guthan bug?

[tothishot]

ive noticed as of late that guthan ( the npc ) can regen hp off of 0's while i have prayer on?? Anyone else notice it? also did the new update debug it?

It's been there for ages, and i'm not sure if it's a bug or not.

[tothishot]

if its been there for ages i guess maybe its not a bug and players should also regen on 0's

Because he heals the damage he does to you, so if he does 18 damage to you and specials while you have protect from melee on it gets converted to a 0, but it still counts as stealing 18 hp. If he hits a 0 because of it bouncing of your armour and not prayer, then he deosn't get healed.

that mage no sence at all so what ur saying is prayer lets him regenerate?? thats kinda dumb

[Lord_K]

Guthan's (melee) set effect is visible and heals him for what he hits on you. For example if he hits you for 20 then he will also heal 20. He will heal through your prayer for the amount of hits that he would have hit on you if you weren't praying, so wear melee armor when you are maging him at all times. Guthan is the second least dangerous of the brothers

 

 

 

From the Rune Tips Barrows guide, I've had it happen to me, it makes sense and it happens whether it seems dumb to you or not.
