Wow, im really blown away about how incompetent the old school team really is. Something in the wilderness is high risk and without high reward will be completely dead. You realized you made shitty content the first go, rev caves were dead within a week of being released. But then there was hope! They got the buff they needed and it was great and it was very active with pvmers and pkers alike, of all combat levels. Now you go and nerf it so bad, that it is even worse than before the buff??? QUIT LOOKING AT YOUR GARBAGE DATA AND LOOK AT WHAT PEOPLE ARE DOING IN GAME. Pre buff = wildy completely dead, post buff = wildy finally active with new pkers and pvmers the lot, post nerf = wildy completely dead. No one will care if theres too many resources in the game if your games dead and no one plays it.

Jagex Team,

As a player, I could highlight strengths and weaknesses of this update in my personal opinion.

Strenghts:

- No more cannons. That's good, since even maxed players were using this method, crashing down weaker players.
- Drop rates reduction. I don't really know if this is a good point, since I did make 1-2m per hour with a godsword and no cannon. Although not so much as 6m, it was quite balanced.

Weaknesses:

- Drop values reduction. Jagex not only reduced the drop rates, but also the drop values. This was a meaningful change accountable for the emptiness of revenant caves since the update.
- Once that revenants are no longer profitable as it were because of the prior point, soon it will probably become a dead content.

Surely there would be a lot of other considerations that could be made, but those are the main, I think.

So i tried this out for myself after reading how bad it was, figuring it cant be that bad. I was wrong. Its WORSE then what i was reading. I was there for 30 mins, killed about 40 revenants and got 80k in drops... This is absolutely rediculous. Why would anybody risk getting pked for 100k an hour. RIP Rev caves.

I understand a nerf because it was quite the money per hour. But since its in the wilderness (especially 29+ wilderness) i think it should be buffed some. I went down there and hardly got anything good in 2 hours of testing. 250k an hour isn't worth going out there. I got even less then that before. It is pretty much dead content that ended up being a waste of time. You can improve the drops a bit more so that the risk, matches the rewards otherwise the rev caves will just be a place where people can run into to escape pkers from another part of the wild.


RIP rev caves. i hardly knew ye.

So because of the kids memeing and complaining on reddit, you decided to nerf revs, without polling? You can't introduce updates and then change them so fast, either test and get it right before, or don't release at all. I just went and read through every single comment on this forum, the consensus? Jagex doesn't know what they are doing, and 90% of us are in favor of revs not being nerfed. Take away cannons, sure. But nerfing both drop tables... I mean pick a happy medium guys. I've been playing this game for 15 years, and this was the best I've seen the game and community in that time. Pvp and pvm in one place, nothing else couldn't brought the player-base together like that. Maybe try out the updates yourselves after release, or be more thorough in your development, I don't know. But whatever you're doing is too close to the atrocity called rs3. We aren't paying you to cherry-pick reddit comments and take that as the voice of the players, read through the comments on this forum, do a tally for those in-favor and against, that will give you a good idea of what we actually want.
