Rigour rune ranger?

[shlts broken]

hey guys i'm currently working on a rune ranger with 74 prayer for rigour (+20% range, +25% defence) and veng. this type of pvp account would hang around turmoil pures combat, how do you think it would fair against turmoilers?

i will begin to pvp once im 90 range, ill be around combat 80
here are the max hits for 90 range:
MSB: 241 (rune arrows) 264 (god arrows)
HC: 451
karils xbow: 253
D-bow rapid: 264-264 spec 396-396
d-bow accurate: 270-270 spec 405-405
m. jav special: 440 +5 +5 +5 +5 +5 +5 +5 +5 (8)
M. thrown axe special: 458
rune c bow (d bolts): 381

inb4 range is under-powered, i know it is but since the new arma spell i have a feeling jagex will add new range weapons like that dragon crossbow we were promised like a year ago.
so tell me what you think guys!
(will add max hits at 99 range if requested)

I think you would fair pretty well, I've seen videos of rigour rangers doing great.

Tbh I think tanks own, cheap and extremely effective. A lot of people underestimate it.

It would fair very well if it had venge. Tanks with 70 def usually uses rune armor, not Much use on getting 70 def as it would level you up too much.

Also I doubt a dragon crossbow is coming out, if it will, it will be stronger than a rune cow but weaker than a chaotic. You should also get a chaotic cbow while dunging for rigor.

Kaiba184 asks: Ok i really only got one question that has probably already been asked, but are you guys planning to introduce a dragon crossbow anytime soon?
Mod Mark: Yes, but not until we have rebalanced the combat triangle.

well im not focusing on how accurate the new bow will be, im thinking about the special attack (which better be damn good considering all the melee weapons along with magic armadyl spell)
and yeah ill eventually get a chaotic cross bow ^_^

CCB + Rigour + Dragon bolts (e) is amazing for pking. Never tried it at 40 defence tho cuz I prefer to have a eek while not skulling and a spirit shield while skulling.

Ah yes, didn't come across my mind that it would have a special. Just don't get your hopes up too high, all range items with special attacks aren't anywhere close to as good as melee. Javs and Morrigan can hit 500, and those cost a lot and are sometimes 1 use.

You going to make videos? I'd love to see a rune ranger with Rigor and CCB in action

yeah but id be a lower combat since 40 defence, and i like to time my venges as im used to a zerker.

keep in mind ill be around level 80 and be getting these kind of hits without void. and void is only 2 defence levels away. (great rushing potential)

hell yes. im working very diligently on it right now so it will be ready within a month if all goes well.

ill start at 89 range and 89 mage (ill pot for veng) at this point i will also have rigour and be around level 80-81 combat

im currently 50 dung and i will be leeching from 60-76 dung. (any ideas on cost?)

Leeching is usually more expensive than getting it trained by someone. 1 floor = 2-4M. Although it's faster, it's so much more expensive. Either get someone trusted to train it, someone trusted enough that wouldn't ruin your def, or learn to Dung yourself. Training Dungeoneering is pretty easy imo.

I actually have a guy who is leveling me really cheap right now, 74 prayer banked (currently doing alter runs) also range went from 73-80 today, if my dung leveler isn't on tomorrow that will be 90 probably tomorrow afternoon.
videos are on the way soon my friend :noworry:

why not get ammy of zealots for less tokens and 49 pray with rigour? also keep ure str and att as low a spossible to fuck with them turmoilers

 

[Environment_oG]

TBH Now I want to make one of these lol Only thing is, 381 with dbolts.. at 90 range AND rigour? Seems wrong as I've hit 381 at like 75 range on a pure lol.

Also, get a CCB and you'll just rape :l

If your going for a rigour account be sure to get a chaotic crossbow, also I would suggest getting ~70 defence since you will be using rigour (+20% range, +25% defence)
