Hidden_ Posted October 5, 2009 Posted October 5, 2009 TL;DR Version at the bottom, it'd be good to read it all though. Alriiiiiiiiiighty. So here's the story, - I've played Runescape for four years. - I'm experienced in mainly F2P Pures, but I have occasionally trained P2P-Based accounts and P2P Pked. - I've got two weeks of doing nothing. - I can get loads of shit done when I know what I'm doing - I got into one little fight and Momma got scared, she said 'your moving in with your Auntie and Uncle in Bel-air." So... I've had about nearly all of the different 1 Defence-type Pures out there, but have generally stayed F2p Based. A few times I have gone and gotten P2P-PKing stats, but never really went through with them, which I am disappointed in myself for doing so. I've never even attemped going into Tanks, Void Pures, etc. I have thought to myself that a P2p-Based Tank would be wayy too much effort, but then again it might not? Now, F2P Pures have always interested me. I believe that F2P-PKing is truely based on Skill, and is a lot of fun and cheap. However, it does grow tiring, you know what I mean? It's the same shit over and over again. Parrot-Pizza was going to be a complete-100% F2P Pure. But then agian, you know... I've been F2P based for nearly two years, and it is getting old but I do love it... Now, Mains have always interested me, you know? I've attempted to go Main a few times, having only one-near success (my cousin now owns the account) but I never really knew how. I guess I'm just pure-hearted. Get it? Shit, I'm so funny. Alright, so the point of this topic was to help me decide. I've got all these options and I dont know which one to chose, and I'd really appreciate your help since I have absolutely little to no idea on what Im going to do, I've always thought a P2P-Based Pure would be nice, but I don't know which steps I could take in order to ensure it become successful. Here are the options: F2p Pure. - 40 Attack - 75 Strength - 1 Defence - 80 Range - 1 Prayer - 59 Magic Pro's: I know my way around the F2P Wilderness Not too hard to gain stats Cheap PKing (Supplies) Generally Fun Account Con's: Been there, done that... like twenty times. Loot is pretty dull in F2P. A lot of faggots in the F2P Wilderness. Hybrid. - 60 Attack - 85ish Strength - 1 Defence - 85ish Range - 1/13/31/44/52 Prayer - 82+ Magic Pro's: - Brand new experience PKing for me. - Generally good-looking account. - Opens the clan-world right up for me. Con's: - Brand new could equal lot's of mistakes. - Costly - Takes time/effort. - PKing is expensive as well. - Will have to deal with the complete faggots that I've heard about in the P2P Wilderness (Rushers, etc.) Range/Magic Pure. - 90 Range - 85+ Magic - 1/13/44/52 Prayer Pro's: - Good for Multi - Can still Solo with it. - Apparently a generally fun account to PK with. Con's: - Expensive - Takes a lot of training and hard work. - No melee what-so-ever. Granite Ranger - 50 Attack - 80ish Strength - 1 Defence - 85ish Range - 1/13/31/44/52 Prayer - Any Magic Pros: - Apparently, it shreds. - Another generally good looking account. Cons: - Expensive :\ - Takes time and effort. - Could get .. you know, fucking dominated if an idiot like me is using it. Rusher. - 60 Attack (Could be 50.) - 90 Strength - 1 Defence - 1 Range - 31/52 Prayer - 94 Magic Pros: - Lulz would be ensured with this account. - Looks very hawt. Cons: - NH. - Will get flamed, etc. - Probably won't get into many clans? 40 Defence, F2P Tank. - 40 Attack - 70 Strength - 40 Defence - 1 Range - 43 Prayer - 1 Magic Pros: - Much Lulz in Edgeville, fighting 1 Defence accounts and having them bitch about not being able to KO me. - It's F2p. It's easy. - Not that costly. - Very easy to train. Cons: - Each death will cost me roughly 200kish? - Won't be able to KO anyone very well. - Its F2P, so again, no REALLY good loot. - Unable to join any clans really, built only for Soloing. ALRIGHT NOW! After you've had a look at my selections, SUGGEST SOME! These are the only ones that I can think of, but I'm sure there are many, many more different types of pures out there! Okay, now I'd like to take a look at the following factors that will have a MAJOR effect on the outcome of my Pure: Defence. In F2P, it's very straight forward. 