what are they, what do they do? from what i can understand, they just randomly(?) range people(mages?)..... but they are quite annoying.
Do we have any snipers, or are we all supposed to stay on the pile?
Is there such a thing as "antisnipers"?
What do i do if someone is sniping me?
do i engage him 1v1 or do i freeze him/her and run away?

also, if one person is attacking me, what do i do?

oh, and is rock-brew better or phoenix-brew?

JUST TO CLARIFY I REALLY WANT ANSWERS THIS IS NOT A TROLL
(how is this a troll? ohmy.gif)

Oh Wayshow, why must you troll. lol

But whatever, I'll bite and answer a few of your questions.

1. Snipers are used to damage potential piles.
2. We have a Sniper unit. (Usually Joe and someone else)
3. Anti-Sniping is attacking those who are sniping you. (Or someone else attacks the person sniping you.)
4. Stay on the pile and do whatever you can to stay alive through the Snipes.

The rest I can't answer seeing as my experience in P2P is limited.

Is this a troll or do you actually want to know the answer? ohmy.gif

Anyway, if one person is constantly targeting you, just hit them back a few times and hopefully they will get off you if you deal a bit of damage.
If they carry on, try running away and binding them a bit, but if they still persist, tell a fall in leader if it is appropriate and see if we can all turn round and hit them once, or even pile them.

Do you mean phoenix necklaces?
I usually keep 2-3 necklaces in my invent for each round of a war, and save them, obviously, for whenever I am piled.
I prefer to rocktail + brew, as this is a very quick way of getting fast hp and ensuring survival, however don't forget to put on a new phoenix necklace as well!

Maybe it's because I'm an old school runescape player who came back to it after a long brake but am I the only person who thinks runescape and it's clans have gone soft.
There were always snipers even before drag bolts and all but nobody bitched about them and there sure as he'll was never a rule in a war that a clan could only have a specified number. In my opinion that's a retarded rule. It's a war a clan should be able to fight anyway they want as long as it's not by cheating. The same goes for no multi spells, another rule which makes the game less challenging.

Clan wars is possibly the worst update this game has ever had. It removes any chance of another clan crashing. A fact that for some reason people seem to love. When clans crashed wars it created enemy's and enemies are what made runescape so great. It gave clans a purpose. Sure it's great when you beat a clan but when you beat your enemy . . . That is how you inspire a clan.

Lordy is probably the only person i know here who will remember back in 2005 or 2006 when WG use to fight rot. We use to get huge pulls because every1 would log on to have a go at bearing the most hated clan in the game. Them days were epic!
Clans need enemies and clan wars don't let you have a chance to make them.

Alternatively allies are forged in the same way when two waring clans regear and unite to crush the clan that just crashed.

Finally and my most hated part of all is the safe option in clan wars. It's basically just castle wars without the flag. You don't learn from no risk and say what you want about looting but people are more likely to want to fight if there's a chance they might get some loot, even if it's just a 200k set of rune from a f2p run in.

Clan wars and all these safe rules that have been invented have ruined whats was great about runescape.

Just my two cents!

P.s wrote this on my phone so there might be a few mistakes

P2p wild is dead so barrage doesnt matter so much these days but the point still stands that clan wars is shit. Safe wars take the fun out of the gam and Not having bragging rights takes the fun out of the game.

F2p is more clan active and always has been because it's cheap to die and it takes longer to ko some one.

Maybe it's just me but I have no intrest in safe wars. I do them cause I'm not gona leave the clan hanging if I'm gona be online but I get no enjoyment in winning a fight with set opps set rules no chance of being crashed. There is no surprise anymore.

Im probably just set in my old ways tongue.gif and there's probably more people who like the new way of doing things seeing as that's what is done but I was just wondering if there were people who felt the same.

It depends on whether the rules allow snipers or not. Unless you're assigned to snipe you shouldn't be sniping. Feel free to hit anyone who starts attacking you though until they run away, then leave em alone.
