I honestly believe he didn't absorb Bandos's power because he did not do it to gain strength, but Jagex I think decided that also so that the "Good" Gods wouldn't be so powerful and mess up the balance even more.

Even Zamorak who some still associate as a "bad guy" or evil was Tier 5 at one point and is the only one that has some form of beef with all of the other gods:

Zaros- the betrayal, CoM
Armadyl- Forinthry.
Seren- Mah disguise.
Saradomin- Same old story, BoL Supporter of
Saradomin
Armadyl

I still have no idea why Armadyl didn't bump up to t3 when he killed Bandos

Didn't the Jmods confirm that Armadyl refused to absorb Bandos's power? That he was interested in removing Bandos as a threat rather than increasing his own power?

In the BatB Q&A they alluded to the possibility that he might have denied power. Technically that's not confirmation, but it's pretty much accepted now.

Wow really. Anyone got a link to this? Would really be appreciated.

Ebeb was the god killed by Jododu Otoku on Bandos' home planet. Although she/he may not have been called Ebeb by the population at that time, you can refer to her/him as such.

Loarnab was killed by Zaros when Zaros first arrived on Gielinor. Loarnab ruled over the land that would become Senntisten so it is safe to assume Loarnab died around that area.

Btw Gielinor doesn't have a tier, infact, I think he isn't actually a "divine" being, and is instead powerful as one. But he doesn't have a tier as of yet.


You're right, my mistake.


Also again to the others on this thread, the Gods listed are ones to have had activity, are currently involved, or will soon be part of the 6th age. This list also excludes the elder Gods

I will again point out the lack of elder gods in this list as Mah died after Guthix and her sisters still live.

That may be so, but if it is Armadyl was the right character to do it with. He seems to really value hanging on to what's left of his mortality; Armadyl was elated to be brought down to mortality in Sliske's Endgame. I could see Armadyl refusing to ascend further out of fear that it'd make him "too distant from the people" as he said of Saradomin.

NO! Let him ascend... become a monster. He's already proven Bandos right, and he would make a great Big High Chicken God. He killed Bandos, perhaps he is our god now.

I can't wait to see Armadyl's "bad" side.

Nope. Armadyl should stick to his principles, We don't Need another Bandos, we do not Want another Bandos.

Every being has a bad side, even Armadyl. but he'll be a far cry from what you want him to be, which I assume is to slowly follow in Bandos's footsteps.

Still not getting the discussion on whether Armadyl turned down power or not. At what point did Armadyl ever have the chance to obtain power? He didn't kill Bandos, he sent his followers to kill Bandos. If anyone should be gaining Bandos' power it should be his followers or Vorago (since it was an anima powered weapon).

Trying to figure out why Armadyl didn't gain power is like trying to figure out why Zemourgal didn't ascend from Zaros' defeat. Runescape doesn't need a hero...it needs a villain. An all encompassing force of evil that will remain ever-threatening and use chaos to make the peoples of Gielinor tolerate each other, grow strong together, and fight side by side against this evil. I am that villain.
