I'll simply be voting no as these rewards in no way look at the PvM community. It's like you're forcing us to pvp to better our weapons, but pvpers can freely buy the items PvMers receive from drops.

The currency to buy from the PvP store is tradeable...

That's terrible, why not add PvM currency to the game so people can trade it and spend it at an upgrade shop too. No? That'd be stupid, no hard work for upgrades.

I'm talking real items, something both PvMers and PvPers can use to benefit them in combat, something with coin value comparable to slayer loot.

In a way currency would be comparable to removing all drops from slayer and making a tradable slayer currency, which you can buy and upgrade all slayer drops. Bad Idea, right?

You guys should re-add the risk requirement to enter. Something like 50-75k minimum.

I'm also concerned about being able to get targets instantly, this tells me you don't plan on making the emblem loot very good per kill, because if it is good(100-200k extra loot minimum) you will have people making a lot of money which it seems you guys are against.

It would be better to have like 30 minute wait in wild risking and get random 100k-5m worth of emblems per tar* kill than get instant targets and get 10-50k worth of emblems(less than the pots you will use for 1 fight).

The rewards sound decent except the saradomin tear**** is much harder to obtain than whips, I think it should last 15k or 20k hits. Even then it is likely to still be underused. It could be good with a good spec. Some ideas are decrease spec to 50% or make the magic based extra damage also tb if it hits. Maxed Sept 24th, 2015 - 134th to max

Seriously, defender shouldn't be buyable from a pvp store whatsoever.
Actually instead of having to buy the spike more than once its a one time payoff for access to the Dragon defender. Former RS3 Completionist, On the road to Max old school

Why not just add a fourth floor to the warriors guild that has level 200 cyclops that have a 1/35 Chance to drop Dragon Defender.

Drop the Saradomin Tear as an Rare drop from Commander Zilyana and her minions.

Clue Boxes have nothing to do with Pvp.

The smite amulet is okay.

The Imbue Ring of wealth should add 1.5x the chance to get a clue not 2x

Magic Shortbow is okay

Dark Vessels-Why not just run away.

Ring of influence is fine.

Cosmetics are fine.

It said it gives you 10 minutes this means you may need to buy multiple. It's still forcing PvMers to PvP.

You'll be able to buy the item from other players.

Saradomin's tear - you cant make give it the same bonus's as whip vine. Kraken is less and 1m and whip is 1.4m its not logical for someone to use the sword when it currently is 3m and obviously going to rise. The special attack should be buffed it currently hits with mage how about a multi mage spell that takes full spec bar and does upto 30 damage to 9 people. (3x3)

Multiple looting bags - this wasn't mentioned it needs to be addressed we should be allowed to have more than one looting bag in the bank but only 1 in our inventorys in the wilderness at a time they are a pain to get back and when you're pking you want to get right back into the fight after you die, without the looting bag youre at significant disadvantages.

Wheres the risk requirements? < without them im just going to keep killing boosi over and over with his crystal bow for emblems

I am also REALLY disappointed that you did not bring an item for pures out with this also you can't just bring out the dragon defender and not give pures something to gnaw on.

All emblems should be trade able though not just lower tiers.

I think we can all agree this isn't what this community was looking for we all expected it to be A LOT more buffed in terms of drops and potential experience gained from the wilderness etc. We wanted everything to revolve around the wilderness I think this is a good start but it will need improvements and definitely more rewards.

Slayer and PvM you are killing monsters, therefore it's RNG drops*
** you are killing other players, therefore a more consistent form of reward is being added. The only way to do that is dropping 'PvP currency' for every target kill that you can then save up and use to buy items from a store.
You're being too critical.

Also I'm primarily a PvMer and I support stuff like this with BH rewards. I'm not forced to PvP at all, I can easily buy the currency from a PKer to buy something I want from the store if I'd like. I'll also have a better environment to try out PvP should I want to experience PvP.
The entire point of this update is to make PvP more appealing like PvM and skilling are in terms of making money so people can experience PvP much better, hopefully, than right now where it's a complete waste of time and effort.
With rewards like this they can also penalize players for playing cheaply like teleporting from fights, rushing/pjing, ragging, etc. and should solve a lot of PvP problems. Everything stated here is forwarded from a major corporation. Nothing here is my opinion. Enjoy your salad.
