Suggestion:
Add the ability to imbue an abyssal lantern with repair charges for essence pouches. It will then repair your pouches automatically outside of Guardians of the Rift until it runs out.
Requirements:
Abyssal Lantern
95-99 Firemaking
80 Crafting
67 Magic
Lunar diplomacy quest completion
1 charge = one cast of NPC Contact
2 gold bars
Redwood Pyre Logs
Description:
I’ve been playing a fair bit of Guardians of the Rift lately as I’ve started the runecrafting grind, however it feels a shame that the Abyssal Lantern is only useful within the minigame.
Adding a charge system to the lantern fits in with other items such as the rings endurance/elements, without massively skewing things the way free repairs would (like in the minigame). I would propose to keep the cost per charge the same as Contact NPC, given that’s how most people are repairing pouches anyway I assume. A balancing factor there is needing the full rune cost vs being able to use a staff if casting manually. Likewise, the requirements for NPC Contact such as Lunar Diplomacy and 67 Magic would remain.
With the recent firemaking updates, it would fit nicely as another small reason to train the skill up.
All in all it would be a potential quality of life improvement for Runecrafting, but not one that spoons the skill.
