What will happen to boxing?

[Jedi Mind Tricked]

Hey everyone,.

I'm thinking of coming back to RS to make some money with staking on a maxed acc
99, 99, 99 str att and def, 99 hp

i will just be box staking and I'm wondering what the fuck this confusing combat shit will do to box staking?

p.s when is it likely to get out of beta and into rs...?

cheers

Well i think it will probably still exist, but it won't be so much luck as involved before, will be skill also depending on which attacks you decide to choose.

It won't destroy it at all, will make it more skill based, it will be a bit more like risk fights in the wilderness i guess.

 

Nothing much changes except the fact that you can stun. It's still luck since missing one stun could make you lose the stake.

 

[TingBingBong]

Yeah but there are other attacks you could use or effects surely?

 

[Jedi Mind Tricked]

ehh what the fuck... would there be an option to turn off 'stun'?

what the hell is stun?

I was just about to post regarding EOC destroying staking.

I'm also interested, can someone please reply with experience box staking in the beta?

EDIT: mage boxing as well?

It will just mean that your now able to stun and have 2 or 3 defence cooldowns whilst boxing.

In other words. The 50/50 chance is gone and it's just like tingbingbong said more like risk fighting in the wildy.

this is discussed at LENGTH in the designated eoc/beta thread read the stickies and please take this there.
boxing takes like 10 mins in the beta atm try it out for yourselves before passing judgment.

There is an official combat rework thread for a reason - use it!
