Defence was also useless / pointless.

Thats not true

Someone needs to find an old member of rscrevolution and get the formula. It was perfect, but also based around an x1 exp rate. 

I remember defense accounts were good, but not god, and it was possible to 3 hit someone 15 levels above you based on a lucky 3 hit. It had so much depth.

In my own personal opinion...

Defense is too strong now, I agree. Most agree. 60s mages will never die to a regular 60

99 1 99 wont win against pretty much anything with 40+ defense because you cant hit hard enough to keep up with their damage on your 1 def

In RSC there was a reason for doing all the hard training to make 1 defense chars and it was to be stronger for your combat level. Right now none of that matters because 1 def accounts don't hit anything anymore

At 99 att and str you should be able to hit 1-99 defense... But atm you rarely hit good even on 30 defense, so 1 def is pointless unless against another 1 def or teaming 5v1 def acc

I think formula needs defense lowered for sure. And if that doesn't work then bring back the old formula because it was more fun

I rather pk on my defence 90s vs 99 1 99 with a 50 procent chanse to win than pk 60 70 80 90 with 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 12 as hits

If theres a pker who has a mager friend anywhere from level 45 to 70 the pking dies coz theres really no point to pk. Thats just the truth.

This isn't really about def mages, the combat system is flawed massively since 40 30 88 will own 40 1 99 every single time.

Also 40 1 99 wearing full iron vs 40 1 99 in robes, iron wins 9/10. It shouldn't be this strong since both defs are 1, the difference is that big.

0 0 14 is a realistic hit on 1 def with full iron.

I've come to realize pking on my 60 1 deffer is useless, there are people who are 30 def and have full rune plate due to subbing down, they are literally un-kill able with 40 prayer.

I won't be pking on my 1 deffer until the combat system as changed, even full iron is o.p as fuck and those who spend time pking know.

Back to sitting on a boring def tank when ever i feel motivated to log in.

That's not true, 40 def is very hitable by a 80 1 90 etc,  but a 70 1 80 wont hit a 1 99 1

+1
I spent so much time making a 99 1 99 99 now I don't even log on it to pk anymore. The whole purpose of being 99 1 99  is to keep combat level low but still do serious damage whilst taking big hits. Truth is they don't do serious damage they just get effortlessly killed  by 40 deffers.

Ya, maybe you mis-understood, I'm talking about people with 30 def who are wearing full rune being level 60s..

Since def is op anyway they are un-killable

Noone wears full rune with 30 def idiot
