also too add on, the normal requirements for these fish without hand fishing. it could be that you add a new shark that is the same or a little better than sharks. you could add a sand shark that is on the beach of the island. Than you could add a tiger shark that is ether around the island or on a boat ect.... the 99 fishing fish however should be a normal whale. this would add a very cool aspect to the game. This would add a master fish to the game Instead of just fishing the same fish that you could fish at a lower level. it could even be a lvl 90 fish or 95. just adding a very high level fish would be very cool to me. all of this is subject to poll, but I love this idea and would love feedback and even more ideas of fish. thanks

also to add to this is the way we can fish these fish. The new shark could be fished with ether a special type of harpoon or a regular harpoon. also there should be an ability to hand fish this fish. The whale could be ether caught with a huge net or another special type of catching. maybe like a double harpoon or something special. thanks feedback is appreciated

the second idea I have is to add some new amazing things to hunt. first i suggest adding elephants. This would require a high level of maybe 80, 85 or 90 hunter to catch. next is my favorite animal which is a sugar glider. this could be a lower level to catch but would also be a cooler new thing unique to the island. another new hunter animal could be a monkey or spider monkey's or my favorite monkey the patas monkey. now another cool thing I think should be added for skillers and non boss people is the very rare chance or ability to get one of the hunter animals as a pet. This is one of my favorite ideas so please give this a chance at a poll and thanks you so much for reading much love

Hey Mod Reach. I've been thinking about new content ideas for a while now, and I think we need more level-70 tier weapons/armor. Chaotic weps were too powerful, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't have access to more whip-level weapons. The biggest issue I see with providing more content to Old School Runescape, though, is keeping it within the vision of Old School. We don't like how cluttered the main version of the game feels--there is just too much going on; too much to take in. Keep churning out good content!

A lot of interesting ideas there.

I could add a few...

Pixie village, a small town inhabitated by fairy folk who were kicked out of Zanaris by the Fairy Godfather. Rosie the pixie overseer and the rest of Diango's pixies from the old holiday events (Sorcha, Cait, Cormac, Donna*ha, Fionn, and Ronan) could live there when they're not making toys in Diango's workshop. As would a number of their friends, giving the excuse for a whole bunch of new characters to be introduced. There could be some eccentric pixie, fairy, and leprechaun shopkeekers, as well as places to train magic, farming, and other skills.

Thrander's armory. It turns out Thrander moved here after he retired. See what he's been up to lately.

Imp hill. Just where DO those imps store the stuff they steal, anyway? Maybe here's where we can find out. And here's where we can run into several different kinds of imps, giving an excuse to re-use various different variations of imp graphics. Just to make things interesting, these different types of imps might not always get along and the player might have to get involved in their disputes.

Brynna's Great Outdoor refuge. Sure, Brynna loves her duties as the Survival Expert of Tutorial Island, but, like Vanna*a, teaching the newcomers just isn't enough for her. Being (according to her description) 'Very much an outdoors type', she sometimes travels to this great outdoor refuge to help those training 'outdoorsy' skills like Fishing, Hunting, and Woodcutting, and hosting new mini-games involving those skills.

Morytania Refuge Camp. This camp houses refuges from Morytania. Unfortunately, they have been quarantined by the authorities of the new continent until they can be sure none of the inhabitants are dangerous vampires or werewolves. This would form the basis of a quest set there.

OO YEAH PIXIES! I hope they expand on current RS races that we know little about. I have 0 hopes RS3 will ever do that.

Love the Pixie Village idea above. Especially like the idea of adding a few more leprechauns to the game.

I also thought, could we add some Wise Old Man content to the continent. I know Ash loves developing it and it seems like his "retired adventurer" past might tie in well. Maybe he could be somehow linked to the discovery of the continent? I also thought that maybe (lore permitting) a quest that would show him or even some other character as a Christopher Columbus type. The idea would be that he (or the other character) are hailed as the discoverer of the new continent. Through a quest though, the player discovers a much darker past. He was in fact involved in the accidental murder of several tribes on the island. Basically the player would have to broker peace or something like that and they would help restore the unique history of this "new" landmass.

I'd like to note that these are ideas that just popped into my head. I'm certainly open to ideas/suggestions if anyone has any.
