Glad to see these are moving forward. Now if we could just get you to put in the GE...

Regarding diaries:
- Please make sure all tasks (including elite) can be completed through solo play. There are many of us that don't like playing in clans or groups. Nothing against those people, just allow those of us that don't like that style to continue to get the most out of the game without forcing a new paradigm. Think about how many people hate having to find a partner for the Hero's quest.

For the Morytania diary:
- Consider having the bone grinder auto-grind if you have completed the hard level.
- Also, I hope Robin will exchange any bones for bonemeal and not just normal bones.

For the Western provinces:
- Overall the rewards are weak - there was nothing that looked that interesting.
- Who cares about increasing tel*port crystals to 5 charges. I have hundreds of crystals from elves slayer tasks. Increasing to 5 charges is of little value.
- Drop the free teleports. It's getting too easy to teleport around Runescape which belittles quest rewards and leveling agility to improve run replenishment.

Finally, please give us a better trading option. It's ridiculous that we have to use Zybez - a site that is censored in the game has become the only semi-official trading management system. The GE is fantastic and needs to be brought back.

No to pretty much everything.

It's like you want the game to be easier so that people get bored of it quicker.

How is this comment helpful?

"No to pretty much everything." I'm going to assume you're talking about rewards. Which rewards are you saying no to? Why are you saying no to them? What can be some to improve the rewards?

"It's like you want the game to be easier so that people get bored of it quicker." What is making the game easier with this update? If it's the reward, which rewards are going to make the game easier? Why would it be in Jagex and the OSRS team interests to make people quit quicker?

If the game stays the same, people will get bored and quit/take breaks. That's not in anyone's interests.

Trading post is coming, and it will be polled to allow trading through the post and not having to meet up in game.

No to all bonus xp rewards, stop trying to make the game slowly more like RS3. Other then that the rewards are fine. And so they said they wouldn't bring the G.E. To OSRS, so they just change the name to trading post and think they can just have it do the same thing? Definitely voting no to no face to face trading. Please Jagex stop trying to make the game easier! Your going to lose tons of members going down the same path as RS3

And remove double runes from barrows and bonus xp for mlm, that's just ridiculous. All of you who want the G.E. And bonus xp please go back to RS3 and stop trying to ruin OSRS for the rest of us who actually enjoy a challenging game and don't want to be spoonfed levels and items.

An example could be that for instance with the fee on the unfinish potion making, perhaps make it from easy start. Then the higher stage you complete (medium,hard,elite) the fee will lower by 10%, 20%, 30%.
This will have some money sink in the game and make it so people do the easy one aswell.

You could say the same if they kept the game completely the same. I played for about a month or two when OS came out, but as I only really like to slay/boss, I stopped playing as it got stale fast. Then I read they added slayer helm/slayer points, new slayer cave, new slayer monsters/slayer boss monsters and gwd, that brought me straight back. This is just an example how adding stuff "that rs3 has" brought someone back to playing.

The game cannot stay the same, improvements to exp rates/better gear etc eventually have to come, no matter how insignificant they are.

Also double runes from barrows is perfectly fine, they're needed at this point looking at how cheap some of the items are, and this is coming from someone who doesn't ever do barrows.

The bonus exp is minimal, for example 10% bonus slayer exp for slaying inside the slayer tower? Do you not see that it's just trying to give you an incentive to go to the slayer tower instead of everyone just using Nieve's cave?

A few thoughts..

I really like the private chin area reward and was thinking, instead of giving bonus xp rewards, why not unlock more private resource areas that provide better xp by being less populated or closer to a bank. For example, maybe ore veins can be added to the interior walls of the Motherlode mine, closer to the bank and apparatus. Adding deposit boxes to various locations can also assist in this.

Many skillers like myself aren't into pvp whatsoever so can we create something to help them out in pvp situations? Any time I'm in the wildy I don't risk any items and if I get pk'd, it's because I'm not risking much. Iam rather helpless defensively in these situations and a target for an easy kill. It's for situations like these that I suggest the following rewards for the wilderness diaries:

-ability to change Ghorrock teleport to inside kbd lair (elite with 96 magic req)
-teleportation spells work 10 levels further in the wilderness while wildy sword is equipped (hard)
-teleblock duration is reduced to 1 min if wildy sword is equipped
-increasing Mage def bonus on wildy sword (up to +40 or higher)

To avoid organized pvp repercussions, perhaps the Mage def bonus can be applicable only when the sword is worn with two other diary items (or any other combination of non pvp items).


A couple other ideas:
-unlimited or reduced sprint rates within varrock city/castle walls
-less daily rewards (I thought we were going to stay away from daily tasks that 'force' players to keep up) OR daily rewards that add up for a period up to a week (250 flax a day can be harvested once a week for 1750 flax at once)
-construction benefits such as reduced butler times and or fee.
-more new spells or skill unlocks that still require high skill levels AND elite diary completion.
