"Safer" What it is and isn't

[Us Of A Hero]

Ok, so I often f2p pk on my lvl 50 pure. I notice that the word safer pops up ever where, and I really get annoyed when my opponent calls me one. To me, anyone who says the word "Safer" in a fight is a noob! If you are fighting someone you don't want to fight, don't fight them. If you are truly a good pker, you can get KO's no matter if your person is "Safing" or not, because at level 50+ your max hit is at least 2-4 points above what the max recovery is (Food) and all this going at the same speed!

So Basically, there are two kinds of pkers

-Those who believe their opponent should not eat until they get a hit on them where they are within their max hit range. These people believe that KO's are just one hit, not a series of high hits while their opponent was eating

- Those who believe that their opponent should eat when they are in KO range, and the best way to get a KO is a combinating of 1-2 high hits with a scimitar/bow and than 1 high hit with a 2h/Bax. I.E. Say your max hit is 16 with a Rune Scimitar, and 20 with a R2H. You are fighting a opponent and they currently have 22 hp, you hit a 16 (6hp) they quickly eat 1 lobster before you deal your next hit (18hp). Now that they have 18 hp they are within KOable range.

I myself always eat when I am in KOable range. I normally eat 1-2-3 lobs depending on how low my HP is, and how high their next hit was. However, my hp never rises above 35 in a fight.

Comments, thoughts? I'm tired of people calling me and other pkers "Safers" just because they don't know how to get KOs

 

[Yeaaaaah]

Lol, People calls your a safer when you heat 1 hp too.

Ya I know... I always tell them: Just Cus I Eat at 12 Hp Doesn't Mean I'm a safer... You have to earn KOS

Usually eating twice in a row above 10 hp is safing.
Triple eating is always safing.
Eating to half-full hp is safing.
Eating above your opponents max is safing.

ok, so if i have 10 hp, and I eat, I now have 22 hp... At one defence I almost always get hit for 4+ why would I not just eat another lob so I can at least attack 2-3x before eating again? Plus you can hit 22s at lvl 53-54... Safing shouldn't be measured by how much u eat but by when u eat... If i have 10 hp, eat two lobs (he hits a 5 and a 10 while i was eating, i now have 17 hp can i eat again? or just die?

 

[Mike¥]

all depends on ur level
i was talking from the standpoint of my lvl 49 pure
but on my level 62 pure eating at anything above 30 is safing
i dont really understand what you are trying to tell me
use lobs or swords
eat at the other person's max with a 2h
thats all u need to know

Who gives a shit if you safe or not? Earn your damn KOs.

 

[Xombi]

If you can manage to safe and still win, you earned my respect. It's nearly impossible to safe and ko someone. You spend more time eating than hitting.

Now, safing and running when out is pansy.

ha i just laugh wen some1 calls me a safer

Eat above 20 hp at your level your a safer, simple as that.

 

[mu-b]

Eat above 20 hp at your level your a safer, simple as that.

I don't eat unless I'm 10-15 hp, then I get right when they are about to hit so it doesn't effect me.

 

[lightzz]

In P2P, I usually try and stay over 25 hp, because I know that people can hit real hard. F2P, I try and stay over 15-20.

 

[MiM3]

Personally I'm level 55 and anything above 30HP is safing.

But of course I'm not a dildo and cry about every time it goes above;
I always eat above 30 when they are combo'ing.

 

[xwinx]

the defintion of safe is eating at half or slightly above hp.

 

[Loveable]

Eat when your at 10-15hp to stay safe, ._.

 

[Vlad]

I call someone a safer WHEN I'M IN MONK ROBES AND FIGHTING SOMEONE IN FULL RUNE AND THEY ARE EATING AT 75% HP WITH TELES IN THEIR INVEN.

 

[zaxxa]

Eat above 20 hp at your level your a safer, simple as that.

That is a load of porkies in my opinion.

In RSC, the whole idea was a pure was to hit so high that eating food became irrelevant, in essence, the K0 was born.

People use the word "safer" as an excuse. Even if someone eats to full hitpoints, if you have a high enough attack level, use a bit of prayer, you can lower their hp rapidly, otherwise just walk away. Safing is part of the game. A pure was designed to play the game in a certain manner to make it advantageous so as to kill the opponent. Therefore the old pures would concentrate on one form of combat, whether it was ranged, melee or magic. A pure was never made to moan of a game mechanic such as people eating. If you truly are a pure, then your character will be designed in such a manner as to overcome this problem.

To all those pkers who call others safers....FUCK YOU, YOU HYPOCRITES!
Your pking, so anything goes! Eating is not cheating, 'safing', noobish, etc.

BTW, why the fuck are people complaining about safing? Extra time spent eating meaning you get more time to attack. Thus if you hit them hard enough, they are basically going to die or use more food...

 

[qdagod]

idc about safing once i resh lik 18 or 20 hp i eat two lobs and get lik 5 hits at em and so on

 

[T4ank]

Usually eating twice in a row above 10 hp is safing.
Triple eating is always safing.
Eating to half-full hp is safing.
Eating above your opponents max is safing.

Eating above your opponents max is smart. I'd rather live than be called a safer.