1 Defence is the only option for a Pure. Get 20, you'll be flagged with fucking defencelords and you won't prosper very well in Multi due to your high combat, however in P2P I know that's different. You've got all these "Prossy Pures" and "Ini Pures" and wierd shit like that. So I would like some help, you know? Chosing... Unless you think that I should make another F2P Based account, but if you think I should try out a P2P-Based Pure, suggest a defence level. Be it 1, 20, 34, 40, 45, 70. Thanks. Attack. Alriiiiight. Again, in F2P it's generally simple. 40 Attack is all you need, so keep it there. In P2P you have a wider range of selections. 40 Attack - Brine Sabre (Lol), No Extra Combat levels. 50 Attack - Granite Maul, Good for KO, will keep me lower leveled (IE, not as good loot.) 60 Attack - D Claws, D Scim, DDS, Your average, everyday P2P Pure. D Claws are good for the KO, so are DDS' and I can Melee PK with it effectively. 70 Attack - I dont think I have ever used a Whip on a Pure before. Im not sure how this would work. Whips cost a fair bit, but are apparently pretty good to PK with so I am keeping this option here. 75 Attack - Godswords. Motherfucking Godswords ;D. I don't think Ive had enough cash to ever buy one of these babies, but alas, they are good in P2P, so I'll keep this option here to. As you can see, a lot of choices. :\ Prayer. Perhaps the main fucking skill that has ruined many of my previous accounts, haha. In F2P, I keep it 1. Nothing to chose, just keep it 1. Rapes at Solo, and looks hot. However in P2p, you've got think about other things. Pray switches, rushers, P2P Wars, Protecting Items and Quests. So Prayer does become a major part of a Pure's life. 1 Prayer - Pretty hawt looking, no protection prayers, harder to do quests, no skill-bonuses. 13 Prayer - Lowest Strength Bonus, only would have if I wanted to do DT but didn't want Prayer. 31 Prayer - Strength Bonuses motherfucker, oh and some nice Protecting of Items. :3 44 Prayer - Bonuses, Bonuses and more Bonuses. Oh and some nice little protective prayers, making mosts quests easy as pie and Rushers just a joke. 52 Prayer - All of the above with an added... SMITE YOU MOTHERFUCKER. All of this effects my Combat, so yeah. :\ Also, now let's have a look at the cost factors of my Pure. F2p Pure. To Create this Pure: I'm looking at spending roughly 4M-ish. An Inventory of PK Supplies (Solo): 90kish. An Inventory of PK Supplies (Multi): 120kish. Cash Needed in total: I'd need around... 10M to have FUN with this account. Hybrid. To Create this Pure: I'm looking at spending something like... 15M, + if I decided to buy Claws I'd be looking at another what, 35M? An Inventory of PK Supplies (Solo): Anywhere from 150k-350k. An Inventory of PK Supplies (Multi): 100K-300K Cash Needed in total: I'd easily need around 25M. Range/Magic Pure. To Create this Pure: Probably around 8M? An Inventory of PK Supplies (Solo): 120Kish An Inventory of PK Supplies (Multi): ^ Cash Needed in total: 11M+ Granite Ranger. To Create this Pure: 4M An Inventory of PK Supplies (Solo): 80k An Inventory of PK Supplies (Multi): Less then 80k. Cash Needed in total: 10M would be PLENTY. Rusher. To Create this Pure: 15M. An Inventory of PK Supplies (Solo): 60k An Inventory of PK Supplies (Multi): 60k-100k. Cash Needed in total: 20M + 35M for D Claws. 40 Defence, F2P Tank. To Create this Pure: 1M. An Inventory of PK Supplies (Solo): 250k An Inventory of PK Supplies (Multi): N/A Cash Needed in Total: 5M would be enough. So yeah, fuck that IS a lot of money if I decided to do one of those P2P Pures, and how would I make that money? I know a lot of people merchant these days, but even that recquires a good amount to start with. I know a few starter ways that could possbily get me enough to start Flipping / Merchanting, and they are; - Flax - Vials - Snape Grass <- My most common way. - 26K/76K - Honeycombs - Mining Essence - Skilling <- *barf*. Fuck that haha. Not very good, right? If you have ANY quality idea's to get me off the ground, I'd appreciate it if you PMed me them. That just about brings you to the end of my Topic, holy fuck that was a big read right? Pictures underneath the TL;DR section ! TL;DR Got a new Account, stats are below, so is the bank. Need advice on what I should turn the account into and how I should make money. Thanks.
