I have a couple of questions if you don't mind, u/JagexAyiza
When the blog says "We add 100% accuracy to the special attack" for the Blowpipe, does this mean +100% accuracy, or just straight-up never misses?
Can we get some before vs after DPS numbers on the Blowpipe for those peasants among us who aren't maxed Range with Rigour and BIS Ranged gear? Like, say, 80 or 85 Ranged with Karils or Black Dhide and the 15% Prayer?
I know people with very high combat stats are the ones who will be taking the Blowpipe to the Inferno and Alchemical Hydra and suchlike, but the mid-levels among us have uses for the Blowpipe too, especially with it being so affordable, and I feel like we stand to lose more DPS from the nerfs than maxed players since a higher proportion of our Ranged accuracy and strength is coming from the Blowpipe itself.
Hey!
- It will be +100% accuracy rather than making it never miss
- I'd love to be able to include more build variations, but there are so many different gear setups I don' think it'd be realistic to include them all (and the devs would hate me for asking for them too!). I do agree we could do better at having a "default" mid-tier setup to use though.
Hopefully you'll get a good feel for how much it'll impat you personally in the beta as you'll be able to grab all your typical gear and go test whatever you want!
