Wow amazing layout! Really sweet. I hated being drip-fed information especially when u want to just get to the bit you want, Great job!

I only live in hope that you will, one day, allow Tormented demons to make their return :(

Something can't be returned if they weren't in before.

Ahrim's buff is great for PvP, as it seems the update was intended on making it good for this situation. It decreases opponent's strength by 5 (stackable) 25% of the time, and is capable of maxing a 39 with barrage.

I'm a mage pker and full Ahrims would still be a absolutely horrible choice for PvP. Hitting 2-5 more is not worth the defensive stats one loses out on by using full Ahrim's. Unlike conventional damage boosts, it is also not consistent because in order to get that 39 you have to max while the set effect activates at the same time.

It is still FAR better to use mage tank gear. Why would I use full ahrim's with it's sub 120 slash def when I can still hit 34s while having +217 (Or higher) slash def instead?

The slightly higher damage is nowhere near making full Ahrim's effective to use. The defensive stats is simply too low and farcasting is often too counter productive except in safe pvp...in which case, SoT*+occult is still better as they're more consistent (and with a higher mage attk bonus).

Either Ahrim's needs something drastic to make it worth using ..or it needs to be given better melee defenses, such as adding more def to the staff and hood.
OSRS Mage Tank.


Believe magic to only be for support? Think again. It's just as valid of a Pking style as melee and range is.

I'm sure this update will be interesting to some people but I'd like to know when we can see a trading solution. We need the GE. I saw a post somewhere that said the GE was polled and failed. I'd really like to know when that was. I remember a poll about an inferior solution called the trading post but I never remember a poll about the GE. I also remember seeing posts saying "we're working on the trading solution so we won't be polling that for future updates". Where is it???

On a separate note, I think the way oldschool updates are being managed is flawed. Polling users is not an appropriate way to determine product features no matter where you set the acceptance threshold. Of course players think it is great but anyone with any experience in product management knows the concept is flawed.

Let's say something passes with 75% of the vote. That means that 1 out of 4 players don't like the idea. Are their opinions irrelevant? Jagex should have the authority and responsibility to make decisions that are in the best interest of the game and not sluff this responsibility on players.

I may be in the minority but I hope Jagex will consider what I'm trying to say.

You win some, you lose some. Focusing on the majority is in my opinion more important. Just because you may be in the minority on some issues, doesn't mean your in some secluded "minority community" of players who Jagex doesn't listen to. It's obvious that the OSRS dev team are trying to make as many people happy as possible. You can't make everyone happy.

Flamtaer bag

In addition to the Amulet of the Damned being added to the Shades of Mort'ton silver chest, the flamtaer bag has been added to all chests excluding bronze. The bag is untradeable and you are only able to obtain one at a time. The bag is destroyed when dropped.

The flamtaer bag can carry 60 timber beams or wooden planks , 60 limestone bricks and 500 swamp paste. Players taking part in the Shades of Mort'ton activity should find this item saves them a lot of inventory space.

Upon receiving a flamtaer bag, I've discovered that I can only deposit timber beams and not regular planks. Has the bag be changed to no longer allow regular planks to be stored in it?
