New armour and weapons eh? No boss to drop them?? Does this mean we may finally be getting back to balancing skills and bossing ?
I sure hope so..
It would be nice to trade a few hundred hours of skilling for a high end weapon and armour set that is useful .. Just don't go and make them overpowered in pvp/pvm and be sure they are tradable .

I'm mortified at the levels of hatred for this update, especially since so much of it revolves around how Zeah will affect PVP and PVM, which is only a very small part of the game, regardless of its popularity.
The announcement of Zeah is the sole thing which brought me back to Runescape again. I quit EOC because like a lot of OSRS players, it grew too unfamiliar to me from what I liked to play. When OSRS came out, I was on it within the first week and played for a whole year before the nostalgia wore off and I stopped playing again.
When I heard about Zeah, for me it promised new adventures - A massive new area to explore with the potential for new quests, new achievement diaries, new items, new music, new characters, new monsters and perhaps even new skills. It gave me an incentive to come back and train my skills again in preparation to explore this new area and hopefully be able to access as much of it as possible, and for that reason I hope that it does offer lots of high end game content because otherwise for me, knowing I will never top the highscores, there is no real reason to progress any further than I have.
I can understand how many players are cautious about updates that drastically influence how they play the game, but when I see outrage about things like the Artisan skill or Sailing or a whole new area, which have the potential to bring so much good into the game, I'm astonished. People already hate every aspect of Zeah and we have no idea what it will be like.
Why so pessimistic? I know I'm not the only player who came back because of Zeah. Jagex are putting a lot of effort into making it great and are updating us constantly along the way. Have faith, don't put down everything from the Lizard men to the new Spellbook before you even know what it's going to be like.
Personally I can't wait and I'm optimistic about what Zeah will bring. Give it a chance.

Remember Chaotics? Remember Korasi's? Remember summoning? Remember ancient curses? Remember EoC? Remember Squeal of Fortune? Remember Zulrah? Remember NMZ?
There's an extraordinarily high chance that that an update this large could bring about significant negative consequences or fundamentally alter game balance. There's optimism, and then there's just downright ignorance.

- A new race of Lizardmen to battle
How original. Oh alright, I'll give it a chance as long as the lore doesn't get butchered.
Hey, Jagex gets to finally use the Lizardmen models they showed off at osrs' 1st birthday event.
They were originally going to be in RuneScape, same with the mammoths and they added those in the revamped wildy.
I want to be excited for Zeah, but now reading about "blast mining" I am very afraid of this becoming like RS3's elf city. In case nobody is aware of what elf city was, it was basically a one stop shop for most skills in the game with all very afk and op xp rates. It made pretty much most rest of the game world trivial if everything could be done in elf city with much higher xp rates. It's one way to kill the game pretty fast imo.
