ZerkAtMeBro Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 I can't decide if I want to stay 45 Defence. Would 99 be better? Any point to staying 45? If neither of those, what Defence? Please reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being maxed or nearly maxed with 99 defence is pretty boring. You're fighting someone and all it is 0-0-0-164-0-0-0-540....and so on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Observer Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 It depends if you want to stay a pure or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZerkAtMeBro Posted October 24, 2011 Author Share Posted October 24, 2011 Well, I like being able to say "My Defence level is 45." BUT, I've never been a very skilled pker , more a quester or pvm'er I guess. I like 45 def, but I am starting to see the reason people max, more opportunities to do things in RS. Most zerkers can only Pk and skill. Not really made for Bandos, Nex, Kree'arra etc. I was just getting some feedback on what people would do if they were in my shoes. (I think that's how the saying goes) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I'm more of an all-rounder I guess you could say. If I feel like pking, I'll pk for maybe 30 minutes.I never used to pk so I never really got into it.

AHappySeeker Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 It's not like you can't PK as a maxed main. Go and max. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellac Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 If you would like to PvM and quest etc, perhaps you should try getting mid 70s-80s in defence? This way you have high enough defence to do most bosses without losing that advantage a pure would have by being lower defence. If you still aren't sure, write up a pros/cons list. Think about why you originally made the account and what would change if you trained defence up. Hope this helps! Thanks to Iglw for the amazing signature!

gspbeetle Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 99 requires dedication, try 60 first since dragon amour is quite affordable now and do provide quite a significant boost on defense bonus. Examine ChenGMT (level: 138) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doomster Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Defence for the equipment you can afford, or can afford to lose, since defence without equipment is very much a wasted stat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quyneax Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 You can gain defence in stages. 60 defence will get you dragon (defender mainly), 65 Bandos/third-age, 70 barrows, 75 dragonfire shield/spirit shields, 80 Nex gears, 85 hybrid gears (highest useful level in overworld), 90 promethium, 99 primal.
