You could also say the Tentacle is a living breathing thing! It grows in power everytime you feed it a whip.

You can 'feed' your tentacle up to 6 Whips which increases its attack bonuses two point each and its strength and pray by one point.

This would mean your tentacle whip would have maxed stats of +94 Slash and +88 Str and +6 Prayer.

In addition to this it would require the consumption of 6 whips in order to reach this status. You could keep the special attack but have a clause where the tentacle reverts back to its unendowed form if dropped in wildy.
I might like this idea more but there's an issue with what happens when it gets dropped. It could potentially be a very powerful weapon with no real risk.

make it drop half the invested whips rounded down so 2 whips invested pker gets 1 when its full the pker will get 3 whips. and when you die with it from pvm and you make it back it shouldnt really revert since almost no items do that.
this way there is still good loot when it's a strong whip and there is a also a big item sink so win-win situation.

If you die with it in wildy your killer recieves half the vested whips rounded down but no tentacle. This would mean that killing someone with this will still provide you with a nice pk reward, but will also in turn serve as an item sink for the tentacle base itself/

what do the mods and other people think of this ? i feel like both options should be polled. thats my opinion.

Pking definitely does NOT need more OP items. Especially the 10% magic damage boost is just way too much. You have 85 magic please do not make suggestions if you do not know what you are talking about.

What manner of idiot tells Bwuk Im PB that he knows nothing about magic?

Please, adding 10% more mage damage on top of Staff of light(of the dead) would just be stupid. Don't make it 2013 again with ridiculous 40 damage ice barrages.

I laughed at this moron. Funny how he comments yet all I see him do is rag range with an AGS in PvP worlds. Power ammy, black d'hide and an AGS. The lulz are real.

Once again, support the fact it will have a huge impact on PKer's and none of us want this in the PK scene, apart from maybe the kids that sit in PvP worlds and just barrage/AGS rush people from a safe spot.
We're heading to the point where you could be at pre-eoc;

I could hit 542 with mage, use vengeance, have 200ish slash def, heal with ss and have only 100 combat with 1m risk. Obviously I "abused" it for free loot but it was completely stupid. Well my opinion here won't matter too much since 90% of the playerbase is disgusting skillers anyway. 1. This game is nowhere near Pre-eoc, get your head out of your ass.

2. If anything, the largest majority of this game are PKers. Skillers are the minority, proven by the fact that we haven't gotten a single update, yet combat and PKing has received plenty.

Thanks for answering my questions John :) I've been looking forward to this for so long! It's a shame there is no love for range in this update but other than that it's all very promising.

We've still got some wilderness bosses to give some unique drops to, I'm sure we can find something range related.

I think for 87 and 93 slayer, kraken boss and smoke devil boss need to be god wars dungeon tier bosses with some sort of amazing/rare loot that wouldn't effect the pking community much. smoke battle staff and a vine whip that degrades my whip are a tad bit disappointing for 87+ slayer BOSSES *****;3 still happy to see the new updates though and thankful for your hard work

Nobody asked the big question yet;

When will we vote on Godsword tentacles(so some smoke imbue item)? Gotta make it like 50-150k hits though to make up for the costs. But yeah, lets make sinks for them all.

ZS/hasta doesn't even poison yet.

The reward has to stay worth it if you want to kill abby demons, really evaluate if 10k is the right amount of hits or not, cause the whips price will be more dependant on the time it lasts. After everyone is 99 att/str/def they don't need a whip to train, yeah not everyone is maxed, but one day more people will be. And after that you will only want the best for bossing/pvp.

will the smoke battlestaves be a fairly common or a rare drop? and will they have an unique look?

They'll have a unique-ish look, certainly won't be a recolored elemental staff anyway.
We've not set a drop rate yet but it won't be stupidly rare.
