126SOUTHEAST: "If the economy issue is what's really holding you back, then that's something we can easily face later on in other aspects of the game by taxing certain things, making some things degradable, etc."
Statuetes brought a huge amount of gold into the game, no reasonable tax will solve a problem like that. Besides, what the hell is the point of bringing in lots of gold, then taxing it to get rid of it? Just don't introduce it in the first place... -.-

To those above who want EP, it will weaken the economy as it did back when EP was in RS. NO EP!

To be honest the best idea would be to implement a toggle in pvp worlds.
As in if you want to play BH, you can pay the 10k and that makes you able to be assigned a target and be assigned as a target. The 10k would automatically skull you with the red/blue/green/white skulls based on amount of risk. That was it will not divide the community more, while maintaining pvp worlds and BH.

And please explain the mechanics a little more; does the 10k go down the drain if your target logs out? Does your target also have you as their target, or a different player?

Yeah man, you're right. What's the point of having PKing (what makes Runescape strive as a game) be rewarding? Don't worry man, I won't argue with you LEGENDARY PKers anymore.

This game is dead'ed.

What you need to realise is that if we were to poll an EP system, the poll would fail and we'd have nothing. As you can see in this thread already there is opposition to it.

The decision for what goes into game is made by the community as a whole and not sections of it, so we need to make sure we represent every part of it.

Laugh out loud.

I don't know how I can read 60 pages of feed back and get such a different impression of what people want, or you just refuse to give what people want.

After 60 pages of people saying they wanted extra drop similar to bh worlds you completely overlook that and are simply going to add a target system and not only that you have to pay to get a target and it has nothing to do with being in the wild..? So you lose the extra activity in wild of people waiting for a target and you add a cost to participate. AND you don't add any extra loots.

I just can't get over my amazement at the result of your interpretation of all that feedback. Mod Ronan posted on around page 56 a better idea than this, his idea wasn't perfect but it was better than this, you seemed to have digressed a ton.

Your stubbornness to not add any loot rewards is appalling, I can kind of see some resistance to adding it to every drop, but so much resistance to even adding it to a random target..?

The ONLY good thing I see from this is the 50k risk requirement to enter. Dead content incoming. Maxed Sept 24th, 2015 - 134th to max

Remove PvP worlds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anyway the problem with this idea is the Current rs population... It's too small for this, that's why craters would be a good idea because the size of the crater is 1/50 the size of the wild. I doubt this would pass, atleast give us other options on poll like, do you want this, or Bh craters (old)...

Without EP, this is going to fail. If you want this to work, take out the PVP worlds that are currently available and do it EXACTLY how it was in 2010 with the same mechanics. Not lazy crap or stupid "solutions" that ruin the entire experience.

4 worlds.

1. P2P - PVP/EP/Target System. Wilderness only.
2. P2P - PVP/EP/Target System. Wilderness only, backup world.
3. P2P - PVP/EP/Target System. Full area PKing like the current PVP worlds with hotzones.
4. F2P - PVP/EP/Target System. Wilderness only.


This pretty much, but here's my exact proposal.

4 worlds (2 P2P PVP - 1 P2P BH CRATER (Crater members only) - 1 F2P PVP)
1. P2P - Bounty Hunter Crater (Single Combat) - Target/Penalty system
2. P2P BH-PVP - FULL WORLD HUNTING
3. P2P BH-PVP - Wild Only Hunting
4. F2P BH-PVP - Full world or not/Either or

In this method we utilize the existing PvP worlds, and you can assign one co-existing world the 1 BH crater world or create a new one.

Essentially 3 worlds, 2 PVP 1 BH, all offering different forms of BH without giving you too many worlds to play in. The crater world wouldn't be dead because it would provide a place to single pk only whereas the wild doesn't do that right now. That may birth Single/Luring teams again.

As for people complaining about the rewards from EP and EP in general, I'll leave my opinion out of that. Honestly I feel as much as you think EP will mess up the economy it'll keep people logged into and playing the game whether they're afking or not. They're online, in the wilderness and have to empty out their ep and rinse/repeat some way right? EP'ers didn't exactly live the luxurious life. I can do with/without though.

Honestly, and I can't do anything about this. You have people who don't contribute to the remainder of the OSRS clan world, what I believe RUNS this wilderness complaining about economy issues. Did stats and pvp items ruin the economy? Or Claws/GE/Sigils/BoBs/Flasks ?

Like I said before, an EP system or additional loot system is unlikely to pass a poll. This is why we are polling the mechanics and once they are in, we can look at how to incentivise it further.

The player will then be given a target that is on the same world as them and is within 10 combat levels.
Would prefer this be lowered to within 5 combat levels. If I'm pking the most I'll fight is someone 4-5 levels above me, I would never, ever consider fighting someone a whopping ten levels above me. I'm currently 83 cb zerker with 85 str, if I fought someone 8-10 levels above me I'm looking at fighting a near maxed zerker which isn't going to turn out very well for me.

Anyone willing to take on the challenge of hunting a player down will have access to the spell Teleport to Target which will teleport them directly to the player they are tasked to kill.
This entirely defeats the purpose of hunting someone down if you can teleport directly to them. It takes the "hunter" out of "bounty hunter".

Yet you say this, my reddit idea WITH A REWARD SHOP went down extremely well on Reddit with skillers even agreeing on the idea because of raw supplies.

This is going to suck if extra rewards aren't added, I can't under why you're so scared to add this to a poll? If it fails, it fails and we can carry on without on and add this boring system that is suggested.
