[Guide] The (Almost) Full Mechanism of The Combat Calc in inside.

To hell with Tip.It and their calculators...although they have the most accurate combat calculator there is on an unofficial Runescape website, but they won't release their source code. Well, although I know virtually none of Javascript, VB, whatever, I am pretty good at TI-83 Programming, so I am releasing what I have here and what exactly Jagex does so that our combat levels are what they are.

First of all, I think every single one of you knows that your combat level is largely affected by if you are a pure mage/ranger or a warrior. Your label is indicated by this formula:

If your magic/ranged level>[(Attack+Strength)/1.5], Then you are a mage/ranger.

If not then you are a melee warrior.

Now, most of your Runescape character's levels are determined by this formula, although some have exceptions,

Combat level=Attack*0.325+Strength*0.325+Defense*0.25+Hitpoints*0.25+Prayer*0.125 (For warriors)
For example, if you are a n00b just out of Tutorial Island, your combat level would most likely be 1 everything with 10 hitpoints, then your combat level would be (1)(0.325)+(1)(0.325)+(1)(0.25)+(10)(0.25)+(1)(0.125)=3.525
Another example would be Zezima, his combat level is determined by (99)(.325)+(99)(.325)+(99)(.25)+(99)(.25)+(99)(.125)=126.225.

NOTE:JAGEX ALWAYS ROUNDS DOWN ON COMBAT LEVELS.

If you are a mage/ranger, then your combat level is determined by this formula:
0.4875[Your mage/range pure level*(Attack+Strength)/1.5]+(Attack*0.325)+(Str*0.325)+(Def*0.25)+(HP*0.25)+(Prayer*0.125)

A follow up is coming soon(tomorrow)

um...this site does have a combat calc which i think is more accurate than tip.it

Dude, this combat calc has never reached 100% accuracy and rsbandb has the best acc.(no doubt) and definetely better than tip.it... plus rsbandb is trying and working hard to get their calc. to 100% accuracy... now respect their efforts

warior and mental got pwnt irl

I agree. It's sad that this woman/man/child (didn't check sorry) can use numbers with incredible accuracy to help a site tyhat you no doubt spend a plentiful ammount of time labouring over? It's sad that you use this site but will do nothing to support it.

Look mate, with those smarts you could be earning some decent digits. I and MOST appreciate your help but I think you'd be better using those digits to help us discover a cure for cancer rather than creating a calculator for a game that will eventually fade away, unlike cancer. PLEASE NOTE!!! I am not being disrespectful, I truely appreciate this guys valiant attempts to branch the combat calculator and to keep this site at the top. BUT, it would be better for himself to use those fantastic brains to help mankind or get a very well paid job.

And yea, Tip.it's calculator is slightly more accurate.

the actual calculation as I worked out ages ago is:

(attack * 0.325) + (strength * 0.325) + (defence * 0.25) + (hitpoints * 0.25) + ( [round down (prayer /2) ] * 0.25) -0.083

the -0.083 on the end is because people at level 100.0825 are actually level 99. -0.083 will make this correct.

hes supporting it by posting what he knows, and why such a grilling? hes only trying to help rsbandb with their calc and so many people sayng bad things.... if you havent got anything nice to say when someones put effort into sumthin... DONT SAY ANYTHING
