I am a lvl 106
Range Tank
so...
What's the problem with Range ?

Range isnt that "Op" as you guys say, it's not fun anymore to go Pking... Why is that ? Because Void doesnt give that much Def Bonus

"But What about Range Tank Armour?"
What's the poing of pking if i risk more than my oponent? and tbh , Melee Pkers risk untradables most of the time that gives range def bonus too

"What about Armadyl C'Bow?"
It's pretty much a hard decision to make
1) Armadyl Cbow = Bad shield + No Spec Weapon
2) Rune Cbow = Good shield / Spec Weapon (Dark Bow)

"What About Dragon Bolts (e)?"
Dragon Bolts (e) are awesome, but ... What happens when your oponent drinks Antifire Potion Or got Dragonfire shield / Anti Dragon Shield as Shields?
There's no Spec. of the enchanted bolt then... becoming useless

Btw we're talking about Dark Bow... Why not adding more Spec. Weap. for range ? it became boring to use Dark Bow only, and let's be fair ... What's the point risking Dark Bow if your oponnent got a Dragon Dagger as Spec. Weap?

1x Spec + No shield
Vs.
4x Spec + Shield/Rune Defender

Looks good but we still need more mage and range equipment, the msb i isn't cutting it. You're increasing the accuracy of a melee weapon that can hit close to 150 damage instantly yet you are worried about giving range anything because of of the slow inaccurate weapon that can max a 98?

Should add something similar to morrigan's javelins or a javelin upgrade that we can use on current javelins to actually make them useful. Or rigour and augury. Or hand cannon.

I like some of these ideas, great work!

When reading about the granite maul, and how it could be buffed for high levelled accounts, maybe their can be an upgradeable version (or spikes to be added to the original granite maul) purchased from the bounty hunter reward shop in which makes the granite maul require a certain defence level to equip (about 50 defence in addition to the 50 attack sounds good to me, as this is the level requirement for granite and will also disallow Pures/Zerkers and open it up to be a new weapon choice for high-levelled accounts, although the requirement also may need to change). If needed, the special attack can be tweaked.

It also may need to be taken into account that accounts with 50 attack & defence with 80+ strength won't be able to abuse it's strength.

This is only an Idea and may be too overpowered, but I thought I might as well share it. Thanks for the blog!

I am really on board with all of these ideas, except the MSB. The tear and maul seem well-balanced, but the 50% special for MSB allows for many other new combos aside from back to back specs. I don't think anyone is seeing the possibilities. With an upgraded g-maul accuracy AND upgraded MSB accuracy, both taking 50% special... just no. Keep the 50% spec, no to upgraded accuracy.

Additionally, I think an EP system would be great to balance the amount of emblems coming into the game. Add the old EP system, but the only thing that you're gaining potential for is the chance of getting an emblem off of your target, since it isn't a 100% thing right now.

No dragon defender re-poll of course....

All this other dumb stuff to please the pures but a granite maul update that no mains are going to use when we have DH and AGS.

Voting no to everything wildy/pk/pure related from now on.

If anything make the dragon defender degradable like the rest of this garbage
