New Soak ****

[-Charlie-]

So it has finally arrived... How will this affect clans? Will more people be getting defence? You tell me.

[Hugh]

Pures have never been the best of pking builds, but there good fun. People like fun.

[Nippon]

This won't affect F2P pking much, since range doesn't hit over 200 at all and melee rarely.

 

For P2P pking this might benefit defence, but from clan pking perspective I doubt it changes anything since pure clans mostly just fight other pure clans, and the soak effects of armor up to addy seem to be nominal.

Full Ahrims can deflect almost a quarter of all Melee damage over 200.

[Mayor]

Full Ahrims can deflect almost a quarter of all Melee damage over 200.

 

Good thing i don't fight anyone with ahrims in pure clans?

 

 

 

Will these effect pure clans much?

 

short answer - no

 

long answer - nooooooooooooooooooooooooo

What I mean is it's tempting to get defence now, as the higher your defence is, the less you can get hit and the less frequent you will be hit. Tanks came off well on this update. It will make pures less desirable as Full Ahrims can deflect a quarter of all Melee damage... Normal robes cant deflect anything.

[Pureforeva07]

doesnt affect that much anyway cuz pures are lower in level and lower level means worse armour which means less effect of this update on pures

[Charlie]

Sad.

[Keith]

At first it seems really bad and then after doing a little PKing and some SW it really isn't much of an absorption. Most of the times on larger hits it's a very small one digit absorption.

[Kruckcrusher]

Don't think it really going to effect pures.

[0wnage]

idc i dont fight mains, simple

[Brayden]

Dumb as hell, jagex always finding a way to ruin this.

[2chainz]

doesnt ruin really anything, everyone has the ability to soak damage by buying armor, therefore it being "fair"
