I was so looking forward to the quest, I still am but the rewards are clearly just shoehorned.
There's just way too much meaningless stuff in there like the achievement diary, agility course, crystal armor, and the crystal bow is still trash.

My thoughts? Cut half the rewards out and focus on improving the rest. Focus on value.

On a side note, why do you keep catering to those who limit accounts - ironmen and pures?

This is great. Lots of the ideas have me excited. The new slayer cave will be a nice addition plus with those bonus xp rates once the achievement diaries are finished.

I like the crystal impling idea as hunter has needed some sort of update and it would make sense for the elven lands to have this.

New agility course also makes sense. The new divine potions sounds awesome and it will give many players a reason to train herblore up from 90 for the raids 1 requirement of overloads.

I think the quest requirements are a bit low. I was hoping for + 80 ceiling for some requirements, but that's just more to my surprise since the elven quests have always established that top tier sort of requirement (back when runescape 2 was grindy). Clan Defy -

I like a lot of these new ideas, especially the addition of a new achievement diary although it would make the cape of accomplishment harder to achieve, it would open a new door for the players who have it already.

I am very sceptical about removing the imbued versions from Nightmarezone on the other hand. The crystal bow (+shield and halberd) are rewards from the roving elves quest (halberd form western province diary), and they aren't that good if they do not get the imbue which therefore makes sense that that is an option. However it would be a huge requirement for so many people (who do not have 70 base stats, hunter etc. ) who already obtained these items and their respectable imbues, to suddenly be added after deserving it.
I would therefore rather see the imbues of these current items to stay, and instead add a different enhance.

An enhanced crystal bow could for example have a special attack like the magic longbow. The crystal shield could have some higher magic defence while being enhanced.
And the halberd could have something else (I wouldn't know what to improve about this item).

I like the idea about the crystal armour, which I think gives a revived use of the crystal bow for non-pure accounts and the like.

Instead of putting regular bloodvelds why not put mutated bloodvelds, or stronger/buffed versions of the creatures you proposed?

Just seen the quest requirements and it seems it's doable on 1 defence builds. Will the quest itself give defence xp as a reward or will the area be accessible to 1 def pures. I use a pure as a main account and would love to start leveling skills for priff :)

Let us do like with Shayzien helm and slayer helm to combine the effects also to the Crystal helm and slayer helm. I want to be able to not be barred from using this crystal stuff in slayer just because I can't use a slayer helm and also have the full set effect bonus.
