This skill was suggested when OSRS was still "fresh". Might not been the best time to suggest a new skill so early. I strongly believe Sailing would be a success if it were suggested a few years later instead. People were still actively joining OSRS, leveling up their skills and exploring the nostalgia at that time. Attempting to add major new content to the game at that era especially a new skill was a bad idea. Vote was 68%, almost passed the 70% mark. Lots of love

Bump Yes we need this, and alot of players voting No are being Salty regarding a new skill that has been asked for since the BEGINING of this game.

The majority of players have wanted this and there is a small group that might not for unknown/invalid reasons (Except the few who may just want your dev team to focus more on another update)

We need this skill, it needs to be PVP enabled, it needs to be fun and is needed in OSRS in 2022 PLEASE

This IS the update you need, when we were kids I remmeber EVERYONE talking about how much they wanted this skill; It IS a MUST!

I could definitely see potential for a skill like this, but some questions:

.How do we reconcile it with teleport spells?
.Will free-to-play players get to try it too?
.Would it be similar to construction where you could make your own boats and customize them, like a mobile home? Imagine being able to make your own galleon. Klarense can keep his smelly stolen Lady Lumbridge.
.Will there be NPC boats we could board and pillage?
.What would be available to do on these boats, and how do we stop them making construction useless?
.How do we make sure this skill doesn't make the world feel smaller? Do we expand the map?
.Can the boat be manually moved like the player? Does navigation have to be done manually?
.What rewards are there for this? We have Motherlode for mining, Blast Furnace for smithing, Abyss for Runecraft, Trawler for Fishing, Warrior's Guild for Combat, etc etc. Considering a lot of resources are not too difficult to get/grind yourself, how do we entice players to go sailing instead?

the skills that already exist in runescape already have their needs for changes and repairs.

Now bring something new to give more trouble and work to the team of developers.

You can make improvements to existing kills and current gameplay to make the game more attractive without having to create something new of this level.

Every week it's update after update.... it's time to stop a little, breathe and look inside runescape with more affection and zeal.

There is much work to be done on what already exists.
