cutvision Posted August 3, 2015 Posted August 3, 2015 (edited) Basically... I'm wondering if defense does a big impact when pking. I'm taking about around lv 70's Example: Initiate pure 60atk 85 str 20def 80hp 31 prayer Vs Pure: 60 attack 93str 1 def 86hp 43prayer This are just hypothetical stats. Could be more or less. Anyways the initate would be 75cb and the pure would be 76cb. Initiate would have best gear it can wear and so will the pure. (Initiate would be about 130 defense bonus while pure around 80) Will that armor and defence protect shit or will the pure just go right through that shit. Keep in mind that the initiate would have a mithril defender so it'll probably be able to combo more often the pure due to higher accuracy bonus and str. Edited August 3, 2015 by cutvision
SpiritualAbyss Posted August 3, 2015 Posted August 3, 2015 I vote for the pure. But in the end of the day i think it comes down to the pker him self and his pking skills. I had this 79cb void ranger with 99 range and 42 def and I was k0ing people left and right. with full void i was actually one hitting people with the dark bow But with 20 def I honestly don't think it matters. I believe the pure would rip right through that shit. a zerker against a pure would be a better comparison
The Hero of Time Posted August 3, 2015 Posted August 3, 2015 the thing about initiate pures is that they always smite? which requires 52 prayer.. what's the point of wearing initiate, mithril has the same defence stats apart from prayer bonus
Jonny Posted August 3, 2015 Posted August 3, 2015 Most Initiates train there Attack up past 60 as well for whip/ags.

Just looking to get lower cb possible while maintaining high offense and get the extra defensive bonuses that the armor could give me and at the current level I'm planning to pk there's really no whips n shit to smite and I doubt there'd be many 52 prayer pures in those lvls as well It'd be some sort of 1def pure except that it could be able to sustain hits better. Since leaf blade is at 50 and it's comparable to dragon scimitar though a bit less str bonus it seems viable and the gmaul really wrecks. If I decide to go ranged/gmaul it'd also work out as since ranged can get very high without levelling cb (like 96) Most Initiates train there Attack up past 60 as well for whip/ags. I Know but at that point (70/75 atk and 52 prayer) the account would be around 85cb which is pretty much zerkerlantis. Something I believe I'd be very outmatched in. While at 70-75's Ive seen most are pures and void rangers also some new zerker pures but at that level I don't think they're that good due to low str/hp Edited August 3, 2015 by cutvision
The Hero of Time Posted August 3, 2015 Posted August 3, 2015 since ranged can get very high without levelling cb keep hitpoints in mind though, either ranged guild or cannon
cutvision Posted August 3, 2015 Author Posted August 3, 2015 (edited) keep hitpoints in mind though, either ranged guild or cannon yeah ranged/hp is going to be a pain in the arse to get. But look at where I'm pointing at. NOT taking into account rng/hp which would make this varie but just an example http://i.imgur.com/ZDeKcTh.png[ http://i.imgur.com/DJs9YWv.png] Either way, I may have the upper hand in terms of defense/tanking when meele vs melee(Defense won't do shit against rangers) but I'll be limited to only using GMaul, unlike my opponent with dds.
