and you can only drink ovls if you have 96 herb like any other pot.. u gotta drink if u have lvl except supers i think

I know I was referring to if getting 96 herb is worth the money.

I honestly hate this combat beta.
I have no idea how any of it works.
Just way too confusing for me.
I know they won't, but I really wish they would keep the combat the same.

If you have the cash to blow then the slight advantage they give in beta is worth it but otherwise they seem nurfed like turmoil is. Kind of surprised jagex hasn’t tried to put a def requirement on turmoil and extremes.

For clarification, I've heard people saying that the God Sword's and Dragon Claw specials are remaining, while other people say that all special attacks period will be removed. Can anyone confirm one or the other?

There are no longer going to be specials but there will be "abilities" so claws and gs's "specials" will be accessable with weapons in same class. The special bar is now the adrenaline bar. Refer to OP and you will understand what i mean.

Oh yeah guys, this has been confirmed by the Jagex mods!

All wind spells, including wind surge will now be free to cast since you only need air runes to cast them! Using an air staff you can cast a level 81 magic attack completely free!!!!

This will be great for mage training and combat in general!!!!

And this will probably affect rune prices...jagex doesn't seem to care about the economy

Turmoil technically has a defense requirement because the quests you need for it get you to 28(I think) but thanks for your opinion.

Removing the specs bar is definitely a bad idea... I do hope the new update will compensate for this...

I agree with this, its causing a lot of items to crash. Dragon claws will be junk, without their special attack they are the worst things ever.

Originally I thought they would still hold their special attack and an extra command would be added to the action bar that allowed you to choose between the special attack or another attack, but apparently this will not be the case.

"Nothing is set in stone"..yet

Imo I think it will be a complete economy disaster..dragon claws might as well be rune claws..

I agree with you 1000001%..why cant we choose.. jagex should give us options

Do you guys think Virtus will drop or rise? I'm contemplating on buying.

I think it will stay around the same price, but think about it the update is 2 months from now and that is a long time where you could be doing other stuff and making the money back using Virtus even if they do crash.

[Sh4dows *BANNED*]

People are telling me it will rise once the update comes, since mage is so much more powerful.

[splodge007]

Btw I think price of d claws will rise again quickly after they crashed and after update. I think the d claws special hasn't been eliminated, just a variety of abilities, including rushing attack have been given to all claws in runescape in the form of abilities for claw weapons only.

Dragon claws will simply be the strongest and hence the most wanted.

[Sh4dows *BANNED*]

Any other predictions on Virtus? Crash, rise, or stable?

Elaborate please on the rush attack

[McKinnonj]

This has got to be the biggest fucking bull shit update I've ever seen. I'm playing the beta and getting destroyed by noobs. They put too many abilities, and overpowered them. I don't understand how to play. It's fucking horrible. Please somebody give me a good setup for a level 200 or whatever the hell it is.

[weeps]

Just played the beta. Im so confused, dont understand a shit. Need to play a bit more i guess.

[Super-natural *BANNED*]

For the reference, Nex armours are likely to rise, all overpowered spec weapons are likely to fall.

That's if the update goes ahead as it is right now.
