There's a fantastic game for you, where the combat system (and skilling system, and banking system, and boosting system, and anythingsystem) won't get screwed by summoning anymore than it already is. Have a peek at legacy servers in rs3?


Summoning didn't screw up RuneScape.

OT: Support, I love summoning type characters in other games as well. I used to have a long-term goal to max a summoning tank when EoC came and ruined it, would love to give it a go again.

Btw, summoning would also add a brilliant money-sink(shards).

I support Summoning being added into Old School.
Of the possible aspects of this skill that I would want, only these matter to me:

* B.o.B. (Terrorbird/War Tortoise/Pack Yak, as examples)
* Skilling familiars (lobster/ibis/beaver/etc)

Nothing that was released after 2008 for Summoning, just the original familiars that were came with the skill upon release in 2008. Spirit shards are good as a money sink, as 'Borgas' stated. We should absolutely poll this, so if the majority truly is opposed and doesn't want it, then that is what will happen and I'm fine with it. Give this a chance to be determined by popular vote!

Sorry, but Summoning was one of the worst skills in the game. It was designed to be the gold-sink, quintessential combat/skilling support skill and failed at it. The only way I would want this skill in OSRS is if Jagex were to overhaul it and remove the gold-sink aspect.

No more having to buy shards. If we need shards, then let us make them. After all, if we're supposed to eventually become master summoners, wouldn't we learn how to make shards? Also, some of the reagents are just ridiculous to get or just ridiculous to even be a reagent.

Sorry, but I absolutely hate Summoning, and if Jagex really considers implementing it into OSRS, it's going to need a smarter, more effective design.
Here, I'll give you this strawberry if you keep it a secret!

Summoning is an interesting skill. I liked it back in pre-eoc, but I felt it was pretty overpowering when it came in bossing and skilling with all the perks of the summoning creatures. Again, I always like to mention that OSRS does not have to follow the exact path as it did back in 2007 and further. OSRS should consist of new fresh ideas rather then past content. Forum Help ||
