What about Rapid Renewal? Can we get that prayer put on the poll as well?

Rapid renewal/Rapid heal all that stuff... So useless..

No Soul Wars. please & thankyou

How about those penguin shrubberies?

Why not just add pre-eoc Runescape lmao
2007-based server will get boring over the years,
it's boring for me now.


I'll quit.



That being said, I feel more attention should be paid to the wilderness than minigames.
Long live the Wilderness. Long live risk vs reward in PVM. Long live 2006.

Barb assault is dead, it's too hard to find a team! Make another way to get a torso!!!!


Barbarian assault is dead which is why fighter legs wont help at all. Long term goal needed for BA PLEASE - refilling horn, tickets and such were great boost for BA in rs3 :] Single reward wont help, neither does matchmaking - yes players like imRatio (and others who find it diffiicult to find team) can get team easier, but the rest of minigame would be deserted, who would go to wave 1 and wait for people there? Answer is: NO ONE.

To us, who love Barbarian Assault minigame, the main reason to go there is to meet our friends and foes and have fun, share information and just enjoy playing the minigame. Most of us may have achieved every reward and skill there is to BA, but it's the community that keeps us BA'ing. Please don't kill the BA community! :]

When I skill I prefer skilling only, don't like the idea of matchmake system finding you a team just when you're in middle of farming run or slayer task. Would there be time to bank? Have to tele to minigame yourself? I wouldn't mind playing Barbarian Assault with no armour, but most of players that may be too much.

Sorry my favorite topic here :]

hey there, well i know this probably isn't the right thread to post stuff like this, but i feel it is related to the minigame part, okay so i've always though ever since i knew 07 was coming out that you guys over at jagex should add in the stuff like mining xp outfits (like in runescape 3) from stuff like the lava flow mines (as an example) i know you guys probably wouldn't add in the lava flow mines back because its so far past 07's time, but; i really think you guys should think about this because for me atleast i only came back to runescape 07 was because i missed how it was before eoc, but if you always do these polls then people will get what they want from runescape 07. this is just my opinion. summary: do polls to expand past the 2007 rs and see if people would embrace a few of those updates

Concerning the whole "Free runes with castle wars topic",
If the limitation only goes upto death runes (So player must supply own Blood runes) would be ideal, and would cut some of the 'costs' to mage during Castle Wars.

Those against it and think Free runes shouldn't be around, please...please go get 94Mage and barrage in Castle wars and THEN look at the amount spent to simply Have some *FUN!*.

Mini-Games are designed to have fun and be exciting, not for rewards and to make it favour one style.

Runes over-time become quite expensive, yet for Melee, you buy a weapon and armour, and can re-sell it for the same value at any given time. No money lost. (Assuming you don't get ripped off).

Magic, you're always losing money when doing combat, so at the end of the day is it even worth using magic there? Nope.

I don't see the hassle in allowing FREE RUNES completely, Just make it a limitation on how many you can have at once. (of course this means there is either no xp or very LITTLE xp gained)
In other words, lets say you start off with 200Casts of Ice Barrage. You get 10kills and have used all your 200 casts. For those 10 kills you gain 100 casts.
(So you can 10 casts per kill)
If there are loads of barrages, Most will lose runes. Might i add, if you're finding it that hard to kill a Mage, level up your skills and continue on.

I use to Hybrid/tri-brid whatever everyone calls it nowadays, during rs2/rs3 all the time. Mage got costly but it was well worth the fun when going up against multiple people or simply having a 1v1.

I play oldschool to re-live the excitement and joy I use to get out of the game. Just means I need to get maxed again and be on with it.

Hopefully my post isn't all over the place and people get my view that I'm sure others see.

This is starting to sound scary... Some of the things in the dev blog sound nice, but others just sound like things that belong and should stay in EoCScape.
I will not mention questions that I have no preference/opinion about.

Matchmaking system:
I think this could be good to help minigames become more active.

Minigame reward shop:
It could have potential, but I do NOT like any of the example rewards.
If the bonecrusher absolutely has to be added, I think it should have a high Prayer level requirement to use. (85+?)

Recolouring items:
Please no...

Castle Wars:
Flags outside the game: I don't see a problem with that.
Everything else relating to CW: No.
Free runes is ridiculous, even if the XP is lowered. 10% of kills being translated into tickets completely defeats the purpose of Castle Wars.

Blast Furnace:
Bank: No, this would allow players to spam-buy ores and world hop for more.
Lower requirement: I do not think this should be done either.

Barbarian Assault:
I don't think "Fighter legs" should be a reward.

Shades of Mort'ton:
Splitbark armour def reqs: Should not be changed.

Trouble Brewing:
Probably the most under-rated and dead minigame; I think that players should be able to play without completing Cabin Fever.
Removing cooking requirement: I don't mind.

Nieve chat via Lunar: Yes, the other slayer masters are there.

Fishing/Herblore shops sell packs: I do not think this should happen.

Game applet show health etc: A lot of people are using the client to do this anyway, and if it can be toggled, then I don't think it can hurt.

Zamorakian spear single-handed: I do not want this to happen. It is already a powerful enough weapon. I feel that this could devalue Old School's whips that most of us love.

Fruit tree patch in Lletya: I think this should be added. I actually went looking for it whilst farming, had no idea it wasn't in the game.

Please be careful with what you plan to poll, Jagex. Please.
