This all sounds interesting to say the least. I do have one gripe though, I do not like to pvp and there are plenty of others who don't pvp either. As long as the PvP is similar to the wild ill pay more attention to the dev blogs on this subject, ill have to wait to see the next blog to see how PvP will be integrated into this skill... but if its mandatory no ty! I do think this game is in need of new content im not super excited about a new skill rather than just new items or monsters but if its done right I guess I cant complain. just please no RS3 skills... please..

Also to everyone wanting dungeoneering and summoning.... no... just. no...

Very disappointing "hype". I hope this will be polled atleast,so the community can have a chance to say if they want it or not.

It says in the dev blog that this will be polled.

Does it? Could you tell me which paragraph/line? I can't find it.

Vote “no” to Sailing. We can get these rewards in other ways.

Also, forcing PvP in a *skill” is just wrong. In my 10+ years of having a Runescape account I have NEVER once took part in PvP. I would like to keep it that way.

This isn't about simply gaining rewards. That's the mindset that too many players have nowadays. This is about adding new and original content to the game.

I'm also pretty sure they wont be forcing people to participate in PvP in the skill. If you take the time to read the developer's blog it says you can train the skill without fighting


My fear would be that in order to get the desired rewards from Sailing players would have to enter "dangerous seas". Similar to how Black chinchompas are placed in the Wilderness to bring skillers into PvP territory.

That's honestly you're own fault then. By choosing to avoid PvP, you are avoiding a major part of the game. It's your own choice and it shouldn't affect the choices of others. They shouldn't avoid releasing content that involves some PvP just because skillers want to avoid it.

Or they can implement a completely optional PvP mode for those who want to participate instead of hiding end game content behind a game play style that some don't enjoy.

I don't want to see any more skills added. Lots of skills need refining as it is, which hasn't been addressed properly according to a lot of the community. Why add more when the current ones aren't up to the best of their abilities?
Especially not sailing. this seems like a very silly skill, probably dead content.
You guys need to be careful what you release at this point, a bad skill will deter a lot of players and lose a lot of memberships.
Ship building sounds like a bad version of construction and i can already smell the bots that are going to be collecting the resources for these builds. as it is construction is the most expensive skill to train and has so much potential but is lost with poor execution.
New and exciting items? sounds like more bis items that will crash the current economy terribly.
I think this skill should be polled out not added without a poll, as my opinion might not be the masses. Runecraft is a creep. :|
