Sadly, I doubt the Mods are even reading this. Jagex decided they had a "cool new idea", and forced it down our throats. They pretended to listen by offering changes to their original Beta, but they ignored the main complaint, that we didn't want this change at all. Melee weapons used to have more than one style. Imagine my horror learning my battle axe is now only a slash, and the crush is gone. That had been a better crush weapon than a mace before. And I could vary the styles used, so didn't need additional weapons for different types of foes. I hate the targeting weakness part. It's too much like Final Fantasy *, where you had to use the right type only. Got so sick of "that's a flier, let Wakka get it", and now RS is doing the same thing.
If I wanted to play WOW, I'd be there now, not on a cheap knock-off*****, you were unique. You were perfect the way you were. Why pull a New Coke with EOC? Do like Coke did, admit your mistake, and go back before you alienate your whole loyal public!

@@@@ WE ARE ALWAYS GOING TO HAVE COMPLANERS UPON EVERY MAJOR UPDATE ONLY BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE " LAZZZY" AND FAILING TO ACCEPT A NEW CHALLANGE!!!
EOC IS NOT WHAT DEFINES RUNESCAPE.
DISPITE THE FACT THAT ALL THE SPECIAL ATTACKS WERE REPLACED WITH ABILITIES, I BELIEVE EOC IS A PRETTY DARN AWSOME UPDATE.
JAGEX SHOULD STILL RUN AN OLD SERVER JUST LIKE THEY DID WITH "RS CLASSIC"
AND HAVE PLAYERS FLOW TO EOC SLOWLY RATHER THAN A QUICK SWITCH WITH NO OPTION. sry for the caps....

Don't fool yourself into thinking Jagex cares. They think this will bring over the WOW players, but all they will do is alienate those 200M existing players. Not a sound business decision for a game designed around repeat business in the form of memberships. This is more than an update, it is creating a completely different game, one far less social and more centered around Playstation-like button mashing and flashing big max hit numbers that have little significance but look high to player used to the older hp model. Try using abilities and chatting with a Slayer partner, and you'll see. They pretend momentum gives us back the old combat, but my rocktails still heal less than sharks, and my prayers don't become 100% during momentum, so no, it's not the same. Nice try, Jagex, now try actually giving us what kept players on your site instead of others.
