living2die3:
You have said PvP mechanics will be returned as they were in the wilderness.
Are you therefore returning the ability for multiple persons in a single area to pile a person in a nearby multicombat zone? it is an essential mechanic for pking around the runerocks area! It was never removed from the FFA clan wars portals so its clearly not a bug? Its critical to runerocks tactics, a smaller team can take on a larger team using tactics not sheer brute force.

Mod Fetzki:
We are not changing the mechanic, so yes, you will be able to do that.

living2die3:
You have said 'popular pvp items' will not be lost and you will be able to run back for them.
I would just like confirmation that this does include the fighter torso, firecape and defenders. If it doesnt it needs to!

Mod Fetzki:
We have NOT said that, it is incorrect. All untradeable items will be lost on death (if you were skulled) and we are convinced it makes the better system rather than leaving the winner go with empty hands because they were fighting someone with only untradeable items.

living2die3:
Are you going to be balancing some new items for use in pvp?

Mod Fetzki:
We were well aware that some items had too much power, that's why we introduced damage soaking therefore there are no immediate plans to rebalance any items.

If you guys are against bots then why have you removed player methods of stopping them such as mithril flowers at the ge or marker plant on dungy banker? Why do you guys not do more updates like wildy wall to catch bots?

Mod Fetzki:
There are things planned but psssst, don't tell the bots ;)

Aparlo,
“if you double k.0 who will get loot?”

You both do, each others. Course, you have to get back there first. ; )

Trebor115,
“When entering the wilderness, will you be instantly skulled?”

No you won’t.

“When you are to present items to a player, will it desplay the market price at the bottem of the trade menu?”

It’ll be the guide price that you’ll see at the bottom of the trade menu.

“Will the wilderness agility course be moved?”

Nope, it’ll still be there.

DRK Kenny,
“I have one question is there a chance of you making some old school pk worlds (just like 5-10 worlds) where you can't use the new weapons/prays/summoning? Thanks”

We don’t have any plans for that tbh. Sorry!

Am I A Noob,
“Could u also make it so that a player can be penalized for teleporting as well? Like maybe in a high risk world? I am very tired of fighting people only knowing that they cannot afford to risk and just wanna use up all ur food then teleport if they cannot defeat you. ”

There’s no plan on that right now but we know that some of the techniques used to run away from battle aren’t particularly sporting and so we’ll be having a look at that in the not too distant future all being well.

PenguinzRgay,
“Jagex, will there be any future updates to The Grand Exchange, possibly turning it into an auction house where you can see the names of people and their selling price, or would it use up too much memory?”

There are no plans for that right now but personally, I like the idea =)

Jayman1990,
“How are the mechanics of the new/old wilderness going to work? Can I attack whoever I want to or are there still level restrictions?”

There’ll still be level restrictions.

Jarkur,
“Q1: Why Jagex planned to take such a big *risk* for bringing it actually back? as it was one of the biggest reason for causing RWT to actually happen?”

Hi Jarkur, I’ll be your mod mark for today. :P Because we’re in a position to be able to do it given all the work we’ve been doing and also, very importantly, because it’s something that the majority of the community clearly want.

Master Frake asks:

If my beast of burden expires will the items it was carrying be lootable by other players?

Yep, if you leave it on the ground it’s fair game.

Hi guys,

And that's all the time we have today. We had 1081 posts each with several questions per post so hopefully you understand why we've not been able to answer every question.

Hopefully you'll see your question already answered in the answer thread but if you didn't and it's a great question, hopefully we'll answer it over the next few days when we comb through the thread with a fine toothcomb!

It's a shame that we couldn't answer as many question as we'd have liked (it's always the case!) but I love that the Wilderness's return has so many of you desperate to know more.

Thanks again guys, have a wonderful rest of the weekend!

Hi everybody,

The Wilderness and Free Trade update is finally here.

I'll be updated this FAQ with any common questions we get, that haven't been answered already, or any information we think is important to you.

To start off with, here is a segment from the Newspost about Gravestones and some changes we have made since this FAQ;

* Gravestones will still appear if you die outside of the Wilderness.
* Most gravestones have had their timers doubled.
* The recently released royal dwarf gravestone now lasts for 15 minutes.
* All acts of blessing and repairing gravestones have had the cost reduced to 0 Prayer points.

GoldParabola asked;

"I noticed the faq didn't do a whole lot to comment on this in particular but did mention that all quest areas would be made safe, but I just want to clarify if you are moving the locations to go at for this part of the quest rewards along with those locations or not. I realize there were always revs before, but wanted to double check before going off on a wild goose chase. "

Mod Mark H;

These haven't been removed from the Wilderness but the XP rewards have been increased. If you have already claimed your XP reward for each portal, you can go back to obtain the additional XP remaining.

More information on how much XP each portal gives can be found in the "Spirit Beast's Lair" entry in the Game Manual.
