EVERYONE!! mod ash and the team are giving us an opportunity to build the perfect gwd. lets not ruin this chance to create a truly incredible gaming experience.

I think i speak for the vast majority of the community when i say the implementation of gwd is a make or break for this game...

GWD IS A MUST!!!!

I am so stoked but I've already found a couple of 'problems' I suppose if these problems are big enough then they will be NO voted to so I'm not going to complain I'll just mention them. I'm very impressed with how our staff team have handled the issue of GWD though, I really am. A++++

Armadyl crossbow - makes range more overpowered and makes Kree easier to farm.

SOL - DDS stakes become SOL stakes :P .

One suggestion I'd like to make about the AGS.

Instead of making it 60% for the special attack, make it 65%. My reasoning for this suggestion is simple; similar to the korasi sword, people could log out and start a timer as they log back in to find out when their special attack percentage would increase by 10%, therefore allowing a rusher to use the special attack once, having the special regenerate, then using it again. If the AGS special attack was made to 65%, this would not be possible and would rid rushing with an AGS in the wilderness.

No way 75% of the vote makes it a 60% spec anyways.

Few questions:

It always is when you post! :P

Original message details are unavailable.
Will adamant bars be polled, or just unnoted without question? personally i dont mind it either way

Just unnoted without question. The changes described in the "Poll questions" section will be polled. There's a summary of all the questions at the bottom of the blog for your convenience.

Original message details are unavailable.
Which boss will drop the staff of light, will it be Zamorak?

Yup. K'ril was a relatively unpopular boss back in the day, at least compared to Graardor.
This is confirmed in the blog.

Original message details are unavailable.
The anti pj measure, as noted in other threads, wont stop you from interrupting fights, you've said this could be polled later for pvp worlds, can it be voted for wilderness too?

Yes.

Original message details are unavailable.
Can the new dev tools change the crystal bow/shield to allow us to manually discharge it?

We can do that, yes.

Original message details are unavailable.
Why is the armadyl crossbow going to be dropped by the saradomin boss, wouldn't it be more logical to just call it a saradomin crossbow?

People presumably suggested the Armadyl crossbow be dropped in the Saradomin room because that's what the other RuneScape has. We could have something different just to be different, but there's not a lot of difference in it, and Armadyl items are a little less common throughout the rest of OSRS.

Original message details are unavailable.
Will the barrows amulet also have offensive stats? otherwise i guarantee you it won't be used at all, anywhere, ever.

We're willing to tweak the questions before launch; that's why we post the questions for your review in advance.

Excuse me if I don't always respond in detail to every single thing you post, btw. Otherwise I'd be here all day, and no-one else would get many answers.

Tbh, I'd thought of that too, but reckoned it was the kind of fiddly detail that the most skilled PvPers would use to great effect, and you can already see when the bar ticks up without being forced to log.

Hey Mod Ash :)

If the dragon tips or shards are added (for rune boots) would they just instantly turn into the dragon boots we already know of? Or would they be an entirely different item like "Dragon Tipped Boots:?
