I still dislike the powercreep. Not needed at all. And not needed to relegate the old equipment to semi-redundant.

I still dislike the fact that dragon claws will be entering (and probably passing) a poll. It was a horrible item in rs2/rs3 and now we are making the same stupid mistake again.

I still dislike that raid rewards are being shoved down our collective throats. Yes raids passed, but if possible rewards dont pass... you could just withhold those particular rewards. Can always poll a year later and add some toptier items then (if they pass). I'm confident that a raids boss pet would have been enough incentive. No extra topdrops needed.
Isn't it strange that so many players blindly apply to clans, without ever wondering why there are openings in that clan?

I disagree with bow nerf since it only used at magical creatures. Toxic blowpipe remains top dps for training/most monsters.

Why are the Tier75 armour being re-re-polled? It was not passing polls because of the stats on it, and the stats was barely changed in 3 polls. My suggestion is to make it like zenyte equipment, you loose defense/prayer, but you get extra offense. Similarly Tier75 would provide around same defense as bandos, no prayer bonus, but getting extra offense. This keeps some variety in game since barrows remain top for defense.

Another approach would be totally remove the Tier75 armour, it is totally non-unique, just copying nex fom RS2. Add some new items to put on existing items to improve them. For example, new crystals to add to kraken tent to make its value go up. Or you can unlock new area/monsters from raid rewards .... it really does not have to be new gear (especially when it failed poll twice already).

The bow nerf along with ballista nerf was unneeded and poorly thought out. The bulwark should not be called an offensive shield unless you give it better strength bonus. At least remove the attack requirement if you're going to give it such abysmal stats.

Why are you polling two sets of Mage armor??? Nobody is addressing that Kodai robes will be dead on arrival. Magic damage has always taken precedence over accuracy when picking gear. Just look at the third age amulet. Worthless. "I've been playing since 2006 but jagex made me quit 11/20/2013"
