Dragon defender does not devalue the dfs.. We have been over this many times. The dfs and ddef have different uses. Dfs is a tank shield and defender is an offensive shield.

The only areas where the ddef would be better than the dfs are areas where the rune defender is already better than the dfs.

The only reason dfs would be less valuable is because people panic sell for no reason.

Mod Philip was just offering us a future engine update that'd help us reassign themed worlds quickly when this sort of thing happens. I think we'll take him up on the offer. Not sure when we'd get it, of course, and it wouldn't help today anyway. When worlds go down for maintenance the client still tries to load them, would it be possible to add a temporary exception to those worlds too?

Glad there's no dragon defender. I'll never ever use this update but I'm happy with it - the reward shop... especially since most of the items listed in the update are those that have a set shop price after completing a quest... couldn't see the prices dropping too hard... unless of course they're really easy to obtain such as the NMZ ended up being.

Why not poll dragon defenders again? We need this in game so that there is incentive to entering the wilderness.

Not sure. Scheduled updates of this nature are uncommon, especially ones that aren't complete within a few minutes. But I would like the world lists to stop listing worlds when they're offline, rather than continuing to show them with the last known player count.

When we poll something and people don't support it enough for it to pass the poll, that doesn't mean we should ask the same question over and over again until people vote Yes. Otherwise there'd be no sense in polling anything.

Instead it means we should poll Wilderness incentives that'd get more support. There's quite a few things that did pass, including two that haven't come out yet.

Okay but surely you can see from the 73% that the D Defender is wanted, and needs to implemented in another way! So it would make sense to poll an alternative means of getting it unrelated the wilderness. 2595 RS3 Efficiency Experts

Should add some stuff from the nmz reward shop such as ess, and herb boxes. These don't need to be voted on since people already allowed for items from other reward shops

Like I said, we shouldn't ask the same question over and over again. But we can certainly offer different questions, yes.

The shop looks waaaay to boring. I was expecting more with the shop but players are too touchy over the game so it ruins it for other people.
In case it helps, the rune pouch should be out next week. Plus the clue box thing.
