    I hope Pures don't die because of this. I've been working on my Zerker for a good while now.

    I highly doubt they would kill off pures with this. Just think how many RS accounts are pures. They would piss off so many people if they did that... But then again, Jagex are known for pissing people off. lol

    I'm pissed. GF pures :'(

    my guess is that levels will be scaled on an exponential scale instead of a linear one, i.e. 10-20 strength will level less combats than 80-90 will.

    Explain more perhaps? levels scaled on exponential scale.. so getting 10-20 strength may bring 1 cmb level but 80-90 might bring 2? Not sure what you mean :confused:

    I hope this means that F2P rangers won't have to rely on melee to KO.

    The removal of special attacks is going to destroy the RS economy. What is in hold for the future of PVM? With no special attacks we aren't able to KO the bosses like we should be able to. Horrible update IMO.

    It would be nice if they left rs2 alone and made a whole new game with this combat system but I doubt that would happen.

    Special attacks aren't really gone. We get abilities now. For example in this thread, Jagex talks of how an AGS is considered a big weapon and claws a small weapon. This means that you can't combine the two like an ags spec then claws or so. Also, it'll be an ability like Flash I think (saw it somewhere can't remember). The RS economy is indeed fucked though...

    From what I bothered to read, this looks like a terrible idea for JaGeX. You can't just completely revamp a game and expect people to stay.

    I don't see this as a good idea at all.. People don't play rs over WoW because they want it to be exactly like WoW. They play for the type of game that it is.. Changing it won't keep old players, but seems like it'd MAYBE get new players.

    It's only logical to make a new game, to keep the old players, and then get the new players with the things that they are planning (on a new game).

    This ^. Sadly, the game has turned into a way to market things Jagex's way rather than listening to the people. Jagex doesn't care about the players like they should. They haven't taken the older player's who have actually played for years opinion into vote. They know that there's always going to be a thirteen year old twit to replace every player that leaves because of their "good" updates that they put into play :noworry: .

    I'm sure the pures will be fine. It depends though. If you're fighting pures with similar stats to you, it shouldn't really have a major effect. I'm hoping that they don't fuck pures over :( .

    Looks like I will be quitting Runescape again, It is such a shame I just came back to the game after like a year. Looks like the company that took over Jagex does not know what they are doing.

    They are not nerfing pures if anything it will help them, higher damage lower defense. The only thing brought against pures is hiding behind your levels so what now they will make you 5 levels higher for having 99 attack and 99 str with 1 defense ow no :eek: anyways there will still be plenty of pvp and pures.

    This is probably the biggest update that I'm actually excited for.

    Being a range/mage player but having to resort to melee in order to compete against high levels, I'm looking forward to the boost that range/mage will get in terms of damage/armor/training.

    The only thing I'm worried about is the spec bar. Hopefully, whatever they replace the spec bar with will be for good.

    I could totally see them giving the spec bar an ability that would randomly happen, you would have no control over when you're able to spec.

    Thus, they take away rushing/pjing.

    I have a feeling that they're trying to nerf rushing and pjing. That's a good point. My personal opinion is that rushing and pjing has gotten so bad that you literally have to stand in the wilderness with protect prayers on at all times. It's nothing like 06' pking :noworry: . I think it would be a good idea to make it to where you can only use your "ability" when you're already engaged in combat, thus killing off rushing and pjing.

    dragon claws, ags, korasi, dds, excaliburs, vls, statius warhammer, dragon mace, morrigan javs, etc...


    this is ludicrous! all going to be useless. what a sad day it will be for EVERYONE if Jagex decides to implement this. Im a veteran player and I dont think Id quit, but Id surely stop paying monthly for membership for one.
