    In future vids you should use the Fashionscape plugin to wear items you don't have, then just put a static image edit of the item and the affected stats for the equipment screen.

    I just recently started playing osrs as an actual RS3 player. Just recently got 70 magic using the mystic smoked staff for the 10% accuracy and damage boost to my normal spells. I'm still using mystic armour except for infinity boots. I was also using tome of water as I was training at blue dragons boosting my water spells. I'm soon to get that necklace you mentioned that got debuffed. So far I have about 40 something quests done and around 104qps. I'll continue with the grind however I'm stuck with which should be my next weapon upgrade. I was looking up the weapons and liked the toxic death staff sitting around 16m. I'm working towards the cash. Is the staff worth it or which weapon should I aim for?

    • @patyfatycake_OSRS
      @patyfatycake_OSRS  3 месяца назад +1

      No not at all, it's really a niche item that was surging because of project rebalance. Your best magic DPS is going to be a trident of the swamps for like 3m or so.
      For overall upgrades I reccomend basing it around what you want to do in game.
      For TOA and Cox a fang would be a solid jack of all trades upgrade.
      It's really hard to say without knowing the full situation But I wouldn't buy a staff of the dead unless you know exactly why you're getting it.

    Late game magic benefits the most from the recent combat changes what do you mean? They literally made sure the end game gear was stronger

    • @99sonder
      @99sonder 3 месяца назад

      Their initial proposal made it so end-game gear was better, but after the revisions, end-game gear remains mostly the same, whereas pretty much anyone using Augury and still had an Occult were buffed in a non-shadow setup if they just take advantage of 2 or more of the new sources of magic damage, like eternal boots, any Hat/body/legs of infinity or better. Even without Augury, Mystic Might with Ahrims and Occult is equal damage bonus on non-shadow mage gear, and that's not even counting boots or any off-hand you might wanna use.
      While the Damage output of max mage technically increased, it only really got better if you actively took advantage of each and every piece, otherwise it's worse. So if you're doing some magic only content like Whisperer it's a straight upgrade, but in situations like raids or colosseum where you'd want to use other styles, you'd need to bring more switches or let DPS of one or more styles suffer.
      A way that both end-game and mid-game is nerfed is that for barraging/such, it's more important to bring mage gear, so proselyte barraging and tank gear barrows becomes less viable. But I argue it makes more sense to be using magic in magic gear

    I think that the powercreep in OSRS has showed how outdated the defense system is. Defense bonuses from armor are not very valuable compared to getting more offensive bonuses.

    • @patyfatycake_OSRS

    • @Sir_Lagg_A_Lot
      @Sir_Lagg_A_Lot 2 месяца назад

      @@patyfatycake_OSRS It is more than just faster kills=less damage taken. There are more ways to scale dps than there are to scale defense. Basically accuracy counters defense, but accuracy scales multiplicatively with max hit. Technically defense scales multiplicatively with HP, but levels (strength for melee) scales multiplicatively with strength bonuses from gear. That means as powercreep continues the time to kill in PvP decreases. There are already combos that can hit higher than 99 HP+ an anglerfish. In pve, it means that enemies have much higher HP than the player, and the NPC's stats. I think armor and defense levels should provide some % based damage resistance, in addition to making the enemy more likely to miss.

    • @aleksihakli1125
      @aleksihakli1125 2 месяца назад

      Power creep is a double edged sword. On one hand, new BiS items are needed as the game evolves and are good for the health of the game.
      The downside is more about balancing. If power creep is kept unchecked, new items may absolutely trivialize content, making once decent money makers for med lvls nigh obsolete, forcing them to rush to end game to make their account sustainable.
      It's important to maintain a balance between direct upgrades and side grades, to maintain a healthy progression curve.
      Tf2's item unlocks are a good example of maintaining balance, each item fills a nieche for certain playstyles, never directly taking the drivers seat as BiS.
      Hope I made any sense.

    • @poro3246
      @poro3246 2 месяца назад

      He litterally said it's necessary for the longevity of these types of games. Powercreep often has a negative connotation because it's hard to get it right. Many game devs go a bit too hard on the powercreep. I feel like osrs does it really well, with a few exceptions in the earlier days. Bis upgrades should be related to how long it takes the previous and the new bis. If a grind takes the average player 10 months, it makes no sense to make a new bis of it every year. The way bis upgrades are spaced now is really healthy. The addition of side-grades and midgame upgrades makes the game so much better for new players or rebuilds.

I'll say from the level 40 gear to bis is a good jump sure but a 27M setup I can put in 40+ kc a trip and that's more mid level gear. From mid to bis is not a huge jump currently.
