Best Pure?

i wanna make a new pure. i dont think ill buy it members, just keep it f2p but i might one day.

whats the best pure to make? a few people have told me str + range? but i dnt understand why have both? could someone explain to me? and tell me wt pure they recommend along with some basic levels.

Thanks

+Rep for anyone with good advice.

If your gonna stay f2p, and wanna meele then id say
40atk
80+ str
1 def

What about range?? people have told me str + range are best way to go but i dont understand y?

so you can start with range, get em half hp, then rune2h ko

but then why not just be all range or all melee? like why not just range them all the way or melee all the way?

to suprise them..

but surely most people will know what your going to do..?

Just rune scim, then 2h if u dont wanna range

surely that would work better since it would be less combat lvls?

if u do the meele first then range, you'll get like no cb lvls but since
it seems like u wanna meele i would just stick with that.

Im not saying i want to melee. i just dont get why be range and str? why not one or the other tbh.

well if the person is protecting prayer u could switch and vice versa...

and range means you can have dhide chaps which is better defence bonus and better against mage :)

Yeah cuz mages hit good on meele armour.

well range2h means you do damage with maple+addy arrows, then switch for the ko.

it's the most effective way for non-members.

then if you wanted to get to members get 60 att for dds and crossbow basicly?

it's a lot more complicated for members.. some people just rush you will ddp and hope for the best, others get you with ddp then finish you with onyx (e) bolts which can do more than 40 damage

RANGE N STRENGTH

Honestly

Because you give the best combos for instance 16 with range and then a 26 with 2h.. you give some really good combos etc

That should give you an insight of the wonders of range and 2h

Also because range and 2h will give you an awesome HP level.. Meaning you will be indestructible
