Maybe remove the cash required to unprestige

and where is it confirmed that there will be a cost to begin with? last i read they were just thinking about it as a way to stop ppl from flipping back and forth


It's not confirmed. I'm saying it might be a good idea to not implement it if people don't like it or feel it's unneeded.

I'm also becoming increasingly annoyed at those calling the ones that vote "no" stupid, or ignorant.

I read the blog as soon as they posted it, I've given it thought over the past few days. At first I wanted it SO badly to be implemented. But then I sat down and thought of all the positives and negatives. I voted no because the negatives - for me and my friends - outweighed the positive. I've posted why I voted no, I also supported posts that furthered my opinion.

For you to call me stupid for taking an educated vote - that's rude.


And where does all of the negative stem from exactly? Think about that for a moment and if it clicks you'll realize that calling no voters ignorant is very justified.


In my opinion it's only selfish if people just vote 'no' because they won't use it. If you really have reasons for your own why you wouldn't like prestige to be implemented, then feel free to vote 'no'. I think i speak for most of us 'yes'-voters if i say that i have no problem with 'no'-voters who really have an argumented reasoning.

(Bumping this up a bit)

It seems that what most people are complaining about is xp past 99. It would be better if, for example, if you prestiged with 50M xp, as soon as you hit lvl 99 on prestige 1, you would jump to 50M xp immediately. But if it required, for instance, 60M to reach 99, they would stay at 60M xp when they get 99.

Maybe remove the cash required to unprestige or be a small-ish number like 500K, add some cool Prestige Skill Capes and Prestige Max Cape if you get 99(s) again, and it's be a great update.


If skills are to go up to 120, exp rates will have to be as high as Dungeoneering, or at least 500k/h. That would mean 200 hours to 120 (100M xp), not that much considering the current xp rates of Agility and Divination.



DONT MAKE ANY REWARDS OR CAPES TY


Are you talking about powerful capes or cosmetic capes?
I don't want a better cape than comp cape. I was talking about cosmetic capes, hence the word "cool". If people are pressured to get these worthless capes it's their own problem.


My problem is that it needs to be possible to get the best cape.

With this update thats IMPOSSIBLE , it's just sick if this happens.

People want the nicest cape, for the health of the game and the PLAYERS this may not happen!

Hey everyone, I already made a post here, but i started to think about it, and wonder why I was so keen on saying NO to this update. And it's actually quite simple :
It's just not good enough.

Sure you could reset all level 99s and continue prestige, but it will cause more problems than do it good. It looks like a high level new option, but actually it will influence the newcomers to this game greatly.
What is currently not appealing to newcomers is how USELESS the items are that they create. You made it to making your own Amulet of Strength? Congratulations ! Go add it to the pile of 2498734287654 other amulets we don't use because HA HA we're higher level than you.

When I think of prestiging something, (and not completely undermine the fun of being a low level, instead of showing them they have to first suck it up, then get to the good stuff, and then realize they want to suck it up again twice as hard,) , I think of an extra way to give a challenge to higher levels.

So why not combine the two? Is it so hard to create a prestige system that would for example ask 5 strength amulets to create a new just improved version of it? (or trimmed for my part) This will make the demand for the amulets themselves and ACTUALLY MAKING THEM a LOT more rewarding, rather than adding to the infinite pile of redundancy.

And what if those improved amulets were to be only able to be made at the end of the line, at 99? They would attract new players by showing we actually need them to continue our journey, rather than keeping them at a distance. Or pretend we're one of them. Because we're not.

But guys don't forget that the reason we play this game in the first place is so we don't feel like a number in a highscore. It's because we feel we contribute to the whole. And that has been lost ever since grand exchange came out.


I agree

Nattie, no reason to get defensive you said the negatives heavily outweighed the positives, I'm sure if you explained to us what those are, people would be willing to respectively engage in conversation, no reason to get defensive

We're just curious what the bad is

Idk if any Jmods are still reading this thread.... but my one concern is my untrimmed mining cape. I have it keepsaked. will i still be able to use and wear this IF i decide to prestige my mining? or will i not be able to wear any of my 99 capes once i have prestiged it until my level shows 99 again?


I think it was said in the other thread that prestiging does not limit your ability to wear skill cape or comp capes.

Then by that same token, the "Yes" voters are ignorant. Maybe the "Yes" voters should reread the Dev - Blog and Q & A...maybe there is something you missed or are not clearly understanding. As you can see there is no reason for name calling. We are all entitled to our opinions and are justified in our beliefs for our own personal votes.

There have been a lot of player suggestions that would make this new system work, but instead jagex left it up to a poll. This won't make it better. And I don't much enjoy you attempting to insult my intelligence, miss.

i have been playing rs for a while now and i believe this whole issue and discussion over prestige could have been avoided. Iff you guys from jagex would listen then you would know that in my opinion the mayority would have said don't do this,intead raise the skill levels to 120,130 or even 140 or higher so it would be competive. In my opinion its not a bad idea to add prestige but high lv players will defnetly say no because the dont want to lose all the effort they put in the game to reach 200 mil xp in a skill.

Prestige isnt a bad idea but why not let players who are maxed and then start over again give a higher prestige then a player who has a lot less xp instead?
this is what the problem is and high lv players deserve to get a higher prestige lv because they are the ones devoted in this game.
you still can use a scorelist: instead of the prestige they have just rank players with the highest xp after they reset the skill.in this way everyone starts at 0 xp but the high lv players get a higher prestige instead. this way prestige could work and all players get the same change in the scorebord.

thats why i say no for now but if its been changed i wil defently say yess.
