You're just using it wrong. Magic is not to used to RuneScape Gold be used as Range or Melee. Range and Melee only hit one target at time, while magic (using Ancients), may be able to hit multiple targets simultaneously.
To show similarity, i'll employ an analogy. Magic is similar to a real nuclear bomb. You wouldn't use a nuke like you would use an Ak-47, now do you? It's not like using a nuke to hit multiple objects simultaneously to destroy them, but an Ak-47 is employed to target people.
It's the most popular method used by magicians to end up dead. People attempt to apply Magic as they do Range and Melee. In reality, this isn’t the best way. You make use of your advantage by hitting multiple people at once. If you repeatedly attack an entire group of players, it's likely that you'll be able to kill them fast, particularly when you use the Ice spells.
Another thing I've seen used rarely is full Ahrim's and shadow spells. When you do this it is likely to reduce the enemies Strength and Attack levels to zero, making them ineffective. After the stats have been reduced smoke and ice can be used to poison them and prevent their movement.
There is a problem with dragonhide. This is where the meleer throws black d'hide and is invincible to magical forces. This problem would be solved by ensuring that all melee attack statistics were reduced to 50. In addition I can't think of any other solution to this issue. That would be the price of magic. This is a problem which I'm not sure how to solve. If anyone has suggestions, please let me know. Magic is like a nuke. You can use a nuclear weapon to kill a lot of Buy Old School RS Gold people. It's not just one person. Magic takes more skill that can be achieved through melee or range. Mods Please move this item if not in the right section.
