Combat Beta - Live!
Quick find code: 294-295-24-63825448
Overall, I enjoy the combat beta's changes. But with great power, comes great responsibility.
I've taken the liberty of running around runescape testing the PvM aspect of the combat beta. I can honestly say, I'm not impressed. Monsters that use to be levels upon levels above me and that would make me run through an entire inventory of food within half an hour are now 30+ levels less than me, and, though the fight is extended longer than it use to be, is overall too easy. The Mature Grotworms, for example, are probably the most competitve mob for me. I use my normal equipment to test how easy they would be in a realistic fight for me. I don't need any food, and keep in mind that that's with the bug that 3 or 4 matures are attacking me at once. I think the concept of the abilities and their power should be reevalutated. I spent a good while in the Duel Arena as well. I can honestly say that killing lvl 200's is A LOT easier than killing 170's and 180's (me being a lvl 152 in the beta).
besides all of that, the only other negative thing I can say about the beta besides the frequency of finding bugs is the fact that prayer and constitution no longer affect cb lvl (3 kudos for summoning not affecting cb anymore) and the fact that dungeoneering has been pretty much completely ruined using the beta version. I can't be sitting here with a sick a## combo killing lvl 200 players, then turning around and getting stuck in a room with a lvl 100 bat all because I don't have any armor (without armor in daemonheim, your health remains whatever your normal rs health is, so for me, 750, which means I can be killed in 3 hits, with or without my healing abilities). So so far, I'm liking the major changes that have been made, but the whole idea of using this kind of combat needs to be tweaked a good bit here and there. Good job though Jaggex
P.S. Please correct this whole 12 month membership problem. I came to this thread looking for opinions and all I saw were whinny brats -_-
