While I find the idea of a PVM diary interesting, I feel like some of these are just setting the bar too high. If it’s a separate system from the existing diaries that would be one thing, but if the intention is to just throw it right into the mix with the rest then I gotta say no. If you want to make maxed stats a requirement for ANY activities (tasks) then it shouldn’t be needed to unlock other content ie: locking the diary cape behind this. Similarly to the quest cape where you need to complete all subsequent quests. If it’s decided to be a stand-alone task system like “Kourend Favour” for example- then it might work. Personally though I am not a big fan of this one. Especially with the off hand weapon, don’t want to sound closed minded but its getting dangerously close to rs3. I haven’t much input for the other proposed updates: The jad challenge is definitely a good idea though. Fun/neat idea for a cosmetic and bragging rights, absolutely no down side to that one- 100% a keeper.

When talking about this suggestion, people are saying that pures, skillers and not 100% of the content players are limiting their self. This is a great example of the selfish human being that just let others fall as bricks. For the people who do think for others and in a broad aspect, my respect. A fair update would not disadvantage like 30% of the players, but 0%. We often reach the 0% by not implementing Locked stuff, O.P. things and instead do implement fashionscape often.

The rewards don't seem that great that skillers and pures will be missing out that much, and yes skillers and pures have limited themselves and thus lose out on certain updates - it is not the prerogative of the community or the dev team to design content around those playstyles. Nor is it ever possible to satisfy 100% of the community, or "disadvantage" 0% of the community.

And if we're going to throw random % out there how about this one: Over 50% of skillers and pures have a main account and thus those players lose out on nothing.

The reward balancing is way too strong, if its supposed to just help ease people into things just having tasks to complete with xp lamps as a reward should be good enough. This seems like a band-aid to deal with instance problems and other issues you guys have no clue how to deal with and as a result this just hurts limited accounts and shows an ineptitude at creating solutions for problems without ostracizing parts pf the community like you did with rev caves

Ironmen already get special corp instance so you argument is invalid. Ironmen chose to limit themselves but were given special treatment to allow them to complete content, thus other limited accounts should as well

Can we look into removing the base combat stats as a requirement for the tiers. Some of the most impressive PVM content is done by people who are able to do it on accounts with lower levels. The idea of having completed master level PVM achievements loses it's impressiveness when you are being required to have base 90 stats.

Really nice Idea(s) but way too many rewards.

New Dragon Hunter Crossbow Designs
This could be released with a new PvM Dragon-based Trial similair to the 6 Jad challenge, or even better.

Accuracy Based Offhand
So why is there no alternate for Mage/Range? And who thought that adding what would become a BiS Offhand as a Diary reward? No we want Raid/Boss/PvM for BiS Gear, but a diary.

New Slayer Helmet Designs
These need to be located in a Slayer Shop of sorts and stop clogging up the Slayer Rewards page, Just keep scrolling, scrolling.

Those are the 3 that currently I'd vote no for, not for not wanting them in the game, but just not this way.

I really like some of those ideas of the blog, but here are my own ideas:

Offhand: As someone stated before melee is already packed with overpowered gear, while mage and ranged could use some better offhands

What if we could enhance Odium Ward, Dragonfire Ward and Twisted Buckler for 2+, 4+ Range Str bonus? This would not benefit the use of 2 of the strongest weapons in-game, Tbow and Blowpipe, so it would still be balanced

Malediction ward, Mage's book, Ancient Wyvern Shield, Arcane Spirit Shield for 2+ and 4+ Mage Str bonus aswell

Def lvls: Should not be required to complete any of PvM diaries, this would allow some heavy excitement and challenges for the pure community

Skilling Diaries: would be nice addition after the PvM one

Rewards: Should be given at 80% completion of the tasks in one tier instead of 100%, this would allow pures to avoid tasks as "kill callisto while wearing full verac's", while casual players could avoid one boss or another they don't like. Inferno should still be required for Grandmaster tier completion tho

PvM Grandmaster Cape could be given to those who complete 100% of every tier, for epic aesthetiscs

Iron man accounts : could have their own instances for free in GWD, the same way it works for Corp
