I recently switched over from RS3 to Old School, and I have to say the flow of content being added into the game is incredible.

I love that the devs are introducing mid-level content for players like myself. After reading through the attached post I'm throttled for this! New slayer monsters, a new boss, new weapon, etc... I can't wait! :D

Keep it up fellas ;)

No one has commented on it yet, but I really don't care for all the Underground Pass suggestions. Until Regicide, you only have to go through it, what, twice? Maybe three times? And then you can access the western part of the map without needing to go through it again.

The grid never changes, so it doesn't need to be skippable. The agility maze is already skippable with sufficient Thieving. All that leaves is skipping the entire level, which seems like it defeats the whole purpose of having the pass to begin with.

IMO, it's misleading to say you "have to essentially repeat the quest," as though all the things with Iban (the orbs, the paladins, the dwarves, the demons, the witch, the spiders, etc.), which actually IS the bulk of the quest, don't have to be done again.

Keep the Underground Pass as is. It's an iconic part of Runescape, a rite of passage of sorts, and an inconvenience that affects almost no one in almost no part of the game.

The forthos spider boss is an absolute disaster right now. Every world is camped by 3+ people with max gear and scythe. I'm max melee with bludgeon and max str gear and can't get a kill, even though this was intended for mid-level players?

The ultra-rich are getting richer off day one loot, while we get to watch. I've played this game for 15 years and today is the first time I've actually felt anger towards the game developers choices. Please add private instances ASAP so we can enjoy your new content.

I understand people are excited about getting a group boss, but if you're serious about creating content for mid-level players or pet hunters you need to make private instances.

I fully agree. I think it's fun going through the pass again. Over the years since 2005, I have done the quest on multiple accounts, in old RS and Old School. Additionally, I have traveled through the pass many, many times. Sometimes, I am annoyed at the prospect, but once I get in there, I really enjoy it.
Please don't change it.
