Why are all these rewards combat oriented? I have to complete Nightmare Zone to gather materials for Herblore? Nightmare Zone for this, that, and everything? Why does Nightmare Zone have to be the center of all these updates?


you don't have to participate to gather any materials you can still collect them the old fashioned way, also the rewards currently for the NMZ are rather sparse to say the least having many of these added will benefit the minigame dramatically so people will actually play it.

Question: Nightmare Zone's reward shop could sell an ingredient that upgrades an anti-fire potion to a super anti-fire potion, requiring level 89 Herblore. The super anti-fire potion would block all dragonfire damage, and would also reduce the effects of the KBD's other attacks. Level 93 would be needed to add caviar.

Question: Nightmare Zone's reward shop could sell an ingredient that upgrades a super energy potion to an energy renewal potion, requiring level 92 Herblore. The energy renewal potion would restore all your run energy, and keep it topped up for 30 seconds. Level 96 would be needed to add caviar.

Question: Nightmare Zone's reward shop could sell an ingredient that upgrades a prayer potion to a super prayer potion, requiring level 94 Herblore. The super prayer potion would increase your Prayer by 4 points more than the existing prayer potion does, and could boost your Prayer stat above its base level to do this. Level 98 would be needed to add caviar.


From what I understand the only way to access these 'cool new potions' is to do Nightmare Zone, no? I have to level my combat to access Herblore content? If this is the case these new potions are getting a big fat no from me and it disappoints me because I would like to have access to these potions.

I can understand unicorn horns, herbs, etc as I can gather them outside of the minigame.

I'm a little disapointed that no one's upset about you just giving away the rare items people have sought for, for a long time. I agree to giving out the tradeable rares again, but at a random colour, and only one. I see old school going far, but not far enough for these items to become rare again. I would like to hear your opinions.

Edit: Rephrased my last sentence.

@Laplacier

Just above the questions for the potions it says:

'In each case, the ingredient and the potion would be tradeable.'


Okay, admittedly I missed that and that is a little better than what I was previously envisioning. I would still rather be able to gather them myself without the need for a combat-oriented minigame.

don't you already have an armadyl staff in the game? you know the one lucien wants you to get? Why not find a way to make that work... and if your gonna call the new crossbow armadyl crossbow, why not call the staff, staff of light? and seriously wth it gets 72% vote yes and you're still giving it another chance, thats just dumb imo, especially now that it's even MORE overpowered with that special attack.

Why would people be against the H'ween Event? Like it's just an event to help players get the tradeable and untradeable holiday items. People will be upset that the 'rares' won't be 'rares' anymore but it gives all the people who never had the chance to get 'rares' in the main game a chance to actually own them. It will also reduce the chances of people being scammed for the 'rares'. I think the 'rares' should only be given out in their respective holidays once so the price of the rares will have a chance to rise again and not crumble to become worth nothing. I also understand that adding a black h'ween mask can be a big deal, but it shouldn't be because it's gonna be untradeable. If the event fails to get the votes, I'm gonna be extremely disappointed in the community.
