Please, enough with the pvm updates it's practically ALL we've had this year along with pvp. By this I mean we started the year with 2 months of slayer updates, then new bosses, then Clan Wars, then Bounty Hunter, then boss pets, then more bosses...

Let's focus on getting a resizeable interface or a working world map. A world map that has dungeon and minigame maps as well please. An HD interface would also be nice (keep same graphics just give us the interface).

I know this was put back on the shelf awhile ago, but also can we please poll a toggle option for old monster models and skilling animations to decide if we want 04 (early rs2) or 07. We need to get some nostalgia back into this game, so I would also like to see a poll for old Fally and Varrock again...we have kinda drifted away from what "oldschool runescape" was supposed to be.

By put back on shelf btw is they featured old monster models in elf city here for osrs' 1st birthday. They were exhibits like at a zoo, it was a very beautiful thing to see those old blue zombie models again and old hellhounds were huge and actually looked menacing!

There's never going to be enough PvM updates - most of the player base is made up of PvMers. Also why are you still playing for nostalgia..?

Did you miss the part I mentioned resizable interface and a working world map? I'm not playing for nostalgia, however if you don't want the nostalgia stuff then don't vote for it. I simply mentioned it having a toggle option for those that do want it.

Also I don't expect anyone in this thread to really agree to me because I know it's the wrong spot to post it. However I'm tempted to post it in the right spot now.

instead of a slayer req why not add a skill req like gwd where you have the choice between 2 skills (str and agil)? you can choose the skill you want to train to like 70ish and it will make sure not every1 can go and kill the snake boss.

there are alot of pvmers but the game isn't made for us only, i agree that there need to be some more skill updates. only problem is, hexis ******* always find reasons to vote no to skill updates.

I think these weapons them degrading (do we really need more junk degrading items?) and this poison are all very bad ideas. I see this poison being used on bosses and enemies and hiding to watch them die similar to how the first whip entered rs2 back in the day. Person who got it did not have the slay level instead they ran in poisoned it and safe spotted till it died.

The poison here is made perfect for that type of thing. Except this is worse as the damage increases rather then decreases. And all 3 of these seem more of just another pking update. Another means for them to attack a player in wild forcing them to run out now though rather then hiding as hiding will do no good with the poison damage increasing over time.

I'm all for new weapons and armor to finish out the combat levels clear from 1-99. But i am not for these weapons and their poison. And definitely not for another poorly made item that degrades. Barrows is bad enough same as crystal shield and bow. Are you incapable of making new weapons and armor that do not degrade? That is the number 1 question on my mind.

I agree it's not only for us - I skill alot too, I'm a smiley in hexis too (loool) - I agree that they vote down skill updates (they don't want skilling to become any easier) and when they noticed the construction update one guy even said 'notoafkcon' - but quite a few of them thought it was a good update. Don't worry about it, they're a small clan - like 20-30 people in cc usually so even if they all vote no it wont completely ruin the poll

That was done later that you needed the slay levels to attack a mob. Because of what i just said above.

What is this cancerous load of garbage I just read? Oh boy more nonsense to add to P.v.M/PDegradeScape. If this is how you want to introduce dragon defender, more power to you but I highly doubt it'll be used as much as you're hoping. Btw jagex, I'm sure you guys know this, but by the dev blog here, apparently not. Venoms causes PARALYSIS , not poison. So if you are going to follow through with this, at least do that instead.

Inb4 you're probably just a poor noob that doesn't know how to pvm/pvp.

Pvp is the most useless aspect of this game, so I don't need to know how to do it. Any arguments you randoms think you have is invalid and wrong. Don't even try.

Btw nearly 1.7k total and only been playing since January 2014 from level 3. 10 year vet scrubs. Bye
