Have Raids even passed a poll.

The original zeah poll did not mention raids and also said any significant changes/additions would be polled separately I looked through all the polls since then and I cant find any poll for raids.

I found a dev blog where they talked about the second batch of zeah and raids but still not polled.

So are the content team spending a lot of time on rewards for something that has not been polled.

If anyone knows of such a poll please give me the title and date of it.

Funny, that. I went looking to see if raids had been polled about a week ago. I couldn't find where they had been either.

Nope, I think this time they're just gonna shove it on through with no regard to player support.

================================================================

I have also looked back on all polls found nothing on raids and can confirm the original poll for zeah did not mention raids and also said any significant changes would be polled separately.

I have seen a few players posting that raids were polled with original zeah poll not sure why they think this as it was not.

There was a poll about ZEAH. In the dev blog about Zeah it was clearly stated that the continent would include raids. I disagree that the raids should be polled seperately, but think the rewards will be polled before launch of the raids. Unfortunately, many a good content suggestions have been down-voted by nostalgics. I want to see a future for OSRS, not only the past.

People forget to realise that Raids are going to be the most challanging, advanced and most end-game top-tier PvM content that OSRS will see for atleast the next 4+ years. If these armours pass like the way theyre right now you can't simply add the next tier (tier 80) of armours without exceeding the difficulty of receiving the armours from Raids, which means that these three sets of gear will be the only new BIS gear that OSRS will see in the next 4+ years.

The Mage and Range armour are very nice, and fit nicely and sure the Elder gear has +18 accuracy on the full set, which is only usefull against high defence level creatures which is exactly the place its used for, but it having the same str bonus as Bandos soley because Bandos is Bandos and the 99% of the community that won't ever have The Elder gear in their possession makes them feel their 25M tassets wont stay 25M, should not influence the initial str bonus of the gear.

If Raids rewards won't be THE items u want to camp for like the Elysian is from Corp cause of its Superiority, rarity and value, Raids will die out within no time and with the huge potential Raids bring, this would be very unfortunate.

Adding +1-2 str bonus per Elder armour piece will make the diff between a 250M Elder gear set and a 500M Elder gear set

You really need to go and read the poll question it did not say we were voting on what the dev blog said.

But what it did say was and I quote:
-----------------------------------
"All content which significantly impacts on existing content will be polled separately as we go through the development process"

If your going to try and tell me that raids don't fall under a significant impact category then I'm afraid you are deluded.

To touch on your future for OSRS statement it takes 75% of the vote to pass new content etc.
therefore with a majority that size anything being passed or downvoted as you put it is what the majority want and so becomes a solid future for the game.

I am quite happy to accept changes to the game that I don't agree with as long as it has passed a 75% vote.

Maybe you should read the dev blog again.

"The Paradigm of Exodus is an enormous dungeon that is home to one of the most devastatingly powerful creatures in Gielinor. Found in and around an active volcano, players will be able to team up in Gilenor's first raid and venture into the dungeon, taking on the challenge of a randomly generated dungeon and unpredictable progression.

The Paradigm of Exodus will be big. Between 5 and 30 players can party up and attempt to take on the challenge of both the dungeon and the boss at the end of it. Combining interesting combat mechanics, teamwork and puzzle mechanics, the Paradigm of Exodus is not a challenge for the weak."

Straight from the dev blog. The poll also stated that anything new to Zeah which would affect EXISTING content would be polled separately. Raids is entirely new content, and was polled to come in wave 2 of zeah. The thing that does need polling is the rewards, since they will definitely affect existing content.
