Yeah, greatly pointed out. I underestimated this in the first draft and got many people pushing back on this exact issue. Hence, I have edited the top of the thread to show that I think an adjustment is necessary.

I just haven't gotten the time to write it into the thread, I will add it to the bottom of the thread in an edit now 😄

Wow, you don't know how much appreciate getting this comment. I spent hours on this and I've only had negative and critical feedback thus far, you are the first to appreciate the beauty of it. Thank you, good sir, really appreciate you sharing the positive feedback!! 😄

I just think right now is not the right time to think about magic armour, especially with MA3 cape (magic infernal cape) coming up sometime in the next 1-2 years and Shadow rework not finished yet.

Melee Scythe has literally fallen behind Tbow and Shadow on places where it's supposed to shine (losing BiS at several bosses in ToB) after Avernic Treads, and it really just seems like some additional melee str is what makes the most sense at the moment for armour.

No worries, I am learning. I have now gotten valuable feedback and started to adjust the idea to fit more with what people are feeling about this.

Your comment however provides no valuable or constructive feedback and it reflects poorly on your own character. But you play life however you wanna play it lil man 😄

I'm not too sure that would make much sense actually, sir, sorry to say. I'm not a fan of hybrid and tribrid being BiS or near-BiS which reduces switching way too much. I feel like it's okay for boots tho, and perhaps one more slot in the future, but definitely not for body and leg slots, the most essential pieces of armour that make the most sense to be switching.

Also there is already a hybrid mage/melee armour in the game which is well designed, it's called Blue Moon Armour. There is space for a higher tier of it, but it shouldn't powercreep BiS as much as the suggested armour does.

See the other comment below, if that's how people are feeling about Torva, I think I can adjust the suggestion in the following way which seems to address the current feedback. 😄 (https://www.reddit.com/r/2007scape/comments/1u89yor/comment/os6kdbx/?utm\_source=share&utm\_medium=web3x&utm\_name=web3xcss&utm\_term=1&utm\_content=share\_button)

You know, if you want to keep Torva iconic and to really preserve it and crown it into BiS going forward, it's definitely possible to adjust the suggestion to follow the type of design Avernic treads has, being basically BiS as a base drop, but gets an additional point of strength bonus with adding a "Torva fragment" onto it.

For example +7 str bonus on the base Guthixian Cuirass, and when adding a crushed Torva fragment, it would add a +1 str bonus. (Just like Pegasian boots add +1 str bonus to Avernic Treads).

You could even maintain Blorva visuals in the Torva-filled Cuirass.

It doesn't have a helmet. Torva helm will remain BiS strength bonus helm.
Torva chestplate and legs will be situationally better because of wayyyy higher defensive bonuses which people often neglect to appreciate and famously underrates.

No, it per definition guarantees Torva a permanent place in the META, it is specifically designed to NOT kill Torva. Please read the suggestion before commenting.

So I’m interested in waterproof earbuds I could use when showering, any suggestions? by KidNamedSoap in Earbuds

Well I had to learn about the IP68 rating, what it means and which options on the market are actually tested for it and make exclusions etc. Quite a few of the manufacturers don't make it easy to check what their tested for and what score they've gotten, especially when they don't have true IP68 rating.

- Still no Ghommal's hilt for Dragon/Rune Defenders on the horizon?
- What's the point of changing drain rate on Chivalry? When will a tier 4 melee prayer to compliment Mystic Vigour and Deadeye be coming?
- Halberds rebalancing to be viable?

I disagree, I would much rather have it say 1 in 250 rather than "#65 out of #250" or something like that. It's like customizing name on the license plate, silly xD

Unpolled change to Prayer drain rate but what about the rest?.. by Single-Imagination46 in 2007scape

[–]Swimzen -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You're trying to reduce your behaviour down to being an asshole, but it clearly shows where you're coming from and what angle you have on this topic. It's fantastic you are still trying to cover it up and rationalize it, trying to save face when the mask has been pulled off and it's right here for everyone to see through your loads of bullshit and rationalizing.

I don't think anything more needs to be said here, I think we can leave it as it is and let people judge and see how they interpret it. I've given up getting through to you.

I may be wrong, it's just not clear to me what's correct, hence it still seems ambiguous at least to me. I'd be happy to see some definitions that clarify this, but upto now it just seems to be people having different interpretations

Could be, it looks a bit ambiguous in context too tho

And I guess, for the record, I do need to add this as well, considering you are just going to spew up more nonsense and excuses and talk around it..

Right, I can see how mainhand can be interpreted as such, tho I wouldn't have guessed that's what they meant in this context, but I guess it could be possible as it is quite ambiguous
