Sereg, I don't want to rub it in but I just feel like I need to. Like I posted on the last page:
"I hope I've updated you, but most of the points you try to make are still based on a very outdated perspective. Unless you actually do some floors with us again, theorizing is pretty pointless. It's been almost a year bud
"
Some of your 'suggestions' just scream "I have no practical experience!" and it means that I end up replying to them so that it doesn't become counterproductive to the efforts to have people understand eoc and all its implications, especially those who don't enjoy the changes (I'm among them btw).
On that note:
Micromanaging what players bring in-floor is not worth the effort. As long as they stick to the rules on binds and their uses, we'll be fine. There's no such thing anymore as a primal warrior without a surgebox pre-eoc.
Action bar switching is shift+#, with # ranging 1-5 for your bars. Very worth it.
Rings can quickswitch during combat now. Worth it.
Loadouts require a home teleport, not worth it.

Ring switching can be done in combat now, however I honestly neglect it much of the time. I keep it on desperado mostly, and switch to beserker when I am meleeing and think about it.
Beserker simply increases 2 handed weapon accuracy
Tactican does the same for 1 handed
Desperado increases your ranged lvl or the damage done. Can't remember which, but it is now easily the best ring.
Most of the others aren't worth mentioning except maybe one of the magic rings, but I don't really know about them or use them.
Also hometeleporting is really really annoying. You click to home tele and 5 seconds later the action is stopped. Because it takes about 5 seconds of no combat to make your character shift from combat ready to being out of combat. Your adrenaline bar starts draining when this happens. But it interrupts using the hometeleport so you are literally forced to wait 5 seconds on top of waiting for your character to do the animation to hometele. It is no where near practical to base to switch loadout* except under circumstances where you are already at base. It's something that is at the least not to be relied upon.
Also it should be noted that while magic is usually better than anything else for killing mage weak enemies...you can just 2h smash your way through them with relative ease. They can be a little slow, but when you are maging it can be really frustrating for 3 melee/range hybrids to neglect the rangers and books in the room, and hulk smash the primal warriors, brutes, skeletal warriors, etc; to death before you can get your autocast going.
Also there are elemental weaknesses to some monsters. Fire, water, air, or earth; being weak to the respective surge spells. You can basically ignore that
Jagex made it near impossible to bother switching between surge spells.
