Pking Tips and Tricks

There are many guides out there teaching you how to make a pure, where to train, what stats to get, and other stuff of that nature. However, are there any guides out there that teach you how to PK? A level 50 can kill a level 70 if the 50 is experienced and the level 70 has none, even if the 70 is the "perfect pure".

Friends are Fun: It is always best to PK with a buddy or two. In my opinion, I think PKing in a group of three is best. In a group of three, you can easily kill someone, and there's enough loot to share.

Tree hugging: This is essential to survival. This is kind of hard to explain, however, I will try my best. Tree hugging is when you are being attacked by many people, and want to get them to stop attacking you for maybe, two seconds, just so you can eat.

To tree hug, people must be followingattacking you. You then must go alongside a tree, and then go to the side opposite from where your enemies are on that tree. If you did this correctly, then your enemies should be stuck behind the tree.

For example, let's say you are on the west side of a tree. The people attacking you are one step directly south of you, hitting hard on you. You can then eat a lobster, then walk to the square directly north of the tree. If this works, your opponents should be either where you were before you tree hugged, or directly opposite you, on the other side of the tree. I hope this brief description of tree hugging helped. If you have any questions, post a comment, I'll try to answer it.

Hit and Log: It's an attempt at getting no-skull people to skull. For this you need a buddy. Both of you should be using the same weapon. Stand next to the victim. Either you or your friend can hit and log. This makes it look like the other person hit them, and the victim will hit back, making him skull. This rarely works, however, it's worth a shot. The chances of this trick working are increased when both players have similar names. Example: O O r4ng3r and O 0 r4ng3r.

Range-2h combo: This is deadly. This combo makes two hits appear at same time, making it very effective if you're going for the KO. Say you hit a 15 with range, then you switch to 2h and hit a 25, that's 40 damage! You can do this combo by ranging someone, and when they're at low health, you quickly switch to 2h, right after you hit them with an arrow, and then hit them with your 2h.

Food Potion: Heh... I couldn't think of anything better than the name of this tactic. When people eat, there is a delay in between bites. You can not eat 10 lobsters within a second. You can't even eat two. However, you can pot and eat a lobster in the same bite. This saves valuable potting time.

and your lvl?
#14 by TREEHUGGER, Jun 20, 2007
To answer your question qwark28, I have a f2p "Monk-Tank" ( and no .. its not TREEHUGGER ), it has 99 deffence, 99 prayer, 99 mage( lvl 1 - 99 curses + camelot teleporting so you won't level your hit points thus maintaining your combat level) and 1 of every other skill, THIS IS MY TANK ACCOUNT! This account is the greatest for treehugging in varrok wildy, i am able to tank over 4 players and i have video recordings of pking varrok teams single handedly.
#15 by TREEHUGGER, Jun 20, 2007
If you want to practice treehugging( AND BE GOOD AT IT ), i suggest you create a tank. You should be combat level 20 with full rune ... yes... including plate armor ( There is a way to kill the dragon . . . ) and level your prayer high enough to defend from various situations. Then choose magic as your primary attack since its a multi-functional skill which serves for binding players, powerful blasts, teleporting, and other uses.
#16 by TREEHUGGER, Jun 22, 2007
Well quark ... The easiest tank to make is a "Protection from meeele-mage-range" mon-tank. The reduced damage would be almost equal as if you were wearing armor, and you loose NOTHING if you manage to die. My suggestion is .. go to edgevile and buy bones from people killing all those level 2 mans near the bank ( world hop and hire people ). You will be around level 20ish with protection from meele! Then you decide what you want to do ... Perhaps train your attack from 1 to 5 on the varrok dummies (so you won't level your hit points )and raise 99 strenght to become a steel scim pure?! lol ^_^
#17 by TREEHUGGER, Jun 23, 2007
Sorry for the spelling, And my mistake... You won't be level 20 with 43 prayer ... you will be around level 6 combat! WITH 43 prayer. Enjoy! burrying 10k bones!
#18 by qwark28, Jul 12, 2007
lol itl take years to build tank and where the hell will i find bones if i dont fight n lvl up?
