Yes, that's exactly what I'm implying. As is 90% of the PvP clan community. Again, we know this first hand from the first time around.
The first time around, the wilderness was flat out removed, in a mechanical sense. There literally was NO chance for ANYONE to do any sort of clan fighting outside of Clan Wars, and perhaps Fight Pits.

So as much as you can say Clan Wars was the cause of a drop in wilderness activity, I can say that most of the people using Clan Wars would not have been in the wilderness in the first place.

Again, i'll just refer to what I said before:

This isn't some new idea that hasn't been tried before. It existed for years so for the most part we know the sort of effect it will likely have.

Obviously when the CWA was released it was a replacement for the wilderness, I know this very well thank you. But it existed for many years after PvP worlds, Bounty Hunter, and the old wilderness was re-introduced. For the most part, we know the sort of effect it will have because of that.

And again, just because some people who have fights in CW wouldn't otherwise have fights in the wilderness doesn't mean that applies to everyone or even a majority of those having fights there.

So you're just speculating that Clan Wars is going to significantly impact the wilderness, based on the status of your clan world years after a wilderness-less game? Well, I can speculate otherwise. In fact, I'm doing it right now.

Besides, I'm not sure why you're so worried if players chose to fight wars in Clan Wars instead of the wilderness. Since wilderness warring is better, shouldn't players chose it over Clan Wars?

My opinions and concerns


Question: Should we release safe Clan Wars with a selection of arenas?
Yes. I like the clan vs clan aspect of clan wars. The ability to challenge an entire clan was a nice feature.

Question: Clan Wars..king of the hill
Question: Clan Wars..team oddskull
Question: Clan Wars..target deathmatch
Question: Clan Wars..timed deathmatch
Yes, I like the idea of new game modes.

Question: Clan Wars FFA
Yes, I particularly enjoyed the FFA area. Im worried about the impact on other games such as castle wars. Many player's preferred just entering the FFA portal at clan wars over waiting for a game to start at castle wars. Castle wars became lots less popular after soul wars and clan wars. That's not something I want to see.

--------

Question: Treasure trail expansion
I like the idea of adding mostly cosmetic things which are a good source of money (because of their rarity).

--------

Question: Fighter hat..45-40 def
It has most slash bonus, dont change.

Question: Trouble Brewing outfits..in your house
Yes

Question: Ahrim's staff..auto-cast Sara Strike
I prefer the sara staff restriction. Maybe Ahrim's staff can be buffed in some other way.

Question: Gem & Coal bags from motherlode mine.
Yes, and more rewards in addition!

Question: Pet options
Just stop players from using pets to prevent players from looting items.

Question: Prospector's outfit..desert robes
Yes

Question: Spec button indicate..enough energy
I prefer just showing the % of spec on the bar.

Question: Toggle smoke in smokey well
New quest! What about a smoke machine?!

Question: Toggle warning
Yes

Question: Dep box..Warriors Guild
Dont care

Question: Improve black sallies
Yes make it competitive with chins

Question: Decide where attack option appears
No, team capes and combat level are fine.

Question: Operate menus
Yes, very useful

Thanks :)

We'd also like to take this opportunity to release the minigame reward shop which you voted for in Poll 14. This shop will offer a coordinate kit that stores your sextant, watch, chart and spade as well as elite clue scrolls at a very high cost.

Need clarification on the bolded part. I took it that you can buy elite clues from the store. My boyfriend took it that you can store an elite clue in the kit.

If it is buyable can that please be polled separately so the other part can pass? Also make it more clear in the blog so people don't vote against it if they read it as I have. RS3 Main: Queen Noob ; RS3 Ironman: Verrakai ; OSRS Main: Paksenarrion

You can always duel the person. Since, you know, they're a significantly different combat level than you.
