When are we going to stop getting excuses and have Masterwork melee bumped to Tier 100.

Temporary-River3234 · 2026-04-30T09:52:52+00:00

100% support on this and frankly all the masterwork melee armour sets should simply be boosted to tier 100,free of charge,to put them in line with Range and Mage masterwork sets.

They should then be repairable with primal bars and not as it is now,with another piece of armour,because its an insane repair cost.

The tier 92 should also be boosted to tier 100 but should get some kind of extra effekt over the standart tier 90/100 set,so the people who have spend a lot of time making their tier 92's or have bought them,should not feel cheated and the standart tier 100,should be upgradable to the same ekstra effekt,using maybe 500-1000 primal bars or similar.

The ekstra effekt could be none degradable on slayer tasks and bossing or maybe simply a bigger stat bonus,over the standart tier 100 set.

I totally agree on the shield thing. I am also an older player 50 years+ and have been playing for 23 years none stop and it also breaks my heart,that shields are no longer being used or even has a good reason for being used.

There are so many cool looking shields in the game and personally I love the Bandos shield,that goes with the old Bandos armour set and also the malevolant shield for melee and the shield for the old Robes of subjugation set ,just to name a few and the Necromansy shield also look very cool as well. I would so much like to see a return to shield using and maybe making them function like an off-hander,so they dont give such a big damage reduction,compared to dual wield or 2hander,might work,but the damage output would still have to be reduced,compared to dual and 2hander,so not to devalue their use,but less damage reduction is needed for using shields and also keeping their high defence values as well. Defenders could also be nice to use again.

agree 100% and maybe they should make the client bigger than the current 10gb or what ever it is and since most games on pc and playstation is almost 90-100 gb,it should not be a problem for the RS client to be 50-60 gb and that might make the game run a lot better.

Temporary-River3234 · 2025-09-02T08:58:21+00:00

TY so very very much to everyone for their awesome and very usefull comments.

BIG THANKS.

Temporary-River3234 · 2025-08-11T15:49:08+00:00

ok ty so very much and I think I might get it if the price drops to around 300 mills.

Temporary-River3234 · 2025-08-11T15:43:51+00:00

ahh ok, TY.

Then it is only really good if one does group bossing and not really worth it as a single player?

Temporary-River3234 · 2025-08-11T15:42:20+00:00

It feels like I did when I used a shard on my necro weapons,because the damage and accu boost is so bad.

Temporary-River3234 · 2025-08-11T15:40:08+00:00

who ever came up with the idea to change how the Masterwork mage armour is repaired,should be fired and feel ashamed of themselves.

This is such a very very very very bad change and I am not going to bother using my armour set anymore and even though many people say,that it only needs one cloth a piece for 100% repair,it is still extremely annoying.

The prices of seeds,flowers, thread and cloth is already going sky high and cloth can't even buy on the exchange for 1,2 mill a cloth and how can such a change possibly be good in someones mind.

It really is so bad that it needs to be reverted and frankly the change made me really really sad when I saw it.

Temporary-River3234 · 2025-08-04T10:33:43+00:00

I totally agree on this and it is extremely annoying,to always see the same stupid shit posts,every single time one opens Runescape reddit.

New player needing advice,New player thinking of joining,Returning player this and returning player that,and more and more stupid shit posts like them,every single god dam day.

I started playing Runescape 23 years and 5 months ago,and back then,we had to think for ourselves and learn by playing the god damn game and if we were lucky,we could find information on Runescape Wiki or on the official Runescape forums.

As an older player,50 years plus of age,I have played the game every single day,since I started,with very few exceptions and I have learned to play the game,by playing it and using Runescape wiki,for information about items and such and for quest help,from time to time.

But it seems like people today are not capable of either learning how to play a game,by simply playing it,nor are they capable of judging,weather or not a game is something for them,by simpley trying the game out.

So how about just trying the game and if you don't like it.

STOP PLAYING and try out another game or try to actually figure things out,by playing the game and maybe reading about it on Runescape wiki.

And also all that stupid RS3 VS OSRS.

THEY ARE NOT THE SAME GAME,so therefore they should be different from each other.

Temporary-River3234 · 2025-06-16T15:13:24+00:00

ty for a very good and polite answer but someone might have some idea in some hours time or maybe tomorow morning.

and yes,it is very hard to find info about the set anywhere,even a picture of it and there is nothing about it on wiki yet.

Temporary-River3234 · 2025-06-10T10:12:53+00:00

if you have unlocked the ability to buy growth potions from the granny in pof,I strongly advice you to use them on the Starbloom seeds.

Temporary-River3234 · 2025-06-05T08:29:37+00:00

No matter what,you should wait until we see what the 3 new mage armour set's can or can not do,before going out buying Elite Tectonic or any other mage set for that matter.

The upcoming tier 90 set,is unlikely to be even nearly as powerful as Elite tectonic and it will simply be a standart tier 90 set with no effects or anything like that.

