In RS3, absolutely. RS3 is an entirely different game with completely different combat mechanics. The fact that BOBs are no longer used on everything in RS3 doesn't invalidate the logic at all, because they WERE being used for everything from the time the skill released until the release of EOC. They were a problem for the original combat system and design philosophy of the game, which OS is still using.

^Thats clearly false as theres loads of ppl who agree here. The problem is, while they agree on wanting the skill, the people do not all agree on what they want in it.

Not sure why this thread was brought back from the dead.

Ok and your point is?

Sometimes ppl just have to deal as this is literally proving my point.

Everyone wants updates to be stagnated just because they want to limit what jagex can/cant add to the game.

I'd be super on board with the dev team taking a deep dive into summoning, fleshing it out so that fits today's osrs gameplay. Maybe they get rid of pouches and focus on spells as OP suggested, maybe they keep it the same. Or what if they made it so that pets provide some utility after a certain summoning level for said pet? Not only would a pet be a cool cosmetic drop, but something more to show off and utilize its rarity and level requirement. Maybe they add mounts via the skill. Whatever is announced with summoning, if they announce anything at all, I'm comfortable knowing that it'll be polled to the moon and back.

It's literally better than every other skill - Did I mention it's objectively the best skill in the game, because it is.
Summoning is a garbage skill. You can lug some extra items around, have lousy healing or even lousier help in combat. It is worthless. And that it the correct objective opinion.

Yeah, let this pipedream die.

There are already too many easy ways to play this game... If it were up to me, trees would still break your axe and you'd have to go to Lumbridge to fix it.

There is literally a minigame for half the skills or more in the game. Give it a rest.
