Why doesn't the Graceful outfit have a set effect? I understand not wanting to devalue Spottier Cape, Boots of Lightness and Penance Gloves, but why not have a set effect to make up for this? That way the Graceful Cape, Boots, and Gloves have a use for players who don't care about how they look and already have the existing Weight Reduction gear.

Also, will the Graceful outfit be going into our PoH's?

What sort of set effect would you like it to have?

2x run restore rate

I think instead of a set effect, you should rework weight reductions. Making negative weight have an effect on the drain rate or run energy. Currently at the moment, anything under 0 (negative) does not make your run drain any slower/less.

Perhaps, you could add a set effect where run is drained slightly slower, and the amount based on the players agility level. This assures that each player is reward on the effort he puts in (levels) and the set effect is not outrageously overpowered.

Personally I don't think the graceful set needs boots/gloves/cape because you can already get weight reducing gear in those slots.

The xp rates look good to me also.

Can't wait for the update, actually looking forward to training agility... what is this madness? ;)

Run energy restores 50% faster

50-200%? that's crazy. You are reaching to high. Put yourself in the shoes of a content developer, you want things to be balanced and not overpowered to where it will ruin the game. That effect is far too much, and puts many others at a disadvantage. You want something helpful, but not game breaking.

I really like current state of project but you missed skullball course.
Can you please add it the spreadsheet? "We don't want players to be able to buy their way to success in RuneScape. If we let players start doing this, it devalues RuneScape for others. We feel your status in real-life shouldn't affect your ability to be successful in RuneScape."

So you reply to me instead of the guy that suggested it to restore 200% faster? LOL

Also I do not think that is overpowered or too much at all, but hey you are allowed your opinion. Keep in mind they think it will take about 60 hours to get the full set. Now rethink your comment.

I was definitely worried that the new proposed experience rates would be too high. I'm still a little sour that there will be no requirements needed while the other courses will have requirements. However, I feel that your intentions, which was to provide alternative ways to train without making the skill too easy is met with these. I feel that these are acceptable experience rates and hope they are not further increased.

We missed off several ways to train agility (skull ball, werewolf course, agility pyramid) and focused on the main methods of training. We wanted to keep it simple and focused so we could make sure we got it right.

I was going to reply to him as well, but then as i reloaded the page, your suggestion was there too. I figured it best to reply to the most recent one, as it caters to the both of you as well. I thought the other person would read it and see it applies to them, as both of you have the same concept. I suppose in hindsight it wasn't the most efficient way of responding. I will edit my other post to include the other person as well. My apologies.
