Ninja Update – Responsive Combat
Originele tekst
Today's update brings a change that'll make RuneScape combat faster, more frantic and more fluid: improved combat responsiveness from the deadly and talented Ninja Team. Get into game, gear up and seek out an enemy - you'll notice the difference right away.As determined in a Player Power poll last year, we've also made a whole load of Gielinor's deadliest beasts aggressive, as they once were.
Read on for further details!
Combat Responsiveness
First, we removed the short delays between cooldowns ending and abilities triggering, and between clicking an ability and that ability activating. This means combat now feels more immediate and dynamic your actions translating crisply to those of your character in-game.
Note that we've increased cooldown times slightly to compensate for the quicker combat, so combat balance is unaffected.
As well as that, we've also improved target switching, so you can charge into battle with lethal efficiency.
Finally, if you're a Revolution fan, you'll find that your favourite combat mode kicks in and deactivates in a much smoother fashion.
There's no substitute for trying today's improvements first-hand. Log in and give it a go!

Vandaag zijn er door het Ninjateam veranderingen gedaan die het vechten in RuneScape sneller en vloeiender maakt. Daarnaast zijn verschillende monsters weer agressief gemaakt.
Responsiviteit combat
De kleine vertragingen tussen het einde van afkoelperiodes en de activering van ability's is verwijderd. Ook zal een ability direct worden uitgevoerd als je hem aanklikt. De afkoelperiodes zijn, om de balans niet te verstoren, wel een klein beetje verhoogd. Je kunt verder nu sneller tussen tegenstanders wisselen.

De volgende monsters zullen je weer aanvallen als je langsloopt:
- Lesser demons
