I'd like to see an enhancement & reforging ability to the current armours & equipment in oldschool. This could also provide a revamp to the Smithing & Crafting skills. - hear me out

The ability to manipulate a small value of stats on current armour pieces, such as -1 to defence bonus & +1 to attack bonus or vice versa - scaling similarly to hunter traps with +5 being the max to a single armour piece & possibly a max cap total from multiple pieces.
Smithing & / or crafting level requirements can be set for standard & unique armour pieces -a BCP would have a much higher smithing requirement than a d'hide body & the required crafting level is needed for the +/- 1-5 modifier or vice versa.

possible inclusion of 'blueprints' :
with the required smithing & / or crafting levels, armour pieces could have specific bonuses unlocked via 'blueprints' gained from current & relative minigames / activities.
some skills I would argue do not require a bonus; cooking & firemaking as an example, however a small buff to a tiresome skill may be worth its time to acquire. An example (this is for reference only, scaling & ideas are from my 'not always on straight' head):


bonus to fishing
'blueprint' acquired via fishing (low chance) & fishing minigames (slightly boosted chances).

Example 'blueprints': +1 extra boost from dragon harpoon special attack (75smth/75crft), 1% chance at double catch (80smth/80crft), 1% chance to not use up bait (60smth/60crft), increase chances of higher tier 'clue in a bottle' drops (50smth/50crft).

Equipment choices: Angler's outfit / Spirit Angler's outfit / graceful / rods nets etc. / anything.
More proficient & related gear could provide higher bonuses from blueprints at cost of higher level requirements - Spirit Angler's full set may provide a 2% to double catch rate, but requires 93smth/93crft to apply.

NO COMBAT BLUEPRINTS- not needed. The idea is to gain more interest in skilling. So many ideas on this & not enough characters.

I propose that we have a poll that asks players if they would like items to be guaranteed to drop once they hit 2 times the drop rate for that item, afterwards it could continue to be RNG based. It can still be RNG based from the start so getting spooned is still an option. grinding something for months, hitting over 2x the drop rate and still not getting the drop you are looking for seems more like a stressful job then having fun. I could even argue that this idea could bring back some players that have quit to play a different game because it felt more like work then a game. This is just my opinion and i hope you take it into consideration and produce a poll so we can vote on it. I've thought a lot about it and i don't see how it could have too bad of an effect on the game. 2x the drop rate is still a lot of grinding for some items. anything more is just torture for any player.

Thank you for your time
sincerely, a guy that loves your game. This guy

NXT graphics for old school in the "non runelite" client.
If graphics would get that kind of upgrade in the official osrs client.
I would switch clients like "no time".

OsRs Gameplay with NXT graphics!

(Ofc) witch a switch between vanilla & NXT graphics. Thank you for OSRS, add a minnimap and a rest option. Then I will be fully happy with this game.

Odd little suggestion here that isn't really important, but creating an option to combine 2 "half a X pie" into 1 whole pie (plus an empty pie tin I suppose) as a QOL update. Just seems kinda silly to not have that option in my opinion.

Soulreaper Axe attack is interrupted if you select special attack but have 0 stacks. (Most often this happens when you have selected it at the end of a kill but it doesn't go off because the monster dies from some other means, after which all your stacks decay but special attack remains selected. Then when you go to begin your next fight there's an awkward missed hit. Change it so that combat is not interrupted and a standard attack takes place, so it is consistent with all other weapons.

Would love to see the Quest cape give the ability to re-play any quests (with no drops from the four bosses of desert treasure 2, unless the harder versions are instead fought). Just gives the cape a little oomph, and us quest enjoyers can go back and replay whatever quest without needing to re-create an entire account for it.

Hello,

I would suggest, for them future players, to change the materials used during construction contracts which seems just as expensive as the usual and much faster "i train in my POH method".

The contracts training method needs appeal.

If contract materials where given and free, but instanced like a minigame, thus can't be used for any other purposes, this would change it entirely.

The rewards, in return could remain about the same (material sack for more runs, and exp gear, and loot).

I think you guys should add a new quest in the kindom of misclania series to go with boating add your own boat to the island and also more stuff to do within the island. Kind of making it like a 2nd home maybe you could pay workers to go boating or to go do a slayer task. But anything more with the kindom would be cool and fun especially for the solo players.
