NO to everything, why should people be rewarded for make-believe PVP??? Make Slayer rewards better, and reward other skills too!

I find it funny that when it comes to this type of content, the voices that were dissing any new skill are begging skillers etc to vote yes and calling for the 75% rule to be lowered - same voices and votes that denied Artisan...

As a player for over 10 years that has never been interested in PvP, this update is very disappointing to me. PvP has always been optional, but this changes that. Sure, I can play without the items from this game, but as rs is all about efficiency it would be stupid to do so. Being forced to play PvP (especially the horrible thing that is BH) is incredibly frustrating. It's sad to say that this is the update that finally is making me debate whether this game is worth my time.

I think most of those rewards are good and quite useful, but introducing the dragon defender in a reward shop for pvp doesn't fit, i am wondering why that "amulet of smite" doesn't pass ( looks like it atm with 8300 votes - only has 68% for yes) and if you add "saradomins tear" i suggest you to make that affect pvp only... means that you need to hit 10.000 times inside wilderness, and that would mean, that you cant break it outside wilderness, just an advise from me ;)

All the best,

Tobi

You dont have to Pvp dude. AS A TON OF PEOPLE HAVE SAID EMBLEMS THAT ARE SPENT IN THE SHOP ARE TRADEABLE SO YOU CAN BUY THE EMBLEMS FROM OTHER PEOPLE TO GET STUFF OUT OF SHOP

I like most of the rewards, however, I'm not much in favor of having to either pay money, or kill people in the wild to get a dragon defender. Every other reward has uses that primarily will be used in pvp, while the dragon defender will easily become the best off hand weapon for pvm.

So true, I agree 100%.

After artisan didn't pass, I just don't have any incentive to vote yes on bounty hunter. I don't have any incentive to vote period on pvp/pvm content.

I didn't vote at all. Apathy ftw! I might have been in a better mood if a new skill passed.


STR LEVELS, MAX HIT BRAH? MEET ME IN WILDY NOOB.



Bring out a new NON-COMBAT skill, and then repoll bounty hunter. I might vote yes then (or vote period). Till then, idgaf. I'll bet 76ker types are unhappy. TOO FREAKING BAD! :p

lol at those voting no "cuz we didn't get skiller updates".
voted yes for almost every update, might abstain from voting on any skilling related updates seeing the responses here.
Quite sad how the one item I was looking forward to (ring of influence) is probably not happening and the lack of magic buffs is appalling.

Considering my thread in general was hidden for no reason (other threads pertaining to BH were simply locked and OP was redirected here) I will do my best to recreate my points, assuming that I did no wrong and that was simply a product of poor moderation.

-Saradomin's tear - Item sinks should be made widely available, and not be produced from PKing
-Dragon Spike - If the dragon defender is introduced, it should come from the mini game reward shop
-Clue boxes - Better off as clue rewards, since that is what they relate to
-Amulet of Smiting - Because being stunlock smited by clans with spears isn't bad enough already (no support on this item at all)
-Ring of Wealth (i) - Support on this idea for BH shop, but not x2 chance
-MSB (i) - Would support if it was degradable, making an item sink
-Dark vessels & souls - "The wilderness is suppose to be dangerous" -almost every PKer ever
-Ring of Influence - Support, nothing I would change
-Cosmetics - Support
-Teleport Controller - I don't think the random aspect should be removable
-Ancients teleport Tabs - Support, but not through a BH shop, they should just be created the same as normal tabs.
-Target Enrage - Support
-Looting Bag - Support
-Rune Pouch - Already failed a poll once, if it was to be added, I'd want to see a way for PvMers to acquire it as well

Over all, I don't want to see a way for PKing to just generate items, I'd be much more supportive of a system where people put money into a coffer, and that is paid out to victors in bounties instead of just drops which buy items.
