@Prince Dari: I will be honest, the previous combat system is just fine for the combat we already have in Runescape, but for more and better combat we will need something like EoC. EoC works fine with the current combat we have as well. We might even see new bosses taking advantage of the new combat system as early as december.

If you have not noticed, Runescape is still Runescape after EoC, not counting changes with abilities and the action bar. Real changes such as magic and range being actual styles rather than compliments of melee and additions to the combat system, prayers no longer being overpowered and balanced over every boss, and similar changes are mostly good ones.

@Xaxe: prot prayers still work 100% on jads, and the mage doggies (can't rememeber name) are rebalanced with the new prayer system in mind.

i find lame how people say that change is welcome and then say that canons make sly task fast, then what changed?so now we have to use canons and titans rather than use the right set up, wich is the pt on most sly situations?now, what i dislike on eoc is that weps lose the multitype dmg, also, how u build up the 100 for momentum if u lose bar each time u stop attacking? and, was there a balance on cannon?like, let's say, reduce the dmg or speed?, taking dmg from anything that attacks it? i think that canon would be less anoying if at least it stayed attacking 1 target in single cb areas, rather than have pep with that cheap "i hide behind and obstacle, and since i'm not under attack i can hog all other targets to me while other can't attack them since they are mine" i personally think canon should just be taken down, of course, many pep will complain about it, then i remem that the only reason people want it it's cause it's a cheap shot, and **t in the same way a weapon like gs or whip is strong and therefore a staple in many set ups, but actually a cheap shot, the rest of eoc like action commands is more or less, at least making some commands unique to some kinds of weps would be nice, like how spc's used to work but more widespread, after all, the point was to remove the concept of having the best set up and click fast to win, but that's also pointless if now is having the right set up and press quick key faster, and creating just 2 ways to fight in melee(u either go for 2h or dual) isn't exactly a "varied way" to fight, meanwhile, from what i've seen, magic and rng stayed the same, is about having the best set up and spamming ur action commands, and magic is sitll underwhelming, since there doesn't seem to be a good way to change ur spells, even putting them in action bar requires to keep on pressing rather than changing the autocasting option, and it also takes spc some action commands would, wich doesn't affects rng or melee since they only need what they wield

Hey Mod Zach (or any other Mod),

Though I love EOC, my negative critique would be that your weaknesses for enemies, though effective to different classes, hold more predominance than that of our skills that we've trained hard for.

For example, I'm level 99 in Attack, Strength, Defense, and rest of combat. I constantly find myself switching armor and weapons and that becomes tedious (it would help if you put in place "switching ****" to set up instead for faster skilling in tight places instead of having to click through our inventory) and what about those who trained hard for their 99's? It's seems insulting for players to hit relatively low or worse, progressively miss their target.

Please consider these thoughts, as we trust you can make RS more awesome,
(P.S: With EOC out does that mean faster uploads for updates or will it make future updates easier to create/implement for you guys?)

:)

Even though I addressed it to Mod Zach, don't hesitate to answer my questions (page 6, second post from the bottom), Mod Mike!

Thanks.

Edit: Or at least say: "We'd rather not answer those questions at this time :) "

Hello mod zach,

I don't know if you remember me but I spoke to you at the grand exchange the other day with some other people about the EoC while i commented on your green ele and rubber chicken.

Just wanted to comment and say all the best for tommorow as I probably won't be on till late. Hope everything turns out planned and all goes good.
