Indeed we're stepping into a dangerous area, and with that there a multiple ways to kill an enemy.
There are plenty of examples where skillers do not have to directly engage in fighting the enemy. Troll Invasion is one such example. Something like this would allow access to the base content.
If Jagex wish to lock higher levelled content, or more rewarding content, behind combat, they can do so at another stage. But to leave skillers out completely is where it is wrong, in my opinion.
Please don't confuse this thread as being a rant about limiting ourselves. If that was the case, I would be ranting about Prifddinas till the cows come home. I am merely pointing out that an update directed towards skillers in fact locks those skillers out of the content - and not for the first time.
I personally don't care about more rewarding content. I simply would like more diversified methods of training, even if those methods are worse than those I already have access to. Give me access to crap rates, and lock the better rates behind combat, and I won't complain.
As for using other accounts to experiment on, I have one account and one account alone. If I'm not certain about something, I simply don't do it.
