Disappointed about Dragon Defender needing a PVP element for it's existence, to have to either Pk or Pay for something that should be inherently free is prosperous. It just sounds like a lazy way to add benefits to BH whilst shutting people up who are asking for a dragon defender.

I can really see this BH being abused for money, am curious as to how long it will take the team to fix any bug abuse considering how long it took them to fix the bug in nmz that allowed people to make millions semi afking magic defence and hp at a stupidly fast speed.

Jagex. Thank you. You've clearly been reading all the posts of the players. I emphasized that upgrading existing items would increase their value and make them more useful. This is what I saw many more people post. It's exactly what you did :D

+1 Agreed.

Feel free to suggest any ideas you have. We are more than open to adding more to the rewards shop.

Well, since the current rewards are severely lacking in mage content:

Vile Orb: Can be combined with any non imbued mage weapon. Increases the poison damage of smoke spells.

Obby Staff (I): Enhances mage attk bonus and grants the chance of a second hit with any spell cast. This second hit will do 1/4th of the damage as the first. This would give some use to the obby staff and it would be balanced for the following reasons:

-Would still be 2h
-Unlike SoT*, it would not have a 15% damage boost making the extra damage less consistent and less reliable

Splitbark (I): Increases mage attack. Mystic would still have a higher attack bonus.

Enchanted (I): Provides a small prayer bonus.

I like that idea, honestly don't see anyone using smoke spells. It's usually just ice blitz and barrage, however very rarely people might use smoke spells for mage boxing.

i think all the rewards should be untradable. As a zerker, some of the best item slots I can get are from quests,minigames etc etc. Without having to pay masses of money I mean. This update is solely to bring more people into the wilderness back into it's hype as it was in 2007. If pvmers did want a dragon defender, go gain the points from it in pvp like you would from barbarian assault for a torso, or pest control for void. If you don't then use a rune defender like you have been for the past year and a bit. As for skillers, they just got a massive update in the wilderness r*juv, check the hunter xp gains since it came out.

As I said, make a poll to make items untradeable as to take away their "street value" and let people decide if they want to pk or not. Not who has the most cash can just buy it from other people.

Disagreed 100%. Dragon defender should not be coming from PVP in the first place, too.

It's not, just indirectly.

Dragon defender will become a contender with dragonfire shield's strength bonus so it should have some value instead of simply being free.

I agree I don't want a dragon defender at all, but things like clue boxes to stop you from losing your clue scroll in the wilderness, I feel if it helps you in the wilderness then it should come from the wilderness. Remember it's not meant to be a safe place, you're meant to be scared and nervous when you go in, so it shouldn't be about the size of your bank, but about how much you're prepared to go through to get the things you want.

Of course, since that actually makes sense.

Dragon Defender on the other hand is the best offensive item in shield shot, used by pretty much every PVMer in game, it should not come from PVP if they decide to implement it.

I'd rather have no dragon defender than get it in game this way.

The defender change, changes nothing. At all.

Seriously, defender shouldn't be buyable from a pvp store whatsoever.

You're stupid. You have to buy the Dragon Spike from the BH store and then gain access to the new berserk cyclops at the warriors guild. If anything, this version of dragon defenders are harder and more expensive to obtain than ever.

Quit complaining about absolutely every thing and maybe we'd see some progression to this game. It's a defender with like +1 strength bonus over the Rune counterpart, shut up.
