I like pretty much all of it, but I do think the reward is a bit overpowered. There isn't really a need for any of the jewelry aside from the ranging necklace. The melee power creep has gone far enough IMO and aside from people just wanting to see higher numbers, there isn't a solid reason to increase the DPS.

I would hope that the rewards would be untradeable, or at the very least unlockable by completing the quest. It doesn't add enough dynamic to the game if you can just make a new account and purchase all of the BIS gear right off the bat.

I would like to see a buff to Ape Atoll some how with this quest. The Ape Atoll agility course used to be viable, but since you can only get Marks of Grace in city courses, Ape Atoll was pretty easily replaced. You could give an increased EXP rate for the course, or add a teleport to the tunnels/Zooknock, or even access to extra teaks or something along those lines. There are a lot of rewards that could be given that are useful but not BIS/OP.

Seems balanced but I think the mage/ranged rewards are overpowered and should be tweaked.

The range amulet isn't overpowered. The bracelet's mage damage boost carries more weight then the melee/range content, but it's not overpowered either-just unnecessary.
OSRS Mage Tank.


Believe magic to only be for support? Think again. It's just as valid of a Pking style as melee and range is.

Don't poll should it be accessible to pures.

This is a nostalgia quest, it should be open to all accounts (Who meet the skill reqs).
Monkey Madness 1. Is a huge quest which nearly all pures complete for the Dragon Scimitar.

You guy's know the PURE questions don't pass.. Please don't poll it.

Although I don't agree with everything (particularly BIS melee anything), you guys put a lot of thought in to balancing this really well. Props!


One suggestion:
Instead of leaving you with the zenyte jewellery when the charges die, can you instead be left with just raw materials (one onyx and a shard, or even just the shard)?

This would make a higher crafting level more valuable as you'd either have to be able to put it back together yourself, or sell the materials and buy a new piece of jewellery.
