How will degraded equipment work if you wish to take it from someone bank?

Like a used barrows that not 100% or at 0% will we be able to take that from the bank?


I think keys should have a 24 hour timer on them if not used they disappear. so people wont horde keys waiting for people to get better stuff.

Edit: I think the whole gnome stronghold being safe is un-needed. (safe yew/mage tree's)

Other then that I like the idea and what you said/wrote so far. Looking forward to reading an updated post about the finer details now that its going to pass a poll. Looking for love in all the wrong places

I just love hearing all you kids go on about "Well... what if a whole clan is just waiting to pvp you while your doing a quest!"... OK first of all why in the ... would people risk THEIR BANK on little piddly stuff? that is right. They WOULDN'T.

Clans are going to be busy doing important things like killing Bandos and other major bosses.

It just kills me how shortsighted people are. I for one cannot wait for this to be developed its going to be a ton of fun as long as kids realize this game mode is not for the instant gratification crowd and aimed more towards those of us that can see the big picture.


The only one problem i have with the plans so far is the 5x Exp rates. Kinda defeats the purpose of limited resources juuussssttt a little bit in my opinion.

Are you asking why people would risk their bank doing quests? Or why would people risk their bank hunting other players? The same problem still applies to killing Bandos too.

Pretty much the entire game is going to be an arms race... Everyone's going to either rush the gnome stronghold or kick whatever for STR/ATK. The highest level people will venture out and start completing quests and getting better armor/weapon to be better protected against the kicking power of lower levels. Fishing spots will be camped by either clans or people who hate other people, so they'll become rich. Same as the RCers who manage to make it to natures. Fletchers/Alchers/*Cers will never leave the sanctum of gnome stronghold. It will be a bigger trading hotspot than Varrock due to no one completing Gnome Village for tree teleports because it may risk their bank. But the amount of adrenaline... Its going to be a haven for those people like myself. Who begin to shake when all they've worked for is at risk. The excitement. :O

Whens the release date???

Was talking about why would people risk their bank hunting people doing quest.

Yes of course people will take risk killing others in more appropriate scenarios but i just cant see doing quest one of them. Will it happen? of course. Will it happen commonly? no.

I'm sure this will get shot down in a heartbeat but what do people think about not displaying cb lvls? or even making that an option? since anyone can attack anyone anywhere would make things much more interesting in my opinion. But hell, i like an interesting story that is just me.

All you moron haters really should just revert back to RS3 if you're after all this new game content such as quests etc, what is one quest going to do for the runescape community really? nothing, you're idiots, but on the other hand, this is actually an amazing idea. it's not going to take up much dev time whatsoever, considering they'll only make a few tweaks, no game world or graphics mods, 5x exp? if you consider it's 13m exp for 99, 5x is like 2.6 m for a 99, which would actually take at least a week of playing casually, that's if you're not killed anyway. The whole point of this game mode is to be high risk but high reward, hence why the risk aspect sees you lose 50% of your overall exp, and the reward see's you loot someones bank when killing them. and you talk about further dividing the community? well if this mode is going to be as bad as your saying everyone wil revert back to the normal game mode, say there are 40k users online average throughout the day, around 5k maximum will leave for deadman mode tops, so its not like its going to make such an impact, see it as like another minigame, idiots.

I'll take a new quest over a new PvM any day of the week. At least a new quest doesn't need the incentive of making others redundant by introducing new high powered loot every time.
