The cost of recharging will be very low and with Robin offering to exchange bones for bonemeal and slime each day you should have no problem getting enough tokens to keep it going. The recharge mechanic is there to give it a bit of backstory with the ectofunctus rather than an inconvenience.

As you've mentioned, the Bonecrusher is more to clear the ground and it is still available from Hard diaries and I'd expect a fair few people to want to aim for it just for that purpose.


it was a smart thing that you did to offer daily free ecto tokkens to make the bone crusher usefull content when i go on my killin sprees.

True, though I like it being what it is, I've done it 3 times and a half... So I just feel strongly about anything to do with Chompies being changed (with the advantage of half the time, people will go for it instead of not bothering) XD I guess only high totals will have the advantage so... It's not like everyone will have it.


ill cry if they put stuff that is from the trim comp cape for achievement diarys. for the tasks you should just have the high reqs to complete tasks but not force a player to do dead content for the possible new cape because thats just mean :(

I most defiantly support this also, I feel that if you wish to give us things in which seem OP, (Please) make all this elite as 1 only the most skilful players can do it and 2 items will not crash as much, I.E, Flax daily rewards/ P ess daily rewards / Noted mole skins,claws Etc etc... Thank you

On that same topic, as others have suggested, it wouldn't be a bad idea to reuse the Dragon Halberd's special attack. At the least, exclude the effect that the other crystal items have that causes their stats to degrade over time.

Well.. I do like some changes such as the Rellekka swapping of rewards (seems more appropriate) and the increased MLM rewards, as I personally do it for just enjoyment and ore not exp. If I wanted mining exp, I'd go to the quarry with my elite desert headband ;) . Mole locator being moved down to a hard reward is AWESOME. Same with Cloak for PP

But on that note I also REALLY dislike the removal of decreased cannonball smithing times. It's something I will NEVER do in the game at the current rates. Personally, I don't mind buying cannonballs for the tasks I use them on in slayer. I understand this can be decent gold for some people to do at lower smithing levels tho for a little while.. So they don't want to see cannonball prices dropping a bit as it's time consuming.. But at a certain point most people stop doing this as it is such a slow method of exp and of money. Having the cannonball decreased speed time just seemed to be such a perfect thing. Most people don't do it because of how long it takes, but most people do use cannonballs. Also most people have TONS of extra coal in their banks.. Kingdom, Motherlode Mine, etc. Seems like a good way to remove these items from people's banks is to decrease the smith time. Just is more item sinks.. More people cannonballing tasks, more coal consumed, more gp used at kingdoms. So on and so forth.

Also another thing I think should be changed is the 2 chompies will spawn when hunting AFTER completing the elite requirement. Seems awfully redundant doesn't it.. Aside from the new Chompy Pet (lol seriously?) what's the point of doing 4,000 chompy kills or w/e to unlock the elite. Move this reward to Hard and it will inspire people want to get the hard; to then be able to more easily complete elite as well. Seems more rewarding and would pull more people to this diary than 2x spawn for only people who have already finished the elite, and are done catching chompies for the rest of their RS careers.
Last note; noted mole=elite.PLZ

No Bonecrusher please....

Why not? What's wrong with it?

The idea of prayer is to use bones on a altar or bury them yourself. Something in your inventory that just crushes them without an animation is rather confusing to me.

And that's not all, Bonecrusher was added in 2011 with dungeoneering.. 4 years later..
It is not "Old school" period.
Updates like these defeat the purpose of why me and others play it, for Nostaligic reasons.
I personally, (and most of my friends) do not want the old stuff from preoc back, we want either brand new updates for a new experience- Or nothing.


Just quoting this because I agree with the last statement made 100%! I personally would use the bonecrusher as I always wanted one but absolutely hated Dungeoneering (kinda made me quit back in that time) but I do not want to see more "making the game easier" updates. So I could care less if it was scrapped.

*COUGH COUGH JAGEX DRAGON DEFENDER COUGH COUGH* Idiot idea, get over it, Rune Def should always be top tier Defender. IF you want a better DPS item for shield slot, sure I am unapposed to that, just don't make it FREE TO OBTAIN and NEVER DEGRADES.
