Yeah, I didn't like how it seemed Jagex are still undecided about Slayer to a certain degree. Even though I'm not very enthusiastic about raising existing skills to 120, I think they should stick to the plan announced at Runefest and just go ahead with this.

I've already started work on Slayer, got over 20m experience since the announcement. If they cancel this at some point in the coming months, I will not be happy.
Completely agree. You can't have a nightmare if you never dream

That being said, theres absolutely no way they're going to release the content in such a manner, and im sure we'll just have some new monsters with some basic mechanics and then they'll drop shit.



And if they release monsters with advanced mechanics, no one will kill them.

Jagex's opinion sways too much based off 2k total retards on reddit, 120 slayer would be good for the game.

A massive increase in drops and GP being created, mostly by people that don't want to be doing it in the first place but are grinding it out before the content is even out just so they can retain their cape. Seems like time well spent.

For me personally I would be extremely upset. Especially if this is primarily because a bunch of current comp capers are too lazy to go out and get 120 slayer. Would be a sad day indeed if they cancelled it. "

If they backed out it'd be great tbh. We need more variety in our comp requirements and not rehashed content. With that said, i don't mind it at all, as i won't even bother with it at all. It's a really dumb requirement.

If they go through with it, it should be a requirement.

But in my opinion, it shouldn't be extended in the first place as there is a high probability that there isn't a reason for it to be. Just look at what you're questioning, an extension not even significant enough to be undoubtedly worthy of being a completionist requirement.

We all know Jagex do not fully overhaul old content, they either completely obsolete a method with the introduction of a new, which lets be honest, will result in nothing more than an afkfest..or they look to cut/remove/underwelmingly incentivize a portion of it. If 120 Slayer isn't going to introduce players to a greater experience/new take to the slayer skill or the skill itself doesn't contribute towards any other progression than a number, then it's not necessary and time could be better spent elsewhere.

Making any skill 120 is pointless if the goal is to make it more elite, rare and exclusive. Everyone will get 120 slayer within a couple months and its right back to square one. And then what when Jagex go to add more shit in a year? 150 Slayer?

Content just needs to be balanced in how fast stuff comes into the game and level should never be any part of the equation.

Also if we have to have it, it would have been nice if it was added along side invention so we dont get the market supply of everything fucked again.
