Fm kind of makes sense, given how that area literally has ice spiders.

Maybe have the Ghorrock trolls take logs as a currency (instead of gp) to trade for trollish items? Given the GE price of logs, maybe start with 50 fm and only accept mahoganies and higher? This could introduce some interesting wildy mechanics, such as a single-use 1-click tp to Ghorrock trolls when nearby (e.g. from rev caves, wildy GWD, regular GWD, or wildy agility arena).

Another option is to train both slayer and fm by having gargoyle-like mechanics, where the Ghorrock trolls can only be finished off by lighting them on fire, which requires logs. Maybe even introduce something specific (kind of like pyres), such as peat (which might be the mineable), which is made specifically as a slayer finisher?

Also, what if, as a reward from the quest, there's an equipable tinderbox? It only adds 1 to the max log count in inv, but maybe make it so that, when the special tinderbox is equipped, one can right-click to light the logs?

And for something silly, add fireworks as a "weapon"? We already have explosives from Regicide, so gunpowder isn't that far of a stretch, right? Possibly use different kinds of herb tars to color the fireworks? (Regular dye doesn't seem to make sense.)

Finally, and this is just a thought...maybe throw in a consumable, e.g. a lava rock, that can be used to provide protection from the cold at GWD/Wintertodt? Might want to make DT a prereq for the quest if this is the case, since part of the challenge of DT is beating Kamil with severely, constantly drained stats. And to keep it from being too powerful, maybe only give it a 90s duration, which would be enough time to tp to Trollheim and run to GWD, but not so much that it makes the Wintertodt trivial. Alternatively, make it so that it fully protects from drained stats, and only partially from snow damage in Wintertodt.

Seriously? A part 2 to my arms big adventure? Can we not be a little more creative. Im not against a squal quest by any means. And arm could be fun. But I think we are due for something new. Literally the last major new quests have all been squals. Dragon slayer 2, monkey madness 2... great quests but come on, lets do something different.

Now what I agree with:

Firemaking...you nailed it on the fact the firemaking is not benefitial what so ever other than for a few quest requirements and an easy skillcape. Where I think we’ve fallen short though is the designated fire across the map idea. Granted the idea is undeveloped but when you say you light a random fire on the map and you get some random benefit. Ya...no thanks...

Want to make firemaking useful but more importantly, fun, and exciting to train. Introduce something cool like fire arrows. Yes they exist but make them more than something you use to cut a rope in the underground pass. Maybe we add a new snow themed location where monsters are weak to fire, spells, fire arrows, and flaming spears. Somewhere with a cold effect that if you light a fire you negate the effect. And maybe get a boost similar to rapid heal that gives you 1hp every so many game ticks. The idea can go on and on. And maybe making friends with my arm get you there. But look at thr big picture. Not just light a fire and get an ability.

And give us bonfires like rs3. That shit was brilliant.

A perfect opportunity to finally address mage's PvP variety issues has been butchered. A staff only useful for wilderness npcs...really?

4 years later and we're still limited to godspells. Even fire surge is only useful for hybriding, if even that..otherwise giving up a shield helps the opponent more than the higher damage helps the mage, especially when opponent's using venge is accounted for.

Believe magic to only be for support? Think again. It's just as valid of a Pking style as melee and range is.

Since Thammaron's scepter is dead content, how about giving it some PvP uses? A built in spell perhaps, like the ether, all charges would drop upon death.
