Original message details are unavailable.
These are some places that i would like to lodestone to.

Zanaris
Sophanem
Neitzenot and Jatizo
Miscellania
Mos Le'Harmless
Uzer
Daemonheim
Dorgesh-Kaan
Piscatoris fishing colony

Zanaris: use your Dramen Staff or fairy rings
Sophanem: Magic carpets
Neitzenot and Jatizo: Soon to be Relleka loadstone, Lyre, chipped Relleka POH teleport
Miscellania: Ring of Wealth, Miscellania teleport, Fairy Ring
Uzer: Dominion Tower amulet, Magic Carpet, running
Dmaemonhiem: Use your ring...?
Dorgesh-kaan: Good idea.
Piscatoris fishing colony: Phoenix Lair teleport

Most of these locations are easy to get and already have good teleportation ways. We don't need lodestones for those.

A lodestone to Canifis is the bestest

Thank You for updating the lodestone! More easy access to slayer masters and slayer dungeons, also please dont't make it have any requirements/quest rewards, so everybody can use it, even low level!

Oh great, another EasyScape update that panders to the lazy player.

Please give the new lodestones quest requirements, task requirements, or building materials to construct. That would be a good compromise for their existence. Runescape Forumers Discord Server

why does everyone dislike this update? i'm sick of having to use multiple items for transport (staffs, amulets, rings, bracers, teleports, loadstones) just to get to places.

This is a great update, we already need to spend too much time completing quests and grinding to 99 in skills, this is a great update.

I wonder how the wildy one with work, if it would be close enough to bring more traffic towards rune running making it more convenient for RuneCrafters.

To be quite honest, I believe that lodestones are a great idea, but I don't think they should be free. I think that the Lumbridge lodestone should be the only free lodestone, as it has been that way for years. However, I believe that a good thing to introduce would be "Charging" lodestones. A player can bring up to 10k law runes to store in a lodestone. Each time a person uses a lodestone teleport, a law rune is used up from that lodestone. The player would receive a notification in the chat telling of how many teleports they have left for that particular lodestone. To check how many teleports they have left, they can right click on a particular location and click "Check Teleport", or something to that extent.

Introducing this idea could be helpful in several different aspects.
- For one, it makes law runes more important once again. Because of the current lodestone network, law runes are relatively close to pointless, though there still are some good uses for it.
- Second of all, this would help some of the community not feel like lodestones are a completely free network, and that it would actually cost someone to go there. This could help reconcile both sides of the community by giving more lodestones, as some people want, but making them cost something at least, which would bring the other side to rest, as it would no longer be a free teleport across the entirety of Gielinor.

Please take this into consideration. The only downside that I can currently think of is that there would be a spike in the value of law runes, at least for a short while.

Cheers!

How did this even become an update for runescape?

Do JaGex not even think before implementing an update anymore? Micro$oft did the same thing when they thought it would be a good idea to remove used games and make it so you had to connect to the internet once a day.

Why add something/remove something that worked perfectly fine beforehand. They have made magic an obsolete skill its only good for the highest level spells.

I never found myself complaining because i couldn't get to an area. I have teleports to all important places in my house and a tokkul-zo to get to fairy rings.

This 'update' is just for players who are too lazy to do quests/don't know that you can get around runescape with a handful of items.

InB4 you get J-Mod like abilities in runescape, can choose your skill levels/items that your runescape character has.
