Players have a gambling instinct, that's why a team can go kill bandos 100 times in one sitting. They're all hoping for a nice drop that has a certain rarity. Skillers don't have that opportunity so it attracts a totally different type of person. If you want to do a repetitive task with the potential of getting an adrenaline rush, you have to pvm or pk. My suggestion is to bring this into skilling. When His Lordship was prepping to go to Jagex, I asked him to bring this up with the OSRS mods. My idea is to add a fungal forest near Canifis. There could be one location and it would have several types of lower fungi requiring various woodcutting levels to chop or farming levels to harvest. After a team of skillers has cleared enough fungi, they would gain access to the mother fungus which would need to be chopped down and the roots burnt. The smaller fungi could have a chance of dropping seeds, herbs, logs, or small piles of coins. The mother fungus could drop better herbs, logs, etc and noted mort myre fungi. There would also be a rare chance of receiving a necklace that give the wearer a 20% chance of receiving two of an item when skilling such as: chopping logs, picking allotments/herbs/fruit trees, mining, fishing, hunting, etc.
The submit poll idea button doesn't appear for me.
