God Spells ft Normal Magic - Make it viable in PvP?

(The following is referring to P2P magic)

To imagine that the three spells the Runescape Gods have gifted us with are going to waste is unimaginable. Currently apart from Teleblock I highly doubt many of the player killing community would even imagine using normal or god spells. Why?

Because there are a couple of vital reasons not to use it:
- Too many runes to use successfully, even with a rune pouch (Charge, entangle, Strike runes, Teleblock( unless you allocate teleblock to another individual, killing solo pking potential) )
- The damage output is massively swayed towards the use of Ancient Magicks
- The effects of God Magics E.G magic stat sap can easily be restored by potions
- Ancient magicks freeze and do damage (30+) at the same time. Entangle and firewave/god spells are two different spells and cannot put out the same damage atall.


Solutions?:
- Tweak the amount of runes you need
- Buff the damage, perhaps entangle does more damage?
- Buff the effects of God mage
- Nerf ancients

By the above solutions of course I'm looking for a balance in the issues of usability and damage output. I want an option of what magic I use when player killing rather than the choice being made for me.

Previously around the actual 07 era, being able to solo player kill or successfully use god spells was a massive feat and put you amongst the most elite in the game in PvP. Now with the release of items and bonus's you can use with ancients, god spells have been lost. It's a shame.

Can we change this? It's fairly annoying to have this unnecessary difference. I don't mind there being differences like the plateskirt but the same gear shouldn't have this much of a difference. Why would a monk have a crop top? (I know a girl wouldn't be a monk to begin with but that's beside the point.)

Would it be possible to add a way to restart back to tutorial island, so that accounts can become ironmen accounts even if they missed their chance while they were originally on the island.
I personally didn't realise that I could become an ironman account when I created the account otherwise I would have chosen to now I feel like I have lost my chance and I don't want to give up the account on old-school that is tied to my RS3 main account and receiving membership through that.
My suggestion is that the account is given a complete skill, quest and bank wipe if they decide to reset meaning that they would effectively start from scratch, this could be done through talking to the iron man tutors in Lumbridge.
often we have no time for out friends but all the time in the world for our enemies.

friendship is the golden thread that ties all hearts together.

For agility shortcuts that are have additional requirements, mention these requirements along with the required agility level. An example of this would be the Trollheim shortcut to the farming patch which told me I need a agility level of 73, only to be told that it also requires the hard Fremmenik diary, after obtaining 73 agility.

Can you change the clue scroll steps that require having a clue scroll item to complete? It isn't fair for ironmen to have to drop a clue because they haven't been lucky enough on clue scrolls to get the items needed, and it's just an unavoidable roadblock for them, and it just seems like bad game design

Or just stop ironmen from receiving those clue scroll steps entirely, whichever is simpler

1. Have hunter camo boost hunter levels invisibly to make it actually useful for hunting.

2. Not sure how small this is but what the heck, bring back the chances to get multiple attempts at skilling with agility.

3. Give void magic a slightly better accuracy boost so it can at least compete against mystic and update it's set effect by raising the max hit of STANDARD spells by 10%. At the moment the set has basically no niche because the way magic accuracy is calculated the set barely competes with any mid tier-high tier magic armor.

This is just a small but ideal suggestion that i have, shouldnt there be a Rest option for run energy to gradually be charged up to 100% again ? and making it interruptable by combat so that using this in wilderness wont be that usefull however it would be more ideal for players that cant afford stamina potions or energy potions.

Greetgins,

No.. I'm an ironman, and yeah, that sounds like it will be a major pain, but that's why ironman is a harder game mode to play. It's restriction we place on ourselves, they can't design the game around it.

Something similar to the private chincompa hunting grounds that skillers can access, as it stands hunter is one of the best ways we can make money for high cost skills such as con, but due to the amount of bots and the combat Req's to enter the private area we get screwed basically. We need one that requires a total levels entry or something similar! Even aside for the hit to bank, even getting to 99 right now is an issue. Bots in every world, black chins are worthless to hunt due to pkers for low levels.
