I'd like to suggest to have the ring slightly adjusted. I like the idea of +10 in all def stats. But because there is no BIS Mage gear other than ahrims. Range armor defense is not all that high as well. I would like to see mods adjust the defensive stats to like +15 or range and Mage. Melee has high defense gears such as guthans, torags, bandos. I know these melee gears offer high range bonus, including karils for Mage. But when you don't own, don't have these gears, or have other gear to wear for specific PvM. The trade off isn't so great. Just a thought don't have to be +15. Could be anywhere like +12. ;) overall looks good!

Looks good!

In regards to the new high-tier jewelry

Crafting is the definition of suffering, from an Ironman perspective. Upon obtaining the onyx and shards would players be able to pay an NPC coins in order to infuse/craft the gems?

5-10 million seems a fair price for items of such power.


In regards to the Ballista weaponry

This content seems dead on arrival, players will always choose slightly lower damage at an increased speed. See Dragon scimitar to Dragon battle axe.

What would make the Ballista be useful would be having the Ballista serve as a fixed direction cannon which only attacks one monster of the players choosing at a time.

This would attack at a reduced rate when compared to the dwarf cannon, The damage from the Ballista would lower with each lower tier of javelin.

Rune - Max of 27

Adamant - Max of 23

Mithril - Max of 19

Steel - Max of 15

Iron - Max of 11

Bronze - Max of 7



Would love to know what you think!

Would be nice to have the ability to just combine the shards with current onyx items as well but either way I like the idea of the ranged amulet but the others im split on. Former RS3 Completionist, On the road to Max old school

I think the idea of a fixed direction cannon is one that is very cool. With that said, we will be offering the ballista as described in the blog. The function it would serve is as a KO weapon in PvP scenarios. Players could use a faster weapon, the magic shortbow being a good example, and switch to the ballista for a finishing blow.

can the unenchanted zenyte equipment have a different appearance to enchanted zenyte equipment like the fury and onyx amulet (fashionscape purposes) :D

This is definitely a possibility. @JagexRonan

I'm super excited to do this quest. What I'm worried about is a new jewelry bracelet that might take power over barrows gloves. Yes the grind for them sucks but I feel the way the new jewelry sounds it might have the power to replace them. Also I think the ballista should have some type of ability so it doesn't become useless after a week. Maybe similar to the power of a hand cannon would be neat. Not too overpowered but still useful.

Onyx is already 5m ea, chaos runes and death runes will also go up because of the TzHaar shop.
It doesn't seems good when chaos runes will be 170 ea and deaths 360 or something... The new bosses from ZEAH should drop onyx when this would pass otherwise magic for f2p is completely ruined.

Rewards look completely useless. Just like every other "big update" in the past few months. I don't see myself using any of that crap. Just a bunch of low level gear for pures that don't have access to rfd gloves or maybe too poor to afford a fury. Stop listening to the sheep train that preaches "ohhh its too OP" and release some good useful updates for once. Voting no.
