Skillet? Skill no.

So much moot.

Id make summoning so that we had no pouches..

That we took the charms and the other items to the obelisk to train and get xp.

Then like prayer ya just turn on ur familiar.

No shards or pouches at all.

Cheaper summoning.

I'd also allow a range or weapons an other items to be enchanted with summoning so that when special is activated, familiar special is also activated. So.... Ya have a "legend of within dragon dagger p++", when u click the special ddp does ddp special and steel Titan special too, from one click.

Make it so sum tank purrs can not enchant weapons so no special attack for them.
Skillet? Skill no.

So much moot.

Let me pick on the Rune Dragon in particular here. Imagine how ridiculous it would be to have to get killed TWICE in PvP. What if you just had an inventory of Rune Dragon pouches? I don't think even a ban from PvP like we did with the trident could be enough because it would still be rough in PvM.


It drains all your summoning points. Before you argue summoning potions (which would probably be added along with this), summoning was changed to work like prayer, so no pouches (BTW, I thought of that myself, though in retrospect, it wasn't the most obscure and crazy idea ever, so I suppose it's not that surprising that this guy thought of it as well.)

Support!


I think I mentioned it but there wouldn't be Summoning potions to prevent abuse. In order to summon again after your points have been drained, you have to walk to an obelisk to recharge.

So this means the Rune Dragon would get you ONE extra chance and then you're on your own after that.

Not only that but I also posted this on Reddit where Mod West told me he liked my version of Summoning and if Summoning would ever come into the game, this version would be it.


Still a ridiculous proposal. It'd also devalue Karamja Elite in the Inferno and Fight Caves.

Not to be the guy who spams shameless self-plugs, but my version does not have a revival familiar.I figured that this thread's creator might wish to mingle ideas.

Lol, that's still the most absurdly broken concept. Besides, warding is better anyways. I take it everyone's happy with it.


You wanna explain how? Because it takes a single bullet for you, then that's it. You can't summon anymore. In PVP, this wouldn't even matter, it'd buy you 2 seconds of time to eat food, then you'd be screwed again.

My problem with Warding, is that its boring. It feels too "safe" as if they just went with what would be the least inspired and inoffensive skill idea. There's zero creativity and the "lore" behind it is plain dumb. Like, is sewing not a thing in Runescape? This skill, in its entirety, feels like it belongs to the crafting skill.

Summoning on the other hand, would bring someone genuinely new to do into the game. Its unique, creative and with a little work, can be balanced. If we are getting ANY new skill, Summoning or a similar creative and new skill would be the only ones I'd accept.

Animal Husbandry was one skill idea I was particularly psyched about. Give me more of that and less of boring stuff like Warding.

Yeah this is where it ruins the game.

Skilling then PvP should always be priorities over assisting those that PvM.

Support.

I'm not really convinced by the other arguments by the opposition. "Because it'll mess up the combat system?" I don't really understand that.

Summoning was introduced in the Old School era, albeit not 2007. Back then, Summoning was quite popular and I don't recall it being divisive on the community.

I think we should at least have a poll on it.
