If you make "what lies below" as a requirment to buy battlesaffs could you remove the deffence xp reward from the quest so that pures and skillers can complete the quest?

Otherwise it could give a disadvantage for pures or skillers who want to buy battlestaffs aswell.

Duel Arena Changes

"We'd like to implement a tax on all stakes in the Duel Arena. Initially we'd like to propose a 1% tax. So as to allow items to continue to be staked we'd like to implement a Coffer which would require you to add Coins to facilitate the stake."

This sounds pretty unfair for lets say, people who PvM and work hard for the money just to see it being taxed if they wan't to stake.

"The ability to temporarily boost your stats within the duel to max. This option would mean that the odds stakers lose their advantage, and we keep the Duel Arena open. Note that the boosted stats wouldn't affect what equipment you're able to wield. A level 3 couldn't stake with an Abyssal whip, for example. The option would appear within the Duel interface. Players using this option will not gain XP in duels."

3 levels crowding the arena sounds bad.

"A trade weighting limit on stakes which would prevent one side being heavily weighted over the other. This again is with the intention of stopping odds stakers. It would work akin to the trade limit of old. You can stake as much as you'd like, but your opponent has to stake an amount which is within a certain range of your stake."

Trade limit all over again. I say please no. Oddstakers would just keep going and it isn't going to change even if temporary boosts are implemented.

Some ideas for mage arena shop.

Requires wilderness easy or medium achievement diary.
The level is broken and requires x construction level.
Use bounty hunter store points to unlock it or they only accept the points for runes.
The area is made an extension of the wilderness and players are only safe there for 5 minutes a day.
A new mini-quest which requires the player to gather items in the wilderness before they will sell you runes.
Kick player out of the area when they log out/hop.

Good ideas for the most part, but I disagree with the change to pickpocketing. I feel like it will make more strain on the wrist for people playing legitimately, as pickpocketing in ways that take advantage of lining NPCs up are currently a good alternative to blackjacking if you don't want high variety of apm.

If you're looking to punish people autoclicking, a script to right click open all will be very easy to make indistinguishable, while it's just going to hurt people like me who just don't want to need to move the mouse as often as blackjacking requires.

Players can easily bypass this by having lvl 3 ironman fights in wilderness and trading the amount of gp/items agreed upon to the winner. Redundant idea, easily made irrelevant.

2006 called, they want their trade limit game mechanic back.


The Mage Training Arena: Enchanting Chamber:

Just make the regular orbs more viable than the d stones, the entire room is devalued by having the optimal method be world hopping and enchanting the d stones every 7 minutes. Perhaps increase the runes obtained from depositing the orbs in the center, or increase the points per orb to make it better than the d stone method.


Stealing the Wine of Zamorak:
Add in a 3rd floor for those with 750+ total if you're going to base the 2nd floor off of players with 500+ total level. Perhaps make the monks in their aggro to anyone, that way you can't camp to a full inventory but rather collect a handful per inventory and have to leave before potentially dying.

Anti-Dragon & Dragonfire Shields:
This will barely affect the botters, they already have multiple quests able to be botted, this would just delay the inevitable. They (botters) would be back up and running within a week or so. If the shields required quest completion, that could be a more effective deterrent.

dont tax stakes
wtf... that is the single most annoying thing i have ever heard of, and 1% wouldnt even do anything... taxing stakes lmao.. you people didnt learn your lesson when americans broke away from you because you were taxing them without representation. keep it up.




ps:

i got hasta scammed on video
, interested in banning him? or just allow me to get screwed over.
i won the first duel, then he swapped his broken guthan spear for a z hasta and i didnt notice because im not used to people scamming ME. i have it all on video. are you going to do anything about it? or just let a legitimate player get scammed out of
480m
. i have video evidence of the entire 2 stakes. or do you simply not care at all and just go about your day like its ok.

and honestly if you really dont care and theres "nothing you can do" , then whatever happens happens.
taxes for the church, taxes for the mayor taxes for the sherrif, taxes for the king... its a wonder there is anything left to eat,
does it look like i've struck gold here?

One more piece of content you missed that is made almost unplayable by bots is runite mining.

They run on timers so they are incredibly hard to compete with for an activity that only a limited amount of people can do.

Mining guild and Heroes guild are both overrun by them.
