so i would like to point out that all of this was not included in the vote like this skill is gonna seem to swap the game like it had once before when u introduced summoning into the game like i would rather the game stays the same and u add new mini games and more land than a new skill like this skill is a minor priority and u guys are making it a major priority there is other things in the game that u guys should update/ fix before adding more like some people like eoc but i have been playing since 01 or 02 like this game has constantly deprogressed since then and i am gonna blame it on the skills and the players as well like u made the server old school so why cant it remain that way. I love runescape and the community but i feel like im being forced out of old school the same way i was in eoc when u decided to make the swap i lost all the hard work i had done and all the time put in just to have it ripped from under my feet i cant speak for everyone but i can say this NOT ALL OF US LIKE EOC AND MOST OF US HATE THE CHANGES BEING MADE! i understand u need to add content to get new people to play but sorry i dont think that people who dont understand something when they vote and and u make it seem like there is no other option maybe in the next poll add a "i do not want this" not just yes or no on 3 questions that are all linked to one answer because ur forcing people to make decisions they do not wanna make... if anyone is with me on this and would actually like to see runescape make it in the long run then u need to open ur mouths and not be followers but take lead for once in your life and tell them how u honestly feel and your opinion on this.. because i know half of rs is mad about this and dont have the guts to talk about it because they feel it makes no difference like it has before...

uhh I voted yes, cause its a great idea. Without new content the game will die off. Also I dont see anything wrong with this skill yet. Everything seems to be balanced and the ideas are of course opinions but comparing this to eoc is very ignorant. Using the d pickaxe to make the other pickaxe wont change the price. everything is look good. Hopefully will give me more motivation to keep on training.

You need to chill out. The skill hasn't passed poll yet.

So one of the biggest problems I see is that most people saying straight up "no" aren't offering a resolution to their problem, or aren't even listing their problem. This thread is solely for that purpose, to find out what people like/don't like.

As far as the "A chance of" issue, I've seen (and agree with) several opinions. There are many things you can change to fix this, like adding a "cut herb" to all herbs. This way you can cut an herb to five pieces, and then you have 5 "chances" to obtain the prayer boost.

Now to the main issue: This is OLD SCHOOL Runescape. A new skill COULD BE detrimental, but it could also be very helpful. Like with the Dragon Pickaxe and Dragon Axe (I've seen this brought up several times) being devalued. This isn't necessarily true, since you need them for the Artisan axe/pickaxe. This being said, I feel like this would bring the value up, since the Dragon Axe is already 500k and the Dragon Pickaxe currently dropping. As far as this being "OLD SCHOOL RS", I believe that you must make changes to a game to attract new people. BIG CHANGES. A new quest for high level players or new high level items isn't going to bring new players in. You must add something pretty huge to a game to attract new players. Thus, creating a new skill (maybe Artisan, maybe not) would be great!

+1 vote here :)

I think the question here is in what way people see "value."

You may be correct with the game gold value of these things, but it could be argued that fewer people will use the D axe/pick due to the Artisan axe/pick being better. Thus, the cash value could go up, but the "game value," if you will, of those items decreases.

If, for instance, a new level 250 boss were introduced, a Golden Golem. This creature only drops cash stacks from 5 mil to 50 mil, the "cash value" of pretty much every item in the game would go up, but the "game value" of every other boss would decrease.

I would vote against the Golden Golem on the grounds of "game value."

I don't personally think that's a problem with Artisan, but I CAN understand those that think the devaluing of some content might be an issue (though to them, I also say if nothing ever loses "game value" all content introduced is dead when it comes out).

I love some of the ideas, but i don't see why we need a new skill for them. Implement them into already existing skills as high level content. Seasoning fish with herbs is genius, but high herblore & cooking is more than enough of a req for it. Artisan is useless. It doesn't need to exist, stop forcing it.

The cosmetic outfits will be cool at first but after a while they will become worthless just like many of the clue scroll items did. I think that they should have a special bonus for each set similiarly to barrows sets.
