Hi Team,

Due Desert Treasure II boss dropping raw fish, it feels like raw fish don't have enough value and not worth training fishing. Is possible to remove or make drop rarer. Even when sailing comes out fishing won't be useful.

Unfortunately, this is a zero sum game, robbing Peter to pay Paul, scenario in the crumbled OSRS economy. I really don't see skillers getting any love. Skillers aren't going to make any reasonable impact in the game, so I think the best thing they can still get is more relaxing, chill and skill content like Forestry.

Yes, but is not like they don't have item for boss to drop. rather raw fish or skiing resource they can have dropped rune item for same value, which would be alched by f2p player etc.

hopefully they will update it to drop less or replace with another item

Why would jagex do anything to reward skillers and not reward pvmers since they only care about pvm and pvp.

this helps ironmen a lot.

and also helps with lyre (i) (turtles)

so no ty


Not to be that guy, but Tempoross made getting turtles for lyre(i) easy enough.

Don't get me wrong, though, I do agree with your sentiment and the message of this post.

This is the thing, really. The only way to not infringe on skillers through new boss drops, is by making the boss solely drop cash. I don't think that's an interesting drop table to interact with, and it will probably introduce a whole host of other problems I can't oversee right now. I'd say there needs to be a balance, but the way Jagex is going about it at this point is not the right way I think.
