Ive said this before countless of times, and I'll say it again.

This will unfortunately not pass a poll. Hardly anything original or controversial ever will. Instead of having the 'no' vote be three TIMES as power as the 'yes' vote, make the 'no' vote only x2 as powerful. Meaning change the '%' needed to pass to :66%.

If this doesn't pass because of lower leveled players I am honestly just going to quit, I barley log in anymore due to boredom. I assure you, I won't be the only high leveled player who quits as well. Having the majority of players who want an update quit due to boredom to support the minority will not be good for this game in the long run.


I strongly agree with this. Corp is something that a lot of players will love, however the 75% vote might be an issue. A lot of players will just vote "no" just because they do not want more huge improvments into the game. Most of these people will not even be affected by corp since it is very high lvl content. Updates like this need to pass to increase the longevity of the game and bring some life to the pvm community. NO being twice as powerful in the voting is just insane.

I also agree that the way things are voted in for certain things should be changed. Someone who is level 3 should not impact something they can't do for a year. It's honestly dumb. Just like people with low skilling stats shouldn't be allowed to vote for certain skill updates.

On another note - I think I have a
solution for the scamming
. Let's say you're in corp - you can't tele out because you just received a Divine Sigil (if no sigil in inventory - may tele freely) instead you will have to leave the corp room - going to another room before you can leave - then your whole team is in this waiting area - and the person holding the sigil cannot leave unless the team clicks accept on a pop up screen that will be sent when he tries to leave. This way this safe holding zone would be a viable spot to do the trade. So they could post the offer for 20m for the divine sigil and someone comes to buy it. (20m is just an example don't get butthurt).

After the trade is made the person cannot leave still - this way he has to split before he can leave. Once everyone has there split they can click accept and then the holder can leave.

Kind of just something that popped in my head - real rough sketch of it - but it works to be honest. that's not scamming though.. scamming and distrust is 2 different things on the game and your method would lead to more ways to just confusion and distress and make the community think and absolutely have more distrust in the game which would be unhealthy and worse for the game then it already is..

Devs and other people wanted a way to combat scamming. Yes scamming because someone running off with your split would be a scam. People wanted a solution I threw one out. Dun't hate m8.

As a player from actual 2007 I really want to see this come into game with the original spirit shields, with or without the divine nerf. (was against nerf in the beginning but it doesn't sound too bad now)

If corp is released without ANY of the four shields I will quit this game for good now. Oldschool needs updates like this...

EDIT: As Fierce Tank said above decreasing the vote from 75% to 66% would be fair for this update... The lower levels that think they will never own one of these shields are most likely going to vote no on this..
OR Please make it so you can only vote if you have a fair amount of game time played.
lowering it to 66% just for one update would actually be unfair to the community.

This is a trust issue it has nothing to do with scamming and if you are actually friends with these type of people then why do you have them added in the first place.. delete them and find a friend you trust. it does nothing to benefit the community and causes people to be more distressed and unhappy which is not something we want to promote or want on a game as the numbers are already so bad on this game the way it is..

it's scamming if everyone agrees to share the drop before and then changes their mind when they receive the drop.

This is a response to the dude that's been quoting me. I'm not going to throw a mess up in the forums with the quote feature not working.

You've never been scammed by someone you trust? Man you're in for a world of hurt. And I really don't care if you agree/disagree with my idea. I'm not looking for approval I was just throwing it out there. So dun't h8 m8.

With that much power packed into an essentially low leveled equipment scares me...I really want to see some ORIGINAL content introduced as far as combat rewards go. I am very sad to see returning "successful" content rather than original content created by the devs. I like corp, corp should be introduced. But why are the same shields, which we know what we're getting, being released? I don't get it. I'd rather see something that surprises me. This is boring, corp isn't going to surprise anybody or make anyone say "wow, that was really cool and unexpected."


Two defensive shields (ely and div), why not make the other two shields more offensive? 70% chance to increase damage by x% or 100% chance to increase damage by x% at a cost of 50% prayer points per damge hit? IDK ideas. ^_^

As for extremely high level bosses, I wouldnt care if everyone got a drop if they deal a certain amount of damage to corp. That'd fix loot share, everyone has a chance at the drops. Say if you deal at least 1/5th damage to the corp, you get a roll for a drop. :)

i don't like the shields to be back , they over powered and will make every single items in
GWD crash
and worthless to chase and also so many ppl don't like FFA in corp , how come is it fair to stay forever then someone snipe the sigil from you , tbh i will not be happy to see this thing happening , so you can make something exclusive for corp for ppl who wants to
share the drops
cause no one would
trust someone to give splits
in items so expensive like SIGILS!!

Spirit shields won't make GWD items crash. These items would promote solo/duo PvM which is substantially less kills/hour than trio. Zam/bandos tanks wouldn't really get that much of an advantage in terms of kills/hour. The advantage would be longer trips but with such quick kill count it doesn't make a big difference overall. By the way, these shields will be expensive. Not everyone is going to have one and be using it to "crash" GWD items.

The biggest effect that the shield would have on god wars is Armadyl. As for now, having an aviansie slayer task is the limiting factor for best kills/hour. Meaning on task without a spirit shield will be better than off task without spirit shield. You will be limited to your task amount and how often you can get that task. Task is a big difference, bigger than spirit shields yet I haven't seen the community complain that aviansie tasks are the reason Armadyl items are dropping in price.

I'd also like to point out that high level players like me will be at corporeal beast camping that instead of at god wars after the release of corp. This means less GWD items coming into the game.
