Poll Suggestion:
Remove duel arena and replace it with actual content. Perhaps a new minigame/skilling boss. The duel arena is a hiding spot for bots on most worlds, and a scam central on the main duel arena world. Most players are tired of duel arena. The duel arena is quite a large area. Obviously some clue steps would need to be redone, as well as other things, but this should be trivial to update.
Here is my idea for new content in the place of duel arena:
Ancient Ruins - Location of new runecrafting skilling boss
Because this area is already the location of mta, placing a runecrafting minigame here makes a lot of sense. The area would be stripped down and replaced with various ruins of previous runecrafting altars, destroyed ancient stone monuments, etc. The NPC's roaming would be reanimated stone golems. An ancient wizard would transport players to the minigames location.
As a rough idea for the minigame, players would mine bits of stone from ancient rune altars (same as current runes, except that the altars would feature the ancient text inscriptions for each rune rather than the current names). These bits of stone contain trace remains of the ancient magical power, but must be infused with magical power to be used to combat the boss, a giant stone golem. Lower level runes are mined quicker, easier to infuse, but deal low damage. as the rune levels get higher, the time to mine and infuse greatly increases, but so does the damage. in addition, players can use a chisel to craft the stone blocks into multiple runes, which will increase points earned per game but produce the same runecrafting experience. runecrafting experience will be gained when infusing the stone essence blocks or crafted runes. the peak potential for runecrafting experience per hour should not exceed traditional methods, rather provide an alternative form of training that is more immersive.
This is a rough idea, and i welcome community feedback, additional ideas, and more!
