I would like to suggest,

A Rangers quiver belt. Some what close to the same stats as ranger boots

You will be able to put all types of arrow ammunition into the quiver. (Not including bolt racks)

Seems a lot better than adding ranger gloves. Which would inpact the grind for
Barrows gloves.

Lastly, making it so you have to bind all 4 tiers, your gunna get lvl 126s camping for easy's,
When you have very low players only able to do easy's.

Either way, I'm voting yes, you guys will do the job. (Y)

Wonderful ideas! Can't wait for the updates that get approved.

One suggestion: Would you please price check our clue rewards on the screen where we first see the loot? Pretty please!

Same for barrows chest loot. For both of those rewards the first thing I always do is price check to see the value of what I earned. It would save a step and be cool to see!

I am not sure if this has been suggested but I think the Ranger gloves should come from Easy clue scrolls (very rare) and add Ranger tights from Master clues.

Ranger gloves - Easy
Ranger boots - Medium
Robin hood hat - Hard
Rangers' tunic - Elite
Ranger tights - Master

Add Ranging cape with 99 range and have a complete fashion-scape set. I also think it would be cool if equipping all the pieces from clues could unlock a Robin hoodie type emote. Or equipping the full set with Ranging cape could slightly change the skill emote to honor Robin Hood in some way.

I have always had love for the Ranger boots + Robin hood hat combination so I personally think it would be awesome if having the complete set would give a set bonus to put it on par with or close to Black dragon hide. Obviously completing the set would be enough for me just for the purposes of fashion-scape.

This looks promising but one thing about gilded armor... We got to many rune sets why add one more set? And since your gonna add the scimitar... I suggest that you can make gilded 2h sword and buff it for f2p worlds it can be a new set of weapons and armor.. Instead we gonna need like 50 or 60 att to wear it or 50/60 def to wear it. So it can a new armor and also... We don't really have any kind of bosses so we could have one that could be difficult to kill by one man team and ONLY ACCESSIBLE for F 2 p players. Or we could make it.. But it would take something like 99 smithing with rune and gold bar... Idk something cool :-)

I still feel bummed about the 3rd age pickaxe and axe i mean, 3rd age is a stronger tier and wouldn't that make sense for it to be the better option? You don't see 3rd age Armour have the same stats as dragon i just feel like whats the point introducing it if it has only a custom skin change. At least make it some what better. There already is a large gap from 60-99 in terms of axe /pickaxe yet weapons go up to a skill requirement of 75. I personally think that a new tier for miners and woodcutters should have there time.

Hell they probably wont even have a special to increase the levels :\ Maybe a possibility to make a unique special for them two items to temporarily increase the skill level by 5 instead of dragons special of 3. Something as small as that can be a benefit to some. Give it a purpose other than slap a 3rd age name on it.

As a player who has loved doing clue scrolls for many years on both old school and the original game, I have clocked up to most likely in the thousands and even have a 3rd age reward which not many can say they have accomplished. So here's my opinion.

I do not see master clue scrolls as a good update. Why? Because having to grind out each difficulty of clue to receive a Master one seems quite foolish.

When I am killing monsters or slaying my way through combat levels, when that hard or elite scroll pops up on my screen, I get excited knowing I can take a break from my current task and go have 20minutes to enjoy myself with a clue scroll.

However with a Master clue scroll..I can't see myself feeling like that, if I were to see an elite or hard on the floor, I'd simply be annoyed that I won't ever see a Master clue unless I actually go to low levels and farm for 3 more scrolls. They're meant to be something that excites you and gives you something extra to do for some profit, not something to try and grind multiple monsters for.

My opinion would just be to rework the elites for the time being. The average loot is slightly higher than hard but for some of the requirements needed, 200k or so is not really that much in comparison to the time spent getting one.

I am in no means complaining about the requirements for the elites, I have quest cape and every skill req to complete them because clues are my favorite part of the game however it seems that rather than working on a new scroll that takes the fun out of getting one, rework the ones we already have.
