Nothing has been said eather way as far as i can see so far, but can i get an a confirmation on the Amulet of the Damned, yes or no for Pking with it, if yes, that's insane. . .
Only slightly more insane then the people who believed that Bandos made Barrow's gear useless but . . .

Also remember not to make the new bow and staff's alc values crap like you always seem to do with range and mage weapons. What we want is a range and mage weapon equivalent to godswords, therefore if they really are equivalent power wise and everything else there is no reason to give them crap alc values *looks at ccb when I had to pk in only d hide and rune med and rune square not to lose it*. - That is if these new weapons even pass.

Ok how about changing up the zammy spear because it is completely useless in 07. Why make it a cosemetic dragon spear? Please poll changing its special attack into a peircing blow or something?

And I was really hoping you would add some armours to all the bosses because that would, you know, balance it? Bandos and arma have str boosting gear and range boosting gear respectively. Why not give zammy boss attack boosting gear and the sara boss mage boosting gear so they each offer awesome armour drops that are all useful in relative ways?

No need to add armour with def gear because that is what barrows are for.

I really hope you take my suggestions into consideration.

Btw Tyria if youre looking for balance between the 3 styles then you should look at EOC.

Because you believe a melee bias is acceptable in OSRS?

Me and Tyria have had our differences in the past but that was one of the more ridiculous thing's ive heard said ofit, we came to osrs because we loved this combat system, (and also) or in some cases because we hated eoc, we have the chance to shape it into something new, not repeat the same exact things over and over, the combat triangle was supposed to be balanced, each side having an advantage (not a guaranteed win) over the other, it is a fact, that in the past, both in amount of weapons, amount of prayers, amount of specials to choose from, and potions, and armour that runescape favors melee to some extent, there is no reason to repeat that, we aren't asking for mage or range to suddenly become king overnight, simple to be given the same amount of attention. (try range tanking shortly pre-eoc) you will see what i mean by one side of the combat triangle becoming less favored then others, there is literally a post, where a mod said "we are aware we have been neglecting range, however at this time we choose not to upgrade it, as we shall address this issue with our upcoming release of Eoc. . . ." Thats what where trying to avoid, devolving to the point where one side of the triangle just gets crapped on by both sides with simplistic ease 80% of the time, and the only wins are a result of luck, skill, or the other player not having one of several weapons released giving them a overwhelming advantage in a fight.

Question: If the GWD is released, a magic weapon similar to the Staff of Light would be dropped by K'ril Tsutsaroth. See the dev blog for full details.

It isn't necessary to add this as a completely new item due to K'ril already dropping the 'steam staff'. Maybe the steam staff could be replaced with the staff of light and the effect of the steam staff (unlimited water and fire runes) be added on to the SOL.
Name suggestion: Staff of Darkness (as being dropped by K'ril and not Zilyana).

Also, as new weapons are being polled, why isn't equivalent magic armour being considered? (Robes of subjugation).

If they do just buff the steam battlestaff, why not call it the steam of darkness :D .

Also please consider adding a special attack to the armadyl crossbow, otherwise its just another karils crossbow but with slower attack speed.
I'd be up for that. Does anyone have anything in particular in mind for it?


A suggestion I have seen before was 'Guaranteed enchanted bolt spec'. This would add an alternative range KO weapon to the dark bow as you could use the special with dragon bolts (e) equipped. Also it would NOT increase the max hit of range.
