I like the video, but it did not answer my main question.

Are there any off-hand magic weapons? If there are not, what's a good shield to use with a one handed weapon if I want some defence abilities?

Lol.. Rae a perfect example of a hardcore wannabe J-Mod. The power has got to your head as you act as if you're some kinda offical Staff Member of Jagex... Trying way too hard... Lol... Funny thing is, if a actual Jagex Staff member didn't hide our posts as we WERE on topic and mentioned our Youtube channels, then that means it was A-O-Kay to do, and because he didn't Hide it, that means you're trying too hard and hid that to which didn't need to be hidden, or else he woulda been right on it beause shortly after we posted he had posted so he saw them and didn't do a thing of it, power crazy Player Mods of Forums make me lol as they try too hard to act as if they're a actual Jagex Staff Member LOL.

Facepalm.

these video's are very informative and I thank you for that, but they're also very unrealistic, you've got mods in billions and billions worth of armor that give all the best stats, sure they're going to make this all look great, but what about the rest of the world? the ones without access to the top of the line items? (full virtus 268 mil)

in full Granodermic with infinity boots and barrows glovws the best i can get is a for critical is 5.9 and I'm guessing thats good cause i get the same from full bandos for melee and full armadyl for range.
but you all have 9.8 in all 3 styles.
How about some vids showing what its like to fight those same monsters in everyday armor like that? or lower for newer players? hmm?
send us all into battle with high expectations and end up dead, is that the goal lol?

ive noticed that mage armor has the most amout of tiers that have only degradeable armor avalible. batwing is about the highest tier of magic robes that dont degrade, the equivelent of rune armor in melee. thats f2p armor at tier 5! range and mele have dragon (tier 6), bandos and armadyil aromor that doesnt degrade (tier 7) mages have been rebalanced... whatever jagex, it may not be as much with runes, but unless you want to fight in f2p robes, the armor is now expensive to keep repaired.


you have also nerfed an*tiant magics way too much! blood spells are ysless, 5%, r u serious, that is like 50hp for a 1000 hit, basicly nothing now. rock that reduses their hit by 5%, if they hit 1000, it only redused to 950, that nothing. ice spells seam to be the only way to go now.... good work....

most of the mage abils suck too. detonate... you are killed by the end of the timer, and i have noticed it does not often hit, your opponat can simply run away from your blast radius. fire breath, y do we need to get in melee distance to use? at the very very least u caould make it so we can use 2 spaces away.


fix this please jagex. even this vid had some awkward moments when he was going over the bad abils. do u thnk that is saying something...?

What the **** are you talking about Jagex? Magic is literally RUINED!!

First of all, you made the spells super cheap. I am sure now that everyone in the whole wide Runescape would be casting the Ice Barrage, now that its worth around 480gp per cast.

Worst of all, Ancient Magicks is like ruined. Ice spells stun for like only 5 seconds as Venia had stated in Page 2. So theres really no point in wasting money on runes anymore, because everyone would rather use abilities instead.

I worked super hard for 90+ magic, and you made all my hardwork pointless.

I dont really care if EoC stays or not. Return the original powers to Magic Spells and the Runes used in it. You are pushing the game to ruins as time flies.

DIG your ears please Jagex, I would appreciate that.

New auto-cast system is terrible and the spellbook/ability interface is cluttered.

Remove the combat academy and/or sof tabs and move abilities to their own tab ffs.

Also lol 5 sec barrage freeze.
