Struggling to decide what type of account to make? Hopefully this guide will spark a few ideas off for you.
There are many different account types in Runescape. These account types are suggested by Runescape with updates and quests this gives people the incentive to get certain items at the lowest level possible therefore being a low-level yet super effective against other average players with the same combat level either in the wilderness or skilling around Runescape.
Throughout my years of playing I’ve tried many account types and have experienced the advantages and disadvantages. Here’s a few examples of account types (note: there’s a lot more than shown):
Typical Main account where all statistics are trained to gain the highest total level
1 Defence pure, combat account generally a player-killer but remains 1 defence
20 defence pure, combat orientated 20 defence with 52 prayer for smite
Rune pure, generally F2p with 40 defence and high strength
Void/ Berserker pure, combat account with 42-48 defence turmoil prayers and created correctly all defence levels can be gained from quests eg; Dragon slayer, Defender of Varrock etc.
Barrows pure, 70-75 defence. Combat orientated ability to wield most armours a higher level account close to that of a main
Range/ Mage tank, range and magic based account with attack and strength generally kept between 70-75. Account is very effective and high a contender against mains
Unique accounts, accounts where they’re trained to look great! accounts such as 10hp pures or 99 hitpoints pures here’s an example of this type of account, this account is level 40-50
Like I said these are only a few examples there are plenty more account types you could try, these are just a few ideas for you to work off, hope this helped you guys!
After years of hardcore Runescape, from the very start it was all about achieving the highest level you could! Everyone was whats know as a “main” which I thought was brilliant you could really tell who was a good player and who wasnt just by looking at their combat level in other words it was simple…
In recent times there’s has been many a change to this theory, for many years my home world has been W132 it was a quiet yet skillful world and it seemed only skilled players who knew what they we’re doing used the world now from the screen shot below you can see things have sort of changed..
Please note, this isn’t even a particularly busy time! And I’m almost positive this is a similar for most worlds so I’m here to warn you all! Pures are taking over..
Since before I can remember I’ve always been a huge fan of the Wilderness. I’ve always found the prospect of killing other online players quiet trilling.
In past years Runescape have made many changes to the way the Wilderness works, I thought the Bounty-Hunter craters and later release of PVP and the assorted drops we’re a huge addition to the game which made people killing a fun, thrilling and enjoying source of income.
Then in late December 2010 – January 2011 Runescape decided to bring back the old ways of the Wilderness giving us the chance to receive the exact items your opponent is wearing.. For most this update was the panicle of 2010 ‘The Return Of The Runescape Wilderness’ and admittedly I was one of the many people looking forward to the update.
But.. After a few days Pking, you release it wasn’t all it was cracked up to be.. Fighting people with minimal risks prices of rune armour and other pking items dropping vastly in price meaning kills we’re worth almost nothing.. Then the release of the Korasi Sword, just to top it off.. People standing in the wilderness with nothing but a Strength Amulet and a Korasi Sword to PJ anyone left on the battlefield receiving a full loot while risking 3-4k to this day Pking is one of the most annoying and frustrating activities on Runescape and I can only hope! Something is done about it.
This was by no means an easy Top Five! So many great RuneScape players from the YouTube community throwing out some exceptional Player killing videos! But after scouring YouTube I’ve found five videos that make sitting around all weekend in your underwear truly worth it!
1) Ye Im Tank
First of is a video by Ye Im Tank which has been edited and posted by itspaulftw. The video was posted on 12th November 2010 with a total of 29,035 views to date, which isn’t very many but this video is well worth a watch and will gain many more views over time.
The video contains high risk Player Killing with immense switches, high hits and fairly good loots. It also shows the use of the Chaotic Crossbow and the Chaotic Staff which are rather new editions to the game.
2) Hybr1d0wnz5 (Tannk)
3) Taco Limey
Next we have a video by YouTube user SignUp4Ko Player killing on his account “Taco Limey” with over 250,000 views on this video alone Taco Limey is proving to be one of the most popular player killers of the year!
Taco Limey was a RuneScape berserker pure for a long time, having 45 defence and player killing at lower levels, only recently has he maxed out his account and started player killing at higher levels and what a good decision he made! Making himself an ever more established player then before. Bigger hits, more variety, more armour and weapons has made Taco Limey an amazing player to watch.
