I personally like divination a lot. I was wery sad that jagex ruined rcing with runespan. it was the only skill left that was unnerfed and you could show off your dedication and patience with the rcing skillcape.
Now I feel that this skill gives the same opportunity. I hope they will not change xp rates because of the lazy whiners without persistance. Seriously why do you guys even play if you don't want to put any effort into it?
Just go get cooking skillcape and leave divination to the persistant people
This skill is a little bit different compared to other gathering skills. You can process the memories you collect and make different kinds of stuff out of it like portable trees and mining rocks. If you look at it this way, it's more a support skill rather then a gathering one.
You can also make many more items.
The skill is easy to understand and doesn't require a lot of attention. The xp rate goes up every new wisps/springs you can collect and you can make boons to increase your xp, which I think is a nice idea. A little bit more xp won't be bad though, e.g. when turning memories into energies.
It's also a social skill. Every world only contains 1 location for certain level wisps, which allows you to meet different people while training the skill!
If the Fremmenik were against creating runes because they thaought it was the power of the gods and that only the gods should use it, what would they think of Divination, actually using the energy of a god?
Very awesome work with the new skill as a whole! It should be even more awesome to see how it progresses with other updates, as well as alongside the second skill

Just your friendly neighborhood team player.
