It wouldn't be the main drop but Corp could drop "flakes" similar to ganodermic beasts which would be used to make degradeable magic armor with similar stats to ganodermic gear. It would have high demand for use at corp, pking, and would be a healthy and consistent way to make money at corp.


Do people actually want Gano? It was kinda game breaking by giving melee a absurdly powerful anti magic set up.:\

Gano had very low stab defence meaning DDS spec tears through it like butter. It'll be decent against other styles though like a whip or godsword. It'll also make spear/hastas a viable option in PVP in place of a whip/tentacle.

Introduce Spirit Shields as rare drops - Change no stats or effects.

Reason I say this is doing anything other than this option is practically gonna leave corp as dead content within a week maybe 2.

Quest Cape requirement or 210 Quest Points needed to gain access)
On top of that I think a 100+ combat requirement sounds fair

Oh yeah and on top of the preventing low lvl ruber specers the high requirements would keep looters to a minimum since we have no gravestones. Ideally I'd like the boss to be quickly accessible.

I would say Quest Cape requirement but i know i won't have any majority agreeing with me on that one, but 200 QPs+ isn't an exaggeration in my opionion.
And since Corporeal Beast was such a hard boss back in the days and even harder now without Turmoil, Statius weapon and so on i don't see any problem with having the Spirit shields back exactly as they were when they first got released.

One VERY important thing I think has been overlooked in the original post is the issue of the Coporeal Beast's weakness to stab. In RS3, when chaotic weapons came out, they only dealt half damage to the beast if I recall correctly. The Zamorakian spear and leaf bladed weapon were popular choices against him--were they not?

In this game currently is a very powerful one-handed stab weapon that was not in RS3: The Zamorakian Hasta. I think introducing the beast with such a weapon in the game may be somewhat problematic. Others may not agree though. It's just food for thought.

Furthermore, I think the quest cape requirement is an awesome idea. It is a great way to encourage questing in high level players--which in turn encourages participation in a lot of skills--and also protects the prices and market of the drops pretty well.
In any event, I do not think there needs to be better armour than there is at the moment, and the DFS is already a really nice endgame shield (not to mention the other recent shields). I don't know what you guys might think is good. I felt that the Armadyl Crossbow was a mistake, as the rune c'bow was already very powerful, allowing for the incredible power of enchanted bolts.

Please jagex stop ruining the game all over again, we got what we wanted. The GWD update was the PEAK of runescape and everyone knows it. stop giving in to the noobs who want this ****!!!! please im begging you. The only way you can release corp is if you remove the shields from the drop table, and if you did that you would have to add more loot which would probably be 80+ requirement gear which is a terrible idea. PLEASE DO NOT GIVE THE GAME SPIRIT SHIELDS. YOU WANT PEOPLE TO PLAY PVP? WELL THIS IS NOT HOW YOU GET PEOPLE TO PLAY PVP. THIS WILL RUIN THE WILDERNESS. PLEASEEE DONT GIVE IN TO THE PEOPLE WHO WANT SPIRIT SHIELDS!!!!!!!!!!!!! STOP RUINING THE GAME ALL OVER AGAIN. STOP RUINING THE GAME ALL OVER AGAIN. STOP RUINING THE GAME ALL OVER AGAIN. STOP RUINING THE GAME ALL OVER AGAIN. STOP RUINING THE GAME ALL OVER AGAIN. STOP RUINING THE GAME ALL OVER AGAIN. STOP RUINING THE GAME ALL OVER AGAIN. STOP RUINING THE GAME ALL OVER AGAIN

Ok I was on tilt with that last message. But seriously you guys need to think these updates through. Do you guys on the jagex team not realize that 3/4 of the runescape community does not read forums or post anything. So if you think about it this way, you are letting 1/4 of the runescape community choose whats happens for everyone. if you want a real poll, make everyone vote on the poll when they log in to oldschool. And you say that's their choice right? (to not be part of the decision making). but why do they make this choice? because they like the game how it is. I speak for all of the die hard 2007 RS junkies. its fine how it is. the more updates you do. the more content you release. the more die hard runescape 2007 fans are going to quit. and arent those people the reason this game was released? the population of rs2007 is already diminishing at a fast rate and you guys think its because people are getting bored. NO people are quitting because their friends are quitting. Thats why they are bored. why are their friends quitting? because you keep ruining the game with ****** updates. remember RS2007 or 07scape? we all wanted 2007 runescape with GWD being the final release of the game. that was runecapes greatest hour. I understand you guys think that eventually we need content updates and that is true. but not every ******* week, please please please atleast postpone this update. if corp and spirit shields are released u can count me out until another rs2007 is released. LET ME BE HEARD!!!!

I think the corp beast is a good boss to add. I'd like to focus my post on the drops that will be coming from the corp. I'd like to state that i am firmly against the idea of any spirit shields being introduced into osrs. First off there is no desperate need in the game for such over powered shields, now i know there is a possible solution of nerfing them but then that devalues the worth of camping the corp. Also with the introduction of these new shields it would crash the value of the dfs and the value of killing dragons. Now im suggesting an alternative drop that can be just as lucrative and appealing as the spirit shields and can also help revive a large part of the osrs community, allow the corp to drop dragon claws. As we all know the pvp community has been struggling and i think this could be an exciting alternative. Now these are just my thoughts and opinions i know people may agree or disagree but its just food for thought. Thanks for all the work you all are doing.

Minimum quest/combat level requirement: None.

Introduce Spirit Shields as rare drops: Change stats and effects. The visage drop rate is 1 in 10k (or 5k for KBD) so introducing a spirit shield at RS3's drop rate of 1 in 512 would destroy the DFS market. I assume the sigil or shield wouldn't drop in a 1 in 10k/5k rate, either. So, the stats should be a bit less than the DFS, but with an effect as well. So if someone wants pure defence/strength bonuses, they will use the DFS. If someone wants the effect, they will use a spirit shield.

Also another idea: Maybe add a few curse-like prayers to be "dropped" by Corp.

On a side note, am I the only one who wants to take the spear mechanic out? It's just burdensome and it doesn't really add to the boss. I can understand that it might be too easy if the spear mechanic isn't active, so just buff it some?
