If you play this game for nostalgia Vote NO on corporeal beast.

Why bring arcane and spectral when there is odium and malediction? Also if they bring an item like divine/elysian whos abilities are insane whats stopping them from bringing other items with abilities that will mess gameplay up. If they are going to bring the corporeal beast back whats stopping them from bringing another major boss like nex back? Torva in OSRS with Divine/Elysian.. Sounds alot like EOC to me. That'll be the day i cancel my membership.

I've always preached progression: Moving Oldschool to the future.

Let's stop fearing "over powerful" items. By adding armor and consumables to balance them, we can begin to introduce a new generation of PvM. As is, Oldschool is way too easy. I can solo every single boss in game and multiple times at that. Is it not time to move on? Do not fear the results of PvP, as I said we can add new armors and consumables in the veteran PvM drop tables.

My proposal:

-All Spirit Shields as introduced in the original update. (No nerf.)
-Corporeal Beast pet.
-Dark Energy Core pet.
-Dragon/Draconic Warhammer: may be similar in effect to the Statius Warhammer or a new and unique effect.
-Elite Clue Scrolls
-Tomb of Healing: Offhand book that has a time based effect of converting 1 prayer point to 1-4 hitpoints. (Effect can be improved upon by other player feedback.)

Think of this as opportunity. A game can only be so fun without challenge within its presentation. Nothing at this time makes Runescape challenging, only time consuming. Is it not time to introduce the future? Or should we fear the consequences and bash it every time it is within question?

Support

agreed

why in the world would anyone want a corp beast in 07? people need to remember why we started playing this in the first place. atleast for myself it was because there were no corp beasts or even godwars...if we go down this path whats next. claws and rapiers? if you like these things theres a game version that allready exists for you. dont ruin the only version others of us are willing to play. 07 not 2011 <3

Looks like you weren't here when we decided to divide ourselves from rs3. The real reason we have old school is because of evolution of combat, and not because they released corp and nex on rs3. The game needs updates and as we move on these updates become necessary so the community doesn't become bored of fighting the same boss every single day.

Ask yourself... How long is your nostalgia really going to last...?

I want the shields to be the way they were, it wont make the players OP. Players were OP because they had curses, summoning, overloads, and chaotics which made PVM really easy. Right now it's impossible to do more than 3-4 kills per trip solo at gwd and it's kind of annoying getting keys or kc every 15 minutes to solo gwd bosses. I want the spirit shields to be the way they were so players can solo or duo more kills per trip and it will prevent corp from being dead content and i'm not going to spend 400-500k a trip to split a 50m shield with 6-8 people which will take days to get.

^This. Can't introduce corporeal beast with its difficulty without making it rewarding. The shields were only 'overpowered' with turmoil and the like.
I agree, I hope enough people feel the same way :/

No requirements please. Everyone should be able to do any boss they want no matter what their level is and if there is a combat requirement most low level players will vote no for corp.

And please leave the spirit shields the way they are I dont want to spend 400-500k a trip to camp corp for a week to split a 50m shield with 6-8 people.

Honestly, corp is fine how it is. But we can take this chance to make the already awesome boss better!

It's just an idea, but maybe we can have the corp drop a new set of necklaces? similar to how saradomin has the whisper/hiss/murmur in rs3. The hiss' equivalent, would sort of decrease the value of the occult necklace, but i think the good outweighs the bad in this situation.
Another thought is maybe the corp can have a chance to drop the dragon full helm? Only mithril dragons can drop this item, so maybe it would be cool to see that into the table, possibly the same drop percentage as the sigils?

Now, we should definately keep the sigils!!! They are the trademark of the Corporeal Beast!!! if you dont want them, then why even make the corp the newest boss? But, the divine should be nerfed, maybe taking the absorption from 30% down to 18% or 20% this way the shield will still be worth while. Another idea, comes from rs3. I think it would be smart to give all three, Elysian, Divine, and Arcane, the damage absorption ability. I havent thought much about the Spectral, but maybe it can give +25 to all offensive stats? Also i cant recall if spectral had the same drop percent, but if it didn't i would like to see it have the same percentage as the others.

I would like to see these shields having a defense requirement of 80 or 85. They were honestly too good to be a level 75 shield. We should keep the Elixer also.

And lastly, please put the cave in the wild, and add the teleport to the games necklace. it was a nice feature. and personally i miss seeing it on the necklace :s

I think Corp needs to be introduced. Old school is an awesome game that NEEDS to stay alive. Most people should realize that in order for that to happen we need change. We also need upgrades. If the people insist on "no *P" gear the game will get stale. We can't just be having the same levelled gear introduced with different looks. Although the new gear needs to have very high level requirements to use. You can't introduce gear with amazing stats and allow low levels to have access to it. This will encourage people to train more as well as give people who do train to max their accounts added perks. Currently our max gear is level 70-75. Let's see some level 85 or even level 90 gear!

I say introduce Corp with a 110+ lvl requirement as well as a 200+ or even a quest cape requirement. This will ensure the prices and the rarity of the drops stay high.

Keep spirit shields the way they were. Except increase the defence requirements because I also agree they were too powerful to be such a low level shield.

YES introduce a new high levelled melee head piece!

First! Will Add Feedback once I have completed reading it.

- Combat level requirement (110+)
- Introduce Spirit Shields as rare drops (Lower Stats and Nerf Effects)
- Introduce specific Spirit Shields. (Lower Tier Ones)
- Introduce new best in slot items - (Mid-high Level Spear Weapon)

Original message details are unavailable.
I'd prefer the original spirit shields, anything worse won't be valuable enough to make the boss worth camping.
High CB Level will level out having Nerfed the Spirit Shields.

Corp should be high lvl content lvl 110+ i think.. this will help get rid of the noobs.. make corp a challenge for the high lvl players as well it was almost to easy to sit back with a z hasta and kill corp..

with the new wilderness boss u just go up there and find noobs 4 iteming and killing them with a fair bit of ease so it would be good to see corp being a hard boss to kill.

If you really think there will be no future updates with new armour and weapons, I suggest you cancel your membership now. Your stuck in 2007. Move on . We don't need people like you voting no on all new content.

My advice to you : Log on to the Runescape website and go to 'manage account', then click cancel membership. Then, put some leggings on and start twerking.

In regards to corp - Leave the drops unchanged, I dont really care about combat/quest reqs.

MY personal vote is this :
Introduce Spirit Shields as rare drops - Change no stats or effects.
If need be re balance divine and elysian, but keep their effect to some extent!
Edit:I think that there should be no minimum requirement to access the corp beast, let everyone who wants to enjoy it!
