Changes to Hitpoints

[Aliensvortex]

As you may know, RuneScape recently removed the term "hitpoints" altogether and replaced it with "Constitution" and "life points", the latter being a new way to calculate damage dealt and received (10 times "old" hitpoints), and the former being the name of the actual skill. This has not actually change the combat system in RuneScape, since you're just dealing 10 times more damage to enemies which have 10 times more life points.

As a result of this change, we've now updated all the monsters in the monster database to reflect this change, as well as updating the content in several of our guides and items. If you still see the old term being used anywhere on the site (or the old number having been multiplied by 10), please let us know in the forums!

It's a little difficult to get used to but hey, I can see why they made the changes.

On the combat calculator it still says

To reach lvl #, you need either:
# attack or strength levels
# defence or hitpoints levels....

Change the hitpoints part

It'd make a lot more sense if they put a decimal point after the 2nd digit, so it was then, for example, 12.3. Although I guess that'd be kinda ugly.

[Mr Freeze]

Bad update, I hate big numbers ughh. It was fine as it was.

I'm getting used to it. But it's not fun being damaged more often. Pointless update, just another sympathy for newbies.
