I was thinking about the max guild and how so many of us spend our precious time bankstanding and socializing here...and while many love its signature white walls and atmosphere, I think it would be a great idea to be able to customize the max guild much like your house! As we work hard to earn our cape and can customize that, why could it not extend to the guild that we belong to?

Here is my suggestion:

Create a build mode for the max guild, much like your house. This mode will be able to customize all the hotspots already present, like move the NPCs present here around (maybe with an option to move them up top by the throne). Maybe someone wants to swap the positions of the bonfire and the portal, maybe someone wants to move the throne downstairs by the bank?

In addition to this, this mode would allow you to change the colors of the walls and windows, completely customizable much like the max cape. Maybe you want a different window pane, maybe you want a yellow/blue theme like the invention cape or a brown and gold theme like the crafting cape?

I also had another idea about having skill trophies in the max guild...what are these? Well, you can have monster head trophies mounted in your house by doing PvM...why not skill related trophies related to all the skills as you're training them, acquirable similar to the pets? You could have something like Movran's Training Sword that you can get and mount from training slayer, or Char's tinderbox by training firemaking, or even Necrovarus pajamas from training Prayer! I think it would a nice idea to be able to mount them in the max guild to showcase your achievements and even maybe an option for other maxed people to be able to visit your max guild to skill and chill.

Also, adr crystal and a few extra bossing portals close to bank would be nice (a Wars Retreat alternative).

What are your thoughts?

A wizard butler or scrying pool or philosopher's stone etc. which provides free NPC contact spells.

Add some new NPCs while we're at it, Oldak being the first that comes to mind. May, the black market seller and the trader from PoP would be swell too.

Hi Mod Raven,

When the max guild was first announced, the first thing I thought of was how epic the dungeon would be. The legends guild, heroes guild, warrior's guild, and champions guild all have downstairs areas.
When the heroes guild first came out, the rune rock resources outside of wildy and the blue dragons made it amazing, on top of the fact that you have a mystical fountain to charge your Amulet of Glory!
When the Legends guild first came out, the shadow warriors were amazing to train on, and even the litlte scorpions there that were decent xp!

However, the Max guild has no dungeon. This is super disappointing, I was showing a friend who I used to play Runescape classic and early runescape 2 with back on the day the max guild for the first time on stream, and he was underwhelmed. I am not asking for an elite dungeon with super crazy bosses or anything, but having a few monsters and resources, maybe some type of new fountain, etc. Would be great.

Also the max guild is a great way to seperate yourself from toxicity in-game, however currently the best xp method for me would be to go to lumberidge due to the amount of pulse core boosts and portables. Make it so that the bonfire gives the same xp as as a portable, and make skilling in the max guild give the effects of a pulse core boost. I know that sounds overpowered, but it usually takes hundreds of days of game time to be able to max, and I'd rather be getting a 10% boost in the max guild, rather than having to go to lumberidge combat academy to train, a place designed for beginners.

The idea of having the elder overload was absolutely amazing. I was thinking of a similar idea to be put into the game.

Place in the max guild (to make it more useful again since war retreat has taken over the benefits).

The overload well would be able to hold 3 types of overloads (overload, supreme overload, elder overload. You would have to put the overloads into the well (with a cap) and then you could pick to either have 30 minutes or 1 hour of the effects this would go off the number of doses you have in the well. This is good because you still have to make them but opens up 1-2 inventory spots and doesn't effect other aspects of the game.

You have the prayer flask so something like this could be similar but in a well form which you can pick before you leave.

You could make it like war retreat where you have to unlock it.. For example maybe 5,000 boss kills OR boss kills and number of slayer points, etc.

Elder overload golems, however, to make them involves a short miniquest, utilising the max guild and the mage training arena to get some foot traffic back in there.

To create them, they need to absorb 1,000 overloads to help take herb supplies out of the game.

Alternatively i'd love to see a minigame portal, even if you have to create it by donating 1,000 games necklaces, 1,000 skill necklaces, ect.
