I'm likely to vote no on this. Mainly due to the content aiming more for meleers...

This is Runescape! Not Meleescape ffs!

Now if they add some range and mage gear items or cape for the other two combat types. (Maybe the same or similar def and prayer bonus like the melee fire cape.) I would give this a YES vote and a pass. then maybe range and mage should actualy contribute to beeing max combat lvl since unless u raise them as a pure they do not give cb lvls and are not required to get (max combat lvl)

it fell shy of the 75 % ( ya know the limit you guys set for something to come out ) yet your bringing it anyways. way to stick to the rules you made.

As the devs have explained...

It failed the poll mostly due to them adding the inferno as an extension to the fight cave. A large portion of the community want the content to be standalone, not simply an extension of the fight cave. They have reworked the content and are now re-polling to see if this is more in line with what the community had in mind.

Heaven forbid they rework content that nearly passed poll so that it more closely matches what the community wanted (failing a poll does not mean it is forbidden to re-poll). so then they should have re polled it as a seperate extention since the initial poll failed . rather then assume thats why it failed . heaven forbid they actualy abide by rules they set. it failed the poll it failed the poll reguardless. of reason

They received an influx of comments from people that wanted the content just not how they polled it. Thus they went ahead and reworked the content (had nobody of said anything they would have left it alone). Now they are informing the community of the reworked content and will be re-polling it to see if this new content is what the community had in mind...

I could also give this content a PASS if they could add a ranged and magic version of the 60 defense armor set. (With the range set also needing 60 range, and magic set needing 60 magic.)

The ranger obby armor would fair better defensively in melee defense, Especially in slash def. But fairs a bit worse in crush def and magic def. for the offense bonus, it would have the same as or slightly weaker than black d'hide.

the magic obby armor would have better defenses in everything but range, and would have a slightly less magic def. and the offense can be the same as mystic.

Just a thought that would make this content a bit more balanced.

Such a shame that the fire cape will be replaced. It was such an iconic item for such a long time that it's just going to be very hard to come to term that there is something else that is better for the cape slot in osrs. I can't help but feel that slowly but surely that elements of rs3 is creeping in and were going down the same road again that made lots of people quit including me until osrs became an option. Hopefully that's not the case as that was the reason I came here to osrs to escape from all of the stuff that was forced on us in rs3. I will remain faithful for now just because i put so much time on my account and see how much more of these unecessary update is voted in before i make a decision. I guess it's update time when it's in.....

The combat Triangle just never seems to work very much so what is the point? More melee scape lol.

Okay now for the real thing here: The Meleers have THREE types of attacking, Stab, slash and crush. Range and Magic only has ONE type. This means that meleers get to use different weapons styles, which also means you can attack another meleer's weaker defensive area. 3rd age plate user fairs great on crush, but bleh on stab.

So why not Ranger armor that fair really good against the overused af, SLASH melee attack, But fair poorly against CRUSH or STAB attack? Almost every melee player just use slashing weapons. You can still counter rangers as the armor is still slightly weaker than dragon., But now need to take note on what to use to kill the ranger with instead of blindly attack with a type that won't fair so well.

And if magic is supposed to counter Melee, Then we need magic armor that has good defense against melee. But is still countered by rangers. (Like the Gandoermic armor that worked really well back in 2011. Magic armor that was uber against melee, fairs just fine against magic, and was countered by rangers.)
