Please raise the magic defense to at least Bandos :)

They will.

Original message details are unavailable.
That's a reasonable change, when it had higher strength we gave it more weaknesses. Will raise improving the magic defence next week.

Mod Kieren mentioned this on reddit's version of this thread.
OSRS Mage Tank.


Believe magic to only be for support? Think again. It's just as valid of a Pking style as melee and range is.

Kodai Wand should go back to 5%. Ice Barrage is already way too powerful with the current boosts we have.
Dragon Thrown-axe and Sword seem useless. I'd just use Granite Maul and Dragon Scimitar instead.
I still think Kodai Robes should have much higher Defence bonuses, with lower Magic Accuracy. Right now they just powercreep Ahrims.

What happened with the idea of a tank prayer with negative Attack/Strength bonus?

Alright...new changes.

Elder Armor : Looks great. As much as I liked it having the higher strength bonus, it was probably for the best to actually reduce it. Would I have voted yes at the +5/6/3? Yeah, I would have, but it might be too much of an increase for right now with the attack buffs. Don't forget, guys, we have Primordial boots. Couple that with the full set of gear and we're looking at +15 to our attacks.

To put that into perspective, that's the slash attack difference between the Dragon Scimitar and the Abyssal Whip.


It really needs help in the magic defence area... at least make it even to Bandos, or maybe one point better. Don't nerf strength and keep it that low. Could also have it raise HP similar to Nex armor if the stat on it stays lower, but I'd rather have it just be increased.

Elder Maul : THANK YOU. I've used this thing quite extensively, on a Zerker, Barrow Pure, and Maxed accounts in Void, regular PK'ing gear, and max gear... it needed a bit of an increase.

Twisted Armor : These are fine as is, I think. Maybe more ranged strength on the Twisted to be on par with Void. We are talking a 33 defence/range level jump here. It should be the high level, degradable equivalent. Sadly, the only way to accurately do this is have it increase by percentage, not a set number.

Elder Wand : I'd say +15% magic strength. You're losing venom + melee stats, it should be a trade-off to match damage with the TSTOD.

Prayers : Rigour and Augury need a defence requirement. I don't typically PK at void range levels, but I know that with letting them have access to this, you're going to really give them a serious buff. Nope.

Thanks for removing the defence reqs of augury and rigour. Will allow voiders/zerkers to be able to compete against mains when hybridding.

Overall seems balanced greatly and look forward to the update :d
