I think it would be awesome if it was in the Poison Wasteland. A dungeon used to store treasure that was once controlled by elves taken over by the Snake boss. At the end there's a chest with potential crystal weapon/armor loot.

Clouds,

'A new high level solo boss' came second on the priority poll that finished on Septembe[.....]is is an update that is 'better late than never'.

Achievement diaries are also coming out in Early 2015 as well, so that's something else to look forward to.

EDIT: Corp has already settled in and actually, the hype was overkill, really not many people at all still actively kill it due to profits in the short and long term not being very goo[...]lly it is becoming a reality and I cannot wait!

no sir,

solo boss was 3rd in priority poll #3 with 10%, new slayer boss was 2nd with 12%, and new continent was 1st with 30%..... so it's an odd thing that they're even realizing the new solo boss before the continent.... what "priority" did we vote for? lmao

Like i've said and will say again. I love the OSRS Dev team, but this is just an odd decision and where is it coming from?


I struggle to understand how you don't understand that a boss takes probably 5% of the time to create the whole continent and probably 15% of the time to do the whole of the next batch of slayer updates… they can't just spend all their time on the top priority because we would get no new updates to the game in the meantime, it's not hard dude lol.


I struggle to understand how you don't understand what priority means. THE PRIORITY POLL was was designed for OSRS Dev Team to see what they should work on first... WE voted for the order of things coming out...... thats what the PRIORITY means.... Obviously it was largely misunderstood if they release the 3rd place option first...

"I struggle to understand...." Yeah you must, you're not understanding basic vocabulary........
Everybody 'round me saying I should relax 'cuz I've been going hard 'till my eyes roll back but,
all I wanna do is forget about my past and smoke a'lil ranarr, really nothing too drastic..

I do like the idea of a solo boss, and this whole thing in general seems decent, but it could be much better. I just worry we will get boss after boss after boss, new gear on top of new gear until Whip is worth like 50k like rs3. *shutters*

Is that the theme of any new item that enters the game that's pretty cool/useful is that it must degrade? I know it's there for a reason but it doesn't have to be a thing for every new item we get, makes it lame tbh. Other than that this looks good.

In my opinion the Snake boss should have a slayer level requirement - Those who simply camp NMZ have their stats but they should stick to GWD and other bosses. New high-level bosses should be exclusive to those who put in the effort to train slayer :)

Why do we need another pvming update when we just got corp a few weeks ago? We should be focusing on other updates than slayer/pvm due to all the love and support its gotten in the past year. I will vote no on this boss because its not what we need.

The poison looks a bit overpowered in my opinion, but we'll see how it is when released :) Good job jagex, keep the updates coming! Adding new contents can only be a positive thing! :)

Looking great. :) Only thing I dont fully agree about are the rewards you get. The new poison affects the combat system too much, for example (and especially) when pvping.

Other thing is that the real "old school" items like a whip or barrows armour will decrease in price as a result of so many new rewards from all the bosses being added, like this one. This is what happened in RS3, but because this is the modern version of RS this is logical and not a problem. But in 07 RS, it's something that we don't want to happen.

But besides that, nice idea. :D Will game for food!
