Items to consider:

clue cape! :P
item/ability to re-roll clue once
pink partyhat(rare, like 3rd age long, costs few bil)


Less cosmetics or raise alch value.
Reduce elite steps to 9?


Possible problem:

I'm afraid Master clues will be waste to do, what kind of rewards it must have because it has to be overweight elite + 3 lower tier clues :O Unless it doesn't have many steps(cause it's time consuming to obtain)-less steps so it's fast to do but skill/quest requirements will be high.

I like a lot of the new stuff coming in but, ideas being.

KEEP BARROWS GLOVES THE BEST
, theres no point to make anything better the objective of the game is not to limit your account by making a pure. Its to become a main account with pure gear being better what would even be the point of making a account with defence?

The weildable clue scroll,
Would be awesome if you held it in two hands and examining it while running.

A Clue cape could be cool, there is one for diaries and music.

Occult Necklace kit to make it look better would be cool.

I have a pure so I do like them but with Monkey Madness two I know everybody saying pures should be able to go back to Ape Atoll.
NO
, This would be rediculous lol.

While woodcutting and mining, if you receive a clue scroll these will only be easy and mediums right?

Guthix doesnt have any mele armour or weapons if I am not mistaken. Would be cool if he got a set or 1 item that required like 75-85 attack + other requirements.


WHAT IS THE DEAL WITH THE
LUCKY IMPLINGS
?
Will the items actually contain all Easy/Medium clue scroll drops?
Will drops be more expensive?
How rare are they and is it even worth it if you can get a bad drop?
any special requirements other then 89 hunter?
Can you get the bloodhound pet from a impling?


Another note, I know everybody is saying Bloodhound doesnt make sense. I really like the idea. you're using it to sniff out the clues.
:)

Would there possibly be a way to notify use on emote clues if we have items in a hidey-hole
That way we don't buy items over again just to realize we have them or go thinking we do and then not be there?

I think a clue expansion is a positive idea... if it were more focused towards the existing tier's, namely the elite's, i.e its drop table and all round return for the effort you put in. Why introduce a master tier, when elite was supposed to be the hardest, and btw its also broken? Fix elites. And if you do introduce master's, you're not actually considering we sacrifice one of each tier clue to recieve one!? That's a horrible idea, It just doesn't work, if you have to do it, do it right.

The reward from falador diary where you get an increased clue drop rate from guards was a fun update and sometimes i myself like to grind out medium clues in falador, but often there's already several people in each world. If you do it this way, every world will be packed, and you'll have 5 people scrapping over one bloody guard and it won't be any fun. Same story for every monster that drops clue's, area's will be packed, players will be stressed, and it will feel like work as opposed to play.

There are some good ideas in there like the hidey holes and the untradable rewards, but there is no need to introduce more cosmetic items. They have a negative effect on the overall value of clues.
There's nothing more disheartening than doing a clue and rolling a 'rare' reward, only to find that it's value is <10k
. The more of these items there are, the lower that the demand on other cosmetic items will fall.