OwNiNyOmAmA Posted October 5, 2009 Posted October 5, 2009 i say you should make a hybrid because new experience are good overall and almost all p2p pures end up becoming hybrids at the end when they want to max out GL :D with your goals and states mane LOL at the prince of belair theme song quote :lol:

ownerke3 Posted October 5, 2009 Posted October 5, 2009 I'd go for the granite ranger, try it out and see if you like it ;) you can still turn it into a hybrid or a range/mager if you don't. Have fun :)
Holy Jitte Posted October 13, 2009 Posted October 13, 2009 Hey Hidden, I would suggest you do what YOU want to do in this game. If the only thing you do is PVP then I suggest make an account that best serves how you play the game. There is plenty of playstyles and I would base your choice off of the following: 1. Combat Level - you choose to pk. This can really determine what direction you want to go with your pure. 2. PK Style - How do you want to kill your opponent? Do you want to duke it out and see who is last one standing? Or do you want to go for the Knock Out? 3. Be flexible - Not always are you going to want to do the same thing over and over again in Runescape. Be flexibile. There is (3) different styles of fighting and there is no reason to take advantage of 3 them. That said there is (2) more skills that can really benefit your time playing the game: Prayer and Summoning. I really suggest taking advantage of them because there really is no reason not to (unless you are really worried about 1-3 combat level difference (which in theroy does make a big difference but in the large scale of things odds are you wont always fight someone your combat all the time)). Previous post before doing laundry. Nice topic. I would suggest getting the basic cookie cutter template out of the way and get your gloves, get what prayer your need, get accumulator if you want it, etc and then as you develop the account you will be more comforatble with your choice. As you have posted above there is many choices of playstyles as a pure, i would suggest what one is going to be the best for you. Example: for myself I am a casual player. Too much responcibilties outside the game don't allow me to play this game all the time so what I choose to do on my account was a balance between pvp and pve. My account is 60 attack, 1 def, 86 str, 90 hp... with 99 range, 90 mage, and 44 pray. I also choose to get summoning which is currently 62. My first goal was to get myself an account that would meet FOE requirements so I could be part of the clan again on my own toon. That said I made the decision on what stats I wanted on my pure. Since I been playing this game on and off since early 2002 I could not think about getting anything but 1 defence. I also decided to stay 60 attack because I am a big fan of high hits with scim and KO ability with dagger. Anything more than that would raise me out of comfort combat level wise because I dont want to fight people that have the same stats but with plate. I also decided to utilize leveling range for cash and supporting combat stat. I didn't have much cash on my toon and decided to think how chinese farmers generated money. I soon learned that they farmed dragons due to static hide and bone drops. While searching for the best spot I came across blue dragons in ogre cave. Since I am a big fan of having knowlege about the mechanics of the game I took advantage of the system and power farmed 2 blue dragons on a fast respawn world while watching tv on my comp. I netted about 66m for 85 to 99 range. That skill out of the way i have transitionse into getting 99 mage as well as 90+ strength. My goals are to have solid stats around late 70 early 80 combat with all the tools of the trade for best advantage against my opponents. I will say that even though summoning has been a bit of an expense, i do wish i had gotten into it earlier than i have because it benefits just about any type of player. I hope this helps. Good luck, -Holy Jitte Edit: also, i would suggest changing your topic title so people take it seriously.
breakdownstr Posted October 15, 2009 Posted October 15, 2009 Bunch of money making guides on forums. Anyway i would go with gmauler until you get bored or need a change then switch to hybrid. If you don't want to look at guides an easy way for money is just to pick up patato cactus in KQ doungen.
Nick. Posted October 17, 2009 Posted October 17, 2009 LONG!! I'm sorry man this is the only thing I could think of :(
gfdgfd Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 ITT: A /b/tard -.-' /foe/, Bel air, and TL;DR.. hmm :S I'd suggest keeping the /b/ lingo to /b/... it's frowned upon here... In all honesty... Do whatever you find most fun, since you say you havn't done much in the way of p2p, i'd say start off with 50 attack for a while, if you don't like that, then 60.
