I was somewhat looking forward to the EOC, until I realized that I'm essentially forced to use a monsters weakness.
I can no longer melee monsters (I already blocked the polypore dungeon using 100 slayer points because I couldn't melee the monsters there) like I want to.
Technically I can still melee them, but at 2 mins a kill (on greater demons -_-) using slayer helm, berserker ring, fury, whip, dragon defender, super set and chivalry. WHILE using skills as soon as they are off CD - AND my current slayer task.
What are we supposed to do now if we don't want to swap to bolts/arrows or certain spells for each individual monster?
I just feel as if I've lost any choice I had with how I wanted to play, that I'm being told what to use because that's just what you use now against monster "x".
I'm sure I can find a certain monster to go and train melee on by just camping, but as you can imagine - this is almost impossible to get around with for slayer unless I permanently block certain monsters. Slayer was the main reason I was enjoying combat, traveling around killing all different types of monsters while also getting slayer XP and points; building towards fighting tougher slayer monsters in the future.
Is there anything in the near future to change this, or is it going to be a permanent part of the game with the EOC?
A mod response on the issue would be welcomed if at all possible, Thank you.
