Love the beta, although i do have a few ideas that could help this combat beta so much.
first of all i suggest that you change the npc's levels because they are just too overpowering, i was wearing full virtus and i had 99 mage and i struggled against orcs that used to be a much lower level than me in previous runescape. Have you ever considered that you have given npc's too much of a 'power-up' so to speak. I understand that you want to change the monster to have a fighting chance against the player, but perhaps you changed the monsters too much.
Second thing i need to mention is that the combat triangle is not too equal as you say it is, another problem i encountered is that the ranger i was fighting against absolutely destroyed me, despite the fact that im just a mager, it shouldn't have such a fighting chance against me. You need to consider tweaking the ranger class a little bit so that it isn't overpowered.
Another thing was that the people i was fighting with had no clue of what they was doing, they just clicked on any ability without a single thought and somehow they killed me, a guy that thought through all of their ability's for at least 10 minutes. You should consider making the ability's more adapted so the players are encouraged to make people think about the ability's they are using
I hope you take my advice in mind, i was trying to use all of this advice and explain it well enough so you can tweak it a little bit, that's what betas are for arent they? constructive criticism.
