I really think there should be better prayers. I mean, with these current prayers, what's the point in spending a week-month to get your prayer to 43+?? Prayer is too much an underated skill. I mean in real RPG games you have more than "Warior, Ranger, Mage". You have like 20 classes, and 1,000+ different ways to play them. You have Clerics, who use "prayer" to heal and summon and curse. You have Paladins who bless weapons and boost stats. You have Druids who shapeshift and attack with the elements. And those are the "prayer" oriented classes alone...

I'm not saying you should only hav 1 atck str and def, I'm saying prayer should be more powerful. I have 47 str 45 atck and 37 def, and all 40 lvls in prayer aren't doing crap. I mean sure, protection from ranged has saved my skin out in the wildy a few times, but really prayer is only good against monsters and NPC's.

WHY DO I HAFTA REPEAT MYSELF???????????? YES, IT IS VALID AS IT'S OWN SKILL (YOU SEE IT IN ALL THE OTHER FANTASY RPG GAMES!!!!) YOU TRAIN IT BY SNEAKING AROUND!!!!! ' Awww, look at the cute little noob getting upset. Seriously bud, your logic is pretty flawed. Finaly Fantasy, yes, final fantasy, now would does final fantasy and runescape not have in common. Oh yeah, one is online. Oh wait, you mean here you're not fighting ONLY monsters? Why yes, that's right. By the way, there are many RPGs (and good ones) that don't have any kind of stealth skill. This kind of skill would just be stupid for something like runescape. Very stupid. Why not just call it roguescape. I love how little you thought it out too, all you said is "there should be a stealth skill" then didn't give any real detail. Ever heard of Baldur's Gate??? How about Neverwinter Nights??? Dungeons and Dragons Online??? All are MMORPG's and they have stealth skills. And as for the "not enough details" part, go back in the thread and it is clearly explained how it would work. Final Fnatasy kinda broke away from the first RPG games...seriously. Do you even know what the first RPG game ever was??? Chainmail. And Chainmail had a stealth skill. Then they went to Dungeons and Dragons, it also has stealth skills. Then Final Fantasy kinda had a stealth thing going on with theivery, but I consider that mugging, not stealth. Last time I checked, Runescape is one of the few RPG games that *doesn't* have a stealth skill. I don't know why all of you think it's so stupid. Does Zezima complain when Construction come around?? No, he leveled up to 87 in 1 day. I mean really, it isn't just "Warior, Ranger, and Mage" in RPG games. There is such a variety of paths you can take in real RPG games.

Why not?? Great ideas!!!1 U just dont want prayer noobs like me finally gaining real power.

true, it would be nice tho

I remember that thread, I suggested it. But WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY YOUR IDEA BACK THERE?!?!?!? Your version of the "Stealth Prayer" is way better than the other ppls. I think I just abandoned my idea of a "Stealth skill" and agree with you. It's an awesome idea, because it satisfies both sides of the argument. we should really approach jagex on this, because your idea is sounding better than mine.

Make a restricition (let's say a "scry block") so you couldn't tele to guilds and areas you can't normally get into. I mean this totally makes the "teleblock" spell worth it! As for lvl 20+ wildy, you can't tele there or away from there now, so why would you be able to tele there if they add this spell???

That is a very good point. If all of the land of Runescape wasn't magical, how would mages cast spells there? Sure, the runes store the magical energy, but without a proper conduit, it can't be released! So this obviously supports your idea Sligo.

It sure would teach them a lesson if they teled to a pker. As for the "unlogical" part, if you have ever played other fanatasy RPG games (besides Runescape) you know that teleportaion can also be achieved if you can see the area you are teleporting to. So if you can scry (magically see a person or place, even if you are miles away) the area, you can teleport there. Not so unlogical now, is it?

I don't think RuneScape need a "Stealth" skill. And I think Jagex wouldn't make it for everyone. What's the point in pulling it off, it'll never be as good as construction. Pointless Post. :shame: Good point, Jagex doesn't give the nonmembers anything anymore. Hey, it's not my fault I can't become a member!!! :x

How about Bomb Building skill \

WHY DO I HAFTA REPEAT MYSELF???????????? YES, IT IS VALID AS IT'S OWN SKILL (YOU SEE IT IN ALL THE OTHER FANTASY RPG GAMES!!!!) YOU TRAIN IT BY SNEAKING AROUND!!!!!

