Nice rewards, I have a few suggestions though:

Change MLM 20% boost to an increased chance of getting higher tier ore from paydirt? This would increase profit and xp/hr slightly without making the quarry dead content.

The Ardy cloak thieving bonus is ambiguous. Will this apply to looting urns at Pyramid Plunder as well? The effect does not work at PP in RS3, so I'm assuming it would also not work for OSRS. I'd like to make sure though.

The Fremennik noted dagannoth bone reward should be changed to an elite reward, rather than a hard one. This will increase gp/hr there substantially and so it seems better suited to elite than hard.

For the Kharidian Desert rewards, could we look at introducing a Sceptre of the Gods style reward? A possible mechanic could be after completing the hard/elite tasks, players can receive a Sceptre of the Gods from the golden chest in room 8 (1/1000 chance?). The sceptre would hold 20 charges and be one handed. It could be recharged using the same items as a regular sceptre.

I'm not sure how I feel about the elite Western Provinces reward where Nieve's slayer points/task would be increased to match Duradel's. Currently, Nieve already offers superior experience/hour despite being a lower leveled slayer master. Perhaps this reward could be applied to Duradel instead (as a Karamja elite reward) to increase his points/task by 3 (18/90/270 vs 15/75/225).

Apart from that, I'm happy with the rewards and look forward to diary release.

I like most of the rewards, but there's one thing I'm really against and that's the stab bonus on the Ardougne cloak. The 4 version gives +6 stab and makes it the best in slot, I believe the best items in slot for combat should come from PvM or PvP and not skilling.

Here's a discussion I'd like to start. What would the community think about an upgrade to the Monster Examine spell?
It would tell you an NPC's defence bonuses. Like we all hear that metal dragon's are weak to stab but just how much more would it be?

This upgraded monster examine would promote tactics in game instead of just whipping everything to death.

If people think exact combat stats overpowered then maybe it would just tell you the order of types of weakness an NPC has. For example, an iron dragon's monster examine might be
magic>stab>range>crush>slash

What do you guys think?

Actually it doesn't, friend of mine calc'd and it fcape would probably be better DPS for corp. Personally I'm all for achieve diaries, why shouldn't the PvM and skilling worlds be
allowed to mix?

Just a suggestion: please make the Elite sections of each diary achievement (i.e. get X in a minigame, kill a boss of some sort) and non-combat skill based, rather than based on completing the previous 'hard' section!

As someone who's a fan of unusual accounts and enjoys skilling, I always found it frustrating when I couldn't bump up a dairy reward because I didn't have some asinine quest (Ie, doing easy/medium/elite sections should give you a 'hard' reward).

Looks kinda too OP, in my taste.

Shout out to Spillekrogen!.


OH shut up, don't forget you're gonna need high stats to be able to get the good ones.

For all the people who say because it needs high stats it can't be O*, consider this. If instead they made it so you got 50x more runes from barrows instead of double, would that be OP? Your arguments that nothing is OP don't hold any water.
