- A single copy of the DK room, for use on assignment only. Potentially with a Diary Requirement. You already need a task, so I think that's good enough and otherwise I would choose for the instance without dropping the ring.

- Ely improvements: I think it's an good idea except for Zulrah. Then the duration of the trips will be longer and the Zulrah items will be worth less. So, that isn't a good idea. (I can't do Zulrah, but it's hard to do it and it's just an achievement if you can do it, otherwise it would be easier to do this).

- I think this is a good idea, then will it be more usefull. Should the spectral spirit shield reduce prayer drain by 50% of all prayer draining attacks? This would not include player attacks.

- It's would be nice, but it isn't that important. Should we shrink the empty cave outside the Corp’s lair? This would make it less likely to have a map-loading trigger in the middle of the fight area.

- That would be nice, then we can kill it faster. Should the King Black Dragon’s respawn timer be reduced to 10 seconds?

- Devine: I vote for "1. It should drop as a sigil that is added to an elysian shield to create the divine shield." Then both drops will be valuable and the price of the Ely will still be good and it's really special to have a Devine. Devine is a really strong shield, but an Ely is also good, so you can see the Devine as a "power-up" from the Ely so I think that it would be good to do that.
I was talking with a friend a few days ago and after our conversation, we thought that this would be the best way to bring back the Devine. Then will Ely stay important, even when it isn't the "best" shield in game anymore.

Make Dagannoth Kings harder to fight, so fewer people can kill them. Or at least make it so Rex isn't soloable (agro from Prime and Supreme), because low lvls can camp a room with blood blitz and full bag of prayer potions litteraly forever! Don't make thing easier and cheaper, please, this game is fun because of the hard work it takes (y)

I dont agree with the 10 second KBD timer change. I had no tele out one time out there, but I had plenty of time to get loot AND use a minigame teleport to ensure that I got out. If the timer was set to 10 seconds, then you wouldnt have a real chance to get loot, and tele out using minigame or home teleport, in the case of forgetting alternative teleports. The only other real way out would then be to risk running through the wildy to level 20.

On the flip side of this, I do believe there should be a time reduction since some of the waits for the KBD to spawn are very long. Maybe 20 seconds. (If that isnt what the timer is set to now)

Regarding the Ely: does it need a buff, for me: YES.
It's a start to get Elysian's damage reduction effect for more bosses. I would love to see even more bosses on that list, most bosses you proposing now doesn't need a ely. But its a start.
In my opnion the buff shouldn't be polled because (like Gurp Gork said) It's already supposed to work that way according to its description.

Personally I don't think Divine is needed in Osrs if ely gets buffed.

I'd love to see a dks instance that offers no drops other than dag bones but with nerfed defence values so they can be comparable to frost dragons with frem elites.

This would maintain ring prices and bring those of us who have worked hard for elite diaries a good amount of gp in that doesn't involve slaving away at zulrah.

I would love an option to have all bars dropped from metalic dragons to be noted when on assignment. Maybe instead of just 200 points for mithril, have an opion for 350 that unlocks all metalics.

I think the main problem with DKs is being an ironman it is nearly impossible to get rings, D axe or seercull for clues. I think having an ironman poll for a second lair or instance that requires ironman status to enter would give us a level playing field since we can't even fight off crashers. This wouldn't affect ring prices due to the fact that we can't sell the rings so there is no downside from my perspective.

Skyflower said :
If people are afraid of ring prices dropping, at least give ironman accounts the option to instance because it is nearly impossible to find a world, and when you do, you have a 99% chance of getting crashed.


I agree completely, for normal accounts you are going to DKs to make money so if you're getting crashed you can do something else to make money or level your combat stats but for ironmen we are there for the unique drops that can only be obtained from DKs and its impossible to find a free world let alone fend off crashers since we get no loot if they do 1 damage. As far as an instance for the ironman cave I think that would cause a problem since sometimes you have to go in and out multiple times to be able to safe spot rex and I don't want to have to bring a huge cash stack to be able to try multiple times to get around supreme.
