Blitzer ring, so assuming that a "fourth bind" does come out, what should I get if I am using a CCS as my third bind? I'd bind a blood necklace when/if I get one and go back to straight melee, but until then, I wanted to try out maging. Or is that a bad idea?

The Ancient actually tried it for awhile, but it's not very effective overall, especially in conjunction with a blood necklace. You'll be useless against some monsters and many bosses. I wouldn't recommend it at all.

[Bassy]

I can't wait to adjust my guide for this new spot.

 

Will probably bind a Blood Necklace or a Hexhunter when I finally find one, sticking with the plate for now. Will have to get 98 Ranged to use that bow though, but would be glad for a break. :mrgreen:

I can assure you that most people with knowledge have an attitude about misconceptions about that knowledge. Thus, you'll be advised to be competent and speak about what you know, and if you do interpret something based on logic or others knowledge, say so at the beginning and say that that may very well be false. Otherwise yeah, you'll get flamed as the stupid person you likely would be in that kind of situation. Getting defensive about it is likely the worst thing you can do as you aren't even arguing for anything but not calling you what you are.

Eh, okay then. So I guess I'll get a primal rapier and primal plate, and replace the plate with a blood necklace when I get one.

[Crossed_Body]

Imma bind a novite dagger and there is nothing you can do about it!

I get it...

[TheAncient]

Cat staff isn't bad. It's definitely not a viable weapon without a melee weapon. however it has good dps, saves prayer and food since it's so easy to lure with it

 

Runes are a huge issue with it

 

Don't use it with a neck, it makes the neck useless

Get gaunts until neck for dps.

Yeah, I am not giving up my 2h.

 

If I am using a Cat staff, what would be a good 4th bind, then, if not a neck?

IMO plate, sag body might be better because less mane penalty

 

My personal preferred binds in order of preference

Sag body 2h hex

Gaunt 2h neck

Plate 2h neck

Sag body 2h catstaff

[Dragonlordjl]

So if I were going maximum DPS with just my 2h, I'd use boots + gaunts before I get a necklace drop?

[ghjkl]

People are seriously underestimating the value of ccstaff.

Ancient I assumed when you used it you used berserker ring instead of blitzer/blazer?

Well with a t10 mage ring ccstaff and fire surge averages 273 damage per 3.6 seconds compared to like 228 with primal 2h (with t10 zerker) meaning around a 20% increase in pure dps, and from my experience mage is more accurate than melee on everything but mages themselves and forgotten rangers.

And of course there is less overkill loss and no need to run up.

It might be a hassle to make rune, but making 400 ess into fire runes only takes 40 game ticks or 24 seconds

[Dragonlordjl]

Is it still true that you can log out and in to replenish your surgebox?

[ghjkl]

Yes

[Blutters]

Oh, I didn't know that actually, thanks. More incentive to get one E.

[SirIzenhime]

I think I'll try out all 3 options (guants, rapier and staff)

See what I like.

Having a rapier would make me more diverse

Guantlets would go well with my B neck and battle axe

Staff would help mage of course, and magic has great dps.

Staff doesn't go great with necklace.
