what is a good strength to attack ratio?

[bicycleboy]

i have always wondered which is better to have, str or att, mainly for pking

 

 

 

in the past i have always tried to have higher str by an average of 5 lvls

 

 

 

i believe this is a common wonder but i have never asked anyone

 

 

 

please let me know wat ur personal preferences

 

 

 

currently i have 73 str and 68 att \

i have 29 hits on this and no one has left a post

 

 

 

?????????????????????????????????????????????

 

 

 

can no one help?

[Iantiger]

I've always kept all my stats equal, but then again I'm no pker or dueler.

 

 

 

At the moment I'm 86 att, 85 str, 85 def. This principle has always served me well in general Runescaping, but I suppose if you pk regularly then you might want to think about lowering that defence.

For pking, having a higher str if prefered because that means you can hit harder at lower combat lvls, which can be very useful. The difference is up to you, with a larger differential making you more pureish, and having them the same making you less. Outside of pking, it doesn't really matter.

i'm not a pker, but i know that a lot of pkers/stakers like to have high str to try and work the combat levels in their favour. Personally, I am a fan of levelling all three equally, as they are all very useful, but that's just my preference.

[bicycleboy]

so should i get 70 att for a whip? #-o

[nightshade53]

Yes, whips own :)

[Auron333]

If you like pking and your around 90+ cb i suggest you keep your ATTACK...yes attack.....4-6 higher than your strength level.

 

 

 

It owns so badly :D
