Bounty hunter.. Finally!
One little problem you guys have caused, altough it was for a good purpose.
Adding PvP made pking unbalanced. Less people went to the wilderness and less people are going to PvP. By adding another pk system it will ***** it up even more.
Difficult choice to make.
You could add a bounty hunter world for wilderness in 1 WORLD ONLY. And keep 1 PVP WORLD ONLY. If theres the discussion of " what about high risk worlds". Adding these will spread the pkers even more. I'dd say you add a ZONE.
Craters was a lot of fun but I slightly enjoyed the bh worlds a little more. Please add new weaponry into the game that makes pking more fun. We've seen it untill now. Armadyl godsword all the way. Maybe some new sort of chaotics or dragon claws could make it more fun.
EP will make it more interesting since people will have to stay in the wilderness zone which means more people in the wild.
Kind regards,

Uvaderr

How will bh affect the pk community?
The Bh doesn't affect wilderness much at all theoretically, Edge pkers will not be able to pk in Bh because of the environment. When pking inside bh no one uses only melee, everyone was hybriding, Mage/Melee or Rang/Melee. This would also encourage more people into the wilderness by having a psychological affect on people. They'd think, "oh okay all the pkers should be at bh, let me go to black chins, green drags, or wildy bosses.
Benifits of b*
The pk community is small and the crater is even smaller which would make finding opponents easier. It also had a reward system you got for killing bounties and would give you gold depending on how many kills you got. Clans are not a problem because you can't pile inside of bh. Only your target and one random person could attack you. So you would not have to panic if you saw a clan in the center of the crater. The distance from the center to the entrance was like running from 14 to 1 wild.
^ taking people away from edge and pvp worlds to go to bh craters, noty for craters

Random drops and ep. It made pking different and exciting for all levels. Adding statuettes kind of hurt the economy so maybe alter that. Or make a combination of the players items and random drops. Random drops are fun. Also having so many possible pking locations spreads people out. Since the player base is lower, maybe combine/replace some pvp worlds for bh words. This is an awesome idea tho and I'm excited to see it

Do you even know what Bh is? You cannot pk Edge style inside bh or even use dh to 1v1. All it's going to do is get you killed, if you want to play fine if you don't want to play don't go. Why ruin something for someone else when it doesn't affect you? :(
Here is a video if you're not to sure was it was like inside there. (https://***.youtube.***/watch?v=tQcFdGJEL1s)
PSS: I also think pvp worlds should be removed because it makes the game feels like one of those PS. Pvp worlds came out in 08 bh actually came out in 07 which is what year the game is based in. Also bh craters produced some of the greatest pkers of all time

What I loved about BH/PvP Worlds:

- Did not hurt the wilderness.
- I loved the EP system (minus where it got abused)
- I.E - I enjoyed the fact that you had to be in the wilderness for a while to be able to get anything.


If you guys are going to do this, I think you should fix a few things about the Wildy Rejuvenation update first:

1. Give ents better xp (at least 40-50k/hr)
2. Make it so monsters cannot PJ you in single combat
3. Fix black chinchompas so you cannot release them if you are in combat (the only loophole past the poll that I can think of)
4. Make elder druids not teleport you if the person you are attacking is running (they are teleporting the wrong person in this case)
5. Increase gathering speed by 1.5-2x at the resource area in the wild, remove the entrance fee, perhaps make it so you gather noted supplies, and make it so you cannot log out inside the resource area (solution).
6. Lower the strength/defense of mammoths and give them better drops so they are ideal for training (currently they are not)
7. Lower the levels of the dark warriors in the wilderness castle (or buff the amount of runes that spawn on the ground)
8. Remove the skeletons & scorpions near the abyss so you don't get pjed all the time.

** craters are terrible, worlds are the better choice because people can actually profit pk and fight people that are actually risking something.

You still have not explained why...? Anyway I'm pretty sure if this goes to poll most vid makers who was actually established pkers during 2007 will support it. I want wildy just how it is, so no bh worlds with statues that stuff is bad for the economy and had numerous glitches that caused mass bans and other complications.

I personally enjoyed the EP system in bounty hunter that extra loot because you killed your target not just anyone.

At the same time the craters are also something that where very fun.

With this said, why not both bounty hunter in the wildy with the target system and EP.
Now you may be thinking that EP causes inflation with the statuettes well I have the solution.

There would be a switch/option that each player could have when pking either taking loot that opponent drops, or the option to have the EP loot like back in the day.

The EP loot was random you could get items that people didn't have on, well this is the beauty of it, when someone on EP kills somebody else there items go into the EP bank, something player obviously can't see. Then from there depending on there EP they get loot from that EP bank. This way its always the same items in game being dropped as loot rather than creating items out of then air. For the statuettes they could be dropped also. To prevent inflation the statuette "bank" would get its value from both what is in the EP bank and what food and potions value disappeared during each fight in the wilderness due to nobody picking up.



This is very rough and broad, but I can't simple put all my detail into it.

The bounty hunter worlds where the place that clans would pk in, having 3 worlds that all pking clans where on was phenomenal, as opposed to having to search them throughout over 50 worlds to maybe get a fight.

Anyways I think I've said enough. :P
