Good afternoon!

As a player with some visual disabilities, Necromancy rituals can be a bit challenging.

Others have suggested instancing the ritual site, which would be tremendously helpful (fewer visual distractions).

The "sparkles" from the shambling horror event are almost impossible for me to see because they're small and the same color as the tiles they appear over - an option to make them much larger, and a different color, would be very helpful.

The same is true of the sparkling glyphs, although these aren't as bad because the sparkles are large and the visual effect is pretty obvious. I can see them, but someone with more visual impairment may struggle.

The deathshead moths aren't too bad because they don't despawn, but an option to outline them or make them a different color (purple maybe?) would be helpful.

The wandering spirits aren't bad, although a chat box notice when they show up (along with the other distractions and diversions) would be helpful.

I haven't gotten high enough spirit attraction to do any of the other ritual D&Ds yet, but if anyone else is having similar challenges with them, please chime in and make suggestions!

Thanks!

I'd definitely support this, or at least an option to hide other players while a ritual is in progress.

I didn't even know there was a visual cue for the shambling horror - and again, all the players crowding the ritual site doesn't help. Yes, this definitely needs to be made more obvious.

I'd make them larger. I have difficulty seeing them myself, so I don't know how someone with a visual impairment will ever find them.

I believe this is on the to-do list for Jagex.
