November 1, 201114 yr I know the stats of the (somewhat) new hybrid gears are comparable to nex gear such as torva and pernix. Even though I'll never have the gold to purchase any sort of nex gear, I would still like to know how the 2 compare and what one is better for minigaming in general. Hi if you're reading this you are amazing and I love you.Maybe they'll release a bugless update for April Fools. That'd sure be a joke[hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide][hide]Congrats, you reached the end!

November 1, 201114 yr Vanguard/bmage vs idiots. Nex gear/trickster vs people who know what they're doing.
November 1, 201114 yr Hybrid is basically like kamikaze gear. Nex gear is much better defensively, so in most cases the person with multiple Nex sets will win vs. hybrid. As for Vanguard, it's actually pretty shitty in most minigames because there's ALWAYS a mage who will wreck you. Trickster is good unless you get piled with melee. Battlemage is good unless someone uses their brain and decides to use ranged. I'm personally hellbent on getting hybrid because I really enjoy minigames, but I have no desire to MH for money right now, so nex gear isn't really viable for me. also, hi To put it bluntly, [bleep] off.
November 1, 201114 yr Nex gear really is better, the hp boost helps with stuff like bandages as well, making them heal more. Check it out, huge amount of effort has gone into this massive mod![hide=old sig][/hide]
November 1, 201114 yr As the above have said, it's damage-oriented. Versus players weaker than yourself, battle-mage with Storm of Armadyl will wreck them 15% faster, but Virtus is better versus strong opponents.

November 2, 201114 yr Depends on the minigame really. Soulwars you generally won't be fighting tactical geniuses that aim to take down the high level in hybrid/nex gear, and instead pick on weaker players. So the extra offense really helps here, especially if you're safely barraging and healing so much from the SS/blood that you don't need to worry about conventional healing.FoG you really want both. Hybrid for hunting, nex for hunted. Pretty self explanatory. Castle wars, as ahappyseeker crudley put it, against 'idiots' you'll be good in the hybrid gear. But against pro teams that will focus on your weakness, you'd be better off in nex gear. Tzhaar pits is the same as castle wars. Keep in mind that you get the % damage bonus per item, not for the full set, so you'll want hybrid boots and gloves anyway. And the helm for castlewars, as you get the bonus damage if you have a banked helm even though you can't wear it, and may find other parts interchangable with nex gear according to budget and finding a perfect balance for your (enemy's) play style.
