i really enjoyed the original lms much more than this version. while certain aspects were frustrating, such as not getting at least adequate gear, crappy pj timer, little to no incentive to play the game such as rewards... it was still way more fun popping chests to find useful items rather than having to kill someone to get a bis item. it's angled towards players who regularly tribrid, and for people who already know how/are good, why go to lms when you can just pk? im not the greatest brid but i've definitely fought some people who have obviously never tried once, and where's the incentive for them to play if they're just gonna get beat down. ultimately, old lms turned into a waiting game to see who runs out of supplies first, and this one is no different.

instead of unlimited prayer, i propose NO prayer whatsoever. with unlimited prayer, you force people to play a certain way, and people don't like that. lms didn't start as a tribrid minigame, it started as a battle royale minigame. there's nothing really battle royale about it anymore. it's a tribrid tournament. that's it. deadman finale lite

instead of starting with full invy/gear, i propose starter gear be ONLY weapons/pure set up (ie no armor). humans are addictive creatures and there is nothing more addictive than opening that next chest to see what's inside. not having chests to open but deciding the gear for players is like forcing fps players to play with a single loadout.

i was addicted af to the original lms, and was excited about the beta. i've been taking a little breather from rs the last few months and got mems specifically for the beta. while the original turnout was pretty nice, i've noticed the numbers drop drastically. the people who don't nh were the first to go, the people who liked the chests went next, and all that's left are pkers who nh in the wild, and once they realize they can make money pking rather than waste time in lms, they'll be gone too and lms will be dead once more

This game mode only allows those who are good at pking to thrive will die out fast like the old one because has a high skill requirement to actually have fun. With the adding of diamond bolts it is harder to range and far less fun. Needs to be more friendly to those who wanna learn to pk but are not some sweaty nerds.

Please make LMS friendlier for people new to PvP! I have never pked before and wanted to learn and have fun doing LMS but its wayyyyy to much. Im happy to learn how to use the whole mess of stuff you start with by trial and error but die before I can even think about what to do... It would really, really, really help me and others who are new if you maybe consider adding a "weight class" of sorts. For example, options to join a low level, medium level, high level class. A low level weight class might include a F2P option to start out with popular F2P pking levels and items like rune 2h, geen d hide, maple short, etc.. keeping it nice and simple for people to learn. A low level weight class may also contain a P2P option where you start off for example a very basic P2P pking set up like a minimalist G maul pure with 50 att, 60 str, 61 range, 1 def, 1 pray, etc.. And carry on the same methodology for medium and high level weight classes. Also, please make mobile mouse compatible. My tablet and phone work with a mouse but its a huge bummer that OSRS mobile doesn't. Make mobile MOUSE COMPATIBLE pretty please!

"we fixed it so its not rng based" except people out here barraging in tank hitting more dps on pray 1 way switching than actual brids, make this so it takes skill, if someone switches pray in time actually make it mean something, splashing in tank 5 times off pray is unacceptable when that person in tank isnt changing gear or prayer but still constantly hitting 30s through ur pray. this mode coddels to the people who don't know what they are doing instead of rewarding them for knowing mechanics

My feedback on this update:
Guthixian Icon/Staff of Balance
What does Guthix have to do with pvp? The staff itself is not a bad idea but I do not think this rewards fits a pure pvp minigame where Guthix is the only god with a reward added to it.

Bolas
Freezing in pvp with bursts is already very powerful for people who are not focussing on pvp in the wilderness. If you get hit with a 30 second freeze you are absolutely powerless. Therefore I do not think another source of freeze is necessary. There are already plenty of ways to bring freeze methods for any combat style.

Negative XP Lamps
These should not be added to the game. They serve no purpose at all in a game where progress is the main mechanic of the game. If people choose to limit their accounts by not training certain skills that is their choice but ingame mechanics should not be adjusted for this.


A bit late, but about warding:
Both the Pado set and the thammaron set feel greatly overpowered and effectively rendering void useless within their usecase. Can you explain how you balanced these armour sets and why they provide so much more bonus compared to void? Specifically since the earlier buff to void knight equipment has been done very cautiously only improving mage accuracy and damage by 12.5%. Now a level 60 set increases accuracy by 50%!

I hope this is the right feedback beta lms thread if not move to correct thread .

If you are new at this game or are just not very good at switching weapons or armor . It can be really frustrating . If you don`t have the dexterity in your fingers this game will not be for you .

Things i have noticed

The rng just does not seem right compared to- castle wars - clan wars - seems to be to high dps and defense seems to be lacking .



Some ideas that would help more casual players .

When you first start the game you get one random set either Range ,Mage , or Melee instead of all sets. As you kill players you can get the other sets . This way you can get used to each style of combat one at time .

If you are playing with friends , be able to watch them until the game ends if you want to .

Other modes

Be able to use no food - totally different play style and tactics without food - but be able to use potions .

Be able to have multi player games -Clans ,friends ,ect . along with the single player games .

Be able to use your own combat stats .

Going to go play more games now and will give more feedback .
