Can you fix PVM-ing around the entirety of the trailblazer league worlds like you did for god wars bosses? The people with the recall relic have taken over the pvm bosses in a way that you cannot get a reasonable chance at killing. I've been trying to kill Cerberus for my task to get a smoldering stone, and i can do about 4-5 kill trips and then I have to run back. By the time I get back to the boss, I have to spend another 15-30minutes hopping worlds looking for an opening to hop back in. It's getting ridiculous, how am I or any of the others who chose that relic supposed to get any of the uniques from Cerberus or any other boss?

Not to mention, a core mechanic of Cerberus, (the ghosts) are being cancelled out because they teleport out, and then come back in to avoid having to deal with the loss of prayer/health. It gives them a big advantage as they save supplies that they can use for other bosses.

My proposed change would be to make the relic teleport them back into the room with the Key Master in it, and completely reset the boss so as to avoid the ridiculous amount of farming and make it a used specifically to get back to the boss after they've ran out of supplies. Or to make it so in the Trailblazer Leagues, Cerberus is instanced for each player.

Can the heraldry banners be fixed?

Players use to hold them upright, but now they are held in a default position where they lean forward. It doesn't look very good. I want to display my Guthix banner with pride and tears. :'(

Increase the number of hellhound spawns in the Wilderness Slayer Cave. Currently, there are only 5 hellhounds roaming around this area, which is lower than most of the creatures that dwell in this cave. Considering they are rather low hitpoints, it often happens that you almost if not entirely run out of hellhounds to kill while cannoning them. I would suggest upping the number to 7, so that they are on par with the amount of Greater Demons that reside in this cave.

Also, why is there this strange outcrop on the north side of this area near the hellhounds? One of the Hellhounds always goes here as soon as it is his by a cannonball. It seems like a rather pointless area of the cave. Road to max ongoing!

How about adding skilling pets to cooking, fire making, herblore, fletching, rune crafting, crafting, etc.? With the grind required to level up, a pet would be a nice surprise. Maybe a mouse for cooking, a phoenix for fire making, a book worm or frog for herblore, a white dove for prayer, a black crow or raven for rune crafting (though with the time it requires, maybe a sloth would be better), a bull for crafting, an eagle for fletching, or whatever comes to mind. Seriously, the grind gets old and at least some sort of possible pet reward may help with the tediousness.

One word: Adventurer's log

I remember there being chat about it in the beginning of OSRS and it was too big effort back at that time, but the game has evolved a lot and things like boss counters are now built into the game. Therefore I'm bumping the topic and asking Jagex Moderators whether it would be possible to develop now.

For those who don't know: Adventurer's log would be a webpage similar to hiscores, but instead of being limited to current status of account, it would list 10-20 recent achievements of given player. The following is an imprecise example of what it could include without graphical layout.

Player: zezima0000000

Milestones:
11/16: Adopted General Graardor Jr.
11/16: Killed 21 General Graardors
11/16: Completed the Monkey Madness II Quest
11/16: Achieved level 82 in Runecraft
11/15: Completed Hard Achievement Diaries in Varrock
11/15: Achieved a skill total level of 1900
11/15: Achieved level 95 in Slayer
11/15: Slayed the Goblin Champion
11/12: Obtained loot: Armadyl Crossbow
11/12: Killed 12 Commander Zilyanas

I believe something needs to be done about flat packs. Firstly, an auto make (like with other crafting/smithing tasks) could be implemented to facilitate a Simi afk construction method or at least a less click intensive method (to reduce carpal tunnel in getting this 99).
Additionally the value of these items should be looked at (at least from a realistic perspective). A teak armchair high alch's for about 6 gold. This takes 2 teak planks to make. Teak planks alch for 300 each. The teak logs alch for 18 each. So essentially from the world building perspective, if you cut 2 teak log, have someone cut them into 1 plank each (coating 1000 gp) and then create something with it, you have reduced the value by 600%. --Jordath Fil

In Trailblazer, can blamish snail slime be added to Gerrant's inventory in Port Sarim? For those of use that unlocked Fremennik before doing Heroes' Quest we are no longer able to get the one free blamish snail slime from Gerrant because the quest is auto-completed. Unless Morytania is unlocked the only way to get an oily fishing rod is to get blamish oil as a 1/512 drop from a few Rellekka NPC's. I doubt this drop rate was improved by the relics which makes it a really difficult barrier to making and using extended (super) antifire potions for all of the dragons that Fremennik unlocks.

Alternatively, can the drop rate of blamish oil in Rellekka be improved by relics?

I would like to see Group Slayer come back, was very disappointed when it was removed from the game. My friend and I really enjoyed doing group slayer together. Please bring it back soon, I hate to see exploiters ruin the game for everyone else.

Can we poll THE GREAT ORB PROJECT.

-It will be great minigame for those who wants different training for runecrafting. Many osrs player use to love it and community was small but loyal.

I read and really liked this suggestion on reddit:
https://www.reddit.com/r/2007scape/comments/jxneva/if_jagex_released_leagues_as_a_conventional_game/

"If Jagex released Leagues as a conventional game, similar to Breath of the Wild, or how any other company that regularly releases a new title yearly, I would totaly buy that.

The game doesn't even need to be released as a title regularly, following an approach similar to how Super Smash has done it, with a release once in a while. It can also be done in an yearly fashion, where Leagues 1 is released one year, Leagues 2 the following year, and Leagues 3 a third year, and so on.

As I am not too sure about the number of people playing this regularly, I guess one negative aspect to this would be that in the long run, each title release would have fewer players that play it, but that is also kind of the beauty to it, since everyone are playing as an Ironman, and have to to some degree play the game in a selfsustaining style. One could also look at it from the perspective of having one year or so to play the content of the game, before another title of the same genre comes out.

I am not saying that this is 100% the way to go, and I do not know if the "single-purchase of a game to own" is a good model, but this suggestion is meant as an supplement to the main game, and not to replace it. From the consumer perspective, I would love to own a specific version of a game, knowing I will be able to play it 10 years or now from now (similar to owning a PS2 with GTA), if I feel like i want to."
