4). God Wars Dungeon. Before I start I would like to say, I have played this game since late 2005, and I understand how both party's feel about this coming to our servers. I have seen how overpowered the godswords can be, yet I have also experianced the fun (and profit) of bossing in the dungeons myself. Now, I will begin.

God Wars Dungeon is very controversial at the moment. I strongly feel that this update can be easily added, without effecting the economy or PvP community. Now how is this possible? Read on. I firmly believe that God Wars Dungeon should have their own WORLDS! Yes, make GWD worlds for players to go and boss Bandos all day,or AGS spec eachother in the wilderness (Not all Pkers are against it). This gives great end game content for those bored high level players who are tired of killing dragons for cash. Now I said this wouldn't effect the economy, or PvP, right? Well, yes, the economy in every world would remain the same, and so will PvP, because once you leave these GWD Worlds, the items will remain untradeable, unusable, and basically worthless. Now how is this fair? If you can't PK someone with, let's say a SGS, outside of these worlds, then you cannot complain about these weopons being "Overpowered", because theey simply don't exist. Now if you entred these worlds, yes you are OP, but you chose to fight someone of that caliber. Get it?

In simpler terms:
GWD World = GWD and GWD related items
Non GWD World = No GWD and no GWD related items

Of course, you can branch off of this and allow GWD item in any world (But Not In Wilderness) as long as they remain untradeable. This gives players more areas to train if they so desired. Ex. Ape Atoll with a Saradomin Sword. And it keeps the PvP community in check, as well as the economy. Obviously if you could sell an AGS or Bandos in ANY world, prices would go down the toilet for lower caliber weapons like the Dragon Scimitar or Dragon Chainbody.

Please take this into consideration.

yes to GWDS, Bring Back the same old GWDS with same loot and do not nerf the items what so ever

Yes to PvP Worlds, No matter what anyone says PvP Worlds were THE MOST ACTIVE PKING TIME no matter what time, no matter where you went you would ALWAYS find loot and other pkers

I would also like to see new things such as the wildy tag, but not in every world, it will be to easy to get the items and exp that you wish to give it out from the tags if every world is active.

Yes to clan wars in about 22 wild where it was in PVP days for easy teleporting back into the wilderness

People think that overpowered weapons will come into the game when Dark bow and void or range in gerneral is over powered... d bow can hit 48-48 thats well over the max of a AGS with max strength bonus and 99 attack/strength... Melee is underpowered by a ton, the max will be like 38-38 with a dds... which is 76 and darkbow hits 96s... thats 20 hitpoints more then the dds MAX hit... Also range has been the most overpowered thing since 07 started... nonstop hits with diamond bolts no matter what range level they are and the other persons defence is

As I said before:

Wildy Tag I can see happening with serious balancing.

CLW and PvP Worlds a yes.

GWD a major YES as long as all 4 main boss drops are not all Godswords. Zammy = Staff (dunno if I want it 1H or 2H yet, most likely 2H to keep the 2H theme going, though 1H will give it tons more use, so I'm more leaning towards 1H).

Armadyl = 2H Bow/Crossbow. "Revenge...is like a rolling stone, which, when a man hath forced up a hill, will return upon him with a greater violence, and break those bones whose sinews gave it motion."- Jeremy Taylor

I personally like the Wildy Tag idea! Although I think xp as a reward would not be very welcome across the OSRS community, I think it would be a fun addition to pking. I for one have always liked deep wildy pking better than lvl 1 and 2 stuff.

As for GWD, I think its something that needs to be implemented. Its no secret that OSRS is slowly dying. It NEEDS updates, without them the most you can hope for is a few thousand players online at once.

Hopefully once JaGex is finished launching divination and have fixed everything with RS3 they will spend a little time on upgrading OSRS!

I do not agree with this, I think you should be able to take the GWD items anywhere you like, that includes any >world< otherwise they may as well not bother with bringing back GWD.
