okay start talking about the dragon defender soon then i was counting on that this sucks u guys finally have a good idea and there we go lost by the community also the helm stats sucks i hope it wil look great with full bandos gear else nty
Uses for helm (that I can think of):
-Bandos Attacker
-Zamorak Tank (poison block op)
-Corp

People wont use it for zamorak attack because most people use slay helms, they wont use it at the snake boss because you have to use magic and/or range there and it's -10 in both of them (shame, the antipoison would be good there), they also wont tribrid DKs with it (shame - again, the antipoison would be good there), also because of the -10 range/mage. So the 2 hy/tribrid boss fights we have (and the 2 main poisonous bosses) are the places where the helm wont actually be that good...

It's a shame this community is so afraid of minuscule change. God forbid, a new set of High, or even Elite gear, replaces the high level content we have now. We should welcome this.

I look forward to seeing Dragonfire Shield, and Armadyl gear being "Med-Level" content. More so, I look forward to new armors, consumables, prayers, weapons, etc... that all combat each other, thus progressing the game.

BUT OH ****! This could make a Nez. Helm crash 5k! It will make it utterly useless low-level content. Could the player base be a little more progressive?

K Thanks,

Joy

So far the second version of drops is a lot better, although i do feel Staff of the Dead is already powerful enough. I find the new special on the blowpipe a lot more original, and agree that i will add a very interested twist to pvp.


Off topic, i wish to see a poll about the return of Stealing Creation Minigame :

With a change of the reward system, to resemble nightmare zone rewards without imbuements.
Add Logs, Ores, etc, to be able to be purchased with points, Because these items cannon* crash hard due to alch prices.
Maybe release a new outfit such as a flame suit - to increase peoples desires to firemake, maybe even raising the prices of lower level logs.
But mostly just for the pure enjoyment i got from the minigame that no minigame in this version compares to, In my opinion!
Thanks mods<3

Looks like Jagex hasn't learned from their mistakes and still doing exactly what they were doing in 2010-2012

They're trying to keep things a bit more balanced. Venom fang for example, doesn't increase max of mage any further while the blowpipe probably wouldn't be effective for rushing as handcannon was.

The melee helm is a problem since it allows meleers to make the mage/range weps useless, but atleast it doesn't increase their max or accuracy as the spike would have.
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.

Imperium / Percoc***,

Jagex has learned a lot. This is also community-driven, therefore we ultimately are the ones to now learn. I commend the Old School developers greatly for bringing us new High-Level-Content.

I hope to see Elite PvM, and a future that follows. We honestly need to stop valuing the possibility of devaluing another item. Where is a future in the past?

Way to ruin the blow pipe.

You're allowed to make weapons that are stronger than other gear. It didn't devalue anything else, and now this special attack isn't useful for pking any more. The whole reason you shot three darts was to make up for its lack in high hits. Now you have neither quantity or power. Why did you let the reactions of a couple players screaming and crying change a good idea? Yet when you have bad ideas people who complain get ignored.

Also the spike,
If you were going to introduce a defender I was glad you made it something that had to be bought, and not a free piece of armor that will instantly devalue dragon-fire shield and is free 30% accuracy boost. This type of power up SHOULD NOT be free and here you go supporting an idea that says it should be free. That is absolutely stupid.

Really disappointed you changed the ideas, you had something solid initially but couldn't stick to your grit to see it through. "I've been playing since 2006 but jagex made me quit 11/20/2013"
