Comments on: The Combat Triangle, is it Square? http://informer.rsbandb.com/article/2008/06/825/the-combat-triangle-is-it-square.htm The Latest on Runescape & Rsbandb News Wed, 19 Nov 2008 10:56:01 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.3 By: Jasonmrc http://informer.rsbandb.com/article/2008/06/825/the-combat-triangle-is-it-square.htm#comment-363 Jasonmrc Sat, 01 Nov 2008 23:04:55 +0000 http://informer.rsbandb.com/?p=825#comment-363 I'm glad people read 5 month old articles, makes me feel appreciated :) Every body has their own experiences and opinions. This was written from my experience. From my experience Karil's does not defend against Ancient magics very well. As I have almost always been frozen while wearing it. Though it does help significantly over metallic armor, Karil's cannot wholly prevent spells from getting through. A good defense level (which most people these days lack) and a high Mage level combined with Karil's leather armour is usually good enough to deflect enough spells for a Ranger to be able to kill the Mage. It is very tough, however, for even the best Fighter to win against a high level Mage because the Mage will run a few squares away once the fighter is frozen. Once the Fighter is thawed, the Mage will most likely freeze him again quickly and then run a few squares away. Using this method, it is very hard (but not impossible) for a Fighter to defeat a Mage. All in all, it depends on the situation and characters involved as to how well the battle goes for each player. I’m glad people read 5 month old articles, makes me feel appreciated :)

Any meleer can slap on black d hide and very significantly resist freeze spells or not get hurt too much. When a meleer comes in contact to a mage, they will devastate due to the extreme lack of armor a mage has. If the meleer doesnt have ranger armor with them though, a mage will kill them. Any ranger wearing black d hide or karils will resist alot of spells and the ranger can still shoot through freezes. The mage will die since most mage armor set ups have no ranged def.

Doom: You must be wearing a god cape in order to cast the "Charge" spell. Quote from Jagex: "All of the god spells are incredibly powerful and can be 'Charged' (level 80 Magic) to increase the damage significantly, provided you are also wearing one of the Mage Arena god capes." Thank you, Chief.
