Make Mage only in Tournies bannable

[Hatcx]

I am sure half the players on the server have experienced being in a hybrid tourney where someone uses mage only with the maximum mage bonus and they run away from you ect

Just make it fucking bannable its autistic.

been telling this to gretar for months

[JBLIND]

Spoken to Gretar COUNTLESS times on how to fix this but he's a dork 

[Tupac]

Me rahals carpets and goggle frames-jblind spoke to gretar many times about this

not sure if we ever came up with a method to effectively police this with no staff around (ideas??)

how would that stop people from using mage only? I think best solution is to reduce the amount of spells ur allowed to use per round, just gotta figure out a good number.

it won't but it will stop people having a set-up like this;

Could then just reduce food more, maybe max 12 anglers in hybrid/tribrid toruneys, but no matter how much food you cap you can't really stop people from using mage only unless you only give them a set amount of casts or make mage weak.

I know you want it so people can chose what they want to use but it hasn't really worked. 

Even if you just reduce the amount of food you can bring people will still camp ahrims hood, tent with no defender. Seers I torm bracelet etc...

Having equal gear with not excessive mage bonus is the way forward at this point or try and push out what I suggested before where it works like when you load the Hybrid pre-made kit. The kit is set out for you but you have a choice of 4 way, 5 way and 6 way. 

You could also try entering the tournament and having the rune pouch, anglers pots all set-up for you already. Boots rings defender n tent (depending on what tournament) but you simply chose yourself if you want bandos - torags DH and the color of your mystic set for example. 

Maybe not force the EXACT same set-up but SOME/MOST items need to be forced.

Or nerf high magic bonus because it's obviously overpowered and hits through any magic def bonus like a truck.

Tourneys need a full re work anyway or you could just make it ban able so people will start screenshotting/recording people doing it, I record almost every tourney I join and I could make a 10 minute + video of people using mage only.

Or just maybe try and fix mage... like I’ve been suggesting for months. 

That could be an option

What kind of rework would you like to see? Maybe have unlimted spells but once either of the players complains about mage only (via command) both players would get their spells reduced a lot?

No they're just missing  some items in the bank setups and they're very rng based, IMO I'd like to see tent removed from welfare hybrid tourney 

[repent]

Or you could just make mage slightly weaker

Mage bonuses don’t matter enough, if I’m in mage tank I feel like I’m just as likely to get hit on as when I’m in melee tank

mage seems way too random

it was good but a few weeks/months ago it was shit again

yeah it wouldnt stop people from using magic only, but that would stop them from having 3 way switches in a hybrid tournament + having more food on you

[Obby Pls]

or u just put a preset kit in hybrid tournaments with 6 switches 2-3 brews nd rest anglers.

Idk, ppl splash pretty close to what I'd expect on osrs when it comes to 120 magic accuracy or less give ior take if you're in full d hide for example. But after that, no amount of magic defense bonus matters. You'll get hit a lot. 

We've already went through this the last discussion on tournaments tho

From my experience Yh you do splash and catch a good amount but I don’t see a diffference between the hits when you’re maging a high mage defence or low mage defence 

[L1GHT]

give up you cant fix these tournys..

[Its Gorillas]

You don’t need to fix the number of casts available @Gretar

other servers have just used set kits with a balanced number of melee/mage items so that it isn’t worthwhile to only mage and it promotes proper hybridding. Its worked successfully on these servers

??? the only reason people win with mage only is because of all the mage bonus gear you put in, if everyone has the same gear for example serps, furies, climbing boots (?) in hybrid tournament it will be easier for normal brids to win

Weird. People always complain they splash on me a lot because i use full d hide and seers ring i often. Whether they're in ahrims or around 120 mage bonus or less. But when i put on anything better against higher bonus, it's helpless.

Okay thanks grinder

[Zoradz]

Could always reduce damage/freeze times from mage in tournies.
Either that, or just give them <100 casts in set kits.

[Smackd]

Banned? No 

Disqualified? Yes 

[Forecaster]

never any staff on during late est to kick people from tourny oh well
