Dragon dagger. 4 specs, can be poisoned, costs 30k in ge and a spec can take down maybe 350-350+? That's an overpowered weapon that costs less than 40k.
But back on topic of free trade and wildy, the old wildy sure had a bigger thrill to it. If you say, "I was in the wildy." nobody cares because it's relatively safe. Back then, it was an accomplishment to **** out of the wildy and have survived. The wildy is meant to be a risk, if you can't accept the risk then you don't have to go into the wildy.
@FredUp
He could stick on black dragonhide and you'll likely splash even with barrage. If you splash which is likely, he'll reach with ddp and if his attack and strength are high, he could slaughter you since you're wearing robes which have very little defence against melee attacks.

@Fred-Up:
There's no point in arguing about the /potential/ future style of PKing just yet. I'd prefer the PKing you seem to dread over the current system anyday. People will adjust.
Besides, for those looking to kick it back and go classical: F2P PKing has always been a fun alternative. Even for a horrid PKer like me, F2P Wildy was the thing.
Might as well let it play out and see how the Wildy feels a few months after it returns, let the dust settle. Then if we DO have some major OU weapons that are just devastatingly unfair, Jagex could easily look at them in a case-by-case basis... though that might harm the Wilderness again.

What made the game fun was the fact that it was unpredictable when trading or in the Wilderness. You had to be prepared for the worst, and hope for the best. I know I've said it a lot in my past couple posts, but if I could some up what made Runescape fun in one word, I'd say "Thrill!"
Thrill is something the game has been lacking since 2007. No matter the end result, at least your heart started pumping a little harder and you got incredibly engaged. You enjoyed (whether negatively or positively) whatever the experience was.
We need more of that.

i agree since wildy and free trade were removed back in the day they have dumbed down this game so much that it should be renamed spedscape lets not forget merch clans free trade to them is like sunlight to a vampire not hearing anyone rejoice in what free trade will inevitably do to mercher clans
