I quit runescape because of all the stupid stuff like this being added. If i wanted to play RS3 i would.

I specifically started playing old school because it was just that, initially. Now you guys, with the help of the community, are turning oldschool into rs3. There seems to have been a serious drop in players since the days of pre-eoc, excluding the bots(they're still all over the place... unavoidable i know)

All these updates are going to do is make people like me, who have played since runescape first came out in 01, quit. again. My vote will be no on every single one of these. Melee is under-powered already compared to range/mage(when you compare gear prices especially..), and while the new cape would help, the armour wouldn't be beneficial at all really. Just more way over-priced melee items.

- The fishing is decent.
- Completely remove the thieving as it wont be used due to ardy knights (fix ardy knights afk clicking perhaps)? and this would be a great idea.
- Reduce the defence requirements of the armour to either 40 or 45 (currently there is no p2p 40 def armour which is worth it for melee over rune and torso) and 60 def for this is just a dump requirement as it wont be used since bandos is BIS at 65.
- Add a 40 attack and 60 strenght requirement to the armour aswell since it increases accuracy.
- Give the cape +2 prayer (so it matches firecape)
- dont make "useless" waves in the inferno as in the fight caves where the first 20 arent even challenging and should be removed imo.

I think that do it in Tzhaar city is better but does that mean that the Brimstone village and the Kahlith race will never be available in Zeah? Can you do the Inferno in Tzhaar but still release the new village and race in Zeah with different features?

Also please consider an Infernal Cape for mage and range or if no then add the range and mage attacks from +1 to +4. Thanks!

I don't think the firecape as a quintessentially OSRS item should be outdone or even "upgraded", it's already good enough bonuses for the cape slot and few things rival it.
Seeing as how it failed its last poll I'll have to vote no again because the Jmods have a hard time understanding no means no (just like with elder/raids armors).

The dps/powercreep is something many players want to maintain at a healthy rate and this is a concern for some of us, and this particular slot being upgraded isn't something a lot of players want

I'm all for the inferno as concept of extremely difficult solo pvm challenge with great untradeable reward(s) just not anything that infringes on the firecape.

I don't really speak my mind on updates other than my votes in game but I had to say this to also protest the sickening amount of attention Jmods give reddit on stuff like this.

Would this mean that the Obsidian civlisation on Zeah won't be created? (Tassa-Khal or something?) They seem redundant without the inferno to back up that content.

Expansion of the existing TzHaar city is great. I like the thiefing and fishing posibilities, and that's it to be honest. In my opinion I would rather see something else then combat (bosses) updates... If we look to towns, minigames, quests, there are plenty half-projects. Why implementing brand new things if many isn't finished yet? I just don't get it.

Remove the prayer bonus from cape. It should be trade of between dps and orayer bonus. New cape is better for bossing and old firecape could be better for general pvm, depemding use of prayer potions.
