I know... 5 Minutes are quite short. But i dont have Time to test all the Weapons for each 1 Hour.

In the End i just have to ask u Jagex, Why the Fuck should i grind Crystal Armour or Blowpipe after the Update???


The Beta Blowpipe with Dragon Darts (kinda hardly rare to get as Ironman) is the only Weapon what outDPSed the MSBI...

I understand the Blowpipe Nerf, specialy the Mith Darts and Lower. But buff the Adamant, Rune and Dragon Darts plz to the Place, where they are at the Moment!!!


The Crystal Armour/Bow could also be better. employ an Item to evolve the Crystal Bow or just add an Crystal short Bow to the Game.

The hell is up with these new updates?? Nurf black d'hide, okay then.. But then also add new mage gear that makes binding spells last for 3 extra seconds???? I'm not trying to be offensive here, but did Jagex hire someone retarted to come up with gear ideas? o.O

On a sidenote, fair enough, encourage the toxic side of your player base to have an even easier time with killing pvm'ers.. But ffs, remove wildy bosses and clues from the wilderness then! This is such bullshit..

First of all, I've never used the blowpipe. I'm not that far in the game yet. Secondly, I wouldn't want to use a cheap op weapon. I think it would ruin the game for me. Glad it's being nerfed. (I don't use real world money except for the membership)

About wilderness pkers/clue hunters (of which I am the latter); I've never used that bulwark either. I think it's just fun and part of the game that there's this dangerous place of the wilderness. It's just like the wild west or any medieval scene where you can just anywhere be ambushed by bandits. It would take the fun away from it if you could just walk there without any risk.

Why do players want everything so easily? I like that there are some goals that seem so far away that you can only dream of them. I also love to "prolong" my game because I enjoy playing it. One of the stupidest things I've heard in the community is complaining of something prolonging the game. Why on earth are you playing at all if the most important thing is just to get over with the game as fast as you can?

What I also like to do in this game is to adjust my playing to be somewhat reasonable considering the circumstances whatever they are. If the blowpipe is not that useful anymore then I'll just consider, if it's worth acquiring, that's it. Why make a big deal out of it?

Then about people complaining that there's "meta" built around the blowpipe and that high level players have had that opportunity to use the unnerfed blowpipe while you will not have. So-fucking-what? Then use something else instead. I know this is an extreme example and has not even happened but imagine if botting had been allowed in the game for six years. If it were then taken away, there would be people complaining that high level accounts have had the advantage to enhance (ruin) their gaming experience with botting. And that there's woodcutting and fishing and whatever that is clearly designed around using bots.

Also buff longswords and longbows.

Before we randomly start nerfing and changing items within the game, i think we should first consider what we are actually about to do, and what items are effected by the changes, and not just wildly shoot blindfolded.


We have recently had a poll where the item "Tome of Water" was accepted.

Unlimited water runes
Standard Spellbook Water, Curse and Binding spell accuracy is increased by 10%
Standard Spellbook Curse effects are increased by 50% (e.g. the 10% defense reduction from Vulnerability would become 15%)
Standard Spellbook Binding effects are increased by 30% (e.g. the 10 second root from Snare would become 13 seconds)


Meanwhile we are buffing Magic, and the Crowd Control, duration when used on players, we are now also Nerfing/Removing any Magic defense for a lot of the wilderness Equipment people use.


I Really disagree with the nerfs, and the changes this implies will for certain empty out the wilderness. So on top of ruining ironmen and PvM / Skilling Accounts, your attempt to revitalize PvP is also making it impossible to Move anywhere and Tank anything within the wilderness, unless you risk the thousands of hours you've spent getting your B.I.S Gear.


We polled the Tomb of Water, without knowing you intend to remove our only option of fighting it.
