Here's a suggestion for Red Dragons, since I've been hearing about them a lot:

For Red Dragons in the Wilderness, change them to "Lava Dragons." Perhaps change their level (level 252 instead of 152) and give them "Lava Dragon Bones."

This would help satisfy Pre EoCers because it emulates Frost Dragons, but it will not upset us Veterans because the bones would be so ridiculously scarce and expensive. What's more, it contributes to the growth of the wilderness, and most veterans love that.


that would be awesome

Also wouldn't the location of the spider boss need to be moved to a multi combat zone?


Yup, we'll need to move that then. Unless of course luring it to multi is part of the mechanic, what do you think?

would be great if we could get safe zone ffa clan wars without the dangerous portal to avoid lures and competition with pvp worlds or wilderness


We'll be looking at offering a clan wars system to players later on this year. However we need to create a grouping mechanism for clans first.

OK

I don't like wildy, I get nervouse when I have to go wildy for a clue scroll. Don't you dare make it that I have to go there for a slayer monster or to skill*

**'ers who kill skillers are cowards... picking on people they know are ill prepared

I have been pk'd while doing a quest and rc'ing, by cowards. :P

(\(\
( -.-)
O_(')(')


You don't have to go there to skill, if you don't like the Wilderness you can continue to play as you have been with no impact on your whatsoever.

I say that the ditch should stay. It has a valid purpose, keeping mean-spirited lurers from tricking people into going into the Wilderness.


We'll make sure players cannot be lured into the Wilderness and that they get a warning before they enter the Wilderness prior to removing the ditch.

i dont think the fountain of rune will get much play no one alches for the gold they alch for the exp i think maybe magic exp rates should be halfed insted of being non existent


I have to agree maybe half xp would be a bit more fair.


I think that should just get scraped. Or have it do something else, maybe magic does more damage there or something.


The problem with allowing players to get XP is it would encourage players to stand there and just splash spells at each other. They would not have anything worth PKing. We'll poll this piece of content separately and if it doesn't pass, it won't go in.

I think they should add something to the East dragons (just below it, level 18ish) to attract players there too, its a popular hybrid/single team pk spot and its a bit of a distance to get to, maybe they could add something that benefits hybriding in that area that will invite hybrids? maybe something like a death/blood rune that spawns out there every few minutes? (just a rough suggestion).

I also think they should add a lumber yard teleport tab/scroll seeing as there are no close areas to east dragons or anywhere far east of wild in general, that way it will be easier for people to actually return there after fights or killing drags but at a price (the cost of the tab).

- I would like to see something that encourages skillers to wear more valuables then, just like ring of wealth provides better drops, other equipment slots should be available with similar effects. This goes hand in hand with the idea of receiving notes items whilst PK-skilling

- Single Way Combat should be adjusted aswell I think, for example I could fight a red dragon and as soon as I see a Pker I unequip my weapon & wait it out. Unless this could aswell be viewed positively as tougher monsters wouldn't be 4-itemable and players will run out of food eventually causing PKers to act like vultures waiting on their pray.
Either way, getting PJed by a monster is the worst that can happen on your spec.

- An idea from skillorak I just read: The semi-bosses should have a random spawn across the Wild so clans don't camp their spots.

- Love the Lava Dragon Bones Idea

- It would be nice to see Dagon'hai robes in the game in some sort of way, they really add up to the whole medieval magician Runescape. Not necessarily with stats.

- The Fountain of Runes can't have half exp, this could too easily be abused.

That's a good idea. I think even with updated drops not many will want to kill Red Dragons, in the Wildy at least when there is still a safe alternative in Brimhaven

Possibly make a dungeon similar to forinthry in the middle of the graveyard. Make it multi so there can be 1 multi green drag spot, a spot to add some slayer in this update. Also can add the revs in the back. Would love to see rev caves come back!
