Awww.. In fact I was looking for the quest the most.
I hope there are some quests in plans for OSRS. :|


I hope so, some of the best projects I have worked on have been quests. I look forward to the possibility of there being more :)

Woohoo ! Hopefully you don't forget us :)

So based upon feedback, it seems there is a mutual agreement that not getting two of every partyhat alongside two of all the other tradeable Christmas items is not the prefered idea.

So instead, we've gone back to the original drawing board plan and are ofeering two of every partyhat, an untradeable rainbow partyhat AND an untradeable Black partyhat. We'll throw the rainbow one in for good measure but you will not need to cut up any partyhats to make it and neither will it retain any street value, it'll just become another untradeable vanity 'rare'.

We've also looked at some of the slayer feedback and there's been some concern over the introduction of additional XP when completing a task quickly through time trial slayer. Instead, we'll go down the route of offering additional points and leave the XP rates exactly as they are.

We've also taken extra feedback on board and are adding the slayer gem to the slayer mask allowing you to right click the helmet to see how many kills you have left giving the helm the same options as the gem. This will be inclusive when building the helmet.

How does that sound?


Souns ok to me guys, thanks for that.

I'd really like these slayer rings to be easy to get, and have the same teleports as they do in RS3. Having to get 57 herblore and 49 farming for fairy tale part 2 just for teleports close to slayer areas is very annoying, that rellika slayer dungeon is a 5 minute walk from seers, so annoying. :P


Errr...

I still can't PvM with Magic.......


Reach pls I'm sick of Melee-dominant Slayer and Bossing, I wanna use some Magic at GWD and on Slayer tasks.

pls.


Isn't that the reason they made EoC? I've always hated people saying stuff like go play eoc if you don't like it, But I guess that actually fits in extremely well here lol.


I see nothing wrong with monsters that can only be killed with a specific combat style, EOC did improve monsters to have more variety but they went a bit too far. EOC also butchered the combat system from all aspects.

When speaking of combat triangle balance, it doesn't mean all three styles have to all hit the same damage. Corporal beast was a good idea, in terms of only spears doing full damage when it came to meleeing the boss. A boss-monster on OSRS would be nice if it was favorably kill-able with the magic skill, ice strykewyrms were a perfect example and we didn't need EOC to make magic useful.

Disappointed that you guys are giving two of every phat. Two crackers should be plenty. The partyhats should not all be the same rarity. It should be based on the rates of the cracker. You guys REALLY need to repoll rares. The decisions you are making on them are just stupid. I was really looking forward to a tradable rainbow partyhat.

Also, make the baby god wars bosses tradable in their egg form. once you choose to hatch them, they will no longer be tradeable. i want to use them but cba killing 5k of every boss to get one. so basically i'm voting no unless you guys can be fair and let the content be available to everyone.

Very amazing feedback from all aspects! I'm excited to see that we will receiver two of each partyhat and won't have to worry about obtaining each one. I think this was a great update and I'm glad you've decided to make this change.

Cool update for the Slayer Mask, makes me a little bit more excited for its release.

A couple things I would like to say:

I would honestly prefer not having to use a TON of NZ points just to get the 15% bonus to magic and range for the black mask/slayer helmet.. I'm not exactly able to get a lot of points at my level and would like it if it was possible to make it more readily available like the hexcrest, for example.

In addition, for broad bolts, I would like them to be released exactly the way they were in the old game. Affordable, powerful and practical. These bolts were perfect for the vast majority of the community and range was a much more enjoyable skill to level. People complain that adamant bolts would lose their value, but honestly, they will keep their exact values. Why? Bolt prices are essentially influenced by the cost of making them (in this case its addy bars). It's not like bars are getting any cheaper. They still have a critical use in bossing (diamond/ruby (e) bolts).
I remember in the old game that adamant bolt prices did not change in the slightest.

I didn't see a question for the poll asking for the option to fletch broad bolts. How come this isn't in there? It would be great to have.

Thanks

I was actually thinking the same thing. I liked the original plan for the Christmas event.
I'm not growing up, I'm just burning out.
