[Combat system] Dharoks axe

[Xoros]

The argument is always the same and always by two parties: Those who PK in Dharoks often, and those who die to it often. Those who PK in it often will sometimes complain it doesn't hit high enough or isn't accurate enough, whereas those who have died to extremely unlucky big hits complain in general Dharoks is too accurate.

Lets take the DDS for example. Player A is using a regular rune setup and DDS. Player B is using full Torags, DFS, etc, and Dclaws. Player B D claw specs player A and hits nothing with both specs. Player B then pulls some giant rambo out of his ass and 2 spec KOs player B. Although this is an unlikely scenario it can and does happen, but you don't see people posting threads asking to nerf the DDS when they get ramboed for a 70 spec by some noob risking a few sharks.

It's a similar situation here, except generally people risking more tend to want to fight others risking more, for example DH pkers, and just so happen to have an unlucky death when they're risking a fair bit more and so die and complain about it. Dharoks PKers will more often than not die to you players in full Zuriels or Statius and a divine, so when 1 out of the 200 DH pkers you've tried killing turns around and gets a very lucky kill on you, please don't complain.

I honestly see no issue with the DH axe on this game. As Mike has shown it's exactly the same as on real runescape. It works for them well enough and it works well enough here.

You obviously must not Pk.

The axe is weak as shit. Please refer to runescape as a reference of the axe. It hits 60+ with less then 30hp or so. On pkh, it doesnt hit below 50, above 50 it can hit 50+. The max with dh axe on pkh is 59. Which is wrong. Never seen higher so yes thats the max

EDIT: im sure someone will pick out the max i said but in the 2 years ive played, never seen higher then 59 and only seen twice

I PK frequently. If you have an issue with my opinion feel free to discuss it with me privately. My private is always on in-game or if you like you could sent me a private message on the forums. Thanks.


My opinion still stands. The DH axe doesn't need to be changed much. If it must be changed, only a very small change is needed.

Ain is right, if you've ever pked in Dh then you'd realize how underpowered it is. In RS it's so desirable because of how high you accurately hit at low hp. And on here, you hit high at low hp about 1/10 times, or even less.

Mike already said DH would be fixed in some way in the next update

Hard one to say, i would just suggest having all the admins test it and come to a final conclusion to it as the poll doesn't really show what the majority of people want

The poll is old, and was prior to nerfing the hell out of dh, now that people see that they fucked up by bitching constantly about it, they want the old unnerfed version back.

I think it's fine, theres always going to be controversy over dharok's anyway…
