Unlocking the boss.
I'd love for some sort of quest to be used to introduce the monster, it doesn't have to be summers end but something that explains the introduction of the monster.
Similar to nex, I have another idea for unlocking the area it lives in, because the cave is in the wilderness, the new wilderness bosses could drop a key or part of a key to enter the cave. This would make sure those bosses are still killed and would make killing corp a greater challenge, or at least an expensive one if the keys at tradeable. Although the key should be rare it should give the player a lot of access to the cave before it stops working.
So it'd be interesting to have a small quest that you need to complete, which then gives you the ability to access keys or something to unlock the cave, then you can kill the beast.
Drops.
I never really had a problem with the shields because i never really used or saw them in action much, but I do know that they were very powerful. If we added the shields I think they should be nerfed, and maybe an even higher requirement to use (depending on the last requirement). Either way I think the model for the shield should be added, and the shield needs to be quite good in order to be wanted, but not too powerful.
I do like the idea of using this boss to fill up some gear gaps but I dont think all gaps should be filled, i enjoy a slightly in balanced way to get gear because it makes training certain ways harder, but more rewarding.
So in the end maybe the boss could have a good few drops, but if the key and quest idea I had before were possible then it would make the drops even rarer. RIP Forums
Finally we have signatures in the surprise forum update. I'm Lewis, I play Old School & I've been playing since 2005.

@Mod.Reach
I know you hate me but quick question... Why not poll the content first than program it after it passed? I'd assume you enjoy showing us the content on streams which kinda sells it a little better i suppose. But its still a risk that all those hours are wasted if it doesn't pass a poll.
You seem to be investing a lot into this raid boss which don't get me wrong seems like its gonna be epic. But at the end of the day the OSRS community can reject the content and down goes raid boss...

@Mod Reach,
THIS, is what I wanted to read. I had no idea that you already were working on Veteran PvM. I fully support it and cannot wait to see this Rapid Boss!
I do have to restate my fear of the polling system, however. The players had no say in the 75% aspect, I believe it is currently hindering us. Although this is only speculation at the time. I have no firm results on the matter.
Regardless, thanks for your time and read. Keep up the work and I'll keep playing

This goes along with my fear of the current polling system. There are several biases that are in factor. I've seen the staff really step their hype game up. Dev Blogs, Twitch Streams, Q&A, Twitter Hype, etc... After all their time and effort they are often times repaid with bashed polls. We had zero choice on voting for the polling system percent. I believe it may be time to reconsider a new number. I also believe that it should be a staff only decision. A poll about nerfing the polls would obviously get bashed as well
