Do overloads keep stats boosted at max for 5 minutes before "degrading"?

 

In other words, does drinking an overload keep all melees at 125 for 5 minutes then drop to 120 afterwards?

Nope

 

At max stats you will get a+ 26 boost. This boost "refreshes" every 15 seconds. So you can effectively brew without losing stats if you time it correctly. After the 5 minutes is up the entire boost is gone and you get refunded the 500 lp you lost when you first drank the dose.

They drop to their original levels.

It's not like nothing can reduce it - if a stat weakening occurs, the overload just restores it every 15? seconds I think?

Not 100% sure

Is this correct then?

 

*maxed player drinks ovl*

*all melees are 125/99*

*after 1 minute, all stats are 124/99* ect. for 5 minutes

*after 5 miutes, you are refunded 500 lp, all stats are 99/99*

 

I don't understand what this 15 second thing is. Does it only apply if say you are 125/99 and somehow you get drained, then in 15 seconds or less you will jump back up to 125? Don't know why I can't grasp my mind around this concept. Probably because I don't have ovls myself and they came out when I wasn't playing.

 

If they automatically drop to 99 again after 5 minutes then you need to be constantly drinking ovls (3/hr) to stay potted well?

More or less correct that for ya.

 

Every 15 seconds or so the overload boosts your stats some. So if you drink a brew, every 15 seconds it'll boost back to normal. It only boosts so much though, so you can't drink like 20 brews lol.

Your stats get boosted 26 levels.

Your stats will decrease at the normal rate. I.E. 1 level will fall at a time.

However, your stats get refreshed (Meaning, your stats get boosted 26 levels every 15 seconds until they are at the max boost. Base level + 26.)

 

Meaning, you could drink "x" amount of saradomin brew.

Your stats are now 54/99.

Every 15 seconds, your stats get boosted by 26.

Meaning, after 15 seconds your stats are now 80/99.

Another 15 seconds and stats are 106/99

 

Etc etc.

 

They don't automatically go back to your base level +26 after 15 seconds.

So basically the levels decrease just like normal extremes, the only difference is that for the first 5 minutes you get the restoring boost right? Then after 5 minutes you can repot and receive the restore benefits again correct?

After 5 minutes you no longer get the boost every 15 seconds and your stats go down to your base level(not 100% sure, but i'm 100% sure you will not have any boost over base stats after the 5 minutes is over).