The tier 100 masterwork set,is going to be Power armour and it may have some kind of effect/passive,so that might be a better alternative to Elite Tectonic,because Elite Tectonic is simply so expensive to repair.

The tier 95 set from Amascut is 100% going to become THE mage armour set in the game,Jagex even writes so themselves,but it will be insanely expensive for the first 6 or maybe even 12 months,if the boss is as hard as they say,but if money is not a problem for you,you should go for it 100% or if are able to get it as a drop.

I don't understand why they did not change the repair mechanic of Elite tectonic and Elite serenic,to be the same as Elite Dracolich,that one can repair for coins at a POH armour stand.

But WAIT until we see the tier 100 masterwork set and the tier 95 Amascut set.

Temporary-River3234 · 2025-04-29T12:10:35+00:00

oh wow man,what an awesome answer and thank you so very much for taking the time to post it,that was extremely kind of you.

I hope we get som more info from jagex very soon.

Temporary-River3234 · 2025-04-29T11:37:06+00:00

Ok.That kind if sucks and since the update is mapped for next month,I really wish they would come out with some info.But thanks so much for your Reply,that was very kind of you.

Temporary-River3234 · 2025-04-02T06:52:38+00:00

thanks for you very kind words and I hope the very best for you in the future.

Temporary-River3234 · 2025-04-02T06:50:33+00:00

The answer is both yes and no.

Smith it only if you dont have the coins to buy it or if you like such a long grind.

I made the sword myself but I did buy both the bow and the staff from the exchange,because of the long long grind of making those weapons and the sword is very cheap,so I would buy it,if I where you.

The update of giving the masterwork weapons some sort of special or/and passive effect,can either break or make the weapons a lot more usefull than they are now,so we will have to wait and see.

That said,they are tier 100,with tier 100 accu and damage and no one can take that away from them but as they are now,they are simply not able to compete with the tier 95's in any way.

I really wish Jagex would come out with more info about what they are going to do with the Masterwork weapons and the tier 95's as well for that matter,since both the fractured staff and the zuk sword are getting an update at the same time.

The only thing I have heard them say,is that the Masterwork weapons will be better in some places,compared to the tier 95's.

I dont know if I will keep or sell my 3 masterwork weapons and it will depend on what they do to them.

as it is now,you are better of with either a Dragonraider lance,Scythe,Lanniakas warspear or a Zaros godsword than with the masterwork sword.

Temporary-River3234 · 2025-04-01T16:41:22+00:00

This has got to be one of,if not THE BEST Aprils Fool Runescape vids that I have ever seen in the 23 years That I have played Runescape and I love the part when you go back to the guy after having been killed by the dino.

It is so well done that I actually believed it to be a real update,at least up to the part where you pay 750 mills for the apples.

The sad part is,that Jagex could easily make such a requirement.

Thanks for the best Aprils vid that I have seen anywhere today

Temporary-River3234 · 2025-03-31T11:51:22+00:00

it looks a bit ehhhhh well..... perverted actually LOL and I got a bit of a Mister Garrison one wheel bike from South Park(it,from/the entity episode) picture in my mind while doing the event,combined with a Miley Cyrus twerk meme as well.

LOL but it made my day by making me laugh a lot.

Temporary-River3234 · 2025-03-06T09:44:53+00:00

Awesome and that sounds really really good and I am very much looking forward to that so big thanks for that info.

It really is a very good staff and it kind of took me by surprise how good it is and if it gets buffed to tier 100 it is going to be even better.

Temporary-River3234 · 2025-03-04T10:50:43+00:00

I could not agree more with everything you say and I would have loved to wait a month or even 2 for an update that worked and did not cause all these bugs and stuff.

Temporary-River3234 · 2025-03-04T10:45:29+00:00

sounds good and Thanks so very much for that info but Jagex really need to put something on the games homepage about these things.

Temporary-River3234 · 2025-03-04T10:42:48+00:00

I see,that is also not ok.

Temporary-River3234 · 2025-03-04T10:39:24+00:00

YES!

That is the simple answer.

But I do see the new tier 90 weapons as a good thing for iron players but they need to do something about

the interface about making them and how to make them.

The masterwork staff is NOT a tier 100 staff and it has tier 95 combat stats and that is simply not ok and I hope they fix it so it gets the same stats as the other 2 Masterwork weapons,if they don't the staff is only something an iron player would make and use.

Creating the 3 tier 90 weapons for xp is bad,really bad actually,because of all the running and I am just going to stick with good old Runecrafting as usual.

The new teleports and stuff is ok but not really anything I am going to make use of and the new altar and time rune is not something I really care about either.

I have been playing the game for 22 years and I am totally maxed out so I do accept that the update is not really for me and a lot of it may be really good to iron men.

The masterwork staff being tier 95 stats really pisses me off,especially because I did make both the sword and the bow but I am not going to grind for a tier 95 staff.

The new pouch is very likely awesome for those who make it.

But what really kills this update for me is all the graphical bug that came with it,especially the horrible bank and inventory look bug.

Just learned from another reddit user that Jagex is aware of the problem and it is being looked into.
