I don't mind momentum, because I like getting rewarded for doing work. As much as afkers want the pre-EoC monotony yet equal xp, I like how you can go faster through Slayer tasks if you really wants to put in the effort. Otherwise, you can just relax, talk with friends, and enjoy momentum doing most of the work for you, at a small speed cost. Also, I really like the update to defense- now, if I carry a shield, I don't need to bring food to most slayer tasks, letting me manage the drops better. So now I don't need ppots or food, for the most part, unless I'm using a 2her. Dual wielding? Just equip a shield for a few seconds, heal up, and switch back.
