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
Actually you're wrong about bar prices keeping adamant bolt prices stable, it is just the opposite of what you state, bar prices are determined by the highest valued item you can make from them, and for adamant bars that would be adamant bolts.
Cheap and easy to get broad bolts WILL drop demand for adamant bolts and both bolt and bar prices drop just as they did when broad bolts came into the game in 2008 and they will do it again if they come into this version of the game.
And when addy bolts crash so will mith bolts, why pay 160 to 180 for mith when you will be able to get adamant for nearly the same price?
Smithing once again fades from an honorable and profitable profesion and becomes an expensive hobby for wealthy players.
There are only two slayer beasts that need broad bolts, count them, two.
Why devalue the smithing skill so wannabe rangers can have cheap training ammo with adamant strength.
I bet runecrafters would be just as upset if 55 slayer let you buy natures, laws or deaths for 90 gp so you have cheap mage levels.

God War pets? I really hope that one passes the poll.
I'm extremely impressed with how much the OSRS team is doing, given the small staff and limited resources. All of these sound like potential amazing content for the game. Way to go OSRS Dev team.

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?
thank you that sounds better then just free random xp handouts for time trial slayer im glad for your feedback and concern from me and others that disagreed with the free xp boosts and instead replaced the xp with xtra slayer points.. much better thank you
