Clan Wars game modes and tweaks


Should we introduce a new Clan Wars game mode called Timed Deathmatch? Clans could choose a set amount of time and the team with the most kills by the end of it would win.

Yes, adding this feature to Clan Wars would make clan arranged fighting even more enjoyable.

Should we introduce a new Clan Wars game mode called Team Oddskull? Clans could compete to hold a skull for the longest, killing each other to get possession of the skull. The clan that holds the skull for the most time wins.

Similar to catch the flag, Team Oddskull presents an interesting dynamic to the already existing clan wars minigame. It would add variety to the otherwise simple features of clan wars.

Should we make some small changes to the Clan Wars Classic map to make it play more like the original?

Most definitely. Please enable maging and ranging over walls.

Wilderness related changes


Should the wilderness bosses drop very rare pets of themselves?

Please do. The already existing miniature pet versions of other RuneScape bosses is a great idea. It gives PvM an extra reward to strive for. However, I think it would be a little awkward to receive the Chaos Fanatic and Crazy Archaeologist as a miniature pet... They would look pygmy and plain weird, unless you make their pet version regular size.

Should we add a very rare Scorpia pet to the Scorpia drop table?
Yes.

Should we replace the wilderness ditch with a less intrusive barrier that offers the same level of protection against luring? Players would be given a warning when attempting to run past the barrier. This warning would be toggleable.

I am indifferent to the idea. So long as the notification can be toggled on and off, it is fine either way.

Should teleblock be made usable by F2P players?

YES! Magic is already lacking in P2P as it is. At least in F2P it would give users a higher level to strive for.

Should items dropped inside the wilderness and PvP worlds appear instantly? This would prevent players griefing PKers by dropping items.

For most items, yes. I mean, PKers go to the effort of battling another player to receive their loots. Only for it to be dropped and reclaim, it severely diminishes the 'risk' of PKing this way. So for most items to appear, it would avoid the entire griefing scenario. In fact, I have watched quite a few YouTube videos of such happening, and I feel pretty bad for the player that did not receive their loot.

Everything else


Should we allow players to hide messages from above the heads of other players unless they contain chosen words? This would work in the same way that you are able to currently able to 'filter' autochat and would make it easier to find people buying or selling what you are looking for.

Yes please. This is a very good QOL feature that should be added. Not only would it completely remove a flood of advertisements in W301, it will, as suggested, aid in finding sought out items a lot faster. Not only that, it could also be used in a way to remove spam from auto typers and or macros that advertise FCs and YouTube videos, etc.

Should you be able to press the spacebar to continue through NPC dialogue and use number keys to select from options that appear in the chatbox? You would still be able to click the options with your mouse as normal.

This should be added. When completing quests, particularly quests I have completed several times over on numerous accounts, it is rather tedious clicking through the same dialogue. While I do like reading the dialogue of quests I have never completed before, or quests that are storywise, enjoyable, skipping dialogue with the spacebar would be a great convenience to tedious and lengthy dialogue.

Should we change the accurate attack style of the Godswords to slash from crush? The Godswords have a slash attack bonus of +132 compared to the crush attack bonus of +80.

That would be logical, although it would make the damage of Godswords a little more dangerous with increased accuracy... It doesn't really make sense to have a Godsword crush on the accurate style with a stronger slash.

Should the message that appears in your chatbox when a ring of recoil breaks be changed to make it more noticeable?

Yes.

Should it be made possible to share super combat potions using the Lunar spell Boost Potion Share? Using this spell consumes 1 dose for each person that receives the boost.

The entire point of Boost Potion Share is to distribute potions among your team or clan members. Why should this be any different for the Super Combat Potion? Please enable this.

Should the requirement to vote in content polls be increased from 280 total level to 300 total level and at least 25 hours played? For this to work we will have to remove the ability to vote through the website.

I am not entirely sure how I feel about such a change, or the already existing feature. As a paying member of OSRS, we should be able to shape the game without being restricted from voting in the polls. On the other hand, such restrictions would probably weed out players who are serious about changes being made, and people voting for the sake of voting (assuming this happens).

I am completely indifferent to the idea of this change.

Additional Grand Exchange tweaks


Should we add a button to the main offer screen of the Grand Exchange that allows you to collect all unclaimed items in a single click?

Why not? It would save you clicking on every single unclaimed item.

Ayisha X said :
As someone who long ago learned she can't pk, I don't enter the wildy if at all possible. Being killed for lulz and cb xp while hunting penguins in eoc reaffirms this.

I would love to see something like a rev-era world too and was thinking of posting to that effect, but, there must be content/ rewards for pking wildy-based activities that could be devalued by such worlds. For example, I'm going to have to take a good hard look at myself to decide whether I'll aim for an achievement cape in the future.

Hey Ayisha... just letting you know you have just commented the most confusing ever comment I've ever read in the whole Runescape forums history, no joke... but I think I still got it after reading a few times. :P
