RIP serp helm and 75 defence pures with fire capes. With that said, this update is actually quite good, as it does balance a lot of things out which I personally find quite nice. As a zerk, the void reduction improves the pking experience, but it's a shame for all of those void pures who have an account that is effectively useless.

Only problem I have is the reduction of raw sharks from zulrah - I'm not an ironman, but that seriously takes a lot away from that gamemode. Consider putting the raw sharks back at a reduced drop rate or drop volume (75 or 50)?

"Serp helm was OP, so they nerfed it.
Zulrah was OP, so they nerfed it.
Void was OP, so they nerfed it."

SERP HELM AND ZULRAH WAS OP BECAUSE YOU COULDNT MASTER IT.
VOID WAS OP BECAUSE YOU WERE TOO LAZY TO PLAY PEST CONTROL

if you see it any other way you seriously have a screw lose somewhere up there

Unlike most of these people, this update makes me happy.

The map is wonderful.
Anyone who complained about void being nerfed are babies.
The Serp helm I'm 50/50 on, they shouldn't have removed the venom, but lower str bonus was needed.
And finally, I'm most happy about Zulrah. All my friends everytime I say I need to make some money. "Go do Zulrah" "zulrah" "zulrah." I don't like it, it isn't interesting, and the profits needed to be nerfed. (although they weren't honest, it does look more like a 50% decrease than 30%)

Obviously these things weren't polled because they would have never passed. "It's going to end up like rs3" My ass, you idiots always voting 75%+ on all these stupid updates are making the game slowly unbearable. I want "OSRS" not "OSRS Super Modified"

Honestly disgusting.

There's no excuse for making un-polled changes to content that has existed in the game for years, you literally had YEARS to make those changes.

Time to move on, not just because of these changes, but because there is now a clear precedent for drastic changes based on reddit upvotes.

Honestly people like you are disgusting. Do you think people would vote yes for such updates? They were necessary for the economy and balances. Noone would vote yes. If Zulrah was your reason to play OSRS then.. yeah

"No, balancing fixes and game integrity updates are not subject to polls. We've tried polling fixes like that before, but it doesn't serve the game's long-term health (and doesn't even much please players either)."


Yeah, well, why bother having a polling system then. They had 2 years to change Zulrah, and Void has existed since its inception.
