How will the new prayers affect pvp and lms? I think it's about time for new prayer and it makes game more variety, interesting, complex and challenging.

I think the game especially pvp well actually everything is too simple and easy. Easyafkscape you can call it. I'm not the only one, people have feeling it way before osrs release. The sheer simple leveling system where you just afk and do the same animations over and over again. Please I played plenty of p2p lms style pvp, BH pvp and F2p pvp. You see and do the same thing over and over again. You click prayer when you switch gear, then click on guy. Nothing fancy in the strategy.

With new complex, interesting prayers it will make someone think about their strategy when they pvp. I think if there are new weapons that change speeds, you can make pvp interesting kind of like league of legends. The calculations in league of legends is very complex, it has a lot of heavy math behind it. But in runescape, it's very simple, there is no strategy, it's whoever can spec someone faster or stack hits in f2p pvp.

You can try to put in new prayers new weapons with different attack speeds and specials so that skill cap can be high, and you have to switch weapons with prayers consecutively to win? That would be cool and different. You don't need action bars and button smash until you need a new keyboard for a MMO game to have fun pvp. Action bar games aren't even that popular anymore. You can still keep it old school while making the pvp more complex.

You can have like the best pvper odablock (idk if he is the best. I don't stay up to date on pkers and pvp) the only one to rapidly switch weapons, specs, new prayers in order to pk someone 1v1. It actually is very hard to kill someone in runescape and it has always been unless you get really lucky. It's not really skill based. NH is skill if you are gambling on outlasting but you can't really ko in this game.

if anyone remembers, actually killing someone singles and not multi with teleblock was actually near impossible that PLAYERS ACTUALLY HAD TO MAKE THEIR OWN PK RULES and have everyone abide by them. There are no rules that say pvpers cannot eat to full in singles, but players generally all agree not to "safe". That 4-letter word is probably the most used word in pvp LOL. Every noob has experienced this and they couldn't figure out why players would avoid them like the plague. Funniest thing ever.

I've done my fair share of risk fighting in f2p, and nobody dies. Same goes for p2p, if you eat to full. Watching a luck based risk fight is one of the most boring things ever. This is not how to showcase new players the pvp in a game where guys burn through tons of food and supplies to fight over 100 times and tele back so one guy gets some crazy luck KO. That is not fun. That has happened to me. You spend more time arguing who is safing than fighting LOL.

I was watching youtube videos of community suggestion and improvements and people on reddit pitch in ideas for new content. I was wondering why players are doing the work. Isn't jagex job to develop. I seen people write 50 page detailed plan and where is the reward for it. In cybersecurity, you get money for finding bugs for companies. There should be one for jagex also.

new suggestions:

New magic spells for pvp and damage.

New weapons and different attack speeds(this is important), and different specs.
There was combo attack in f2p where if you shortbow to scim to 2h in succession, you could kill because you could not eat the combo.
