The ideas seem like QoL like you mentioned on page 2 but would definitely be nice to see in a larger mechanical overhaul of the skill since as you mentioned almost all rooms are useless aside from show.

I really think there should be at least 1 room for almost every skill in the game and you should be able to get as good or better xp per comparable skill level in your house as in the world. I think that even if they didnt want to go through the work of redesigning the building system to allow for at least specific tile placement (eg they keep it as stationary building hotspots), a room for every skill with the xp rate benefits i mentioned would suffice.

House design in generall should prefereably at least allow for building by tile and building hotspots (if they are kept) can be placed anywhere there is space. Farming "rooms" should be the top priority of a construction rework aside from large mechanical changes, especially after animals are added.

Additionally towers upand down should be allowed more than a couple floors. Style sets should be created for every unique building style in rs which acquisition methods varying between, crafting/purchasing/unlocking via quests/games/achievements, and purchasing vs runecoins.

Other rooms that are needed:
lvl 99 a POH bank branch should be able to be opened. (early level deposit box should be buildable)
dungeoneering room
forge + mine
water areas (pond/river/beach)
hunting area that can be built populated with 1-3 species depending on type and level
agility course
also:
-thieving dummy/other stations like locked chests
-well in garden with option herblore station
-potential runecrafting altars/access

additionally the portals need to go to better locations
also ofc the workshop needs to include invention bonuses
let us rent rooms to other players so they can use the facilities and we can ear money off of our housing investments

It would be nice to see a cold storage area added to the kitchen. We have a larder that provides basic ingredients, such as flour, milk, eggs, cheese, onion, potatoes, and tea. Why not expand upon that, with the cold storage larder, which could include raw beef, shrimp, anchovies, chicken. As well as a churn for the kitchen.

The aquarium could also use an overhaul as well, with new fish species coming soon with the advent of Deep Sea fishing. As well as fish from the Trawler. And Ketsujo to expand a bit further on your farm plot room, a new room that they could add as well that would work in unison to the farm land, a brewery.

One thing though that I am going to gripe about, the magic trees in the poh. Instead of using the RS2 model, update them to the RS3 model.
Don't ever think the reason I am peaceful is because I do not know how to be violent.

Jarod and Refur
Thank you for your input! They will be noted on the main page as your ideas are good ones and I like the idea of the building styles and types.
Renting out our home rooms like the Chapel would be sufficient as there are always people looking for an open alter to get that 43/96/99.

Bump. This is a very good Construction thread. Keep it going.


Those of us with high construction levels could really benefit from this update and would also help players really sink their teeth into other skill trees as well.

With the mining and smithing rework literally right around the corner, adding in my idea for a mining plot would be sufficient for lower tier ores and secondary's required.
Then there's also the fact that RS has become "Perkscape" here lately with the PoF update, and frankly...I love it.
However...
If my ideas are put into play, this could benefit everyone...might even promote some MTX if jagex uses their heads a little.

Gonna necro my own thread because Hey, Why Not?
This update or at least some of the detail that I went into should be considered for various reasons.
#realitycheck

RS3 has become what I like to call...an Idle Game. Certain Skills can be 99'd in a matter of days now ~ which is nice, but we need some niche's and incentives for getting those 99's that are heavy buyables if you catch my drift. Need that investment to count.

Construction is ONE such update - Leveling our construction for certain quests, PoA (which tied nicely into fishing btw), and even certain other skills that we mess around with.

However, the amount of GP we dump into a display of wealth that doesn't really benefit us after we hit 99 in Prayer, Fishing, and Cooking...well...you see where I'm getting at.

After the recent QoL updates we've received, it would be nice to see construction get some well deserved attention. It's been far too long, and quite honestly...I'd love to see this skill get some time under the cameras :-)

Really wish a Jmod or Product Manager from the Ninja team would take a look at this thread.
I feel its very well balanced, and doesn't overpower everyone or the house itself.
