Would it be possible to make followers after defeating a champion scrolls for their corresponding monster. It would be nice to obtain something tangible other than a soundtrack. I know they have them in live and i'm not sure how much work this would be.

I think a little revival of the Champion's Challenge minigame would be a great way to introduce new or improved content to the game.

The current drop rate for a challenge scroll is 1/5000. They are dropped by Imps, Goblins, Skeletons, Zombies, Hill Giants, Hobgoblins, Ghouls, Earth Warriors, Jogres, and Lesser Demons. As you could imagine, collecting all 10 of these scrolls (at a 1 in 5000 drop rate for each of them) would take very long. Not to mention that on top of that you have to defeat the champion of each scroll to actually get a reward for it. There are special rules when fighting the champions, each champion has a different rule when you have to fight it. For example, the Imp boss you can not use any special attacks, the Hill Giant boss you can only use melee attacks, the Lesser Demon boss you can not have any armour or weapons equipped, but can only have items in your inventory, ect.

Currently as it stands, defeating Leon D'Cour (the final boss in the Champions Challenge, fought after defeating all 10 challenge scroll bosses) rewards you with 492 hitpoints experience and 492 slayer experience. Yes you read that right, after receiving 10 scrolls with the drop rate of 1/5k and defeating all the champions you get nothing more then a few thousand slayer and hitpoint experience. (You get XP from killing each boss, ranging from 160 to 592 slayer and HP XP for each kill)

What I'm getting to here is that the rewards for doing this are non existent. Could it be possible that finishing all the challenges could reward you with a very useful item, tradable or not. This item could reward you with teleports, or even something better. The reward could also contain perks granted to you, similar to the rewards of achievement diaries and certain quests. If those don't seem suitable, at least have a small useless cosmetic reward, like a chance at a pet, (very rare drop from defeating Leon) or a hat, cape or some other equipable piece of clothing or armour.
Strive for Greatness.

Let me start by saying i have played runescape since 2004. One of the best features in the game has always been free to play pking to me and all my IRL friends that have started the same time as me. Back when dungeoneering came out i hated the skill TBH, but it brought updated weapons for F2P for a little more excitement. There are a few things i would like to mention that could bring a cool update to F2P pking and F2P in general without reducing the chance for people to quit paying for membership and just keep there account F2p

Let me start by mentioning, every F2P pure i have had has always been a member for better training and more to do, I am only talking about updates to make F2P pking / pvp better.

1. Add a F2P BH world with possibly reduced rewards ( granite equivalient weapons)
2. Add some F2P resources in the wilderness
3. Theres Yew trees in F2P worlds, why not yew short bows??
4. PVP world for F2P (this idea would work so good because all the over crowding)
5. Smite / Retribution / Redemption for F2P (Maybe when the New Kourend prayers are released add these older prayers as a update to F2P)
6. This is a huge one... TELEBLOCK and SNARE !!!! (tele block fell short on a poll by 1%)
7. Mage is extremely under powered, Adding wave spells to F2p would bring back mage into the combat triangle at mid levels, because right now Range/Melee > mage.
8. Poisons and Recoils (recoils i think should be added, poison would also be something good to make the combat a little more exciting)
9. Add the Rest feature for F2P and P2P
10. Spiked Shields / Spiked Vambraces / Metal Gauntlets / Combat Boots

Most of the features were in place for F2P Before 2010 , this is Runescape 2007 + 4 years of updates , so technically this is runescape 2007 + 4. Members has had SO MUCH new content released, let free to play get some for people like me,
the ones that pay for members, yet only F2P pk.
it wouldn't effect peoples membership choice, only there pk styles.

Maybe enlarge the click area of 'Jump over gap' on broken bridge in Gu'tanoth...It's hard to find! 'Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.'
