I agree with the majority, but here are some things I don't agree with.
- Corrupt Dragon now lasts for 1 hour and only degrades while fighting
Corrupt can't be saved as it's only worth it when PKing. And F2P PKing is dead because of EoC.
- F2p gets access to Broad Arrows & Bolts as tier 55 ammo with requirements adjusted to 55 Ranged and 5 Slayer
Broad Arrows & Bolts are very specific Slayer items and should remain that way. F2P should get a different kind of T55 arrows.
- Add in gravite crossbows (either 2H or mainhand/offhand)
For which purpose other than cosmetic? We already have Gravite Knifes.
- Change the Tome of frost and the Anti-poison totem to pocket slot items, remove the stats and just have their passive effects apply.
As long as tokens are refunded, infinite water runes isn't very useful especially not in EoC. Certainly not worth paying 43K DG tokens for.
- Allow free players to use bonus experience
Hell no, the pure F2P XP competitions are the only ones that are still fair as people can't buy bonus XP.
- Introduce a t55 power body as the ranged equivalent to gud raider armour (they already have a sighted magic shieldbow, so they won't need 1h + shield)
I'd rather have somewhat complete armour sets (helm, body, legs) than just bodies as it looks very incomplete. Jagex should look at T55 armour in F2P in general and make it complete.
- Introduce a t55 magic wand, shield and power body as magic equivalents to gud raider armour
We just had Gravite Wand, should it already be devalued by buyable non-degradable weapons? The power body will also devalue Battle Robe Top even more.
- Corrupt black dragon and elder items are introduced as ranged tier 60 degrade to dust
- Corrupt Grifolic items are introduced as magic tier 60 degrade to dust
Corrupt is too expensive for PvM considering the minor advantage armour gives, and PvP is really dead. Although I like things being equal, this would be a waste of time.

I'll go for analysis:
- Corrupt Dragon: I think this is a necessary change as it is way too limited to be used on a useful way, it could make it at least somewhat appealing. Degrade on wearing is just one of the most asinine mechanics in here and it can just be good for the game if they'll get rid of it.
- Broad Arrows/Bolts: Well maybe - my intention behind them was adding a money sink, as well as not creating just another redundant item - note in here I don't restrict ammo as much as real items in general. On the other hand you made a fair point about it... I could imagine now some reworking, as GWD2 has opened up more options to design equipment (i.e. more accuracy at the cost of damage). I'll take a look into it later, as I try to keep my perspective on those topics as up to date as I can (but that wouldn't be a quick fix
- Gravite Crossbows: Those should be added to have a Best in Slot weapon for a style that currently lacks it
- Tome of frost / Anti-Poison-Totem: Those are currently mostly useless items, that could get some use this way -> it will be a more wise choice to buy them after this change than it is now (also don't forget there are members as well, which will benefit more from those effects. Totem is p2p only anyway afaik)
- BXP: I think it just would be consequent as you can also obtain them in game (outside of just MTX). Maybe more opinions on that?
- Gud raider equivalents: My intention in here just was to complete that set of equipment (f2p melee has gravite degrading and gud raider axe nondegrading, ranged has sighted magic shield bow nondegrading and gravite bow degrading...). I personally don't think gud raider does fit as it is, but it should be balanced at least
- Corrupt equivalents: I've put them in an experimental corner for a reason, as they will take more time to design compared to just change some values (same thing with gud raider and new t55 ammo btw).
Thank you for feedback
