15+ year Player here-
I understand that you need a way to make new item tiers of weaponry and armor, but you’re going about this the wrong way in my opinion. Let me explain-
As new monsters or bosses are added to the game, with them likely comes new best in slot gear, weapons, armor etc. This fact inherently makes older pvm content easier for example giant mole, daganoth kings, godwars dungeon much easier. This is a side effect of game growth and expansion. Older bosses will be easier to kill with newer weaponry. Twisted bow decimates mole, prime, and zilyana.
I propose that you think about different opportunities to nerf the blowpipe since you wont listen to community about polling.
What about making new zulrah unique darts for the blowpipe? Players could still use bronze to dragon but these new attachment to darts could be added to any tier of metal dart and would render the dart untradeable similar to cannonballs with granite dust?
What about adding a new type of monster defence and weakness? This would open a whole new world of combat items while making some items best in slot for some bosses and not so great at others?
What if you made the blowpipe only use one type of dart droppable by zulrah and create a brand new weapon from higher level content in the future that uses the metal darts? This would control the dps output from the blowpipe.
As an iron who just got their blowpipe this month with over 2000 hours playtime... this hurts. I need my blowpipe to go to raids, do hydra to get my claw etc.
I was using the rune crossbow with ruby bolts at hydra until now and my kill counts were 4-5 mins. Now i have blowpipe and my kills are 2-3 min range. This will increase the length of my hydra grind significantly....
I really dont understand why youre so adamant about changing the stats of our favorite items when you have still not fixed the botting and gold farming issues!!! Botting and gold farming are destroying this game!!!
