The slayer level requirement for Wyverens I believe should be raised. Being unsure of the rest of the drop table I think the Wyveren Elemental Sheild (WES) should at least set the slayer req to match the 72 or regular wyvrerens but preferably be raised. 76 maybe depending on the rest of the drop table?

Underwater Fishing: The harpooning parts sounds great and fun. Again nice way to combine two skills. The drift nets however, I'm not to keen on. Perhaps if adding some risk: you return only to find a swordfish or shark got caught in it and ripped it, letting all caught fish escape. Otherwise just another AFKable way to train.

All in all Fossil Island seems like a great addition, but in need of some nerfs and tweaks.

I'm a big fan of this idea!

But do keep in mind that if this will be the (slayer) requirements for the wyverns, people will - just like when skeletal wyverns were - complain about how crowded the area will be. I mean, who wouldn't want this shield?

I'm necking myself if this even appears on polls. This is so rushed and utterly garbage. Why make skills easier such as agility, but you are reducing the value of the skill itself. As well as mining will be 60-100k xp/ph which is anywhere from 1 and a half to two and a half faster than exp rates currently which in return will crash runite ore. Even the new wyverns would be lower slay requirement as if they aren't already filled with bots as we speak. Why don't you guys come out with an update to remove bots and not rush out new flawed terrible content that a 12 year old designed. You guys are so lazy you just go with faux and ice posideon's underwater idea which was thought of in mere minutes.Ive been playing runescape since 02. I've had tons and tons of fun in runescape throughout the years. but before runescape 3 died. You guys started doing the same thing making faster rates. Making skills devalued newer better items that are cheaper than rares and better. The wyvern shield is way to close too arcane which in return would crash arcane spirit shield. You guys say we make the choices but in fact that's not true. You guys should spend more time on other things. Example the update that was first spoke about in 2016. Then said would be released in 2016. Now it got moved too 2017. and then in 2017 got moved again too 2017 summer so you guys can talk about a new jad on your post in the 2016 forums and take years but you guys can rush out different content in 3-5 days max. l0l this is insane. You guys need a new dev team or slow your roll. I figured you guys would have some intelligence first slow down and focus on what you guys have still yet to do but promised not release this half made rushed out content that no one would even really enjoy. Agility/Mining would be more ruined as well as arcane. More bots with wyverns. All in all, the negativity far out weighs the good that comes from this. I hope you guys actually read this and take it into account.

@uh deez nuts

Well prepare to be big time disappointed.

People are allowed to have their opinions, and apparently, just like in like every poll pretty much so far, they appreciate new content.

Furthermore, I'm pretty sure its EoC that harmed rs3 (for me, at least)

INCREDIBLE

A lot of unique and interesting ideas. i Only have problems with 2:

40k/hr mining at @ 50, is a bit steep this would kill motherloade i'd say 30k it a sweetspot.

And magic shield is slightly too strong. I would nerf those stats into something along the lines of (dragonfire + tzhaar shield) / 2. Besides that it looks amazing.
