what music will be playing in the boss fight area? will it just be attack5?

I'd like to make it dig up something appropriate for a boss that you're currently fighting.

My instinct is NOT to unlock the KBD's own music track for people who haven't been to the KBD. I remember it being a big deal for me, back in the day, when I finally dared to unlock that track.

Personally i am for this update but for the sake of the game and to ensure it gets backing it might be wiser to offer armour sets that degrade to dust; similar to the revenant armour drops. Much less OP of course.

Given a full set of dev tools and compilers, we could import other MIDI files. For example, there's a whole bunch of music in our archive for half-written projects, including GWD. And, of course, it's easy to make MIDI files with free software if you're into that sort of thing. I'd even consider taking player submissions! (That's how I got to write almost all the music for my Love Story quest.)

Sadly, we don't have a compiler to integrate new music into the OSRS codebase, so that's not an option just now.

Ever thought about adding Clan Wars instead? I mean did it come out in 2007, so why not?

Totally. However, without a map editor, we can't make a battlefield. Also, the game engine doesn't have some of the functionality I used back in '07 to handle chat-channels. (Clan Wars uses game engine features that were created for LootShare.) So if we tried to make Clan Wars now, we'd have a few limitations:
- it'd have to take place in a copy of an existing area, like the KBD lair.
- it wouldn't be able to use chat-channels. We could use cape colours instead.

This looks awesome! Really glad to see some actual new content being added into the old school servers. The rewards seem decent but I think the 'Hard Mode' version should offer different rewards/points than the normal one. (Like off-pieces to the lvl 50 gear such as capes, necklace and ring).

Either way it looks fantastic, keep it up!
