I like the ideas!
But 1 remark.
The Kraken Tentacle will make the abyssal whip poisonous, however the Kraken itself is not poisonous. This is a bit odd.
As you mentioned the Kraken Boss in this post, I believe it is an upcoming update.
--------------
Ideas to improve could be:
introduce both Kraken Tentacle + Kraken Tentacle (p)
The Cave Kraken will drop a regular kraken tentacle, which only raises stats.
Make the upcoming Kraken boss poisonous.
Let the boss drop both the kraken tentacle and a kraken tentacle (p).
The latter being slightly more rare, because it is stronger.
- The normal version's special attack will only bind and deal a 100% damage (just a normal hit you would do in general)
- The poisoned version's special attack will bind, deal damage (100%), and also a greater chance to poison the target. (perhaps deal a stronger poison with the same trigger rate as normal hits)
Both will obviously consume the whip after set amount of hits dealt.
---------------
This will make it more logical, as the cave kraken is not poisonous and thus drops a non-poisonous tentacle.
And in turn, the boss could be made poisonous and thus drop a poisonous variant, which only differ from the normal in that it poisons the target.

Original message details are unavailable.
These are both very good ideas. They really surprised me.
Here are a few optional suggestions.
Make it so the Kranken Tentacle
Secondly, consider allowing it to be usable on other slayer items such as the trident, gmaul, and dbow. It would give these items a nice sink and raise their prices, as well as keep the Tentacle at a hefty price since it has so much use. You would just need to think of what bonuses it would give each item without making it too OP.
Lastly, instead of adding a 'str' feature, destroying the sarasword, perhaps allow the Tentacle to switch remove the lash feature, or remove the defense xp given with controlled so you only get attack and strength xp. This would be a big demand for pures, initiate pures, and berserker pures. I know a lot of people don't like pures BUT that would create a HUGE item sink without affecting the ss.
Good drop. I approve. Consider adding a few more drops since it requires such high slayer? Perhaps barrows boots and a range amulet?
But make the range amulet rarer then the others because range is pretty OP as it is. Or don't allow the range amulet to be used with void.
Those are my 2 cents
Very good ideas, especially being able to use the tentacle on other slayer items, this will ensure that slayer remains profitable

Kranken Tentacle.

cannot be saved by the protect item prayer.
This way, IF people wanted to use the Tentacle in the wilderness they must be willing to risk 1m+. This would also give pkers an incentive to fight those who are using this powerful weapon.
