      Honestly though, we might put the noob label on ourselves, and I wouldn’t excuse the ignorance; but once you see the difference just the one time, you never go back, you always move forward with your gaming. Only thing that matters is the fact that you take honest criticism and make it work for you!

    So many new/returning players on Reddit recently, all asking for advice of some kind. This is a great vid for them and a series would be well received I am sure. Much more useful than getting a couple sentences on Reddit, and a nice segue into your guides for slayer/bossing etc as they often ask those questions as well.

    Off hand glaive does have one very important perk: it doesn't require ammo. If you use a main hand without ammo, you want the offhand without ammo as well

    • @F-Lambda
      @F-Lambda Год назад

      Piggying on this: there's *one* situation where the glaive actually *does* increase damage, due to the fact that the it doesn't use ammo, and that's when using bane bolts, which are tier 60 ammo. Your main hand crossbow will be capped at t60 damage, but the glaive will do t80 damage while still benefiting from the bane effect.
      This feature is also shared with darts and crystal chakrams, though darts have the downside of having a slightly shorter range than crossbows.

  • @sdfE36
    @sdfE36 3 года назад +1

    been correcting this for YEARS, but the thing about t85 gwd2 offhands is only fully correct for melee and ranged. when casting spells from your spellbook such as vuln or entangle or ancient spells and dual wielding with mage, the hand that is used for casting the spell ROTATES between the two. by using a t80 mage offhand instead of a cwyir orb, you are really hurting your debuff and ancient spell accuracy.

    • @MaikeruRS
      @MaikeruRS  4 года назад +4

      Not really, those things are typically bought as a luxury, helping with porters and a little money back from RDT + chance at HSR.
      I guess brooch pays for itself if you're going for 120 buyables on portables, but again has a hefty buy-in cost.
      Typically just buy those things if/when your budget allow and it makes sense to with your goals. If 120 skills aren't your goal, they're not going to be anywhere near as worth.

    • @LegDayLas
      @LegDayLas 4 года назад +1

      For skilling, get a gote asap if you plan to do allot of gathering skills.
      Gathering skills typically (but not always) do not cost you anything to do, so the cost of investment into a gote is not a problem, because you don’t really have anything else the money could be going to.
      The sooner you get a gote, the sooner it will pay for itself, and it does so pretty quickly. If you are skilling focused then ya get gote asap,even avoid doing gathering skills till you have it if possible. As for lotd, useless for skilling without the gote, and even with the gote the chances you get a hsr are low af (higher then chance from lvl though because of how many rolls you get skilling) so not a huge priority to get this, but still good to get eventually to avoid the heartbreak of a roll on the hsr table without the ring on.

    2:15 does this mean there is 0 point in buying tier 92 off hands for ranged / magic? just always stick with tier 80 and it will output the exact same damage? (other than if you care about your two weapons looking cosmetically the same?)

    • @MaikeruRS
      @MaikeruRS  2 года назад +1

      The damage is 33% of your overall damage.
      The accuracy is not accounted for.
      So t92 offhands have t92 damage, making them far better than t80.
      But the way the cywir orb works in particular is that its t85, but has t80 damage and t90 accuracy, so its just a virtus book in terms of damage tier, coz accuracy doesnt matter for offhands.
      Seismics are t90/t90 so it's still +10 tiers on damage with 33% of the total, and 66% comnig from the mainhand.

    @madape556 3 года назад

    I know this video in a few months old, but when I checked how abilities are calculated on the wiki, it says that that damage only applies for melee; not range or magic. The magic and range calculations use spells and ammo as the calculations vs raw damage as melee does. Unless I'm completely misunderstanding this. T85 with T90 accuracy + highest spell/ammo would be much better than t80 with t80 accuracy, right?

    • @MaikeruRS
      @MaikeruRS  3 года назад

      Highest spell and ammo are capped at the damage of a weapon.
      So a t80 weapon will always be capped at t80 damage even with t90 bolts.
      Same applies with the gwd2 weps as they have t80 damage being t85, they wont go any higher than t80 damage.

    I appreciate your insight on the video. If I may, I would like to point some things out.
    if I understand it right, the idea right now is to focus on the offensive moreso on the defensive. This is definitely the right move, but there's a catch to this strategy. this strategy works IF you are very well aware of what's happening around you, you know the mechanics of things and boss fights, and you have really good reflexes. unfortunately, not everyone is that well aware, and not everyone has well refined reflexes. that is not to say that people can't learn, but you can't learn without being punished for it. I like to think of tank armor being something like training wheels: you can learn how to develop your awareness and reflexes with it, but you dont wan't to get too comfortable with it. you only would want to have that tank armor long enough to help you develop the reflexes and awareness needed. When you have enough experience with the game, then it would be appropriate to go full on offensive with power armor. Going full offensive too early without the reflex and awareness skills may be a bit dangerous, but everyone's case is different. on top of that, it also depends on how the boss fight works and how hard hitting everything is. now that i think about it, it very well could be that the balance on armor and damage on bosses and whatnot may not be so finely tuned that it may actually be more punishing to wear tank armor.

    • @MaikeruRS
      @MaikeruRS  4 года назад +1

      Yeah i understand that.
      But you also need to remember. Typically things people die to, or need to improve on is typeless damage or other things that don't actually get solved by armour on gear.
      For example, at rax the blob kills a lot of people, alongside the insta kill spider, web and mirrorback. Tank armour would not save you against these things, practice will. Same applies for a decent amount of other bosses.
      Not to mention, the faster you phase a boss, the hard you hit, the easier the kills normally are at so many different places. You get punished for bad dps, and gear can be a factor in that.

