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 see few good ideas jagex should consider these too :)

The quest cape has two polls at once too

just ask : 1.you want the cbow
2. you want the spec

Two things, first we already voted on the cbow itself, so I'm not sure I'd be happy to see it back. Second the quest cape are unrelated, one can pass without the other.

All these are great and I'm really excited for everything that is being polled, especially the crystal items. That being said, I remember years ago seeing something about a 'crystal halberd' from Ilfeen in one of the quests. Maybe that is something that could be introduced? Or maybe I just have to wait for it to come about in RS3, haha :)

Do you remember why you released OSRS? So players like me can enjoy nostalgic memories playing the OLD runescape. How am i to do this if you keep persisting about adding NEW content to an OLD SCHOOL game.
If we thought the game would keep running happily for years without us needing to do any dev work, that'd be mighty convenient and cheap. However, while there are those who don't want new content, there are also a lot of players - all over these forums - who keep asking for more new things. That's why we let the community as a whole vote on whether the new content should be added. I can understand players wanting new things but i thought thats what RS3 was for. I just feel like i keep spending time on a game i enjoy and then it gets updated to the point where its no longer fun to me because of unbalance. And since my old school character is now an RS3, my work for all my combat/slayer was robbed. I just feel likte thats happening again. Maybe you guys could do some elaborate thing to keep both sides happy (which i would greatly apreciate)
1. After GWD is released, your account becomes 2 seperate copies, for 2 versions.
2. Version 1 is the game right now after GWD is released
3. Version 2 is the game right now after GWD is released AND it will continually be updated upon request of players on forums.
4. Doing anything on one version will not affect the other. The logins for these will be like RS3/OSRS logins seperate page same email and pass.
5. Your accounts stats from the game would be left off on both versions so you can decide which one you like.

This would make it so the game that stops getting updated holds up to the name "Old School RuneScape", and the other can be called "Old School Advanced" or something. This in my opinion seems like it would really cater to both crowds and keep your long term veterans happy. Tell me your thoughts on this please.

The quest cape's two polls are independent of each other; either one can be implemented without the other.

There are some players who get antsy about voting on an item if they don't know up front every detail about it. Thus they might vote No to Q1 just in case Q2 doesn't come out the way they want it. It's probably not a massive issue, but where feasible I still prefer to give a clear-cut question so that people know what they'll get when they vote.

isn't it the same with sol now?
if i voted for sol, but i didnt want the 15% damage boost and the damage boost will come i voted wrong too, so its the same as with acb now 1. German Trimmed Comp Cape Pre EOC
1. German Maxed OSRS Account

Very disappointed in the choice of colour trim for the qp cape, this was one thing I was looking forward to but the red just looks so wrong... I think I will be sticking to my firecape if it passes with these selection of colours. Many other players as well as myself have asked if there could be a black trim or a dark blue I would prefer to see the trim in those colours myself.

Or have an interface with various colours to choose from like the clothes shop, so people can choose thier own colour trim.

As some people have mentioned:

Regarding the potion ingredients and the potions itself, i believe it would be better to make them untradeable so people with high herblore have benefit as this was the case with extremes and overloads in RS3.

Also it might be a good idea to state in the poll question that these potions will be used outside of the NMZ as I thought it was misleading due to no mention of this.
