Hello,

I like most of the rewards but here is what I think are the main problems/too op to enter the game:

Ardougne:
- Ardougne cloak should NOT have stab attack bonus at all and the prayer bonus should be +4 at elite and +3 at hard (this is not a combat diary is it?!)

Kandarin:
- Just ditch the idea of skipping a BA wave
- I also think buying zamorakian spears and turning them into hastas with 50% discount would become a moneymaking method the game doesn't need, so im against this

Karamja:
- No Fight Cave resurrection please, whats the point in "fire cape challenge" if you can die at Jad and still get it

Lumbridge:
- No increased exp from Tears of Guthix, its good as it is
- 20% discount on rfd gloves could be a potential abuse risk: kill a friend in 20+ wildy and loot 100% of the coins (wasnt it changed to 100% drop from 60%?) but the friend only paid 80% for it, so a full inv would be real ABUSE money maker

Morytania:
- The 10% slayer exp boost in slayer tower is kind of OP. Imo slayer should remain a hard to level skill with little to no boosts as it always has. Im ok with 5% boost though

Varrock:
- No daily battlestaves please, just no. This is just one of the things that started ruining RS2
- 10% chance to mine double runite is op! Runite mining is already the best cash/hour in game (excluding merchanting) and it certainly doesn't need a buff. Limit this double mining chance to adamantite

Western Provinces:
- Snake boss benefits could end up being kind of a requirement to kill it, if the bonus is too good there is no point in killing it without the bonus as prices will adjust accordingly to the best way of doing it
- Crystal halberd being weak, balanced or op is all up to the special attack. Stats so far seem legit for a 3-atk speed weapon

Falador:
- Please make the prayer recharge work only when not in combat
- 20% more medium level clues from guards should be Easy diary reward as it would appeal more to low level players

I'll have to mull this over for a bit. I want to voice my concerns but there are so many op rewards that I don't even know where to begin. There has been considerable effort to keep old school similar to the way it was back in its era. This seems like a drastic update when given all at once. Many of these would have been exceptional rewards for updates that could come out over time.

QUIT CRYING OP ffs. These rewards are great, finally a REAL step forward with these to get away from this boring 07 garbage.
nice try rs3 troll but this is old school and the players will not allow this. He is giving heavy feedback and if you havent notice just about 95% of players are saying these things are op. So Tru Khaoz either stop crying or start giving feedback, if not just dont say anything if you have nothing to say to be productive for this forum thread.

It's annoying people who are saying op rewards and not giving any alternative ideas.

If you think they are op please give some alternative ideas.
not trying to say what you can and cant say but lots of people do think most of the rewards are extremely op but that doesnt mean we necessarily know what right things we can suggest as ideas for achievement tasks.. If i had a whole list right now that would actually be good for the task system i'd suggest the whole list right now.. But since i have no clue what to come up with to alternative ideas from the ones already on the dev blog i cant really do anything about it, and i think thats the reason for others aswell they think they can just leave it to other people to suggest ideas.. Kinda sucks i have no clue what to suggest, but if i had at least one idea i'd post it, even then i highly doubt a jmod would care about my opinion and actually remove the op things and add my new ideas.

Howdie Jagexians,

I will try to give more useful input later after I read the post thoroughly...

At first glance I think it looks great !!!

As for all who think things are overpowered... idk... like I said I need to read it
Thoroughly
to give an effective reply... but Here is a thought sir...
Tie all the diaries together ! In other words, completing one before you can go on to the next. This might be best balanced at the high and elite levels so that (unless you have a great "illegal" bot program) it
will
take people a long time to complete them all... that way the "op" rewards will be earned.

/s/

You're the RS3 troll, you're 58 total with 6375 total xp. I'm so glad achievement diaries are coming and I'm also glad that you can't vote.

I forgot from my long post to say that "cannonball smithing time is halved" reward from Morytania diary is also overpowered and completely unnecessary (as is a few others I mentioned earlier). It won't affect cannonball making profit as the price will halve too over time but instead it affects ranging skill leveling and slayer, which both get easier as cannoning would be cheap. So it doesn't really benefit the ones who have the achievement done but rather the ones who buy the cannonballs, making the whole reward pointless and just plain "easyscape" stuff.
