My friends just hit with 18 at 91 Range, unpotted with a normal crossbow...so that's like.

 

 

 

Addy = 19? Rune = 20? @ 91 Range Unpotted

 

 

 

Add it up to 99, maybe 23/24 unpotted @ 91 range? Now add the new bows, that's maybe 26/27? Or maybe higher + then try runite bolts?

 

 

 

*..? Rofl. OH wait, then POT, jesus, 30+ That can't be real...

 

 

 

This update is BUFF man.

 

 

 

Give you 3 days 'till jagex nerfs it.

 

 

 

Why? Rangers can finally hit high too.

 

 

 

Exactly. Melees can hit 30+s potted with whip, an incredibly common weapon, rangers can now do the same, with hard to get bolts.

How will this affect fighting Jad?
I'm intrested too, as i'm already in my head with debts there is no way I can switch from cbows but I'd hate for it to be easier now that i'm getting mine tonight (hopefully?)

 

 

 

 

 

its already easy. :shame:

 

 

 

 

 

this will just make firecapes super common, instead of one in few.

Of course being level 110 makes most things "easy".

 

 

 

I really hope it doesn't..

30+ with the speed of rapid is, a bit too much.

Most people safe when people dds, and it has 4 specs.

 

 

 

No one complains? Go read the official forums.

 

 

 

I'm not complaining or anything, just from the point of view of being hit constant 25 - 30+'s is not really ideal for mages.

I wasn't interested in that, I just want to know if this would grant new and perhaps easier tactics for beating Jad. I'm not a specialist, so I was wondering if someone had thoughts about this.

 

 

 

then again, they mite make jad a little harder now with the bows? oh god, time to get my cape soon :ohnoes:

Range is already a strong wildy skill - mages get a skilling update and rangers get to hit 30+? I doubt even jagex would be that unfair. The max hit of the new x bows will be pretty similar to the c bow i should imagine.

I see new possibilities for high level range staking and a possible rise of crystal key and dragonstone prices. A CHANCE TO HIT YOUR OPPONENT WITH A FIREBREATH????! If those crossbows really hit that high, that can add up to like 60+ damage -in 1 hit. I hope they add some more useful agility shortcuts, instead of a shortcut away from a water obelisk -.- .

Retired

Plus I think the whole teenage girl thing will end soon (hopefully), because my girlfriend is absolutely in love with him(she is 18), and im beginning to feel threatened by his [Justin Bieber] dashing looks.

if you can only make 5 bolts out of 1 d stone...and the chance of hitting it is random like guthans for healing...then it will be a complete waste of time. Just dharoking will be much cheaper and easier.

hit 22 with Diamond (addy) :D

 

 

 

Frogmite hit 31 with Dragon (Rune)

 

 

 

When the special happens a thing apepars above the oponent, ENCHANTED BOLTS ARE NON TRADEABLE.

 

 

 

So he got the dbreath special and only hit a 31? :|

2 01 GMT, they are updating again, probably some little fixes. The new bows seem just the right power for rangers, dueto the lack of specials. The magic, hp, and pray drain are going to own the wildy, but just remember how freakishly expensive the ammo will be. I think we are looking at the 2nd generation Throwing Rings
