To all those asking for a slayer requirement i have one thing to say: I JUST GOT 99 HERB SO PLS ADD A 99 HERB REQUIREMENT TO KILL IT since it has venom and all, right? Hope you get my point and stop with this stupid idea of making slayer mandatory for bossing

Completely agree, imo the rewards are the most important aspect of PvM/Bossing

Add a ranged and magic equivalent we don't need more melee weapons in the game.

Nevermind.

For those saying add a slayer req. This is like the QBD it doesn't need a slayer req, it will have a requirement anyway, completion of Regicide.

We are always open to offering new mechanics that bring something new to combat, if the community suggests and supports new mechanics then they are definitely possible.


What is going to be in place so that these new weapons are not used to abuse other game mechanics? Such as using the poison on corp then waiting outside until it dies much like how the first abysmal demon was killed back in the day to get the first whip? And if the poison is not meant to ever work on mobs or bosses what point do they serve outside of pking? Tough questions i know but some concerns i have with this new poison that just does more damage over time and does not go away unless cured.


Any bosses/mobs where this can be abused will be poison immune.


Thought i'd add a link here to ronan talking about the poison. So this update does appear more towards a new pking weapon choice then anything else. The poison robs potential exp from mobs so that rules them out and bosses are out due to the above post so what will these weapons be used for mainly? I would say just another pking update.

Blowpipe with dragon darts and odium ward
Ranged attack: +60
Ranged strength: +40

Magic shortbow with rune arrows
Ranged attack: +69
Ranged strength: +49

Unless this new venom is incredibly powerful that's really disappointing. I like the idea of a blowpipe to give darts a use, but it should remain at dart speed.

I wonder what it would be like if the blowpipe let us fire darts at 1 dart per tick but offered no stat boosts. It would be like a machine gun for darts. :P

I would like to see some completely
new ideas
, I think it's not worth the time even trying to rework the weapons you've given us so far.

The blowdart
won't be used as a spec weapon because of the dark bow
, it isn't needed as a method to reduce HP as we have that already in the darts themselves, knives, MSB + rune arrows and Karil's Xbow, do we really need to add another one to the
great variety we already have
?

If MSB + rune arrows is better as a level 50 weapon compared to a level 75 one, I think we have a problem.

Poll the dragon defender to come from the warrior's guild, give us something else as our melee option from this boss* tbh melee doesn't even need a reward from this boss.

The fang gives us
9 extra accuracy
making the master wand's only use being the ability to auto-cast ancients, which it is rarely used for… do you really want to take out the only other use it has, in that it is the most accurate magic weapon too?

SOTD is only used in PvP, even with the venom addition the fang gives, 2 doses of anti will get rid of the venom, thus making it pointless and also providing nothing at all desirable about the fang except the extra accuracy… which it doesn't need -
Please think of something more useful to more areas of the game.

Look at his stats, he clearly has more experience playing the game than you do.
Look at your name, you're clearly judgemental and don't understand what opinions are.
Dragon defenders should come from the warriors guild (my opinion) and the drops from this boss are terrible (my opinion).
Also, why should he not have the right to vote? He'll be camping this boss - he already has max gear inc ely for it, you have what? Maybe a veracs skirt and some d'hide?
