Please keep the stats of the shields the same I don't want corp to end up being dead content. Turmoil/Overloads along with the shield is what made them overpowered I feel like people are treating this like AGS before it came out
Agreed, everyone hated the AGS before it came out, alot of people wanted it to only spec once etc, now it's one of the most loved weapons in the game.

I believe the Spectral and Arcane spirit shields were fine as they were. The Elysian and Divine were a little overpowered because they tanked the crap out of all three corners of the triangle, which totally broke it. If their passive abilities could only affect one corner at a time, but still be allowed to work on all 3 corners, I think we'd have a fair compromise. You could make the shields morph, or something along those lines, to accomplish it. I don't think any visual changes are required for the morph, just the ability changes, stats remain the same, etc.

I think the only rational solution would be everyone 100+ combat or 90+ range can fight the corporal beast. I see no direct correlation between quest points and a BOSS. To elaborate more on why I believe combat is the only rational solution, is because combat should be looked at as an accomplishment, experience, and a respectable aspect in any game play. However our standards in runescape has swayed us from that to other things such as money or other things people find more tedious. I choose 90+ range because of its relevance when killing the core and the high hits a ruby bolt can hit. There is a fair amount of people that are lv 80-99 with high level core that stand a fair chance against the corporal beast. Also 90+ range is respectable and hard to earn.

You wouldn't use ruby bolts (e) on corp, it's a 6% chance of speccing and the spec is capped at 50. Also if you use emerald (e)s to stun the core, a lower range level would probably useful because then you're less likely to kill the core. I'm not saying this as a low level complaining about a req, I'm 95 range.

Note: If you have a 6% chance of hitting a 50, in theory you will hit a 50 every 16-17 shots, crossbows are also slower than a zamorak spear so in that time you could probably get in 20+ hits with a zamorak spear. Meaning ruby (e)s would be much lower DPS than using a zamorak spear.

I say keep the shields the same as before. With 07 moves forward there will probably be more challenging bosses than Corporeal Beast. So the shields will then be in dramatic need. Plus! everyone knows that feeling of seeing your name in green text saying you received that Divine Sigil. We need items that hold this kind of value in the game. It keeps the economy going and moving healthy. 3rd age armor is great and all but holds no value other than looking cool. With adding sigils in the picture, it will stir the economy in a good direction with really going for them as a drop. Plus we need a boss right now that is extremely active. GWD without nex at the moment is kind of dull.

With all new skill talk, why not poll summoning with corp just like in '08?

We have new boss pets that everybody loves, so considering that, there's a great chance summoning gets 75% in a poll. Polling it would be a great idea.

This, PvM is so boring at the moment, I haven't been to GWD in months because it's boring and I haven't been to DKs in ages either because it's not that good money. Corp (and nex) would be amazing because they're hard bosses, they have good loot, and they're just enjoyable to team in general.
