I love all the raid rewards! I especially am eagerly anticipating the nostalgia that claws will bring.

One question: will claws be released as the somewhat ugly painted rune claws, or can we expect to see their graphical appearance match that of when they were released in 2008? I certainly am hoping for the latter.

Sounds good. Please keep in mind that you can make it so low levels can't vote on our raids polls. Raid rewards/dungeons will be only done by high level combat players. Please let us decide and not level 30.

Great idea as it has nothing to do with low levels so they voted no, just because it doesn't effect them.

i dont like the bow nerf but it's whatever aslong as nothing can out dps it on monsters with high magic def. i feel like new items should be far more superior than older items because newer items like the twisted bow and zenyte jewelry specializes at one thing while weapons like the blowpipe is the jack of all trades yet it's only slightly weaker.

i believe if you guys are going to make niche weapons then they should be niche forever. i dont ever want to see a weapon that can out dps the arclight on demons, i dont ever want to see a weapon that can out dps the twisted bow on foes with a high magic level because whats the point of releasing something that specializes at one thing if you guys are going to make more weapons that not only have the best dps in game but also out dps weapons that
specializes
at taking down a specific monster? and what's with the level 75 requirement? i think the shield gives too much defense bonuses to be a level 75 shield the def requirement should be bumped up to 85-95 and if the the twisted bow is slightly stronger than the blowpipe than the level requirement should be slightly higher. 78 ranged would be a pretty decent requirement.
P.O.P HOLD IT DOWN #LEGALLYBLIND

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 agree with this.

Not sure what your thought behind the Dragon Harpoon is in honesty. The Fishing exp rates when catching Sharks aren't a problem. I asssume Zulrah will still provide more sharks per hour than using this Harpoon and that wont be resolved unless the boss is nerfed. Which leads me to believe that this is probably a B0aty related Whale joke that you've ham-fisted at the last minute.

It's not going to become "semi-redundant." If the price is like 100m+, not everyone will have it. It doesn't make much sense why +65 defense item should be BiS with people having 99 def commonly in 2016.. they are also going to be incredibly rare, and rare, valuable items are needed in RS. There are room for 100m+ armours in the game. As for claws, those are great, what are you talking about?

That being said, I do find it quite lame that the new armours, especially the melee armours are just new "BiS."

What happened to differentiating armours by giving them bonuses to different attack styles, other unique perks, and set effects? Now would be a brilliant time to add more melee armours to the game. Instead we got just 1. We should have gotten at least 3.
