I'd like to see a tweak to the set effects of some barrows armor to make them more useful. Here is a possible idea to consider:

Karil: Has a random chance to poison the opponent. Damage starts at 6-10. If the player is under the protection of an anti-poison, the effect will remove 30-60 seconds from their remaining protection time. (Damage and effect can be polled.)

Torag: Has a random chance of lowering your opponents current Defence level by 10%. The effect can drain no more than 5 levels per activation.

Ahrim: Successful magic attacks have a chance of lowering your opponents current Strength by 10% and binding them for 10 seconds. The binding effect does not stack and there is a grace period of 2-3 seconds between consecutive binds. The stat-draining effect can drain no more than 5 levels per activation.

Not sure if this has been suggested yet but I thought it might help a bit while at GWD at least. Since Graves came out shortly after the release, our items had that little extra protection, the was no garantee you'd get back in time or that anyone would even bless you, especially when doing so costed prayer points and a high prayer level, not to mention you had to trust that someone would do so.

Now I'm aware that many people are against gravestones and while I'm a bit unsure of where I sit on the matter myself, I had another idea that could be an alternative. Instead of holding the items on the ground for you, we would make use of those higher prayer levels, and without releasing curses =p Of course these new prayers could only be used outside of wilderness and would be of relatively high levels; for example level 85 and level 95. At level 85 we would unlock the ability to protect an extra '2' items, and at level 95 there would be another prayer; 'Protect extra three items'.

This could be done a few different ways, also depending on whether we would want both or just make one lvl 95 protect extra two without there being a protect extra 3.

-There could be separate prayers for these levels. 85; Protect extra two items. 95; Protect extra three items. (cannot be used simultaneously)
OR
-Upon achieving these levels your level 25 prayer would automatically protect as many items as you have the level for, but only outside of wilderness. (Inside the max is still 1)
(The above options would have the slowest drain rate)
OR
-Each level would feature an identical prayer, and so in order to protect an extra three items you would have to activate all three. (This would drain slightly quicker as the drain would stack, but it would still be fairly reasonable)

I believe as a high level content that these would be reasonable rewards, while giving us high level prayers, without introducing curses and without introducing gravestones. Because you would need the prayers active.

Going to keep this short and sweet.

Could it be possible to allow cannon to function in the Dagganoth Lair.

To assist against the Dagganoth mother in Horror From the Deep.

As i'm 10 hp 1 prayer and fancied a challenge and it was usable in the Lair in the live game around 2008-2009 because i've done it before.

I'd imagine it wasn't that much of a big fix and would be awesome :)

Thanks

A few ideas of mine; please note I haven't read any other posts yet so these may be similar if not the same as others have posted..

1.) Smoking Kills (Quest) - This would bring back the Slayer Helm and possibly Strykewyrms, new slayer tasks, a inbetween Slayer Master; as well as give the people who enjoy slaying something to work towards. Also rewards for making or getting various items, such as Slayer Dart spells (let's face it, RuneCrafting Death Runes is such a drag..) to gaining the ability to fletching Broad Bolts/Arrows (Also a way to drain some of the money out of the game)..

2.) Bank Tabs - I'm a guy who loves to organize my bank; it becomes very frustrating when I can't find what I want when I want because I have to scroll up and down through a huge bank, and when I do, it's in a spot where it could ruin the rest of my bank.

3.) Achievement Diarys - This is huge, and a very debatable idea as it makes alot of things beyond easier, but it also requires higher skills to abuse what it gives you.. Such as the Ardy Task set makes farming so much easier; from farming to recharging your prayer points and the Varrock task set making Smithing(Smelting) 20x faster

4.) Summoning - I know this one will probably get shut down before people even read this; but hear me out, when Summoning first came out, there wasn't that much bad about it, it made Hybridding easier, it made PvM easier, it made Slayer easier - perhaps it's not as bad as people think, as it still drains money out of the game and will require a bit of time for people to get high enough level to use the good BoB's such as Steel Titan, Pack Yak, Iron Titan, Unicorn, Wolpertinger..

I'd love to hear your feedback and what you all would think about it

With 2007scapes bank system it's a big hassle to locate single items that are not stacked, or items that have managed to lose them selves within the clutter of junk you have managed to collect within the short months of Old School being out. With Poll#9 being voted on right now for GWD and a Bank Update, What if we voted on bringing EoC way of Banking to Old School? With item searching, quick banking, and the biggest part. BANK TABS. Just a suggestion! Feel free to leave comments, rants and rages!
