I can already see plenty of problems with this new system and ways to exploit/abuse it. I am not a player who would do this as i like pking and is really the only reason i play the game, but if at just a 15 minute glance i already see ways to manipulate the system you can bet that others also see this. You say that naturally the exploiting will come out but this would only be after people massively abuse the system and i'm assuming you wouldn't catch half the people who ended up doing this. I like how you are trying to engage more people in pvp. I personally do not feel this is the way to go about this. I hope you get the feedback you are looking for.

Going to vote no.

This system feels way too complicated and private server like. Instead of having the emblems and exchanging them from shop just have them randomly dropped from your target and the chance being effected by targets risk.

Looks great, can't wait to see what will be in the store! Hopefully it will be something rewarding but not to over powered like pvp armor dragon claws etc.

at least someone agrees with me :D

It doesn't make sense to me to allow a weapon with stats like Dragon Claws to come from a store.

I made a strawpoll last night requesting player interest in a reworked Dragon Claws that requires 100% special bar as that is the only way we can justify Claws. The outcome didn't look promising for claws.

I don't understand why you guys are so against fun weapons in runescape? God.. this game is becoming really boring to me the way you guys think. How much fun do you expect people to have useing the dds over and over again?

Dragon claws were fun and were the true reason I was a member on many of my accounts. With out fun powerful things in game, whats the point in playing it? Seriously.

as for comparing pvp with skillers and pvmers, its seriously laughable. Considering they are completing different things and should have nothing to do with one another.

Not everyone shares your views on what is 'fun'. The integrity and longevity of the game is something we must protect and items with accuracy and hit potential such as Dragon Claws are off the scale of items we will consider at this stage of the games life.

PvP'ers and skillers are comparable in many ways. Having such a narrow-minded view of the relationship between the different class of players is one reason some of the content you'd like voted in hasn't been voted in. -----

Wouldn't it be a good idea to give everyone a skull and disable protect item on the Bh world? It would help solve ragging and just overall increase the risk people have to take...and for anyone who wants to use their ags, there's pvp worlds.

Giving everyone a skull and disabling protect item impacts on a lot of existing PK setups/styles which is not something that we are keen on doing. The minimum risk required to get a target or emblems, as well as Bounty Hunter taking place in the wilderness, should lessen the frequency of seeing raggers. @JagexRonan

I'm genuinely curious as to where you can spot loopholes. Both to ensure we haven't missed anything out here and leaving ourselves open to abuse and to satisfy my own interests. -----

Suggestion for the reward shop:
- Teletabs to the ancient teleports that are inside the wilderness. These tabs should be untradeable, and should be pretty cheap. So that if you PK a lot, you can use these tabs to teleport into the wilderness even when you're not on the ancients spellbook.

This suggestion doesn't make things OP, and adds a nice bonus. From the points you get from an emblem your should be able to buy like 10 of them.
