Noticed a few issues with the world map both with the aesthetics and functionality of it.


The aesthetics

- The font is not similar to how it was in 2007
- There is a weird red tinge on ice/white wolf mountain

The functionality

- Missing labeling for several major attractions/landmarks and cities
- Completely missing certain underground areas on the map (ie rogue's den)

At the risk of being unpopular, I actually really appreciate this update.

Both Void & The Serpentine Helm were very overpowered and needed the nerf.

I personally gain from this update because as a 13 def Addy Gloves Pure, entering Bounty Hunter and having a Void Ranger as a target put me at a massive disadvantage because they had access to completely over powered gear at only 42 defence.

On the other hand I completely understand the frustration of the players who have spent a lot of time basing their entire accounts around this gear.

However, this update needed to happen eventually and I support it 100%.

Well done Ash & the OSRS team!

Also the map looks awesome! Keep up the good work. :) :) :)

Zulrah was the only boss that came remotely close to Raids. I guess it's all Raids now. Nerfing void seems pointless, it will still be better in some situations and worse in others compared to armadyl and god d'hide so it's uses don't change at all. Void wasn't even overpowered on it's own, especially not with medium tiered weapons. The 20% damage bonus is fine with crossbows and most shortbows, it only causes problems with ballista's and the twisted bow.

After watching the stream last night and going through twitter and such. I can understand the need to nerf void and zulrah but your reason for void was the low reqs and lack of input to get the armour. Could someone now explain why you pulled the serp helm down to the level of the nezzy? Which same as the void is low defence and locked only by a quest/ low input? The serp helm is a drop from a very high level boss and requires 75 defence to equip. So of course it is going to be better than the nes helm, Well it should be anyway. Where as with the cost of scales it is now put below the nez helm in usability. I sincerely hope this was not your plan?
