Melee vs Mage vs Range (PvM RS3)
« on: March 25, 2014, 05:35:23 am »
So I'm having a hard time deciding what combat style I should use to PvM with... I've been told Magic is OP but others tell me Melee is better and all this other stuff so I'm here to ask the pros of RS3 PvM. What is better when it comes to bossing Magic, Melee or Range. Please explain why its better and what gear I should look to get etc. Thanks in advance friends.

Depends on the boss...

No point meleeing Armadyl.

Some bosses have weaknesses, some don't.  Depending on funds a level 90 weapon of a worse style is probably better than a level 80 weapon of a better style.

It's all situational.

If you take GWD for example, it's pretty much melee all except range Arma. Mage also works at Bandos and Zamorak if you're not tanking (don't see why range wouldn't either). Just look at their weaknesses and guides on RS Wiki, it tells you everything.

Thanks for the replies friends. Now since everything is situational which bosses are worth doing these days for the best money making/profit?

Zammy/Sara have mage weakness.

I solo mage zammy and it's easy.

Well QBD is pretty worth for money, but If you want to PvM with a group it's more fun and profitable to do Kalphite King or Nex
