My questions are:

1.When did you decide that you would add another level of clues/rewards and how long has it been in development?

2.Were there any items that you were going add as rewards but decided to leave them out. Can you explain why?

Hello,

First off, I love the new TT updates and have had many enjoyable hours doing them.

Anyway, as I cannot be here on Tuesday, my question is as follows:

Are there any plans for introducing more TT rewards that have more than just cosmetic applications to the game? I mean the bows and third age armor are great, but I guess what Im getting at is are there going to be more weapons and/or armor released as rewards anytime? And if so, what would be the rarity of these items? By rarity I mean will they be super rare, like 3rd age, or like the god armor sets that are "rare" but not super rare?


Anyway, great work and I love the TT updates.

Also saw you worked on the Impetuous Impulses Improvements. I just wanted to say I loved those, and they are partly why I got 99 hunter :)

I want to know why it is so hard to tell if a clue is a certain level just by looking at it. I'd like to be able to see if a clue is level 3 or level 4 before I even pick it up.

I'd like to know why when I get my treasure trail reward, it is often not in a casket, so I have to end up picking up several items off the ground if my inventory was too full to hold everything.

I wonder how you ensure an item is as rare or common as intended, and if anything is done to ensure over time all players will have a fair number of decent rewards, instead of some players getting high value items possibly often, while others only ever seem to get lower value items all or most of the time.

Thanks.

Edit: Impetuous impulses is among my favourite content in runescape. I was so glad the xp was (imp)roved for catching implings to make them a viable method of training hunter, and new implings and loot are always great.

Are there plans for new types of implings, say perhaps a genie impling who gives out xp lamps of varying amounts rarely, and maybe genie costumes and other items from looting the jars?

How about more herbs and herb seeds from nature implings?
Will impling loot be updated?

I hear zombie implings may have a monkey skull for making a greegree, but just how rare are they? Why can't we store greegrees in our player owned houses, by the way?

Is it true implings won't carry impling jars because they don't like to be caught? After all, usually they carry items players want, and we want impling jars.

I've never seen a champion challenge scroll, are they perhaps too rare?

Stealing creation is fun and useful, I liked it better when we could get some xp in skills there, but I see why you don't want that to be the main way to train.

The skeletal Horror is truly a horror, I am not a big fan of hard boss monsters, but I'm sure some appreciate it. Completing the bones list was fun however, so I'd like to see more things like that, just without the hard boss monsters.
Hi.

i would like to see a number on the clue scroll to indicate the lvl. eg: "clue scroll 1" "clue scroll 2" "clue scroll 3" "clue scroll 4" makes things a bit easier when in battle. i only do lvl 4 or so called "elites" now so would be a nice touch.

just my 2 cents worth

Hey Mod Maylea, a few questions concerning another of your projects the Champions Challenge:

1. Can you confirm that the final number on our banner carriers banner is going to be XXX? Looking at the space on the walls behind the thrones under the champions guild, this seems to be likely.

2. When are you intending to release more champion scrolls?

3. Is it already decided what monsters will be dropping future scrolls, or will this be decided later on?

4. Can you give us any hints as to what monsters may be dropping champion scrolls in the next batches?

5. Do you know how many people have defeated all 15 champions so far, and is that something your willing to share?

6. There is currently a list of players who have obtained the XV banner maintained by a player (thanks Ghanburi :) ) on a fansite, but it would be great if the amount of champions defeated was shown in the hiscores. Do you think this will ever happen? Could you make this happen?

Thanks in advance.

Hey just one thing first i agree with scimit it is sometimes difficult to determine what level a clue is.

Also i just want to say Treasure Trails are there for enjoyment. I did a level 3 clue today, 75k reward tbh not the best. But i had two puzzle boxes and i really enjoy doing them. It was a valued break from my slayer task, and gave me time to relax and unwinde after the stress of repeatedly hopping worlds.

Everyone likes a good Reward, however i would like to see more puzzle boxes and similar type puzzles in lower level Trails.


And Keep up the good work.


Thanks :D

Hmm, my only question would be is it possible that F2P could get Treasre Trails? I'm not trolling or anything, but make uniqure ones to F2P, this intern will make F2P more enjoyable when you run out of membership and for pure F2P?

Some ideas of rewards:

Bronze-Rune items: (1 item per each reward)?
Money(gp):100-10,000?
Food: lobster, ect.
Expirence lamps?
logs: regular-yew
amulets: unchared and charged?
green d'hide armour?
arrows: bronze-addament?

I don't know I just wanted to give my opinion...
I could care less if this was put into the game, just an idea?

Edit: This of course would need puzzles, and only F2p areas...

With the 100% treasure trail based items per clue, and more items was added with the elite clues, does that increase the chance at the higher end clue rewards (such as 3rd age for level 3(hard) clues)or is it the same chance as it was before the elites were released?

Also will there be a change to the clues to where the clues maybe look different for being level 1, 2, 3 or 4?

And will there be a way to have more than 1 clue at a time? as long as it's like an elite and lvl 1 clue at the same time or something, not like double elites.
