'A more elaborate idea is to create a series of randomly-generated tasks that must be accomplished on a PvP world. For example, a player could be challenged to buy a special box from an NPC and deliver it to another NPC (without hopping worlds). If they succeed in this, they are given their money back, plus a reward consisting of some kind of tradeable resources. If they get PKed on the way, their killer would acquire the box and would be able to complete the task instead to claim the reward.'

Great idea, go with this. Far better than allowing xp multipliers - there are always going to be so many ways around those.

Hmm I don't think PVP worlds would be great for the game. Maybe I'm wrong but Edgeville is having a pretty rough time of it as it is, this would certainly spread out the limited number of pkers. All the other updates seem great though, I'm sad that it's not slayer or augry/rigour themed but I was expecting this.

Would like a VLS that degrades within 10 hours of combat and required 2m to recharge it ^^

It all sounds good. I have a feeling that PvP weapons and armor might have trouble passing though, since there are a few items within the set that are a little bit OP. (which will be sad, I'd like them)

Like the fact that miasmic barrage halves the attack speed of your opponent's range attacks, I always thought that was a bit weird.

Indeed maybe removing their spec or making them less overpowered would be really nice, because i'd love them seeing in runescape 2.

interesting great read Ash & Nexus

though instead of disintegrating items i'd like to see items that degrade like other items do (like barrows) instead of disintegrating, the items getting, maybe slightly better offensive stats but with slightly weaker defensive stats?

Tbh, with items as complicated as those, we thought it might be simplest to start from something familiar. If they come out unpopular, we can work towards something more suitable.
