Range 2h Guide

Recommended Posts

I would like to share with everyone my own guide for range 2hing

What is range 2hing?

it is the best pking style in my opinion.  It begins with a bow an arrow and a second hit on reaction. 

It is called range 2hing from rs where maple short bow to r2h was used to stack out and ko (F2P Grind)

This has been adapted to using any secondary weapon to stack hits together in a COMBO.

Range 2hing is much more effective than any other styles because eating on SpawnPK is instant and easy.

I haven't included blowpipe as a weapon for range as I dont like the ticking between specing it is to slow.

Weapons to use as a secondary are endless these are just some examples.

Part 2   Hitpoint Reading

You need to know when to attacc you want to kill someone.

Say they have 80 hp

You MSB a 25 then you need a 55 AGS spec to ko.

Part 3   Prayer

Smite 

Pros

  • Rigour
  • e9iImqQyRwuGoWV_MOeAfA.png

Cons

  • Expensive to unlock
  • Often have to teleport without soulsplit heal during a fight you are out damaged
  • Way infrequent hits with piety vs turmoil

Soulsplit

Pros

  • Soulsplit
  • r5UApxp-QhKFK60Xlf1dvg.png my setup
  • Can reduce opponents defense level making it easier to hit
  • Turmoil OP

Cons

  • No one likes a leecher

Part 4   Vengance

Comboing is one step in the right direction, you can dramatically increase the likeliness of a kill with a well timed veng.

I like to remember it as 4,5,3    F4 - Veng F5 Spec and F3 turmoil.
