I guess you can yank suggestions for Rat Pits and Mobilizing Armies.
Rat Pits will get removed in a future update.

Do you think a "make F2P accessible" would help some of the activities?

Fish Flingers
Pest Control
Trouble Brewing

I'd suggest Soul Wars, but the only way to do that would be to sub out the Pyrefiends and Jellies with something like Hellhounds and Lesser Demons on F2P worlds.

Rat Pits do need a full rework to be proper game content, or to even be playable at all, thanks to EoC. Their removal is a disgusting, lazy move. There's still hope for MA, though.

It'd be nice to add some minigames to F2P, perhaps Pest Control and Stealing Creation. Those are fun and have good rewards, though some'd have to remain members only of course. Fish Flingers is trickier because D&Ds are all members' and Trouble Brewing is on Mos Le'Harmless.

Perhaps you're half right; perhaps we can't win. But we can fight.

"I was forced to play with EoC and put the calls into my action bar. When I dragged the egg colours there I expected it'd work for other roles too. When I switched to another role though, they didn't. Why can't it update to your current role, kind of like the old Style 1,2,3 - except the abilities change their icons and names?

And lastly ... update the stupid Tutorial!
It's still the same horrible one I didn't understand when I first played BA eight years or so ago.
At least it was some months ago when I tried to find out if there was something new in there for Hard Mode."

To a player new to BA this system is unexplained and overly complicated

I think you can now cut your Rat Pits suggestions ....

Ah right, I'll update them.


I like what you did with your entry for them :)

It's utterly futile but I have to take a stand, don't I?

It's quite a shame they removed all the areas and characters as well, rather than just disable the minigame itself, since the atmosphere and dialogue were fantastic.

Yeah - I do agree with you on this, I honestly did guessed they would just shut down the minigame itself and not remove the areas as a whole.

I do not even think they would need to put too much work into it if want to bring it back into the game - re-coding of course and maybe giving slight xp rewards for playing (maybe two-digit hunter for every rat killed and three-digit summoning for every game won, both with slight level based scaling - of course just thoughts of mine)
Improvements: Tooltip / (F2P) QoL v2
Quick Fixes: Invention

They didn't even remove the areas, except for Ardougne, which was connected to the Sewers (which means they also removed a door with a humourous examine text). They just removed the entrances; you can still see the Rat Pits and their NPCs from certain places using an orb of oculus.
