Much, much, much prefer lootshare and coinshare. No new gimmicks please. Also, I know this is kind of off-topic, but I believe Rangers and Magers should have a prayer similar to piety to better balance the combat triangle. Melee literally has everything. Rangers/magers need a prayer pretty much exactly like the ones on rs3. Rigour and Augury would be preferred and also there are no super ranging/maging potions for pvp like there are for melee. I am hopeful that this will be read by a mod and soon polled.

Here is a fantastic fix to implement LootShare along with CoinShare and not ruin the economy!

LootShare --> Work as in the devblog. Random Chance to recieve an item, coupled with LSP earned. As well, teams damage is calculated together to help avoid SOLO crashers.

CoinShare --> Sell it to the HIGHEST bidder AS LONG as the OFFER is worth above -10% of the current G.E price of the item. If it is not above -10% in g.e then the item should be droped as in regular LootShare (This percentage can be subject to change)

- What I mean by this. If tassets are 20m, but the highest offer in g.e is 10m, the game will display a message, "Sorry, there are no current offers in the g.e for this item" and then the game will decide who will get the loot through lootshare.

- However, if tassets are 20m and there is a highest offer at 18m, the game will then sell it to that bidder and split the 18m amongst the team members.

This will remove the economical impact of coinshare.

Honestly, this is the best solution.

No to shard share. I was quit fond of Instantshare.

tbh instant share sounded way more appealing and now there no longer offering it just because it would require engine work what lame excuse shard share will never pass when so many people know it will fail cause of rs3 same system they implemented. poll instant share and man up to get the engine work done.

First of all**** price is often not the current selling price so that generates a problem. Only time anyone would buy shards is when the GE price is below the current active buy/sell price (in which case, anyone with shards is going to get ripped off) Judging by reading everyone's response loot share is still plausible but apparently you guys threw that idea out the window without a poll so I'm just going to assume you're not going to offer it again. I would guess the only type of boss looting solution that will pass a poll is coinshare which sells the item for the highest current GE offer. It's no different than a team insta-selling as soon as they are done with trip and splitting cash.

I have heard so many complain that the decision to offer shard share was made by "outside sources"....In all honesty I dont understand why the options were not all offered for a vote... a simple we have 3 options listed below to implement lootshare which would you prefer...unless our mods and "outside sources" had reasonable doubt their prefered choise would be chosen.

How absolutely disappointed I am that this option is not being truly considered and is failing majorly in the poll. This idea not being introduced gives me more reason not to play this game, because i am sick of playing a MULTIPLAYER game and having to play it SINGLE PLAYER!!!! this is the best idea for loot sharing ive ever seen Jagex come up with, and all you **** heads would rather it stay the way it is.... Disgraceful. Putting future content entirely in the hands of voters ruins this game tremendously. I think this should be added into the game regardless of the amount of 'No' votes!

I saw someone post this response earlier and I agree, I would be 100% for this if you can guarantee the liquidity of the shards. (If you got 300 of that shard item you can exchange it for the real item on the G E) That's the only way to guarantee the value of the shards. Personally I would keep the shards as the same price as the item I'm not sure why some are saying let it move freely as a seperate item because it is the same item. Thanks, love what you guys are doing.

Jagex,

If you're going to remove dicing/flowering to eliminate trust trading... then implement a lootshare system to eliminate trust trading as well!

both sides of the spectrum here people

YES to lootshare, instanshare, shardshare, all work
