I range somewhere between skeptical and no to most new ideas set for a poll.

I am extremely excited for sailing. I honestly hope that if you haven't yet,
you look at San's well worded and long running thread in Suggestions.
San's thread may not be the first thread on sailing, but it's the best one in my opinion.

Waste of time what a load of horse .... worst case senero this comes in game it would be a million times better as a mini game your forcing people to do the skill for the better rewards this will be getting a no vote from me and alot of people i have spoke to have also said the same you can get this skill out in a few months why waste time on that when we want new quests and more for slayer ect i think you need to start listening to the community a little more and your kind forcing it on us with the prayers no vote from me for as long as you come up with stupid ideas like this goodnight and god bless

It's been on poll suggestions for ages.. and it's actually a skill if you think on it.. this isn't anything like a mini game lol


What i am saying is its like dung really it would be alot better as a mini game i dont understand why you need a skill to build a ship con crafting would be ship making and maybe smithing it idk man i personally dont like it but i respect your views also each to there own id vote yes for mini game no for a skill i think we should perfect the skills we have and then go on for a skill

Love it. Please be sure beyond sure that the mechanics of sailing are sufficiently old school. No hand holding; make it dangerous, make it challenging. I trust this is something that is always on the frontal lobe with this dev team.

Overall it actually sounds nice.

I won't vote yes for it though simply because of Rigour. I loved it for PvM but it will create even further issues with void rangers risking nothing for the best dps in the game

The thing is, some people want a "new" skill in OSRS, but any skill idea that isn't Summoning or Dunge is just considered ****. I think Sailing could be wonderful, if done properly.

I think some cool ideas for the skill would be you could get Slayer assignments on islands or caves that only Sailing could get you to. Or new farming patches on various islands you need a certain Sailing level to travel to. Maybe even an island that has a WHOLE bunch of skilling activities, even a bank. But, to get to this island to need a certain Sailing level.

My feelings on it are similar to Zeah, there is potential and promises. But so far I haven't seen anything yet.

I think they should tackle such ambitious projects one at a time. There is so little we know about Zeah, and it doesn't seem to progress. We've only seen some vague discription about every part. And now we get an even more ambitious project.

From what I see, it would be a combination of POH and dungeoneering: 2 minigames in RS3,
many rewards, along with a hopefully optional sailing pvp minigame.

My suggestion for a further possible reward: caves with green dragons and earth warriors out of the wildy. I hate it my slayer task forces me to become pk prey.
