yes, yes, and yes and bank tabs please?


I would vote for this first before I start voting yes or no on OP gear.

You're basically just giving high levels even more cash gains from whips.
A few months ago, what happened to "melee being overpowered"? Now we have a recycled vine whip idea from RS3?

Mila,

From the Dev time it makes sense that having 3 tiers would be better than 6.

75 Attack = Feed Two Whips to Tentacle for Tentacle F1
+4 Slash +2 Str +1 Prayer

80 Attack = Feed Two Whips to a Tentacle F1 for Tentacle F2
+8 Slash +4 Str +2 Prayer

85 Attack = Feed Two Whips to a Tentacle F2 for Tentacle F3
+12 Slash + 6 Str +3 Prayer

Voting no on both of these items, here we go with the start of OP weapons coming into the game.

Whipping 48's with max strength bonus and barraging 38-39 with the necklace and staff of dead.

Nah, not for me. Sorry.


I agree, tbh.
I don't like the poison damaged added to the whip. How will this affect stakers who choose to use dds/whip? Some already use one 1h-zspear. What about pking?
This will definitely crash the prices of other weapons for sure.


I also agree with you

Currently abyssal whips are 1.1-1.3m. Already seeing more buy offers than sell offers, the people selling are asking for 1.5m+. This is just from the hype, imagine once the update happens and whips are removed from the game. We're looking at easily 2m-2.5m+ which would make your idea too expensive for a measly +6 additional strength. I'm afraid no one will pay 15m+ for a tier 3 (only at the bonuses you suggest, however if higher scaling then sure they will)

It should be scaled at +4, +6, +8 at the very least. (Strength bonuses)


There are three reasons I chose 6 whips over 3. First is it rids the economy of lots of whips. Second it gives options for PKers, it doesnt turn into a one item ragging device, and that create an item sink for the tentacle base itself. Third this item would be the single best melee weapon in the game. I don't think 15m is too much to ask especially as they can incur those costs when they can afford it as time goes by.

I still think dragon plate cover drop is a better drop then the Mage ammy

I would like to see Dragon plate/pickaxe as quest related. I miss the wilderness quest such as (summer's end?) with the spirit shield.

I would like to see you add drops to hellhounds ... i have a thread in the forums about adding drops to hellhounds .... there are alot of people who support this idea. Maybe just add drops to the hellhounds in the slayer cave. I would rather have all hellhounds have drops, but ill settle for the ones in the slayer cave.
