Dragon claws should NOT come into the game at all. Or at least have a risk factor where if you Dragon claw hump Spec someone and Dish out a total of 80 some damage. Vengeance would activate and hit you for the 3/4ths of the total damage you inflicted out of your 4 attack spec. rather than one hit out of the four hits. That way. they can still be useful for pures and zerks. But must be wary of the veng risk.

Elder, Twisted, and Kordai armors is barely better than the overused. Bandos, armadyl, and Ahrims armor...Ether their defenses should be slightly buffed to make them more worth using. Raise max hp app-on wearing them. Or make the upkeep costs much less or even NON-DEGRADABLE. SO hat way, They would have a real good usefulness.

Ancestral Robes are Very good. I like how they are like the barbarian magic version of Bandos armor. Very good on that one.

New Prayers are so much needed. It helps a lot.

Twisted Bow feels rather useless to me. Only good for bossing on magic monsters and that's it...

Twisted Buckler is a very nice Upgrade to the odium ward. I really like that.


Dinh's Bulwark Looks uber to me. I love it!. Tho one question. Can you use it for PVP as well and PVM? If so. this will be a very fun way to troll, anger, or just annoy a bandos barbarian/zerker pker.

Dragon Hunter Crossbow is alright. Not that great in stats. But it will have a good place. Good way to make the dragons go extinct.


So far in my eyes. it's good. But I do hope the mega armors get a buff in defenses and/or be non-degradable or easier on the upkeep costs. Like 300k-400k cost to repair the broken set.

Dragon Claws -

Everyone take a step back and think about pre-eoc for a minute...

You want to vote yes on bringing the most over powered K0 weapon that Encourages people to PJ, RUSH with barrage, or RUSH with claws by them selfs.

You want to increase more melee weapons arsenal while range and melee are about equal when it comes to pvp(magic still completely sucks and cant do much mid-end game), not only by adding a new weapon, you want to add one of the most deadliest and dangerous weapons ever to be in runescape.

ARE YOU PEOPLE MAD STUPID??

It's bad enough range and melee can k0 65+ damage with one single special and magic cannot even come close to that damage or even k0 stack hits at all.. But adding, claws, you will basically encourage everyone to use them and pk with them replacing the BIS's with the best KO in slot

On top of that.. I guarantee that dragon claws will be the bread and butter of the pvp world, and you will kill any type of skill involved in trying to k0 people.

Mages will stand zero chance and you wont see anyone trying to mage other than vengence, and range will decrease in population dramatically, because everyone will be using dragon claws as their k0 weapon.

This update will replace 80% of the most used weapons, and make it so even bad players at pvp will get kills easy now.

Old school sucks, and this update is making it worse... a lot worse. I even unsubbed because of the lack of content for magic, and the over baring content for melee with zero balancing at all.

I definitely like these new ideas and alternatives, however i still fully do not support adding elder armour/twisted/kodai,

Why exactly would we even add two sets of mage robes anyway...
The new ones i'm liking very much, banish kodai robes forever.

I do not believe there should be any range armours at all, a lot of people really enjoy doing armadyl as well as using the chestplate and plateskirt, they are not only stylish, but make range fairly strong enough already, even stronger now that your adding some new weapons, as well as already added the balista.

As for the elder armour, I still completely disagree with adding it, we don't need torva, never once in this game will we ever need torva.

Bosses aren't supposed to get easier, maybe over time because you've learned their attacks and defences and the proper strategy to kill them, but not just because a higher stat armour was released.

You have yet to answer the question of, "what is this ultimate tier armour even for?"

If i get full elder armour, what would i even kill in the game that I would need it for?

Currently our armours in game are more than satisfactory to kill any boss.

are you planning to release some ultra hard 50 man boss that drops the divine spirit shield that we all gotta have elder armour to survive or something?

What is its purpose...I don't need elder armour to go to bandos, I don't need elder armour to kill jad, nor would I need it for the new jad, I dont need it for corp.

I've went through all 25 pages of replies and every single post is the reason jagex gets away with this, I quit when nex and those armor's were released so not sure how they compare, but correct me if I'm wrong whip scimitar speed etc is 6 the proposed claws are 4; now everyone is saying nerf the claws; when they didn't even read the dev blog post a speed of 4 is equivalent to battle-axe speed.


This lack of attention from the community griping about stuff; when they are not even literate yet is amazing. I personally think everything in the poll is fine; but what I do think is not fine is how this is all in one update really kills the opportunity for future updates for a very long time; I would've much preferred to see some of those bis capes offered that were offered a while back; much less power creep and would've been nice to see from raids IMO.



Note; there was one person in 25 page's of posts that noticed there was a speed of 4 on the d claws; at the time of this post; really says something about the oldschool community how can you hold jagex accountable when you can't see what's in front of your own eyes first?

I looked at your post. I thought you where crazy about the D claws being slow as a battle axe. But I checked the very first post and you were not Joking about the speed of the claws.

In that case. That is the only thing I totally messed up or bashed in a total unfair way. But I personally would still like for vengeance to activate and deal the damage to the dragon claws user that specs and hits a total of say 80 damage. Meaning the Dragon claws user would take 60 damage. Instead of only veng'ed on the first hit.

Tho that might just be an option...

You talk about lack of attention, yet can't even understand speed 4 is the same as a whip. 4 ticks = 2.4 seconds. It even says IN THE BLOG attack speed equals ticks. :facepalm Nope.

Let me go ahead and stop you there. We do not have:

Turmoil
Overloads/Extremes
Tokhar-Kal
Saradomin's Whisper (+12 strength)
Torva (Higher strength than ours).

All those made claws the deadly weapon they were. Here? Nah, it's really not OP at all. Nope.
