To continue my post even further (Page3) since running out of characters to write.
New BIS Weapons:
Now you're wondering, well, you gave us ideas about the skilling tools and armor, but what should we do with the new BIS weapons?! Well, you guessed it, something pretty much the same!
First off, I will say what I think is GOOD and doesn't need to be changed, in my opinion:
- Dragon Hunter Crossbow
- Dinh's Bulwark (As this provides a pure defensive method and doesn't interfere with the DFS)
- Twisted Buckler and any mage alternative shield SHOULD require the use of an Odium or Malediction ward as the main part with the ability to upgrade it with the new Buckler range/mage shield casings. Other than that, those seem fine too.
The Twisted Bow:
This should be a fletched up version (Twisted and upgraded) version of the Dark Bow. The Dark Bow should be the main item here with the addition of a casing and make it TWISTED and allow it to have whatever stats and spec the new BIS will have. This would also make this item un-tradable just like the other things I talked about with maybe the same chance to fail disassembly as the armor since they will be more made/unmade than tools.
A future new BIS staff or weapon?:
The staff could use the current BIS Staff of the Dead, but the melee weapon would be tricky since, what can you make from a whip..nothing much. If there is ever a future melee BIS weapon... It just depends what type, so until I know what type, I can't give any ideas.
On top of all this, I just want to throw in that I think there should be Bronze to Rune mauls, F2P, that require the appropriate attack level to use, but also requiring strength to wield and giving slightly higher strength stats then the appropriate 2h of that range but worse attack bonuses. This way you could hit higher, but less of a chance it happens. Ex, Rune maul, 40a 45str
