knight you say there is no 1 on 1 combat in a pvp game then i guess you havent been playing the same rs we all have because there has always been single and multi combat zones in rs and this new system where if we go to put our skills against other players we get piled by sad ppl who evidentally cant get a kill on their own skill is rediculous

The beta looks good just from the videos i see. Yes they are gonna have to balance the weapons a little bit more. But the one thing and i guess they had to do it because of the bigger hits is the hp boost its cool and all but is it necesary. The again i don't mind hitting 1000's looking foward to it because of my 90 strength :)

@I said mmos jagex is like an mmo most mmo's don't have solo pvp unless you are dueling. Otherwise your are watching all your sides because any amount of people can team up on your. For example wow, rom****, fw and many other mmos. If you want solo pvp go play eden eternal.

Everyone needs to remember that this is a TEST DRIVE. Do not rage...do not freak out.....please everyone just calm down. Now is not the time to panic and go postal. Goosfraba....goosfraba.......gooooooooooooosfraaaaaaabaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
As long as Jagex takes player suggestions seriously there should be no problems. For instance, many people are complaining about the xp you get from kills. If enough people agree on a single problem CHANGE IT.
If they do not fix the current issues with the current EOC system they are testing now then by all means feel free to rage to your stokes content.
Please please please Jagex I beg you for everyones sake take the testing player suggestions seriously, we will know what we want in this update seeing as we are the players.

The beta testers will have about 3 months to learn pvp and pvm. The rest of us will have 2 days a week to learn all of the changes to the game. Thanks Jagex for throwing us 6+ year vets to the side because we missed 1-2 weeks of membership.

I'd like to complain about the Halos:d
Before the rework Halos had 11 stab, 12 slash 10 crush 11 magic and -1 ranged defence
just seems unfair that the stat bonuses have been removed, not to mention i can't tell if the reduction to prayer drain has been removed
Is there a plan for Halos? or are they doomed to the corner of uselss items in my bank?

I truely think the new combat calculator should be absolutely disregarded. Now,was it not mentioned that itwas to show your true potential? Well, with just two 99 skills, one of which must be Defence, let's say u are a melee. YOu either have 99 Strength, or Attack. Now, if you choose not to train one of strength or attack you will have 99 in one, and 1 in the other. So you're ranked as 200 combat? Best of the Best? You'll go into battle and with your 1 Attack, you'll have no accuracy. Ok, so you have 99 Attack and 1 Strength? Good luck in hitting as high as a 50! And even that's generous! This means that a person with, oh say solid 85s in all combat skills is going to be at a 172 combat. I have a question. Who's going to win: the all 85s, or the two 99s? No one needs to answer. I just did.
Ok, so you're not a level 200 with 99 in two skills? Ok. Lets say Player 1 has 25 ATtack (his highest other skill than Defense) with 99 defence. He is a level 126. Now lets say Player 2 has 60 Attack (highest other than Defense) and 64 Defense. He is also a 126. Sure, don't get me wrong the 99 defence guy won't be hit easily, but he CAN't hit easily either. He has NO potential to win! Wasn't that the purpose of this new calculator? Potential?
One of my final arguments is this: Quests,minigames,you name it will be affected by this new calculator. t's affected.Take,once again,a guy with 99 in Defense and 99 in Strength. He is level 200. But with 1 Attack?He doesn't stand a single chance against Kamil, or Dessous from Desert Treasure,to name just one.Sure, your levels are going to be a ton higher than theirs, but your potential? Stick with Cook's Assistant. You have no chance. In other words, no POTENTIAL!!
Now:Final Argument: Dominion Tower. If you take someone with 99 in everything but Defense who goes there, they are Combat 113 as of now.With the new calc, they can't go there anymore because their combat dropped under 110:now it is 103. The DT just waved byebye.
