Looks good but its not gonna be that active if you dont remove the stupid pvp worlds

This is something we're investigating. I'm not suggesting we're going to remove them, we're just paying very close attention to the behaviour and traffic between PvP worlds and the Wilderness. -----

Everyone is complaining about no EP systems and wanting new weapons/armour for Pvp. No there should not be Dclaws in the game or Vestas, etc. Those items are to overpowered, which is what people do not want. Stop asking for updates that everyone did not want in the game since OSRS came out. Mod Reach is trying to prevent these updates, because he knows that they will have many negative feedback. Keep up the good work.

As for the shops: I know you said no cosmetics, but like someone mentioned before, maybe a cape that displays your kills/kill ratio based on a unique color/design. This being just one of the rewards, possibly a cheaper one so everyone may have one, or a top item so it is hard to get? As far as rewards, maybe make some of them only usable in the wilderness, like the concept for nightmare zone(not the potions but maybe something different). It is hard to decide because everything will affect the game, i hope you make the right decision.

without these strong items your just perpetuating the notion of luck in runescape. '* ok ill just dds spec' boom 40 40 i mean u need higher lvl content otherwise the game gets boring. i see som1 2 spec with d claws ill want to get d claws myself. they wernt invincible at all people were antirushing korasis/d claws since they came out.

You're right, we do need higher level and to progressively increase the effectiveness of weapons and armours. This needs to be done slowly as to secure a future for further upgrades.

If we release all of the best weapons that can one hit you in one special attack right now, what will we release next year that is equally as good or better? There won't be anything.
I dont agree with this. We don't need to keep getting stronger weapons and armour. We don't need a gear grind. Expanding the variety of the top tier weapons is great, to get many weapons that could have the best stab or crush or slash attack bonus, with different attack speeds.

So that the current best gear (whip/dbow/barrows gear) will always be viable (but not the best in all situations). I hate OP weapon updates like how the staff of the dead devaluated the master wand and ancient staff. People watch olschool runescape PK videos and don't recognize the game anymore due to new items. If you want to have a staff with slightly less magic attack bonus that has a chance on saving runes, fine. But don't make it 15% more powerful than all the other weapons (oh and make it as good as a whip aswell, while it's not even a melee weapon!?). If you make such OP stuff you force everybody to use it in order to compete, this game will end up just as bad as pre eoc with korasi and other junk that totally ruin the combat triangle.

I agree completely. The SOD was a really bad move and we do need more variety in weapons before we get new weapons (Saradomin shortsword is one that I'd really like to see).

I'm a total noob at combat and am always petrified when entering the wilderness, and as a result try to avoid it entirely.

This might go against what some of the others want, but I would like some safe havens or bolt holes that make me feel a bit safe. Perhaps some of the reward shop items could incorporate safe-room keys (possibly cheap, 1 time use items), or 'dissimulators' (black out the opponents screen for a couple of seconds), to help escape the pvpers.

Little things that don't make it impossible for pkers to catch you, but make me feel a bit safer entering there.
