The moment devs do another bot nuke like back in 2011, thats when skillers start to matter and gathering skills are worth training again for money.
Untill then, non-ironman accounts just keep killing w/e bosses that yields decent profit no matter what the drops are and buy their skilling resources from bots.

Personally: Zulrah dropping 100 raw sharks or magic logs semi often wasnt the reason i spent almost 3 months there. Hell if i REALLY wanted raw sharks or magic logs right now, i still wouldnt fish or chop them myself. Who on their right mind would fish their sharks themselves except ironmans and bots??

This nerf really only affected ironmans because they just cant go to ge and buy their skilling resources O_o

What im actually mad about is that because of this update, my BIS mage gear has crashed (alot)
So yeah, cheers jagex!

Love this update, haven't reached point where i would be doing zulrah or where i needed void, but this was called for for ages.
Fixing Void - had to be done , polling would not have reached 70% due to amount of pkers and etc using it.
Zulrah - hard boss for sure , but so much money from so little time spent just makes it look too easy and other content not worth time once you can do zulrah. Still poll with options like 10% drop reduction , 20% , 30% , 40%, 50% should have been there or something. . .
Serp helm - this one had to be polled as it was working as intended and such (or so i think).
World map - perfect.
Karamja shop - i am fine with this, but maybe should have been polled as well.
Wildy - someone kills you and you drop items ? Winner does not get loot ? Always seemed unfair. Not sure if other stuff were needed, but whatever , this did not pass poll ... This one is an issue because of that.

Not polling things is an issue, taking failed polls and adding them to game is an issue, but void should have been fixed (long ago at that), zulrah maybe decreased, but with poll too giving % options, karamja shop decreased with options to pick from as well, serp helm as well.

Polling stuff that would make game harder - would not have passed . People want ezscape, sadly... People say that this is turning osrs to rs3 , but in reality op content like this is turning osrs to rs3 ... Updates/fixes/nerfs came way too late and people got used to this and i can easily see why so much anger and dissatisfaction is happening , but is this what we want for the game ?

Ps. I am not a pro player ofc and this is mostly my personal opinion .

I suggest to everyone posting here who is offended at what just happen to your vote and your right as a paying member, Do not post here, instead let your voice be known throughout this forum. Post threads with your thoughts because the more threads made the bigger impact you will gain as a whole, I'm not saying to spam but rather as a whole made of 1000s of you let your post be seen and do so in a way that will impact this site greatly, posts on all Jagex social sites, and dont stop until you are seen!

In my opinion, if we lose Zulrah and void I protest the review and nurffing of raids and twisted bow as a whole, it's a god awful piece of content which glorifies only the top elites of the game with drops well over 100m for only 30 mins work, in a few hours one could in theory make well over one billion, yet 2/4m an hour for med level players is far too good a thing?

Im sorry but this is one of the most underthought and underplanned updates ever.. so someone complains that they fish for hours to get 200ish amount of sharks with their rubbish 76 fishing and complains that others kill Zulrah for 100 sharks right of the bat and you go ahead and nerf Zulrah ??

Sorry Jagex, I've been playing literally since 2002 and this is by far one of your worst decisions ever..

tad3j said :
I get the nerfs but removing venom and take the strength bonus away makes Serpentine Helm useless. its basically a Helm of neeitiznot now. actually neitiznot provides even prayer bonus. Why would someone waste 1.2 m on a helm that does nothing?

just for the anti poison effect is not worth it.

My thoughts on everything:

The world map was much needed, so thanks for the hard work on implementing it.

Zulrah honestly needed that nerf. Idk why people are complaining so much. Moneymaking shouldn't be as fast and easy as Zulrah made it. Very long overdue nerf there.

As for Serpentine Helm, I get why it was nerfed, but the nerf seems like a bit much in my opinion. Maybe give it a chance to poison instead of envenom? It just doesn't seem as unique and worth using anymore after this nerf.

Void was definitely needed, so thanks. Gear that's that easy to get shouldn't be so much of a game changer. On the other hand, I feel like there should still be a good incentive to do PC. Maybe put the pre-nerf boost on Elite Void? The gear is much harder to get, so the boost would be justified imo.

Not a perfect update by any means, but very much needed.

So money shouldn't be made this fast.

I TOTALY UNDERSTAND that it's totaly nice that now everyone can work for real money in a real way rather then banking off a boss!

Oh wait, we have raids, darn I forgot people are making about 200m every 2 to 3 hours...Oh well, like you said waaay too much money that 2m being made each hour, lets nuke it! yeah boy woo!~

So who wants to go make a few 100m this hour at raids? Hit me up yo