Oh yeah, I nvr thought of both ppl teleporting to the same place........ lol

What prayer lvl would be needed? How long would it last? Who would take the time to get their prayer lvl that hi (besides me cuz I'm a big stealth nerd)? And you can't combine both hiding and searching into one package. I may be able to hide well, but that doesn't mean I can search well. It's not realistic (even among fantasy RPG games).

this idea is much better than yours i can see this happening as well Am I repeating myself???? Have I already explained the technical and programming issues involved with prayer or magic related abilities???? I mean really, they would have to add in a whole new chain of commands and functions to pull it off (which is a HUGE PAIN!!!!!!!! I know from experience...). I mean if it takes a whole page of programming to make a chair, how much would it take to add a new prayer, and a new function?? It *could* work in theory. But there is a big obstacle to overcome, Notice how the "Protection" prayers only work some of the time with Players?? Well it would have to be the same with the Stealth prayer. And that is very, very, annoying. I happen to be a "Prayer Noob" (40 prayer, 54 combat), so I know when I say that a Stealth prayer just doesn't fit in with the other prayers. I mean sure, maybe a Stealth boosting prayer, but an actualy stealth prayer itself?? Like I said it *could* work. I suppose it's better than nothing though...

Ok tyvm Captaingoodguy. I know some spawns in the wildy if you wanna know them.

A very good point. I'm a nonmember, so all the towns are really close together. There's no real point of teleporting. It would be nice though, in the occasional instance in which you must get there very fast, but that's just a waste of runes. P.S: where do you get laws on a nonmember's world???

Lol that would be kinda funny, unless you had like full rune or something.....

Ok??????? :-s :-s :-s :-s I didn't say *I* was going to do anything, I'm just writing a suggestion.

What are you talking about, I have lvl 40 prayer!! Nothing is a waste of prayer, because you can always go to an altar. And if you can't be seen, you are going to be able to get to the altar safely. :roll: RIGHT???? :roll: also, if you added a "Detect" spell or prayer, how would it work?? They would have to add in a completely different formula (when they can just add the skill and use a similar formula for attack vs defense). That way, Jagex can add this feature in without making any crazy new changes. Sure, on the outside it may be "just another spell" or "just another prayer", but there's some serious programming issues there. Why not just take an existing formula and modify it a bit??

You would level up from sneaking around. If you go undetected, you gain EXP. If you are lvl 99 stealth, you are almost impossible to find. We aren't dissapearing for an amount of time. When you choose to go into "Stealth Mode" your movement rate would be slower, but you have a chance to stay hidden. Stealth lvl vs. Search lvl Lets say my stealth lvl is 50, and the other guy's searching is 55. 50 vs 55 Ok to successfully hide I would have to beat that. 55-5= 50 So, then a formula kicks in (Like when using attack vs defense to see if you do damage or not). Ok if you make the 5, you are still hidden and can't be seen for 10 seconds. Then after that you make yet another stealth vs search check.

Yes yes, sneaking, so you can only walk slower, but you are more stealthy. by the way, and can go hidden. WHAT PART OF NOT THIEVING OR AGILITY DO YOU UNDERSTAND?!?!?!?!? >>NONMEMBERS TOO!!!<< As for your comment on less chance of getting caught while thieving, ISN'T THAT CALLED THIEVING?????????? What I mean is being able to sneak past players and NPC's. Not thieving or agility or magic or prayer, it would be it's own skill. I'm mean sure, maybe having levels in those skills would give you a bonus, but you don't have to have them.

What I mean is not thieving or agility, I mean not being able to be seen. Like invisible, but you have to be in certain conditions. Like they would have to add 2 skills, Stealth and Search. Then they use a formula (similar to the attack vs defense) to see if the searching character finds the hiding one.

I think Runescape needs a "Stealth" skill. And i don't mean for members only, I mean for everyone. I'm sure they could pull it off, I mean look how they did Construction??

Awesome what's your prayer lvl?? Mines 40. I'm too poor to buy big bones..so I go to lvl 28 wildy.