      @bejoba3519 4 года назад +1

      ​@@MaikeruRS ah okay. i didn't think about the typeless damage. It would only make sense to just straight up go full on offensive no matter what and just take some time to practice the bosses like you've explained in the video.

My speculations were based on the thought of if typeless damage was not a thing, which was beyond my clarity. i appreciate you clearing things up for me.

    @Maikeru I have a LotD that i bought back when they were like 25-30m. I quit and just recently came back. Would you recommend selling it to invest in t90 gear and just buying it again later down the line once i have better gear?

    • @david15136
      @david15136 4 года назад

      In my opinion, unless you're getting an important t90 weapon/inquisitors staff, just keep it and grind out the money. If you sell now it could jump up in price costing you more, and it'd just being annoying to have that happen

    I bought it a looong time ago when it was like 30m, after I had a scythe and other T90s, and I’ve used it pretty much every time I’ve farmed any trash mobs and on every slayer task. Since buying the LotD, I’ve gotten 120 in slayer, attack, strength, defence, constitution, magic, and currently have 113 ranged. I got the LotD around the time all those skills were 99-101 ish. How much of a difference has the LotD really made for me in all that time?

    @SmithCommaBenjamin 4 года назад

    The armor part makes good point, and RS3 players know it, in a general sense. For beginners, tank armor is probably best, but once you start getting to bosses that dish out damage- tank armor helps a lot for low level players; because tank armor has the same defense stats as power armor 5 lvls below it.
    Ports (t85) armor has t90 power armor def, plus extra life points
    QBD range armor(t65) has t70 def stats
    and so forth
    It allows you higher defense at lower levels. Also, unless you have a good dps rotation- which you likely won't due to the time and money the needed abilities take to acquire -worry more about negating damage.

      It depends on which style you use the most.

      But if you want an upgrade for mage/range the eof would be lovely for the gstaff and/or dbow specs and giving you both amulets in 1. Although do remember it's upkeep is a lot higher than a souls too. So I had to buy a souls ammy for afk slayer alongside my eofs.

    • @MaikeruRS
      @MaikeruRS  4 года назад

      If you don't do pvm and you don't need the money while doing clues, no need to sell the ring. It will also help a little while obtaining them.
      Although it is good to note that a ring of fortune is the exact same for hard clues as a lotd. As they only need tier 3 luck that the fortune provides.
      You only 'need' tier 4 luck for elites and masters.

    i would still recommend tank armour for mage though if you use the animate dead spell, even after the recent rebalance.
    especially for bossing and slayer. the other styles, 100% go power armour, but i wouldnt go power for mage unless youre already quite good at pvm.
    the amount of extra damage youd do with power armour compared to animate dead's added survivability doesnt really win out in my books.

    Have to disagree with the whole power armor is king and better than tank armor. You can really see when some people have been doing high level pvm for so long they tend to forget how amazing tank armor can be for low to mid level players and for HCIM/IM. I mean i thought this was for NEW and RETURNING PLAYERS. New players and some Returning Players will not have access to Scrimshaws/ss/auras and ect
    1) Tank armor isn't for high level pvm its for low to mid level pvm. It's for the players that don't have scrimshaws/SS/auras to help heal themselves or they just don't do enough dps to make these items useful YET.
    2) Tank armor is also situational ie ( Guthans is better than Bandos at frost dragons when you don't have any other healing methods other than the armor and weapons themselves at the same level.) Guess what this can help you get your 92 prayer for SS so you can start using power armor over tank armor even faster if you don't want to buy prayer.
    3) When you dont have Scrims/SS/Auras Tank armor allows for greater heals over power armor when using your Healing abilities, which almost NO HIGH LEVEL PVM'er really uses these days because they have Scrims/SS/Auras.
    Overall this video make me feel sad as its ONLY from a HIGH LEVEL PVM perspective and not for new players. New players should be taught when they should start making the transition not just being taught TANK ARMOR BAD.

    Things that the LOTD can do that the Ring of Fortune can't:
    - Teleport to Keldagrim.
    - (very slightly) increase chance to receive a unique drop from: Araxxi, Barrows: Rise of the Six, Beastmaster Durzag, Nex: Angel of Death, Solak, The Magister, Telos, the Warden, Vorago, and Yakamaru, not including boss pets. The 1% increase actually means 99% of the denominator (1/x), rounded up.
    - 2% chance of upgrading your trash geode when mining into a metamorphic geode. RoF only had 2%
    - +1% for rare clue-specific loot from elite and master clue scrolls, while RoF only had this boost up to hard clues.
    - 3% chance more to get rare drops from crystal chest and triskelions, when it was 2% with RoF.
    - Removes flax, raw lobsters, and molten glass from RDT. Used to be trash. Some are actually valuable now.
    - Chance to get Vecna skull and HSR from RDT
    - Destroy your cash stack.

      Depends how much money you have.
      Using a mainhand ascension and offhand chaotic will still be strong and worth it. But duel wield ascensions will obviously increase the Offhands damage by 10 tiers which is beneficial. But the mainhand is a bigger upgrade to get first than Offhands, always.
      But if you don't have a different style, for less than that 200m you could get drygores and an obliteration staff and have the choice of different styles for diff bosses, which would be good.

Use Penance to help you focus on mechanics (there's not many) and less on healing, prayer restore, and juggling mechanics. Try to learn solo if possible so you are forced to understand it better, but duo is viable too. As for a bar set up, Google whatever your using dual/single, and get gw1 abilities unlocked (Sacrifice, Devoted) as well as Mazcab if you're using range/mage. As long as you use minimum t80 equipment, you should be alright getting 3 or 4 kills per trip while learning :)
