Bakriminel Bolts
"Mami Rimba (friend of Papa Mambo) has set up shop just outside Edgeville. She’s every bit as mad as Papa but has delved into some seriously dark mojo. She’s tapped into the power of the bloodwood tree, which grows only in places of bloodshed, such as the Wilderness, to craft a bolt that punishes mages. The bolts must be fired from a rune or chaotic crossbow, and they have powerful stats (125 ranged strength – with a Ranged requirement of 80). When used in PVP against those of a magical persuasion, they have additional benefits, including the ability to target specific areas of the body, with mighty special attacks, depending on whether you're aiming at the head, torso or legs!
To make these bolts, you must purchase bolt tips from Mami and head into one of the blood-soaked regions where a bloodwood tree can be found. Fletching of the bolts must be performed at the tree and will require 85 Woodcutting and 93 Fletching."
Glad to see Jagex is making steps to help even out the combat triangle with recent updates to mage (polypore, storm of armadyl, ect..) and now a new update to range. It sounds like a very cool piece of content for pvp, both in the wilderness and minigames like castleswars, so it'll be interesting to see how it works out.
I'm very curious for the added bonus against mages, how exactly is it going to work and how will the "aimed" special against specific armor slots work. Would it mean that if someone is bridding and is wearing a mystic top, you could aim for that and hit them for extra damage + more accurately? Also, the requirements of 85 woodcutting and 93 fletching may discourage some pkers, but I like how they are giving more purpose to some of the less useful skills in Runescape.
All in all, sounds like a great update, although I'm a little dissapointed since I'm in the procces of making a mage tank.
Thoughts?
