You had a ton of feedback on reddit saying how nobody wants a continuation of the caves again. Let us sacrifice capes and start the cave after jad with maybe half an inventory. I'll continue voting no as I don't see the need to waste 30 minutes on the fight caves which i mastered years ago. Seems extremely redundant.

EDIT: Since you guys seem committed to bringing out BIS capes, give us a tormented demon type boss unlocked after monkey madness 2 that rarely drops these capes. The challenge will be in unlocking the grand master quest, at least it's new and unique and offers "replayable" content which is your reasoning for not making quests. Or at least do this for range/mage. No need to be lazy and combine all combat styles into the previously only melee BIS cape event.

I don't post on forums much at all but beriously I don't get why you guys would vote no because it's an extension of the fight caves and it would be "boring"
It's not like you're going to farm these capes for months to make money. Also think of like getting kill count for God Wars, it's boring and nobody likes it but they still do it/get keys to fight the bosses. This would be like a much harder prerequisite for getting to the new content.
Voted yes first time and voting yes again.
I do hope they have a high protect rate so they can be used for zulrah and corp as you do die at those bosses no matter how good you are at runescape.

You'll also need to patch out tick-eating and change how prayer flicking works so you can't endlessly stay on 1 Prayer Point and never run out.

Why? These take skill and more effort to do than AFK bossing, why would you make effort give less reward? Also how would you even fix them? It would mess with core game mechanics and most likely create a lot of un for-seen problems.

You're given 1 tick, which is equally 30 frames, being extremely lenient.

It's not skillful at all.

All I will say is, why the instant re-poll? It's almost like you're forcing this content upon us.

If this doesn't pass, you might as well re-poll 1 Def pures getting Adamant gloves, or allow return to Ape Atoll through the Fairy Ring Network without gaining Defence experience. This is only a +1 increase to all stats compared to the "Inferno" capes having a very large jump.
- Fairy Ring Network method could be you "sneaking" into Ape Atoll like how you sneak the Orb onto Entrana in Devious Minds.

Also this will almost completely devalue Ardounge cloak 4 with the Melee cape being +4 stab to Ardy 4's +6. The 8 strength bonus difference takes the cake.

Dark bow on Accurate can hit 49-49, however I am happy to see the damage cap which is hopefully only existing in Dangerous PvP situations. I also assume this allows safe introduction of Rigour and Augury if that does get polled, without making the Dark bow OP.
- Rigour and Augury would assumed to be locked behind the Knight Training ground to be equal to Piety, so 70 Defence minimum.


Exactly. Jagex loves shoving content at us and constantly re-polling/wording things if something THEY want to be in the game fails. Just like with Artisan, polling it 2-3 times and even sending surveys to everyone who voted no. It'd be one thing if they applied this evenly, but they are biased when it comes down to things they , not the community, specifically want in the game.

Unfortunately the things they want in the game almost always tend to be fundamental game changers too, like new skills and OP weps/armor. I wish they'd just call this a continuation of RS2 and stop lying about the "Old School" thing. It's disappointing that the best in slot items are all completely different than that which was originally in the 2007 server at start. When old players come back and the relevant content is foreign, it defeats the point of having a nostalgic experience.

If this fails can you please not attempt to repoll it again? theres 101 things that failed at 70+% and you try to force in my opinion the most controversial.

I really think you guys need to stop doing what you like the idea of or what you think would make more money and think about what oldschool players want. theres a gap for new bis range/mage items, theyre called gloves. Although not as pleasing to the eye, (id disagree, atleast if you make gloves neon pink with 1000 spikes on they wouldnt be noticeable) gloves could really work well, especially when you consider they couldnt stack with void - which by the way i use for bossing!?!? i mean theres armadyl you could pay 30m for or do a few days of pc and get better void armour with such low reqs???

I love how dragon claws/dungeoneering/nex/soul wars/stealing creation isnt oldschool enough yet kiln cape from feb 14th 2012 is

Those capes are just so ugly aswell, doesnt the firecape have graphical problems where the bottom half doesnt properly meet the top half??
