    Switching styles in box stakes?

    Does this actually help? I started boxing the other day and noticed that I attack faster than the game seems to switch so I end up attacking on defensive a good chunk of the time..

    Should I just stick to Accurate or is it worth switching?

    Well if you've got a good connection then you should be able to switch I'm time, just getting the timing correctly.

    Ive tried doing that. It does seem that I win more when im switching but it could just be luck.

    I've done KickBox switching, and it seems to work fairly well. Boxing in general is pretty random though.

    I'm considering making a simple bot for this. Made a few personal scripts for rsbot. Couldn't be all that challenging.

    Rather then taking control of your 200m duel, I was thinking jad bot style - simply tells you when to switch. I'm pretty experienced at dueling

    In theory, it makes you 102 defence, 102 strength, and 99 attack.

    Considering that even a 99 99 99 can lose 5 times in a row to a 95 95 95, yes it raises your chances, but not by an incredible amount, and you still can and will get cleaned unless you get really really really lucky.

    But pretty much everyone does it now, so your still fighting 102 102 99 players just like yourself.

    What I do is, I use first attack style, if it hits, I keep using that style.
    If it misses, I switch.
    If that misses, I switch.
    Until I hit with whatever style, stay on it until miss. And repeat.

    Works for me. (sometimes I pull like 6 hit combos)

    Thanks for the replies, I was fun boxing my friend who is 90-90-90 (I'm 99-99-99) and I just used the accurate attack style for the entire duel and he beat around 1/3 of the time, I'm not sure if that's just horrible luck or what. I might try getting used to switching but from what I can tell I don't have a good connection in the main staking worlds as I usually lag until 2 or 1 on the countdown and almost never get first hit.

    It somehow feels like I'm doing better when I'm switching, but TBH, I really think its just random.

    It doesn't help at all, with maxed combat its just 50% chance of win/loss no matter what.
