Overpowered?? how many times will you see player walking with divine in wildy? It would make PVM easier but only high risk pk divine will be involved. Idk why you dislike corp.
GO CORP

Oh, I would love corp, but not with the elysian and divine spirit shield in this state.

And if you think they won't be used in the Wilderness or PvP worlds, think again.

Agreed, for example, if your max with a whip, fully potted with prayer etc. is 40, against someone with divine it would be 28 (or 30 if changed to 25% damage reduction, a change in 2 damage omg sounds fair), meaning you'd have to get close to max damage each hit to outdo the amount they can eat sharks. A real uphill battle. Also, everyone ought to take into account that those with the shields will be using protect 1 item, and be able to afford many super restores and sara brews to make them practically invincible on a pvp situation.

And then theres the fact that it makes pvm a hell of alot easier when kq can't even hit 30 on you. So yeah all this OP stuff will just hammer another nail into the coffin of these classic, symbolic, oldschool bosses, thus creating a vicious cycle of more demand for new items and bosses, and each big update is getting sooner to the previous because the community of no lifer's aren't sat*fied.

Yes, because I will have my entire clan with divines roaming around in wildy haunting other players...

NOT everyone will have a divine. A very small portion of the community will carry one

I feel I need to say this yet again, because it wasn't seen the first 5 times I posted it, it seems...

The Elysian and Divine aren't overpowered because of their passive effects, it is because their passive effects affect ALL 3 CORNERS of the combat triangle. That is the overpowering aspect of the shields. They genuinely need a morph option/feature of some kind, so they can only affect one at a time, negating how OP they were/will be in PvP. If people can hybrid through the shields, they won't be seen as nearly as broken, but as they are, I feel divine will not pass, even with the nerf, and if ely was broken off too, it probably would not pass either (although ely would probably be close).

Please consider doing something along those lines so the shields aren't best in slot for everything, thanks.

Will be voting yes for both even though i don't do ironman, I may give it a try. As for corp I can't wait but I do have questions regarding it's release, will there be a new quest in order to fight it? Like there was spirit of summer and summer's end but due to the fact there is no summoning.....will you guys just release him as say kalphite queen in which you just go down and fight? I would love to see a revised version of those 2 quest without the summoning aspect.

As for those of you talking about how corp was the downfall of RS and no-one listens to your opinion is because your opinion is flawed and isn't true at all. Just doing some wiki searching and going back to the old archives will tell you that story....also not everyone is maxed who was asking for corp....there are people really low who want a goal to motivate them to train. Stop saying go to RS3 if I want corp or if I want this.....it's NOT THE SAME THERE! I want pre-eoc....so if there's old content returning and if it's in a reasonable way then I will vote yes. New content I will also vote yes for if I like it....which I can't say for Artisan...voted yes for the idea but no twice because of the execution with the details....sad a great idea didn't make it. As for the ward shields, their price might not move as much because of the stats. Those shields are affordable compared to spirit shields and even pre-eoc there wasn't many shields for that whole year after release until....well....the ring of wealth update.....


This exactly tired of ppl saying go to rs3 the whole reason i came back to osrs was for the combat system not cuz i was mad about overpowered armor and weapons and same goes for probably 60% if not more of the people playing old school atm. People need to at least use some logic behind their accusations rather than saying go play rs3 if you want this or that.

If you don't want spirit shields make sure you vote yes to #1 aswell, don't **** yourself over because the poll is done in a ****** way.

I wouldn't mind corp with different drops, but voting yes to question #1 when you don't even know how it will turn out yet is stupid.

You're an idiot...They will offer a different set of rewards if the spirit shields fail. Voting no to corp because of the dislike of spirit shields is pure ignorance. And if Corp fails they'll repoll it with different rewards still..

I'm not going to vote yes on corp when I don't even know what I'm getting yet. They might aswell have worded it "Should we introduce Corp to oldschool? we can't tell you what drops it's gonna have yet, we'll tell you in a week" because that's basically what it is..

I want corp but not with spirit shields, so why would I risk effectively voting yes on it? it's a **** way of polling and the same was done with the trading post which I said was **** back then too.

Have a farken cry everyone... this is all i see; "I wont be able to afford a divine because I'm a poor pleb, so I'm going to vote no so nobody gets one"

Isn't it going to be more like. The people who were rich in regular Runescape who traded their gold for 07 will be the ones who can afford spirit shields? I mean, like the ones who were well on their way to 200m in certain skills that only require money to gain mass amounts of experience when this game first released in 2013... all the while most of us were struggling to afford our first set of rune armor

This still has no impact on my decision to vote yes or no for the shields. But I think because of this fact it's hard to really justify being poor to being a poor Runescape player.

I love the idea of Hardcore Ironman, but they would *need* some things to help them progress through the game. I'm thinking about quest kits, tool kits, resource bags (such as herb, ore, gem, etc), and more for *hardcore ironman accounts* to progress far. At the moment, doing (or even getting to) content like the fight caves would require 90+ range and maybe 70+ defense to clear it with so few supplies because of the lack of inventory. For a more simple solution, I'd support access to a bank that can only hold certain items (gp, ores, uncuts, herbs, ess, tools, etc). If hardcore ironman does get released as described now though, the high scores will definitely be impressive! (even getting to 50+ stats would take weeks...) Legacy PvP Improvements
