I think it's good that they updated karil and ahirm, they were way too easy.

Im fine with both updates. I use prayer at barrows anyway and I i dont use crumble undead for magic exp. I agree with Seif though, should be more exp for the higher amount of damage you deal.

This will make barrow prices go up :S rather then decrease also it's alot harder now and it was fine before. It looks like they're trying to ruin magic now too.

Magic is nowhere near ruined, they're just trying to change it so people can't raise it without work.

Killing Karil only effects getting Karil armour/bow.
Killing Ahrim only effects getting Ahrim armour/staff.

It shouldn't effect other prices, but you never know with the crazy economy.

so if u only kill one brother and keep doing the same guy u can get only the best armor, like guthan? or would it be better odds to kill all?

and here is a rant i wrote earlier about this on rs rants titled "The Magic Promise"


During the creation of rs2 jagex told us that because runes were going to be a lot more common they were going to HALVE the xp given by spells. that is fine with me, if only we had gotten that xp for dozns of the spells. in their haste to make everything nice jagex overlooked the combat spells, putting them into one simple catagory, but killing ever training with them.

take firewave for instance, in rsc it gave 170 xp per spell. now, it gives 42.5xp per cast plus 2 xp per damage, so that means even if i hit a 20 (the max) with it i will have only gained 82.5xp, thats not the xp jagex promised me. and when u consider in misses and the fact u hit a range from 0-20, means the average hit is 10, PLUS MISSES! THATS MUCH WORSE THEN THE 85 XP WE WERE PROMISED, i am only getting only 68.8% of the xp i have a right to!

jagex needs to rework every single combat spell, making it give the proper xp, like giving 65xp for the cast of firewave(rework all other combat spells in the same formula), which if u hit always would average out to 85 xp per cast (that way, THE WAY ITS SUPPOSED TO BE! everwonder why people used charge to lvl? for one it was better xp per blood then FIREWAVE WAS!!! no, all strike, bolt, blast, wave, and crumble undead spells have this problem and should be tweaked accordingly.

as for how to get rid of the afk spell casting, make it a bannable offense, for afterall they are bug abusing by circumnavigating the proper logout methods.

Here are the following xp rates and what they should be, first is the range of current xp u can get, 2nd is the current average (avg), 3rd is what the average SHOULD BE

air strike:5.5 through 9.5, avg 7.5, should be 11 avg

water strike:7.5 to 15.5, avg 11.5, should be 15

earth strike:9.5 to 21.5, avg 15.5, should be 19

fire strike:11.5 to 27.5, avg 19.5, should be 23

air bolt:13.5 to 31.5, avg 22.5, should be 27

water bolt:16.5 to 36.5,avg 26.5, should be 33

earth bolt:19.5 to 41.5, avg 30.5, should be 39

fire bolt:22.5 to 46.5, avg 34.5, should be 45

crumbleundead:24.5 to 56.5, avg 40.5, should be 49

air blast:25.5 to 51.5, avg 38.5, should be 51

water blast:28.5 to 56.5, avg 42.5, should be 57

earth blast:31.5 to 61.5, avg 46.5, should be 63

fire blast:34.5 to 66.5, avg 50.5, should be 69

air wave:36 to 70, avg 53, should be 72

water wave:37.5 to 73.5, avg 55.5, should be 75

earth wave:40 to 78, avg 59, should be 80avg

fire wave:42.5 to 82.5, avg 62.5, should be 85 avg
