I'm well aware that it's not just about exp, obviously there are better drops to get, though I find that irrelevant as they didn't touch the drop rates (as far as I know) They only changed the exp rate

indeed they only did touch xp as that was the problem area.

but yes you say you want to reap the rewards of killing a harder foe. that is it. people arent doing solak/ zamy / telos for the xp :P

When people are capable of defeating those bosses, they don't need to worry about exp either =) which partially is my point. The exp grind from killing higher tier mobs has lost its meaning... why should only the drop be better and not the exp? Where's the sense in that... You've got your opinion though and I've got mine.

The new hit cap you talk about was pitched after the exp updates, read up on that. Thankfully though, that seems to be one thing that might save their new system to me. But for now I'll be hybernating.

My statements still remains, you have failed to convince me about that update being bad news, especially for new/returning players who wants to grind combat stats.

BTW your argument that your account is not your only account is terrible, unless you made a new account after the updates.

Let's start concluding with this.

I don't like the changes regardless, poorly made decision in my opinion especially since they in no ways seemed to have tested this. They are apparently in beta with this new combat system which is exactly how they should approach this previous problem, testing it first. If I'm the only one having issues then that's fine, I'm just saying that I'm out, probably won't return, depends on if this new combat system works out well. Jagex at least managed to demotivate me enough to make a complaint here.. that says something.

You have not been able to change my mind, to me it seems like everyone who is fine with this already is maxed out xD no shit you are fine with it, you're already maxed out ;) (prove me wrong by creating a new ironman account, regular accounts are just pay2win and if you disagree on that here's proof: arguing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KjtZGjI29Qc&t=313s .against that is just delusional and bootlicking)

then why does it matter what the xp drop is?

im not arguing. just stating facts.

did you make the account you are using now after the update? or was it before?

if it was before then why would it matter when i made mine?

then you seem to be under the impression that was my intent. it was not. maybe thats why you were a bit defensive / hostile / argumentative, instead of just having a light hearted discussion.

all i was doing was giving you further information. no intent in changing your mind. hell ive been on forums long enough to know majority of people if they have an opinion thats strong enough, nothing will change their mind :L. so its pointless even attempting it.

but as i said before do have fun with what you decide to do

Just wanted to chime in on the fact that when you are fighting something that has 1k hp, and you are consistently 1-shotting, vs something with say 10k hp, and you take 3 shots to kill, there is the matter of xp per effort you are gaining. For the creature with 1k hp, you are only getting xp for 1k hp per attack, and then you need to change targets... for the 10k hp creature, you are averaging 3.3k hp worth of xp per attack, and only need to change targets after that 3rd blow - much more economical to go after the stronger monster. Things may be looking down now, but I see a light at the end of the tunnel;
Do you think I should get off the tracks?
