I would love this update to be global and be implemented on all worlds. You guys said it best, it should be a dangerous step entering the wilderness. Although, the update doesn't have worth if there is no penalty not killing a target or reward for hunting him down.

I read somewhere maybe the addition of the pvp armours ONLY sparked my interest.

As stated above, possibly the addition of a cosmetic shop. We have the mining and agility outfits, what about adding some sort of notorious pvp cosmetic outfit--or something along those lines.

A reward is needed to make this update live up to its fruition and hype.

Big mistake on no added bonuses to target kills, just going to be another update to wildy that's seldom used and makes no real difference. At the very least brawlers could have been a rare target drop.

Brawler gloves are something that had a very negative response from players in the past. The idea of giving large amounts of bonus experience is not something that many players are on board with.

Making a horrible mistake giving into all these crying skillers by not giving pkers the extra loot they need and actually deserve. Incase you forget, one of the biggest draws to RS07 was the pking/old combats system. Please don't forget that.

PKing is an activity that many players enjoy because of the entertaining gameplay and challenge, providing extra incentives in order to make it easier to profit from PKing wasn't necessary back in 2007 and it shouldn't be necessary now. @JagexRonan

Perhaps an item similar to the old Wildstalker hat? Something to track your successful target kills that can be upgraded to unlock a different look/emote after a certain number of kills. @JagexRonan

You can't honestly compare this game to the actual 07. Its player base was far greater, supplies weren't as expensive as they are now, and people were inexperienced. Its 7 years later, people know how to pk without dying as easily, and aren't as clueless so it makes killing someone for profit that much harder.

Do you honestly expect low levels to enter the p2p wildy in decent numbers when all they do is lose money? Also, why do you jmods keep dancing around the fact that ANY added incentive will harm the economy? Really? Would a new item that is voted upon that can only be obtained through pking a target hurt the economy if it passed? There are many ways to go about adding incentives if all your worried about is hurting the "economy" which to me is laughable.

Sounds good, how ever what I would like to see is the removable of pvp worlds and make 2 bh worlds for members world 18 and world 65, world 65 can be a high risk world.

This would make pking much better since it wouldn't be as hard to find fights.

I don't like getting no bonus drops from killing your targets, make it so you can only get 1 target every hour like old bh worlds and you can get ep again however ep will only work when you kill your target and there is a small chance to gain statues and brawlers, maybe pvp armour also, killing random people will not give you any of these items.

Also seeing dp added back into the game for better loot when killing targets.

You can make it so brawling gloves can only be used on bh worlds like they were back in 2010, which would make it a risk to gain the better exp rates.

My last dip into this thread on suggesting a possible reward:

Useful items for when training like the herb identifier so you don't need to identify each herb one by one. A bonecrusher that burries bones for experience. A coin collector with a limit.

Could be a lot of other stuff that could be included, some skillet items like a log bag? Hold more logs! Some sort of spell that can repair runecrafting pouches by using it on them? The possibilities are endless on non drastically game changing updates.
