No more threats in Wildy!
Quick find code: 74-75-242-66277562
Haven’t been able get on to try anything out - but I’m very pleasantly surprised in some areas and slightly disappointed in others, from what I’ve read so far.
1. I like that Jagex closed common luring loopholes (cursed being removed, Warbands requiring a skull to be interacted with.) WITHOUT removing the element of risk vs reward that things like the Demonic Skull and Warbands are supposed to have. While it’s sad that those activities and items are now the only thing that remains from the Wilderness as it should be - I was expecting those to be inherently damaged somehow.
2. Hopefully Chaos Elly can’t just drop me into a pack of abyssal savages anymore. Haven’t seen yet.
3. The nerf to AFK Thieving at the Rogues’ Castle safes was a tad overzealous. Even with the threat system that wasn’t a dangerous activity at all.
4. I think I’ve seen somewhere where Ash Lords and Berserkers were still really good, but pretty much every other Slayer task in the Wilderness has been rendered dead content. Would love to hear your findings, Dilbert.
5. I think Wilderness Slayer should be retooled to encourage slaying with PvP enabled in light of this outright remove of threats otherwise.

I liked the old system with the ghosts roaming the wild land, pretty cool...

Very good news, indeed.
I'm ok with less rewards, as long as threat mechanics NEVER COME BACK AGAIN!
Neutral on this master maxed character, but I have tried it on my lower level toons, it is actually very good news, especially in the upper mid to north side of Wildy. That part of wildy used to be a very dangerous zone for slayers because of the sheer number of higher level mobs. Besides, lower level players don't have to run away from randomly spawned mobs beyond their slayer levels.

that made me quit for a long time. players i could deal with, stay in single combat and stay in combat. revs? nah they said screw the rules and could attack when you couldnt fight back! they were the worst way to deal with the issues the wild had back then.
