I remember the curses as a guilty pleasure... overpowered as hell, and cancerous for the game, but it was kinda fun (at least for a little while) ripping through hordes of monsters at light speed never having to restock.

It's unquestionably EZ-scape content, and the more I think about it the more it really seems like a mistake not worth repeating. Honestly, it's not worth marketing / developing content to try to attract 2012-era players as the only runescape they ever knew was an addled, cancer-stricken dying version of the game.

The mistaken notion that the purpose of this game is to replicate Pre-EOC runescape remains wrong - developing content towards people who already expect gobs of free xp and content that practically plays itself is a surefire way to ruin the game. Again.

I no longer believe that anything with ancient curses as a reward will ever pass a poll. Even if there are sound arguments for nerfed versions of them, the mere mention of them will trigger too many people into voting no.

BUT I am happy to support Temple at Senntisten without the ancient curses as a reward!

I'd be fine with the quest as long as curses weren't a reward. I thought curses were just too good. Nerfed versions wouldn't pass because people wouldn't pay attention to what's actually being proposed, and would just see "curses - nope". Same issue that, say, Summoning has. I can imagine some ways to fix the issues that most have with Summoning but it would never pass because people would just see "summoning - nope".

The question would be, what would replace the curses as a reward?

What about yes, but without ancient curses as a reward?

Full support. I liked the quest.

Support but through a different spellbook and with a new quest maybe?

And maybe less op than they used to be before?

I don't mind the overhead prayers as they only are different in look wouldn't mind the drain prayers aswell, soulsplit little less op and turmoil etc aswell couple % less in offensive stats as they used to be! :P
