This all seems a bit too complex to comprehend to be honest. I love the dual wielding, I love the able to off-hand weapons. But the Combat Calculaton is a bit stupid..
Highest Level + Defence + 2 Means I'm like 191 right now, and could be 200 pretty soon. Compare that to before, where I'm a low 118. How will people sort our clan requirements now? Because no-one will know the difference between a 200 Maxed player, or a 200 player with 99 defence and 99 magic for example. I think it's lucky I read that Prayer/Summoning won't affect it anymore, that will save me a LOTTTT of money I was saving up! Thanks. It just seems a bit too much, abilities, the interfaces are a bit weird, the action bar means you've got even less space to move click on the actual screen. Like I said, it looks good there's just a few things I'm disappointed at. Be nice if someone got back to me on this at all

peace--i dont agree with the lower xp on monsters. if i want to get seeds and herbs by killing turoths or spectres then i should be able to. why should i be forced to buy these items and spend money which is not going to be easy to make anymore, when i can get them for free with good xp too. i should be allowed to train on cows if i want to lol. the lower xp does not fit with the training style of many people. in addition a good number of monsters are being made lower than they were before, and are hitting higher damage. a tortise knocked off 3000 of my hit points lol, took over 2 minutes to kill even with speciall attacks, and im a lvl 188, and i got 29xp. how else am i gonna get tortise shells for summoning-- buy them??? there goes the rs economy. i wish i could sit down with rs mods and actually talk to them to find out what they were thinking with this update, because for the life of me i cant figure it out-- sorry jagex im usually one of the people on these forums defending you, not this time.

Dude u nailed it :) i do not like the new combat system one bit. U don't know how many charms (summoinign) that I have tried so hard to get. Not only those but the ones I still have. Like u said, wasted time.

Most people are probably getting angry because they are overwhelmed with so much new stuff.
At level 3, you will slowly unlock the abilities as you level and you will adjust to them more naturally. However, in the beta, most people who are on the beta at least, aren't level 3. They are facing many new abilities which they are overwhelmed by and as unique to Runescape players, we hate change.
Remember the 10% refer a friend boost? Everyone got extremely angry about that and there were riots. Who cares now? No one? My point is, an update like this coming one takes time to adjust to. It is not something that is instantaneously awesome, it will take time to become awesome.

This game is going to collapse unless it gets new members to fill the 1000s of people leaving. What was once left of the runescape we know and loved is gone with this update. Everything changed in a bad way. The combat I thought would be fun and good is trash, clunky, too flashy and worthless.
This game now is a wow clone lite and will share the similar fate to those that tried to copy wow: Aion, Starwars:tor, rift, warhammer online. Hell there are games with better combat and didn't survive because the combat was the only unique thing. : Age of conan, dcuo.
If this patch goes live, I am guaranteeing you this game will flop. No one wants to play a wow clone game hence all the ones flopping. I guess I'll have to wait for darkfall online 2.0 or a good sandbox game and guild wars 2 along with planetside 2.
