i've already stated my opinion in the last blog but you guys didn't listen...the poll should have not been released so soon and now is not passing ... the old school team has been great with taking our feedback and implement good updates into the game but this is a more sensitive issue and should be re-polled and here is why....
immature kids or people that don't pk are voting no which is completely ridiculous as stated above and many other people. skillers and pvmers get to make good money so why can't pkers do the same? and i have read a few people saying that they voted no cuz the wildy is perfect?? are you kidding me. the wildy is dead and the only decent pking you can do if any is in cammy world 325 and you think we get money? you could attempt to fight someone at least 3- 4 before killing them because they tab when they are out of food or you can't k0 so you waste ppots and food . by the time you get a kill you can lose quite a few gp in supplies and make no profit at all, even if you get consistent kills you don't make much from rune legs glory and a helm, so if you think we make heaps of money then think again and i'm not saying its alwu make so much updates for skillers and pvmers such as new elite clues and wildy bosses. but can't give us pkers something we really want?
This BH was portrayed very well in this blog, there is just a finite amount of people who dont pvp and or didnt even read the blog...

BH only would affect pkers, this didnt even introduce a reward system yet people are saying no to it because they clearly didnt read the blog.... but hey that's fine continue to let raggers ruin the game for people and we will slowly leave.

Idea to incentivize pkers to PK in BH.

Points for killing targets being given a use: A bounty hunter rewards shop filled with rewards that cost a combination of points and money. You could add the old PvP armours and weapons to this shop, or something completely new, but it is absolutely necessary to give people a reason to go after targets, and by default, a reason to explore throughout the entire wilderness on a BH world rather than just edgeville.

Please consider a BH reward shop, otherwise it only serves the purpose of dividing pkers again.

may i just say, that i am not the greatest pker. back in 2010 when i was playing, the only thing i found fun in this game was bounty hunter's rogue, it was the only point i saw in skilling/questing ( getting some items, so i can be better at pvp). once bounty hunter was removed, and they put the wilderness, i simply just got bored and quit for a couple of years. i have now started to play again, despite having to start all over in old school due to the fact that bounty hunter might come back. in my point of view, i have been working hard and trying my hardest to get my account together so i can be atleast decently fit to pk again. i would just want it exactly as it was back in 2010, there was no problem that i saw. yes there was clans at some spots, so join one. in the 2-3 weeks ive been playing to get ready, ive only went pking once. for me there is no profit, and that is why i would like the statues, or some other reward, for killing the statue i dont mind, but give me a reason to hunt them down, maybe i could spent those points on the brothers buying some statues, idk.

just trying to let people see my point of view, thats all

I think the amount of people that would vote against a BH that includes any sort of statuette reward are at least equal to, if not greater than the amount of people who voted against this BH because it doesn't include them.


In other words, if it IS re-polled (Which it shouldn't be anyway, it already failed) to include the reward system, I believe it'd fail just as much, if not more. To quote those who criticise Artisan; 'Why keep wasting time with this?'. It's time to move on and bring us the next thing on the list, hopefully Achievement Diaries!

I spoke with a fair few people over the weekend and read through a lot of the feedback on Bounty Hunter, I have a question about PvP for any of you that use it.

One of the main complaints that I've been seeing come up is that the loot you get when killing someone is not enough to cover the cost of potions and food. Even if you go positive, the amount that you spend on your inventory outweighs what you receive as a loot.

One of the points that many people made was that untradeable items now replace a lot of the gear that used to give value to the kills you get (e.g. torso replaced rune platebody, fighter hat replaced neitiznot, void replaced... everything).

Would the loss of untradeable items on death help with this issue?

Also, would some form of minimum risk help with this?

I'm not suggesting this will be polled or implemented into any future content, I just want to get an idea of how PvP stands right now (as a whole, the wilderness and PvP worlds).

Thanks.

Just a note: I'm not suggesting that all PvP would have a minimum risk or untradeables lost on death, I'm just interested in finding out what the general feelings are surrounding certain mechanics. @JagexRonan

I'm glad you mentioned this. These are some of the core problems with pking. I can confirm that untradables account for most peoples Armour in the wild. For example if i am fighting a ranger i can almost 100% gurantee he's in full void risking 5 dragon bolts e, while he protects his dds on death, rendering the kill 0 profit. I think that most the pk community would be against the idea of loosing torso and void on death, but i agree with taking them out of pking worlds so that they would have to compensate with gear that is actually worth something.

Now on to the return on investment topic, Its hard to say but I think having a minimum risk would be a suitable solution. But i am still on bored with statues, and pvp armour like vesta.
