I'm sorry but this update is not what I was hoping for, I like the fact we can dual wield weapons and stuff. But Some items I paid for such as. the Zamorian Spear, I can't wield it no more until I reach to lvl75 which is not fair for people who lose their armor an weapons due to the new combat lvl system, But other then that, I guess it's a new way for me to learn how to play the game. I just hope you do something to the fact of combat lvl system. I also wonder if you lvl up in the beta do we get to keep that lvl up, item we made an item drops... This is a fact I really want to be solved n to be answered as well.... Drop items, made items an skilling lvl do we get to keep in the game???

This update doesn't really live up to the hype it's been getting, I don't really understand the need for a change in the way the combat levels are calculated, especially since some weapons have changed the levels required. I also find the new ability book layout to be confusing, especially in the mage section, there's too many moves / spells to have in the layout that you're now using. I think that the original spells should be left in the same layout / spells book they were before, and the new mage abilities should be in the ability section, it's less confusing. I'll have more comments to come on the game

At first when I play the Beta I thought it was COMPLICATED as well. That was until I played it.
I don't even play Runescape anymore, and its six years prior.
Jagex Immediantely allowed me to join the Beta once the sign-ups began, for reasons I will not tell you.
------------
The controls on the beta seem very easy once you figured out how to play the Beta of course.
Every Update Jagex adds to add more complication to the game complexxed me (except quests, unsure why that complexxes people), but over a hour or so.. I seem to understand how it operates and how it works. This is someone who does not play Runescape at all and you're telling me it is complicated.
I however have extreme experience with Runescape and a huge memory span of the Runescapian history and most of the tricks and methods that most players would not do because they seem stuck in their little box. Once you come out of the box you will see more than you can see . . . but then let us say we're inside a net which has a cage over the net itself. I will let you learn how to escape the net and then you could help me find out how to escape the cage itself.
All I want for Jagex to add is Character Persona Stances, a fair balance for Pures, and of course using Dual 2h Dragon Blades or a 2h Dragon Sword with a Dragon Claw X]
(Character Persona Stance)
The Crazed but Mild - The Character seems to be calm for a few seconds, however he seems to be very complexxed of the situation, overtime he grows crazed and begins to laugh in agony, he quickly begins to bang his head and fall to the ground, he slow gets back up acting normal.
Agility, Strength, and Attack = Dual 2h Dragon Blades or 2h Dragon Sword with a Dragon Claw

I think the Clan cloak should still have a turtle neck.. I like that turtle neck X]
But I like the design of the Clan Cloak makes it more admiral.
I don't remember if Jagex removed the Skill-cape upside-down turtle neck however yes I think they should fix the Skill capes on their looks, because most of the skill capes don't have circles on their skill capes.
That is all I can say.

jagex, you need to rethink alot the things in this beta
1- there needs to be safe spotting
2- monsters cant have 2 attack styles especialy training monsters you would spend too much money on pray pots and food when monster hit threw pray anyway thats just too expensive
3- mabey put specs from weapons like ags, dark bow, sgs etc in their own ability tabs
4- monsters are alot harder to kill either make them easier or give them more possible exp to make up for it and/or make slayer require less kills
5-the whole game should not stay all multi..i hope thats just for the beta
there probably more things i havent heard about that need to be given back or taken away but i will find out later, it really looks like jagex did not put enough thought into this update everything i listed above are things runescape ABSOLUTLEY NEEDS no if and or buts
BUT! other than that the beta looks like it will be a great update AFTER you refine the aspects

Lol now that is a good question, why do I play .. ..
Well I have one more year left until I quit and then I can leave this curse.
---
Added to that, because of the Beta I am going to come back into the game once more and start playing once more. It'll promote Roleplaying and eventually Pures will be recognized in this Combat System one day once all the Pures join together on the forums and tell Jagex they need to add a special system for the Pures.
Since Jagex added change, we must have the system called 'Decisions'.
With decisions we will have the choice of choosing our destinies, the destinies of which of becoming a maxxed out player, a pure, a full-fledged skiller, etc.
With this said, Jagex will have to rework the weapon requirements for Pures, full-fledged skillers, etc.
