obv is comes from monsters and skilling like it pretty much always has but even if u took high dollar items geared up and still got generated loot it could still be setup and if they didnt even attack back and was setup it cant be compared to normal methods fairly

if a poll passes for random loot to be generated that doesnt exit from targeted kills that could be the start of the downfall of osr*


Explain your reasoning.


He has no logical reason, but i'll explain why randomized loot is good.


Removes excess items.

Raises value of removed items, gives incentives for people to train slayer as example because it'll be highly profitable once again without having to keep adding new monsters and items.

Creates a system that makes it more exciting pking, because you'll never know exactly what you'll get! Trust me, it gets boring knowing exactly what items you're going to pk if certain conditions are met..

It removes item such as rune platebodies and black * hide which can easily be obtained and raises the price of rare items such as D fulls, dfs, and barrows pieces.

Okay hopefully MMK can read this and change his mind.

It's pretty obvious by now what you guys are trying to do. If this passes your hopes are rewards will later pass too. However there's two issues with this. The first is the fact that this subpar content has to pass in the first place. PvP community probably won't appreciate terrible PvP updates. The second issue is that you're expecting the rewards to pass the poll seperately. You're risking wild activity, 3 worlds, and clan fighting for the chance that the rewards will pass later. If they don't we're left with dead and useless content and nobody will trust the 07 team's word on PvP updates.

How about you guys take your time with this and educate your players on a good reward system and hope they pass it together with the BH mechanics. If it doesn't happen - oh well no biggie. If it does pass then we get good content. Right now you're gambling with the already low PvP activity of the game. We all know this update is going to suck without rewards Ronan already admitted it plenty times in his CC. If you don't trust your own content why in hell would you poll it? You're treating players like the RS3 team does.


Still waiting for pvp worlds to get rewards....

They should have a major poll for just Bounty Hunter, that will address all aspects such as the mechanics and most importantly the loots.

They should give a wide variety of possible loot, such as raw material or nerfed brawlers or nerfed pvp statues or new tokens traded for cool rewards that aren't just cosmetic and useless.

They're derping hard on this. It's too much of a risk for us to vote yes on. If they just got the public educated on this then it would pass a poll. If they rush it like they are now then we might get stuck with a crap BH system.

Post-pone the poll until later. I think it's being rushed. Look how long you've been waiting to poll Artisan and how hard you've been working to make it to the community's liking. Do the same for Bounty Hunter. We need to get this right.


Pretty much this.

This has probably got to be in your* top 5 dumbest moves, if you go though with it.

Ive been pking for 10+years..check my history

And im gonna say this is a really dumb idea...jagex doesnt have enough players to support this. IF they did it could be really good but the 300 ppl pking should be concentrated rather then spread amongst worlds

Support.

Post-pone or add like 50 poll questions so that we will address everything all at once, instead of dragging it out for months possibly years.


Example poll questions;

1) If Bounty Hunter passes, Do you want pvp statues? Yes \ No


2) If Bounty Hunter passes, Do you want pvp statues to remain the same? Yes \ No

If yes - they will remain the same.

If no - they will reward players with less gold coins. (100k instead of 500k)



3) If Bounty Hunter passes, Do you want brawling gloves? Yes \ No

If yes, should they remain the same? Yes \ No

If no, They give less experience and give different incentives like extra resources while skilling? Yes \ No


4) If Bounty Hunter passes, Do you want extra rewards such as raw materials which includes scarce items like; unids, herblore 2nds, oak planks, raw and cooked fish up to dark crab, smithing materials, farming materials, etc? Yes \ No

FIRST you have to grasp the basics of economics. SUPPLY/DEMAND.

What makes an item rise is higher demand than the supply.
What makes an item fall is higher supply than the demand.

BY releasing rare loots into a randomized drop table for PVP, the supply would be increasing tremendously, with the demand not rising, but falling. As the items are coming into the game at an accelerated rate. Which will yes, of course, cause for the decline of osrs...
