Updates seem interesting, Lizard Shaman is such a pain now though, really wish the decor never got changed; for it being a Demi Boss that is. I get it's not the worst thing to safe spot, but safe spotting the shaman still made It a challenge. Seems almost impossible to make any profit now


Yeah I agree, I've been fighting the Lizard Shaman for quite some time now. After the update I didn't think it would be too big of a change. Now, it seems a little too clustered because there's Lizardman Brutes and Lizardman Shamans aggro'ing all over the area. Also, it can be hard to tell if the Brute poisoned you or the Shaman, which just adds the now hectic experience.
For instance, the Lizardman Brute poison only ticks for like 2 damage, so I don't really want to use an Antipoison for it, but the Lizardman Shaman poison ticks for 10 damage and there's no way to tell which one poisoned you until the damage ticks, causing me to waste supplies.

I just dont understand why you wont give us the dragon claws on the old school game not just the tournament worlds...

We offered them on Deadman Mode only a few weeks ago, and they didn't pass even there.

By introducing them in Tournament worlds, so players can go play with them a bit and get a feel for how they impact PvP, either:
- everyone realises they're great, so we get enough support to add them to OSRS, OR
- everyone realises they're not good, and stops asking for them.
I don't much mind either way, myself, but I'd be glad for players to have a chance to play with them and remember what they're like again.


So much for dragon claws being something you never would release into the main game, and this just being a fun thing for people to mess around with. Knew it would eventually lead to a poll if the people on RS forums cry for it. Do you realize how negatively this would affect PvP, especially single combat? The lack of regard for pumping OP items in the game is pretty mind-blowing considering all of the other items we already have.

Suppose next we should have tourny worlds with divines, turmoil, PvP items, and korasi's sword next. Why not? People can decide if they like them or not. Who cares about game integrity.

D claws must have murdered your entire famly for you to hate them so much.

Anyways... all dramatic Bs aside, id love d claws, adds variety to osrs and allows atleast 1 Decent Spec Weapon for OSRS. Theres plenty of Tanky Gear for claws. Why do people get so upset, like they will ruin the wildy.... they will bring the wildy back

Just make claws 60% spec and release them into the main game. The only real problem with claws is rushing, if it were 60% spec it wouldn't be much different than rushing with an ags.


No, then they wouldn't be the d claws people Rememberd. More people would vote no to that. Even if they enjoyed it.

OG d claws FTW, weren't even OP go to tournament worlds and test for yourself.

Yeah i went to a tourney world, and after getting rushed a dozen times in 5 minutes i decided i'd rather not have them in their current state. 60% spec would be just enough balance to make them not oppressive, but still good enough for people to use.

Ofcourse your going to get rushed 1 million times, The whole focus of this update was for people to test the spec.

Lets not forget to mention that they would most likely cost between 20-45m and not every pure on the block is going to have them.

Thank you =)

And Duxy ofc, confirms what I've said all along...if they got a nerf, the ones who want them to stay OP, will vote them down.

They'd never pass a poll....in any form.

Yeah... There's plenty of "tanky" gear when you're on a server with an unlimited supply of maxed gear. This server is not very representative of how they would act in real PvP combat. In the wilderness it'll be used almost exclusively against rune, mystic, d'hide, and ghostly robes (in the case of pures). Not full bandos, dfs, and maxed defense bonuses.

Because most of us have been there and done that. Dragon claws were once apart of the game, it's not like it's some foreign item whos consequences in the wilderness are unknown. Many veterans and people who actually pk know all too well how OP they are/were.
