the time it'd take to abuse this wouldn't be worth it, and I think they should probably add something to have a greatly reduced chance of getting someone whos on your friends list as a target, obviously itd be easy for people to just delete eachother but its adding slightly more effort to abusing it

Yes, I never said it would be worth it to abuse it, just that it was possible. I personally believe that if they make it so you can only upgrade one emblem per kill, and receiving a target takes something like 20 minutes, the system would work just as desired, a small incentive for actually killing your target, nothing more, nothing less.

If you do it long enough, the extra rewards would be things slightly useful to the pkers, but nothing all that needed (look at my reward suggestions for examples). Offering new items that you basically need to be effective in PvM or PvP is a huge no, and should not even be considered. The rewards need to be things that can make a player's life easier, but are not necessary to compete in the highest levels of PvM or PvP.

That is what this system should aim to accomplish in my opinion.

Also for the reward shop itself please don't make it stupid and add a random guy in edgeville bank. Make it feel more like an actual rs update. Add a new house in edgeville or something creative to accommodate the shop. Maybe a basement somewhere. Little things like this will make the game feel less like runescape private servers not run by jagex.

Please add an upgrade to the retribution prayer, just on this prayer. The prayer doesn't hit enough in my opinion. This is needed for my form of killing players. Suicide bombing. Would love to use my points for this upgrade. Nothing overpowered, just bringing up a prayer that has no value in pking because smite is obviously a better bet. Can't wait!

@Mod Reach
Everything you post makes me wonder how you are a Jagex employee, and one of the few responsible for OS. You seem to have a lack of understanding how the community works and almost ZERO knowledge of the game's past. I mean you asked one guy what "EP" was......

As for D-Claws, why are YOU so against them? AGS didn't receive a nerf and, while D-Claws were my favorite weapon, was and has always been more over-powered than D-Claws. AGS only needs 1 spec to kill, while Claws became rather underwhelming when left with just just 1 spec. AGS is a strong main weapon (not-including spec) and Claws are absolutely useless, making AGS far superior in PVMing content. Also, it is very hard to teleport or pray against an AGS spec as good pkers have become sneaky when pulling out the AGS, while teleporting or praying against Claws (or even using a phoenix necklace) was easy as most of the time it took 2 specs to kill someone. I also find AGS to be much more consistent and more accurate than D-Claws, as Claws were so proned to the old dreaded 1-0 spec. (I don't even know if you know what I'm talking about with your lack of knowledge.)

Lastly, Nobody really gives a flying **** about what you, Mod Reach, wants. I thought the philosophy behind old school was what the players wanted. So how about you open a poll asking if the community wanted UN-NERFED D-Claws. If voted down, then that's it, end of discussion. If the vote passes, then bring out the claws instead of some-sort of stupid cosmetic reward or what-ever you are cooking up over at Jagex. Of course finding a way to add D-Claws in the game is a whole different task and different poll, but stop dicking us around and just put it on the next poll: "Do you want un-nerfed Dragon Claws to be added to Old School Runescape through a future voted upon reward or monster drop?"

Dclaws never made sense, a 60 attack weapon that hit so accurately, and so quickly, so low levels could unleash huge amount of damage in no time. A much higher attack level for claws would be alright. And stop attacking reach when he jsut wants to make the game better for all of us

Yeah d claws would definitely get a no from me. Claws are way too accurate, especially for a lv60 weapon and on top of that hits as hard as a godsword but faster.

Pures and mains, and were a much wanted weapon. it also required to defeat a lvl 450 + monster to get a slim chance to get them. So they deserve their power. Ps, dds had 4 specs and could hit 40-40. Despite their lack of accuracy, dragon weapons have that type of power. "Who are you really? deep... deep down... far far in...
