This is stupid, won't do anything. There needs to be actual rewards besides what people drop.
Agreed, EP or it's an automatic no from me.

lol wtf? As a vivid singles hybrider this is pointless.

1) To many worlds, 2 at the most is needed for p2p.

2) There MUST be an incentive for me to bother to bounty HUNT . There has to be some kind of reward for killing them (degradable armour, brawlers, ect..)

3) Ep system would be good.

4) make a poll that if bh is passed, if they would like to see PvP worlds gone. All of the people who enjoy singles, can start pking in edgy again. WHICH I LOVED THE FEEL. :)

- I actually disagree with a few here. I think teleporting to your target would be great. You don't know what could be waiting/hiding for you. The panic when teleporting would be pretty fun. Also people use to constantly run away from targets(hide in mage arena) which can get dull, and take the fun aspect of it away if they are running away from there targets to be ********.

You need to rebalance the gp rewards for loosing some of these untradeables then. Why is no cash dropped for barrows gloves? That is the most valuable risk that rune pures bring. Also 60k for a torso? Do you know how long it takes to get a torso? Especially with the crap community. Should be at least 500k or a mil, same with fire cape.

Add "Hunter Points" so when you slay your target you can spend points on a special shop that can sell the PvP armors/weapons among other things. Maybe even chaotics. That way if people want to PvM with chaotics they must pk. Bring like a sort of triangle to the game. of Pvm - Pking - And skilling. Making them all connected.

I rejoined old school Runescape because of the upcoming "bounty hunter" system. Although I've played and pked since old school classic, the Bounty Hunter world system was my favorite pvp era.

THIS current system however would be a terrible implementation into the game. It frankly only really provides a target and a teleport. Nothing more. THIS WOULD BE SO MUCH WASTED POTENTIAL.

As a veteran of this game and an economist IRL I would like to outlay a few benefits the 2010 system provided. (I believe a similar BH system to the old BH worlds would be exponentially better than this current content)

-Massive item sink
Bounty hunter worlds presented the greatest item sink in the history of this game. THAT IS A GOOD THING. In current OSRS there is nothing taking the common pking items out of the game. ( DDS, D scim, Rune items, Whips, Mystic, Food/potions ETC..)
This item sink has a DIRECT benefit to skillers. The removal of these items decreases supply and increases demand which clearly results in increased prices. = increased profits for skillers.

-Encouraged Skilling in wilderness
For BH worlds to be implemented effectively into rs it is absolutely essential that Brawler-like items be included as drops. Brawlers provide a incentive for pkers to skill in the wild AND skillers to pk. And in turn it provides targets for pkers to hunt. THIS REINFORCES THE WILDERNESS ECOSYSTEM ON ALL LEVELS.

My vision for this system would require much more development time, but it could be wilderness saving.

Potential to receive an opponents items vary on alch value.
RUDIMENTARY Examples:
40% chance to receive a item if alch value is under 45k.
60% if 45k-80k
75% 80k+
This is set up so that if you pk a valuable item odds are you will get it. roughly 50/50 odds less expensive items leave the game

Other stuff:
Risk to gain EP
degradable pvp weapons/armor
statues that can be sold for GP BUT NOT OVERPRICED so it keeps inflation low

ALSO a target teleport system discourages skilling as it is overpowered. Why skill in the wilderness if your target can instantly teleport to you and kill you when you are vulnerable? the hide and seek scenarios the old system occasionally provided were GOLDEN.

Remove one pvp world and only have one bounty hunter world (wilderness, not pvp world with bounty hunter)

the pking community cant be spread thin.

this stuff is elementary. come on developers....
