i cannot deal with this further, i'm sick of hearing PvMers and Skillers constantly complain over "inflation & pking". Why, if its anything else that isn't pking you all love it and vote 75%+ on the forums. It's honestly a biased and unfair community, and the polls are completely stupid. The Questions and ideas need to come FROM THE PKERS, not anyone else. We're the only community that'll agree to disagree with the rest of you for better reasoning for the wilderness.

NO PK REWARD POINT SHOPS!

This isn't some private server where you can "buy" OP gear via donations or PK points. No offence but i dont even wanna see that, it's just stupid. it'll only cause people to care about KDR more and discourage people from pking at point. Consider it this way, people with low KDR will end up getting matched with people that have high KDR + the weapons / Armours that will end up killing them almost every time w/o any effort at all.

The Solution: Bring out these items from kills, make them the rewards themselves from actual kills so the majority of fights wont be unbalanced. Also, there needs to be GP made from pking, it's a main source of attention with a Risk Vs Reward Concept**

***; Brawlers
> Statuettes
> PvP Armours & Weapons

They need to be brought in the game, Don't complain about how they'd be used in other ways. The only reason i hear PvMers complaining is because it'll cause a problem for them if they get crashed or have other PvMers use them.

*They last 1 hr of combat, or 30 minutes.
*Degrade to coins if you die with it
there have been new items for clues, shields for range & mage, new staffs, amulets & other items. Yet you wont add these because it'll be problematic for you? What a hypocritical & biased community.

As A pker we need these things for BH worlds, There needs to be only 3 BH worlds total. That consist of only the wilderness!

> 325: +1 BH World (p2p)
> 337: non +1 BH World (p2p)
> 308: +1 f2p BH world

DO NOT BRING TARGET TELEPORTS EITHER!

The Counter Arugment that everyone makes:

"Wont statuettes affect the economy a lot?" Nope, wanna know why - Pkers barely risk when they're in Fights (Clusters, in Multi) Even in single pkers barely get loot now because the community isn't the same as before to where people use to bring out rune, mystic, ahrims ect. without fear of dying or having too small of a bank to PK because supplies cost so much.

All the money that made and put in the game by these drops HELPS the pking community making Pking actually have a benefit, making it Exciting and revitalizes people's opinions about pking.

"Well the inflation isn't worth the risk"

No? Why would it? What inflation could simply happen from a game with free trade, no grand exchange, no merc* clans & a money sink that happens from gaining these items.

If you die with the statuettes you tend to lose other items, even your +1 (everyone remembers how ancient stats even protected over divines) so there is a money sink, there is reward & there is risk. There is no general inflation happening, Pking costs money.

My return sets A lone are 60-80m (THAT ISN'T EVEN A LOT EITHER!) that's just enough to get by until i make more money so i can spend them on more supplies for Wars, Trips, and just casual single or edge pking.

1. Brews
2. Super Restores
* Prayer pots sometimes if you dont use brews.
3. Stamina pots / Super Energies
4. Super sets, Range Pots, Magic Pots
5. Sharks, Karams, Pies, Pizzas
7. Bolts (diamond +)
8. Armour (black * hide, mystic, rune, Barrows)
9. Glories
10. Tabs
11. Phoenix Necklaces (or rings of life if you're a noob)
12. Runes
13. Weapons

^ Do you all know how much that can cost? Especially if everyone grinds for 126 Cb to max main pk with clans or in single or something?

So the rest of the community feels like they can vote 75% and more on the polls that aren't pk related just because there's a small minority that PK now? I find that truly biased & Hypocritical.

Start talking the Pk Community

^I think you're getting 'Item Sinks' and 'Money Sinks' mixed up there bud.

uhhh no it's the same thing really?

1. you can choose to buy the armour, they or if you die they turn into a 1-2m cash pile or less. SO there is HUGE money sink
edit: forgot they degrade completely. MONEY SINK!!!

2. The item sink, is when stats protect over other valuable items causing more of a "risk" and the "reward" is well that +1

or if you see things as i would, like a pker should. the money gained from pking back then in BH worlds was more profitable because of stats. there was a reason PKing was more alive then, than all of Runescape's Community put together.

I AM A STRICT PVMER, BUT I AGRERE WITH TSTTSTSTSTTS, a shop would be abused to zeuz and back. but pking does need a reward somehow, i went pking for the first tiem in os for shuts and gigs, and i thought the rushers and 1 itemers where bad before osrs..., jesus christ its like a rats nest they are everywhere, there are no even matches i find, just people rushing with specs, witch to me isnt pking, thats just being a ******..

as for the rewards, maybe try to implement a system like a chance of greater loot (brawlers**** armours/wep**s etc etc) by the deepness and length of the target battle (length based on damage dealth/received not actual time so it cant be abused)

by doing alot of damage you are activly showing you are pking in the wildy, and by taking alot of damage, you are showing you are actually having a fight, not just rushing with a dbow.

the majority of pkers i see are ******** in robes with dds and d bows etc.., this needs to change, there needs to be a set minimum to ewnter the wilderness to pk, becase at least 5 people in 3 minutes wanted to fight me while im in full rune, and those in monk robes.

pvp needs to be comb9ned, there are too few players to have mutliple modes stretched out, maybe 2 bh worlds p2p and 1 f2p atmo pvm is the bigger scene, but hopefully pking will take its rightfull place AS #1, as i said i am a pvmer not a pker, but i have played runescape sinse 03, and i know just how much of this games players revolve around pking., and THAT is the trick to getting more players back into os, giving them the pking they liked minus the 1iteming ********, while the pvmers kill bosses for the **** that they wear, just like certain skills, pvm and pvp are link,ed too.

What on earth are you talking about here? I genuinely have no clue. Buy what armour? If you're buying it from another player, no money leaves the game, it just leaves your account.

I'm referencing the 'supplies' argument that you've come up with. You seem to think that buying supplies is a money sink when it's just not. No money leaves the game when you make those supplies because the ingredients to make those supplies are gathered, not bought from an NPC. If you then bring statues back into the game, it'd cause massive inflation. People are already complaining that prayer pots are 15k or whatever they are now, why would we want to inflate that any more?
