I think the armadyl crossbow spec is OP. once everyone has one at armadyl it would be too easy since you could ruby spec at the start and each person would hit 50 if timed well. this would crash the armadyl items since every few kills you could get a nearly instant kill so I think the spec should be different.

edit: this could also be OP for pking since you could d bolt spec when you want. this may not be a problem though because the d bow is already a very good spec weapon

a few ideas for the spec (% and hits can be changed):

-the spec would be a normal hit but it would heal hp and prayer by 10% of the hit (similar to sgs) (75% spec)
-fires the next 2 bolts 50% faster and the bolts hit 10% more than normal (100% spec)
-the next bolt fired (if it hits) will be 10% stronger and hit another 25% of the hit over the next 5 seconds (60% spec)

i'm thrilled the crystal equipment buff finally gets a poll question but i'm dissapointed it would only be temporary
2500 shots doesnt last very long for any kind of pvm (which i'm assuming most people would use the bow for since its only as strong as mith bolts) and it would be a pain to have to wander through the elven forest and play a bunch of nightmare zone in yanille just to recharge it. could we possibly have an option to permanently imbue crystal equipment and just have it cost a ton of nightmare points or something?

This worries me also. My question is how much it would cost to imbue a 10/10 bow... It's gonna be kinda lame if that requires like 2-3 hours worth of points for every 2500 shots...

mod ash

its possible to split the arma crossbow poll in two polls???
i think many ppl will vote againt the arma bow because of the spec, including me
I loved the idea of a new bow but the spec is so overpowerd.
a 100% 50hit in melee gear at a gwd boss (6men teams can 1hit the bosses without taking damage, GREAT IDEA!!)
please ask :

Question 1:
Question: A new level 70 crossbow will be released with a range attack bonus of +100 and a prayer bonus of +1. Its attack distance will be +1 greater than the runite crossbow, and it will have the same attack rate

Question 2:
Should we also add a special attack? Its special attack would be to guarantee that enchanted bolts would perform their special action in your next shot. This would drain 100% of your special attack energy. The crossbow would be an Armadyl item, but would be dropped by the Saradomin boss in the GWD because she stole it.

Arma cbow will never pass with this spec :(

I like this a lot!!

here are some interesting ideas, for the new staff!

(ive been spitting out the 07 database for monsters and found some interesting npcs with mage-ish weaponry!!! Hope it helps!)

First off:

The water elemental : http://puu***/4qh4K.png

this one migh be rather weird, but it can still work out pretty cool too!

the model of a jogre, And call it a Demon root or something? idk :P

Jogre : http://puu***/4qh9F.png

This one is really cool in my oppinion! its the sceptre of arzinian!

Arzinian avatar of magic: http://puu***/4qheN.png

this next one isnt really a magic weapon either, but maybe with the right collouring it could work out pretty nice!

Vyrewatch: http://puu***/4qhi8.png

there are prolly a ton of other npc's i missed, but these are the ones i found from a database,

What also could be a very cool option, just like with the dragonboots -
is to let the zamorak boss drop something that can be added upon the Toktz-mej-tal
(obsidian staff) to upgrade it to a 1 handed staff???

i hope these ideas help!!! :D gl on creating it guys!
