    Why do people think EOC will ruin pures?

    Everyone thinks that EOC will ruin pures.

    No it won't! This is a common misconception!

    Pures will be far from dead in the EoC. As it stands currently, most of the time pures will end up fighting other pures. In the EoC, defense gives an advantage now. If a pure fights another pure, neither of them will have that advantage so it will be a level playing field, like it is currently. Of course there will be some minor changes, such as the way you fight being revamped but pures fighting amongst themselves will still be very prominent in PvP.

    Also on a side note: People, stop trying to guess which accounts will work well in EoC! The Beta does not directly = EoC, there will be tweaks etc prior to merging it with RS so trying to guess which accounts will work is futile and may leave you with a useless account!

    Pures v Pures will be the same, but Pure v Main isn't a fair fight anymore with the new EoC system. A pure can have 99str and 1 def and be 101cmb, while a main can have 50 att/str/def/hp and still be 101cmb. I know which one would be the better one, as the defence would cause the damage from the pure to be a lot less, especially with the new absorption stuff.

    Yes but as you know most pures fight solely against other pures. With reference to the skills you pointed out, the pure would have 99 attack also as this would not affect his cb. 99 attack and 99 strength would most definitely have the advantage over the main however if the main had decent armour it would make the fight more fair, not give either side an advantage. I'm anticipating even more raging however with pures disliking mains as they can't kill them instantly or if they get close to doing so the main runs away.

    I think they lessened the amount of HP that armor gives you from 90% to 60%. More good news for Pures

    seriously people need to stop complaining about this stuff, its fine when a main is weaker then a pure but now that its the other way around people are gonna cry and rage? ppl need to fucking grow up and deal with it. Its just a game.

    It is not going to ruin pures for example a level 93 pure is weaker than 93 main but 93 pures stick to fighting other pures. People also think that they will be ruined because of the new combat levels.

    Honestly, I play no part in PvP it's not my cup of tea by any means but there were a few interesting points I noticed, especially pawnscape's. If you're going to quit Runescape because the combat style is getting shifted, then go right ahead nobody's stopping you. It's pointless for us to dive deep into a negative critical analysis over EoC before it's completely innovated and exposed.

    The combat triangle has been tweaked before. This is just another one, focusing on defence rather than the style itself.

    People may feel as though their pure is no longer useful, but it's not hard to change a pure into a zerker (which is still a pure) or turn a zerker into a main.

    You have no reason to quit your account unless it just sucks and you want a new one.

    Why not just wait and see if it's ruined before jumping to conclusions..

    Also each hp level adds 40 lp so maximum lp is around 4000 for armor. So pures got a buff. And I agree with you, pure fighting will be exactly the same.

    Have you paid any attention to recent beta developments? They raised base LP while lowering armour LP to make defense less overpowered.

    I had though the point of pures was to fight against mains with an advantage by being higher in more important states in lower in unimportant ones.

    Perhaps that was the intention but then everyone made pures themselves and they simply just fought against other pures. They are a favorite for hybriding on as with the 1 defence they cannot wear high armor so they just wear range/mage gear and melee when need be.

    This answer really pisses me off. It's painfully obvious you've not read any of my post or any of the other contributions people have made to the thread. :mad:

    Read above for pures ugh

    EOC is not going to ruin the game overall. Some people believe it will but in reality the flash update will attract more players than those old grizzly veterans who shrug away from change. Reality is, if the game didn't change it would die.

    I'll give my unbiased opinion on EOC (I've only played the beta for 5 minutes so I'm not that familiar with it).
    The EOC may take a little while to get accustomed to but it should make combat more interesting and require more skill of knowing when to use certain abilities etc instead of just being the fastest to switch to your special weapon etc. Also with the extra HP it simply means that the "rushers" that are so common will not exist anymore. Runescape currently could be played by a slightly trained monkey, it involves a click and then waiting a little while for the action to be finished FOR EVERY SKILL. Perhaps you oppose EOC as you prefer clicking and then watching blankly at the screen as you wait for your action to finish? No offense here, but you are a slightly trained monkey Spectralpr0. Perhaps worse then that actually considering the thoughtless way you scrolled to the bottom of this thread to mindlessly mutter "eoc gunna kill da game".
