Wandering Demons and Monster Ambushes do not have drops and don’t count for Slayer Tasks.



So, I don't even need to go. The entire wilderness will be filled with this garbage because nobody will kill them.

The erupting prayer volcano was already enough to keep me out.

0/10 in advance, major nerf. My advice would be to delay this update and ship it off to Pipeworks for a remake.

Also didn't see any talk of the benefits for pvp. They said there would be benefits for opting into pvp. And the fact you have to be skulled at the start of your opt-in of pvp will turn off players who might otherwise be tempted. Leader of The Enemy ||

I don't see anything for skilling either. The only thing that ever chased me away from charming moths is boredom.

It's focused on giving more slayer and reaper points. That means I will be making even LESS money as hydrix gems crash to dust.

They didn't recover from double reaper weekend, and now they are doomed for the clearance aisle at Walmart.

i dont usually (infact never) agree with your many rant threads. but this one i do agree with i dont see what this update will do.

Op-in pvp is a major benefit at least for me as that'll pretty much guarantee no death runs for rcing.

Gotta agree here. The Wilderness is already bad but this update just makes it worse (except for the opt-in part of course, no PvP for the win).

Also, Jagex, let us use Invention to create a portable jammer to protect against the heat-seeking volcano rocks as well as a motion tracker to protect against the monster ambushes Pl0x.
It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.

Just saying, but there needs to be some risk involved with getting the larger rewards so if this were to happen it would be completely unbalanced.

I think most ppl here are forgetting the obvious fact that this is still the wilderness thus its supposed to be dangerous.

Op-in pvp is a major benefit at least for me as that'll pretty much guarantee no death runs for rcing. You already had no death runs for runecrafting. It was called altars. Abyss will still skull you. Abyss will still need demonic skull for max xp, which opens you to pvp. So Abyss will still be pvp. Leader of The Enemy ||

From a similar thread:

Original message details are unavailable.


So whats the point of opt-in if anything you do in wild pretty much will cause you to enter pvp?

Seems 100% redundant IMO.

Plus it wouldve been noice if jagex added said info to news post.

They didn't recover from double reaper weekend, and now they are doomed for the clearance aisle at Walmart. Skillers doing things like Charming Moths and Wilderness Agility are gonna be ganked by the environment(volcano) mobs(threat level) and pvpers(Demonic Skull) Talk about Fun!

Honestly aside from the graphical overhaul, this event sounds like shit. As a pvper, a pvmer, and on rare occasion a skiller. I have to manually skull myself on wilderness entry to enable pvp. I don't mind running around skulled when I'm attacking people, but I want some downtime from it if I'm doing other tasks. I don't want to be skulled 24/7, I don't wanmt to have to leave every time to enter or exit pvp mode. The fact theres no bonuses for being pvp enabled is just stupid.

Update just sucks from the gate. Leader of The Enemy ||
