If gwd passes and so do all of the questions. What are your time estimations for a release date, give or take a week or so?

I honestly don't know. No-one's tried this before. I can see at least 2 solid weeks of work, and in practice there's always other work that needs to be done at the same time, which would slow things down, and then we'd have to deal with all the unforeseen issues. And then test it.

I implore you to poll this later, as Magic still has the same damage regardless of what prayer/staff/Equipment(void) the player is using.

Is it the difficulty of changing the Black Mask's code to Range/Magic?

The code's fine. It's the graphics - we don't have much in the archive that looks remotely suitable to be a hexcrest or a focus sight (or a Slayer helmet). Appearance isn't the most important aspect of a game, but important items should at least look reasonably appropriate.

And if i remember correctly, Nezzy helm has no negative range or mage bonuses, And gives a slayer bonus for Melee, perhaps it could be taken down this route somehow? However, This is not the thread for that particular conversation.

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]


Lol. I'm sorry, but I have no choice... I HAVE TO!

A 'damn' is something a beaver builds! :P

edit: oops I think I got the spelling off on that... a dam is something a beaver builds?

Before I forget... Thank you for this Ash:

''Quite simply, we think it'd be bad for the game if we introduce such a big source of the bars. It's not okay to be able to camp there all day and return with a massive stack of adamant bars; miners ought to have a reasonable chance to find a market for the adamantite and the coal required to smelt it. So, if you vote to bring back the GWD, you're voting for it with a nerfed version of that feature.''

Ash how about Zamorak Spear and it's special attack?

And what do you think about adding armour to every single one of the bosses, so it actually is balanced? Mage gear and attack boosting gear to either zammy or sara, either or, just so each boss offers the same thing relatively.

@ ** [EDIT] S-V (Why does it bleep your name out?) [END EDIT]
To be honest, as a pker, i did occasionally use Arma chainskirt and body while pvping, but i found the bonus to be kinda pathetic and not really worth the cost in price when compared to the difference between it and dhide, at least with bandos. The main reason i wore it was to greatly increase my risk when in high risk wildy worlds so i could get fights vs people in bandos. So while adding gear, #1, keep in mind, that currently they dont have the ability to design new models of gear, just recolor existing armor's so we wouldn't get any new looking gear. #2 balancing stats would be a very fine line, (just look at the current riot/controversy over bandos/barrows) #3 Ahrims is hardcore, i would be more campaigning along the lines of mage pots and staffs increasing damage. (also possibility of augry/rigour)

Again sorry for runon sentences, (more runon paragraphs actually)
I kinda think Ash might have been poking me a bit on that one im really bad about that.
