Monster weakness...


Begbie

Recommended Posts

i haven't done any combat in months and it seems like things have changed several times since then.

 

how do i see the weakness of the monster i am about to attack?

 

there used to be a whole window, then it changed so the weakness and level appeared when i hovered my pointer over the monster, now nothing.

 

feel like i'm missing something obvious!

 

cheers,

It should be there when you hover over the monster, the icon to the left is the weaknesses.

 

A hammer = crush

Axe = slash

Sword = stab

Bow = arrow

x-bow = bolt

spear thing = thrown

white/blue/green/red 'fireball' = magic air/water/earth/fire

 

A bow sword and staff together = no weakness

The sword, bow and mage hat from prayers/skill icons mean generic melee, ranged, magic weakness with no sub type (only seen on players and ascension)

since rs3 it only shows when you are in combat with the target.

 

also if you use, say bolts vs z something weak to thrown you suffer only a small accuracy penalty. nothing very high

It wills till show up on hovering, I use it every day.

 

Possibly something in settings to do with tool tips; all I know is it IS there and it DOES show up on hovering and I haven't changed any settings to do with any monster info/tooltip stuff.

If you hide the display, then the only way to get it to s h ow is if you are in combat AND you hover. Otherwise, you can't see the weakness
