If i may ask, you have been around for quite some time as a mod, what was the original thoughts for the specials behind Torag's, Karil's, and to some extent, Ahrim's?
Beats me. I was certainly working here, coordinating the update process each week whenever a developer had a project to launch, but I wasn't involved in the design of anyone's projects (except when I wrote my own, such as Swan Song). The original Barrows developer left Jagex - and possibly left Britain - some years ago so I can't ask him.

Those specials were all relatively straightforward to program, certainly compared to the kind of specials that get programmed these days. Maybe that's related, or maybe not.

Since these sets of gear are already quite good and where known to have maintained there usefulness in rs2, would it not make more sense, to look into giving Karil's and Torag's Usefull set effect, And possibly, modifying Ahrims staff to make it 1 handed, or modifying its set effect in some way?
These are certainly possible from a technical point of view. That said, changing existing items in an old-school game is always controversial. That's why the blog focuses on offering new things rather than rewriting the familiar content.

Now, assuming the amulet doesn't pass in its current state, we could offer a version that had different effects on different Barrows sets, and choose effects that benefit Torag/Ahrim more than Dharok, etc.

The first two are ungodly annoying in the crypt, might have something to do with it. Ahrims isn't..that bad.

Is > Staff of Light < going to have 15% Magic Damage just as it was released in the Main Game?
We don't have archives of every week's update, and sometimes it's hard to spot all the fine details of what everything did. For now, I'd presume that the 15% magic damage boost will not be included, since it wasn't in the blog. Given that various people have commented that a magic damage boost would devalue the master wand, that might be for the best, for now. The damage boost could still be added later, with its own poll.

Can we add Focus sight to Spiritual Warrior's drop table, and Hexcrest to Spiritual Ranger's drop table?
We can't offer you those items.

I'm sure there'll be people out there who'd argue that 50 isn't enough either. Let's start with what we've got.

The whole argument of devaluing the master wand is not valid. I suggested in the thread that other staffs would be getting that boost as well, Master wand being the second best in the game(10%, no other staffs will have this bonus) because it has LOWER requirements then the Staff of Light. Master wand requires 60 magic, and Staff of Light requires both 75 attack and 75 Magic. Master wand is more accurate than the Staff of Light is, and will be the best option for pures making its value stay steady. Thank you for replying to my post, I really truly appreciate it, Mod Ash. I implore you to poll this later, as Magic still has the same damage regardless of what prayer/staff/Equipment(void)/potion the player is using and that should definitely be changed.

Is it the difficulty of changing the Black Mask's code to Range/Magic? Melee is the only class that is able to get this boost while slaying, but Range/Magic don't. It can just be changed into recoloured versions of Black Mask can't it? These monsters are currently useless, and adding these drops would actually make it worth while. Not to mention, Melee already gets the 20% boost with Salve Amulet (e) and Magic/Range are left behind. PvM needs to be buffed for Magic/Range.

Ok, thanks, for the answers, just wondering, if there is possibly a change cant wait to see the debate on that, all i know is if there are to many more weapons brought out (other then preexisting ones such as ags/ss that have increased damage/double hit specs ill puke, some original specs are greatly needed. I guess we will have to wait and see what the player community thinks about the AotD in the polls. On a completely unrelated note. How is damn not considered a word to be filtered? (I agree, i dont like the filter in general, technically this game is supposed to rated T for teen in american Esrb rating system, not sure what rating Britain uses.)

[Don't need an answer just a musing]
