The wildy continues to be destroyed..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If your opponent in the wild is wearing it and gets killed, they can run back and pick it up. I imagine that pretty soon, the only non-retrievable items PK'ers will be using will be their food and pots :roll:

i think thats a str ammy (t) infact im sure of it now that i think about it for more then one second.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and if you switch your DAXE to str training, ull hit 44, because if you hit a 43 with baxe and whip, then i know specifically that you can hit +1 harder with baxes str training attack then with a whip, i do it @ pc when im bored walk up to a shifter with my baxe and hit a 41(my whip max is 40)

to all of you fighter torso haters cause of low def boost here is my answer:

 

 

 

my own outfit i think its perfect :D

Using the plate, over time you're getting a XP boost. This is the only practical use of the plate; in any other case I'd rather use rune or Barrows. I train 60K an hour, it lets me hit 3% more, so that should be 1.8K xp extra per hour. That's roughly 1/30th an hour saved per hour of training. Assuming it takes 3 hours to get the thing, that would mean you would have to train 90 hours for the strength bonus to pay off. In addition you're being hit a lot more, as your defense is decreased 40-60. Which means you'd have to take in account food-restocking (you're not using Guthans) time and cost.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Diagnosis: Waste of time

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The fighter torso really doesn't lower your total defence by all that much. If people are willing to sacrifice the defence of their shield for a defender they I can't see why you wouldn't for this armour.

Torso is -60 -35 -60 compared to Torag. You gain +4 strength.

 

 

 

Def is -30 -30 -30 compared to Dragon Shield. You gain +20 +20 +20 ATTACK. +5 STRENGTH. I would exchange 3 defense points for 2 attack points anyday, but NOT for the +5 strength. The attack points rae the only reason why i use defender.

In my personal opinion its a bit of a waste to use torags all the time. With rune/dragon you should be fine against anything that doesn't hit exceptional hard. Unless you are of a lower level of course. Although this is just fom my own personal experience. I think that lot of people would give up the def for the str bonus.

This, like every other update Jagex makes, can be good, or bad. In my opinion, RuneScape is taking a step in the direction of other mmo's, with these new armor types. Jagex should be a little more original, and to be honest, I'm a bit disappointed with this update.

I tell the truth even when I lie.

+30-+60 is quite substantial def bonus. I see a difference even when training on Bandits, Level ~58

That strength bonus isn't very high. I can get nearly that high without a lot of expensive/hard to get stuff. It's called a Dragon Halberd.

So is it possible to die with the fighter torso in Edge, Tele back and pick it up like fire capes?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Would appreciate an answer from someone that has tried it personally.

def > offense IMO

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[sorry edited] :P :D

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

its not good to pk with them, since you can lose them and its a pain to get.

you may be rite, for a long fight, but for a fight without food such as a duel arena fight, ive won ALOT of fights against people wearing full dharoks when i told them i wouldnt wear a plate or leg armor.

I heard you can pick it up when you die..so Edgeville pking has gone from :-

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Rune plates, Obby capes, Obby shield pk's

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

to :-

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Fire capes, Rune defenders, Fighter torso pk's...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lets go pk ourselves a Berserker helm and Strength amulet!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I was lookign through this post for someone to say that, thx jagex you made pk'in even less profitable :roll:
