seriously, i'v said it thousand of times that why we need a way to kill somebody faster than it already is? first of all, in RSC you couldn't afford this kind of shit, yet you weren't organized enough to gather 5 nerds to use same spells on you. people also were worse PK'ers in general, casting timer might have also been slower and that's the reason it might have worked in the past but in 2017, when everyone knows how to PK, knows how to be organized and target certain person, why on earth we would want anybody hitting +15s with a spell meanwhile there's somebody meelee'ing you as well? even in F2P when this happens that it +5 people fighting on you, there's a chance you get 3hit and even an idea of even boosting it little bit more, so it would become even more easier to kill somebody is just plain ridiclous. in RS2 or RS3 there's a possibility to eat during the fight so THERE I'D UNDERSTAND THAT but in here? 99hp isn't that much in a team fight and if anything, i'd like to see flats F2P spells being nerfed little bit just for the sake of entertaiment A.K.A fights would last longer. we definitely don't need any faster fights, do we?

put some logic behind all these things for real, this should have never been implemented in the first place, yet we're still discussing whether it's good to have it or not.

+1. ^^^^^^^^

Cast timer here same as RSC tho I believe. I've said it a million times, pretty sure max hit comes from that silly update when some RS2 nub said let's make spells hit ''what it says they should in spell book'' for example, fire bolt 8, fire blast 12, fire wave 16, iban blast says 25, apparently at one time or another spells hit this, well we tried it here and fuck it was horrible with the combat formula, see video below (not the best example of how utterly shit it was but yeah. at the time, nobody even used Iban. I can't think of 1 person that used it in wild)... We're not saying get rid of iban completely, quest and get rewards sure I get it. Just do something about it already and see what happens

+1 nerf Iban or make it only usable up in 52 wild.. that way it's out of f2p areas and if people still want to use it they can go fight each other with their gay spells


team australia

F2p wild 24/7 below the fence please.

BILLY. You promissed ME in person to talk this over with n0m and get back to me, because u completly agreed with me. that is like 2-3 months ago now ?

Fair enough, here are the details from my conversation with n0m about Iban Blast. We discussed five possibilities:
1) Nerf accuracy
2) Nerf strength
3) Nerf cape teleport
4) Make recharge cost gp
5) Make it a gspell day spell

After n0m explained the formula for iban blast and realized it was basically ignoring defense, and weighing the pros and cons of the above options, we agreed on the following changes:

-Nerf Iban Blast accuracy
-Make recharge cost gp
-Make it a gspell

It would still be the high-roller's gmage due to the melee stats on the staff, but it's OP in its current form. I expect it will be one of the things fixed in the upcoming patch.

Merged with the Iban suggestion thread and closed.
