Always enjoy seeing DevBlogs/Polls, please bare with the lengthy feedback :/
To start off, I'd Like to address CW. Personally, I could vote either way on most of these and would rarely feel the effect, so I'll try to vote in favor of the CW Community. So far it seems to be split in a couple areas that I'd like to discuss and get some CW Community responses, and if Devs have any input please share as well
1. Free Runes, which are you more against and why: Potentially increased amount of Ice Barrages or "Free" Xp.
- I don't see why there isn't a table with free runes and bolts/arrows(with Ranged Strength equal to Ranged Level(/2 for arrows)) both granting lower Xp and being destroyed on death. I'd like to vote 'Yes', but it feels 50/50 from posts so let me know why you're for/against.
2. Kill Streak, I get where most are coming from here so how about instead of a Kill Streak you get Score Streak/Score Breaker?
-Score Streak unlocks buffs after every score past the first without dying, the Score Streak degrades overtime refreshing after a score. Score Streak is completely lost at death.
-Score Breaker is given to a player who kills someone with a Score Streak. Score Breaker is set to the same value as the Score Streak from the defeated player. Score Breaker will be completely lost after an amount of time based on the starting value(no degrading/refreshing) or at death.
-Streak Buffs: Increased Hp, Increased Defence, Better Healing Rates, Reduced Prayer Drain, Reduced Bind Times.
-Breaker Buffs: Increased Accuracy, +X%Damage, Attacks Reduce Enemy Defence, Energy Drain, Damage Slightly Restore Prayer+Hp
*Remember I don't play CW very much, so if these aren't useful buffs please use better ones lol*
3. Bandages, these are Energy Restoring 2-Click Thoroughly Cooked Karambwan(at best) right?
- I'm on the fence with this one and since it is a reward I'd like every ones feedback.

Post 2-Continued from Above
This next part is more so aimed at the OSRS Team, however I'd still like to hear player input as well
Matchmaker and Incentives
1. Teleport, instead of/along with a cooldown, can it take you to a holding area that prevents you from leaving and if you do it just sends you back to where you were originally(to help cut down on abuse)? I do think the teleporting feature or something similar is needed though to make this work.
2. Bonecrusher, while I support this fully I would like to know if it will be degradable?
3. Rune pouch, is there a limit on what runes that can be stored in it? Can you elaborate some more for clarity? I like the idea, would just like a little more info on it.
4. Rigour/Augury, I still don't understand why these weren't release with Piety originally, those many years ago. However is there any chance you guys could stat the boost of Augury to incorporate a small damage buff?
5. Clue Scrolls, I think its a fair trade off of time but I'm on the fence still. No Real Feedback
Whip Re-colour Vs Power Whip PvP Drop
Any Level of re-colouring I'll vote through as it doesn't have any negative effects and I'm pretty sure development time is 15s + sever reboot, if I remember correctly lol. However, if the option is either-or than I would rather have an item sink, which would ideally include other item conversion drops from PvP Worlds. This new system is a larger discussion for another time though.

Post 3-Continued from Above
Barbarian Assault - Fighter Legs
Personally, I think this is awesome and its already got my 'Yes' vote, this is just offering stating feedback. So far I've seen 2 popular suggestions for this item, I'd also like to propose a third option I haven't seen mentioned yet and that is to have the Fighter Legs have Attack Bonuses. I would be okay with any of these 3 stating choices:
1. Stats of Rune Platelegs with +1 Strength.
2. Stats to appropriately mimic the Fighter Torso with +2 Strength(I prefer this one of the Two Popular suggestions)
3. Stats to appropriately mimic the Fighter Torso with +8-12 Slash/Crush/Stab Attack Bonus. I think this approach would help solve the "Devalue Tassets" reason that seems to be popular against Fighter Legs, which is completely understandable, while also offering variety in setup choices. As for another protected item... again another discussion for another time.
Shades of Mort'ton - Splitbark
1. I feel standard loot should be made more rewarding and some very rare tradable equipment upgrades to be added as incentive, rather than removing a Def Req on Splitbark which doesn't help with its odd stats and how common it is.
2. Removing the Splitbark Def Req would leave Skeletal in an Odd place
- Those things being said, it would be nice to see Splitbark actually get some use so I'll most likely vote 'Yes', but still on the fence.
Zamorakian Spear - The negative feedback I've seen seems to be stemming from the fact the question sounds like you just want to change it from 2h to 1h rather than requiring an in-game cost for doing so. Could you better explain how it will be implemented?
The rest seems pretty strait forward and welcomed. Overall a very odd assortment of Poll Questions, but that's not a bad thing.
Thank you for your time as this was longer than expected lol :/, and thank you OSRS Team for your hard work
