Here's a question how many skillers are going to risk both a full inventory and swag bag full? Runite miners generally dont (the risk of being pked is pretty high).

I was going to get 85 mining, until i realized how bad the bot problem was at runite ores in the wilderness. These bots take away the motivation for real players to come and mine because they easily access the rocks and log off north west of the rocks near the fence to probably transfer the ores to a different account that holds them until inventory is full.

If i was competing with real players, I'd bring some decent pk gear and kill my competition. I'll be most definitely be doing the same thing when skilling at the new resources once they come out. It's survival of the fittest, I'm a skiller but if i have to get rid of my competition I'll do without thinking twice :)

I think all resources should be collected at 2x speed in the wilderness too, and all experience x2 (Making xp 4x faster than normal)

This would motivate a lot more people to skill there, because under the current suggestion I don't really consider it worth while.

Mila must be lying, skillers are all mid or low-level players who are completely helpless!

PKers just run up and throw lightning bolts which instantly kill any skiller in their path, it's ridiculous to claim that anyone is capable of both skilling AND fending for themselves.

I see there is interest in King Black Dragon revival. One rare drop of the KBD is the KBD heads. These require an astronomical construction rate to utilize in a POH and might just end up consuming extra bank space in a pvmer's bank should he not have the proper skill, or ends up with extras which he may be hesitant to just drop. My idea is to be able to use a knife on the KBD heads to convert it into 10 noted black d-hides. If teleporting from the lair is restricted, maybe change it on death to something like decomposing KBD heads which are tradable and can be slashed for 10 d-hides or something, but cannot be used to decorate a POH.

EDIT: Maybe add some sort of unique hunter gear acquired only from rare drops that can lower failure rate of hunting Chinchompas only in the Wilderness

Adding more resources (not counting the bosses) to the wilderness activity seems like a reasonable idea but the new resources could potentially ruin prices provided if too many people are gathering resources off the wilderness. The only reasonable option would be to have limited number of worlds have the bonus resources feature because it is very unlikely there will be enough pkers to roam the wilderness in every world. If there isn't enough pkers then the wilderness will just become an easy access for fast resources and the prices of raw materials would definitely plummet. The number of extra resource worlds could be limited to 10-20 but i think it should be monitored upon release to ensure a balanced number of worlds with such feature because the affect in the game economy would be huge if done wrong.

Regarding new bosses and upgraded bosses in the wilderness
I believe it'd be fine to have them in every world since people would most likely switch worlds like they would any other boss.

No ent , Keep untradeables on death , and no stupid swag bag...

I don't want a tree that gives you noted logs , that makes absolutely no sense...

If I earned my firecape , someone shouldn't be able to take it away from me by simply killing me.

Swag bag is useless , sounds too much like something they would have in EOC... like a yak , no thanks.

Also I don't like where you guys placed runite ore... It just makes us a bigger target then we already are , I get killed for my runite ore all the time... I'm sick of it... Make it less risky for the 500 of us who have 85 mining we worked for it.
Also you know how many damn bots already mine runite ore in the wilderness?!?
Take care of the botting first please...

Go look at mining , thieving , and hunter highscores... 70% of the top 500 in all categories are botters.
