Lack of AI behind monsters in Runescape

An article about lack of difficult monsters in Runescape. Almost every boss monster can be quite safely soloed if you know how and have sufficient stats and equipment. The only exception being the Corporeal beast, which is not smarter but simply too powerful to solo.

I agree with author, Jagex has been trying to fix the situation for years. They kept stretching the limits of what boss monsters could do, trying different attack styles, defense options, locations and support casts. But it looks like that only successful option so far was the "blunt power" one. Which is not fair :-)

What I'd love to see is change/improvement in AI for Runescape monsters. And not just boss monsters. Imagine guards teaming on you in multi combat areas when they see you being unarmed, imagine thieves actually stealing food from you and running away, imagine revenants following you all over the wilderness and using different attack styles based on what armor you wear. Just think about it! Wouldn't it be nice?
