Oh yes bravo let's turn oldschool into easyscape. *sarcasm* The spectral and arcane were made with sense. Elysian and Divine were made to ruin the game. If you think the bosses in this game are too difficult to solo reliably, then good, that's the point, none of the godwar bosses are meant to be solo'd. They are TEAM bosses. If divine and elysian are added in the game as before, every godwars item will be even cheaper than it is, (lol bandos godsword 3m) you could camp godwars for days and those who player kill with them will just ruin what little player killing scene we have left. Who thought it was okay to bring a shield with similar defensive stats as a dragonfire shield and added 30% damage reduction to every incoming attack? that's almost as strong as a protection prayer, and the sad part it stacks with protection prayers at a percentage. People would run around in GREEN dragonhide with a divine and absolutely demolish anyone without a divine. The shields are broken and just easymode. Ive seen people who killed all 3 dks at 1 time with no protection prays just wearing a divine. how is that balanced?

You sir. Are absolutely clueless and definetly have never had a Divine/Elysian for yourself

PLEASE whatever you guys end up doing - DON'T implement any new gloves that will make barrows gloves obsolete
(just like EOC where a pair of ganodermic gloves worth 5k is a better choice) It will most definitely ruin it for all those who worked hard with quests/levels to finish RFD, which I honestly think is the most precious accomplishment one can obtain in old school. It's like the whole point of questing, getting to that stage of achievements.

Teheh, you are so clueless.

WHO said they are team bosses? If you want to solo you can solo.

Divine
was only over powered because we used to have chaotics, curses, overloads and summoning. Without those, for example if you were to solo bandos and you got 3 kills in 1 trip, with divine you would only get 1 more kill MAX. Only 1 more kill with a shield worth a fortune. Not to mention the prayer drain that would occur with this effect meaning you would have to take more restores and less sara brews. Over powered? Pls sit down lad, leave that talk to people who actually used to own Divs and Elys.

Elysian
was never too over powered in my opinion, it blocked 25% of all damage BUT only had a 70% chance of activating.

Retain how the shields were in 2008, exactly the same.

Wall of text yo but +1 to this, divine was very overpowered, people can argue all they want, it was. Ely is debatable....

I would say Implement it, make it a 200 QP requirement and leave the shields exactly how they were. The boss will already be really hard to kill with the gear we have available, and the drops are rare enough themself. I think the shields will be so expensive for a while that only a small percentage could afford them, but very rewarding if you can get a hold of one. :)

support, the most ppl dont understand that only <0.1% of the players will have a divine or even a ely.
and they are not that overpowerd - turmoil, summ and ovls made bossing easy.

99% of the ppl who dont want divines to be released know that they will never ever have one because they are poor noobs. and they not even had one before eoc was released

As a high level player myself, I don't care about the reqs.... but guys lets be honest here .. do you really think the low level players will vote yes if they can't go in and enjoy it themselves?

For this reason I vote it has no requirements, the combat requirements to actually kill the thing will speak for itself.

AND defiantly do not touch a single thing on how divine, elys, arcanes and spectrals are. LEAVE THEM EXACTLY as they were.

I'll only vote yes if the drops are exactly the same as before.

Corp takes a lot longer to kill than a GWD boss, costs a lot more in supplies, and to top it off the chance of seeing a sigil is a lot lower than that of a hilt.

Not to mention a divine is 100% useless when training anyways, as a rune defender is better xp/hr.

If they shields are nerfed, than corp will be dead. If they release new "best in slot" items, it would devalue previously gained xp because with new best in slot items slayer would be faster. At least the spirit shields don't increase xp rates.

And to all the noobs that say they are overpowered... they cost a lot for a reason and you're probably just mad that you cannot afford one. And it's not like the wilderness will be packed with people using divine... it's a rare and expensive item... much harder to obtain than an AGS

I don't have a problem with them releasing corp but if they nerf the shields or add new items I'll vote no
