With all the QOL changes coming to barrows I thought this could be another feature that would help improve the barrows experience. Adding instances to the individual barrows crypts and the chest room would be great, I often find myself hopping worlds to find a barrows world where there are not a lot of players because it is a nightmare killing a barrows brother with 10 other ahrims in the room. It makes it hard to focus on prayer flicking, especially if you are an ironman and using the hilt to preserve prayer. Making the crypts and chest room instanced would also make sense lore wise; there shouldn’t be 10 ahrims at the same time, or 7 Karils. It would reduce the frustration having to hop worlds to find a less populated world to do barrows and since other players can’t attack your target anyway it just makes sense for it to be a solo experience.

i dont really see this being needed. we arent fighting to get the kills with another player. thats what instances are for is to stop that.

rarely see a full crypt with lots of players killing the same barrows brother. even if there was it will be less than 30 seconds on that rare time

not sure if you are talking about rs3 or osrs, but it's rare for me to find a world where there are not at least 2 players in the same tomb. It would be a nice QOL addition if i didn't have to worry about running away just so i can see what i'm attacking in the crypt.

I think the solution could be as simple as just hiding other players and the npc they are fighting in the crypts, without making it instance based, there is no reason for them to be visible anyway. You can't help other players kill their brother, the doors are randomized for everyone who enters the crypt and it doesn't make sense for multiple of the same brothers to be present on the screen at the same time anyway.
