Kellatha 629 Posted June 4, 2018 Hey guys I saw a similar guide on RuneX that i'd like to import over here and make SPK's version of the BIS gear for each attack style including both PvP and PvM gear so that players can know what is the best gear in game for their respective styles.

Great guide anyways gj. Edited June 5, 2018 by despair Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Great guide anyways gj. Tested it out with AGS(or) and it did make a difference. Max hit went from 61-62 (viper to magma)with auto, spec stayed at 84 though. http://prntscr.com/jqyji8 Also i'd like to highlight that different attacks do change the damage. http://prntscr.com/jqyjw0 Slash and Smash both do 62 Auto in max melee, http://prntscr.com/jqykb0 Meanwhile Chop and Block do 60 damage.

Isnt it better to use viper then? Aint like 1 more max hit seals the deal over more accuracy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kellatha 629 Posted June 5, 2018 4 minutes ago, despair said: Isnt it better to use viper then? Aint like 1 more max hit seals the deal over more accuracy Maybe not on one hit weapons but weapons that hit based on variables like dragon claws, or rasi spec that scales off of max strength bonus and hit's amazingly high due to melee being weak to mage. That +1 could mean an extra 4 damage on dragon claws, double that for another 4(for the second spec). If you have vigour(i) you can spec a third team with another possible 4 damage, giving a 12 damage extra in the fight you would of not had without that extra +1 str. Minuscule damage boosts, but every little bit counts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lzerraptorz 47 Posted June 6, 2018 Not gonna lie i think you forgot about many items, also think you've completely ignored context when it comes to the PVP items, sure tbow looks the best stat wise, but no spec bar slow attacks makes it honestly useless compared to many other weapons, ballista is straight up garbage for a main hand similar to the ways mage is, too slow too inaccurate. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Y I P K U 57 Posted June 7, 2018 (edited) BIS has an objective meaning, it's only numbers, what the math itself actually proves. Usefulness is subjective and only has situation dependent relevancy. It's 100% about theory not practicality. I like hyperbole's, so this is my example: Would Torva+divine and any 1h be "BIS" for range because the defense\soak from divine and Torva would outweigh any range bonus received from Kharazi? No. It's about what can be proved. A real example: There's a trick to buffer the spec bar to do a NS insta, a specbar isn't needed for a 1tick. Needing one is subjective and relevant, even my answer is so. You can see what I'm getting at. When considering all "useful" factors (DPS, shields, leech mechanics, veng countering, swifts, and more) and after Zbow's nerf, it's max DPS being limited to less than 21.649 DPS (weird working formula, I would have to give 2 different DPS' at different intervals, it wouldn't make very much sense) from 31.667~ DPS, the "best" PvP range weapon would be a spawnable weapon. Rune knifes. Tbow after it's formula fix (even though a Pvm wep) and balli are the two least "limited" weapons in-game. Spoiler http://services.runescape.com/m=forum/forums.ws?380,381,339,65846170 While the Twisted Bow has strong base stats, it can become stronger or weaker against opponents depending on their magic level or magic attack bonus. It has 124.75% damage scaling and 94.8% accuracy scaling against 99 magic. On a side note the only improvement I see would've been a 3rd option for range, which would've been a 3rd age bow. Max bonuses for big hits vs DPS is what most this guide uses and range used big hit vs bigger hit (still most DPS). Even though balli has the most theoretical DPS/ele c'bow has the highest average DPS, 3rd age bow probably has the most "constant" DPS Edited June 7, 2018 by Y I P K U Typo 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
