I don't like mining being so hard now so it is just my opinion. You can have yours for all i care. And since when did I say mining prices will even out perfectly? I said they will even out based on the time required and demand.

In case you don't know, a skillcape is a very prestigious acheivement and many people strive to get it. So, if the ore prices fall, many people will try to train smithing. Its the same logic as 99 construction, cooking, fletching, firemaking, etc. All are buyable 99s. Smithing is more like construction because of its high costs.

I already nerfed it for god's sake!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Until you come up with a program to calculate dps, shut the hell up.

The intent of that 30 minute delay is to stop people from using it to do, say rune running, or whatever there might be. It might take you an hour to mine a full load of gold, but I don't see that as a problem if you use apparate. I don't think you understood what I meant. I meant rune mining and other kinds of mining and also some other skills will take a very long time at the resource gathering space/whatever. And also, I think flak blast is sort of overpowered. Maybe it should be nerfed to up to 6/7 spaces away? I think the rewards are fine as they are, but there are some problems with the spells. Don't take my opinion as I do not support everything. I'm sort of a part supporter/whatever. Maybe you should include a spell that binds for 20 seconds-entwine or whatever. Maybe it needs 88+ mage?

BTW, a spear is a versatile weapon, but in real life, a versatile weapon can be EXTREMELY useful whereas in runescape, where crush and stab weapons suck, there's no point for a versatile weapon.

SIMPLE-IT IS VERY HARD TO TRAIN. Fine the price is important but after the reasons I gave, can't you see the prices will balance out more or less. And who cares if 14000 people have 85 smithing and above. Once ore prices drop at first, many more will try to obtain a smithing skillcape, making ore prices go up again.

Max hit of 33. 2-3 hits with a very fast weapon-ye olde scimitar and the mage is dead. And btw, mages aren't exactly renowned for having very high hp or defence. There are a lot of pjers in crowded areas, and crowded areas are the best for killing people. Who wants to wait for 30 mins in a quiet area until a lvl 126 comes along and smashes him up?

We're talking about meleers for god's sake. Why make it more complex with ranged weps. Paraphrased-Ha Ha. You made me seem like a fool. And btw, jagex controls the npcs and don't tell me jagex are robots.

Then why do mages have to be forced to pk in teams? Don't try to counter this, it is proven that mages ARE good only in teams, unless you are an expert mage. The pathetic length of bind only allows you to fire one shot, run back like maybe one step and the meleer will be after you with mage protect. There is also the constant worry of pjers, one of the biggest problems for a mage, as they can sneak up unsuspected in a crowded world and spec for high damage and a potential kill.

Combat, especially melee, is damn boring. Especially at agressive monsters. Sit there for 10 mins and let them attack you and auto retaliate. After 10 min, walk out and come back in. Repeat. Like maybe every 2-3 minutes you can check for food/whatever. I never said i wanted mining to be a woodcutting number 2. And I don't need tips on how to train. There are countless guides on this. If you say woodcutting is boring, mining is worse. Anyway, you can sort of afk for mining, e.g. read forums, watch videos muted, etc. and you just have to wait until the "pickaxe hit the rock" sound stops. It is afkable unless you are powermining. The price is not so important. Sure, it will affect a lot of miners, but 1/2 rune ores per rock wouldn't affect it too much. Why do yew trees have more than 1 log? I don't see why rocks shouldn't. they're big enough to at least hold 2-3 ores. BTW, you're forgetting something important-the smithing skillcape. If ore prices drop at first when the skill is updated, more smithers will try to buy ores, then resulting in the ore prices picking up again. Also, some people might quit mining because of this and this would result in higher prices because of lesser miners.

How rare are those monsters compared to the normal monsters that slash weps are the best for? Like 1:100 or more??? Of course, every weapon has a specific use(except for some crap like maces), but it depends on how common and advantageous that use is.

Ok-if carrying a fortress on your back is impossible, then how come you can lug like 10,000,000,000 coins around? If a coin weighs 50g, this would be 500,000 tonnes heavy, and I bet you, this will weigh more than a fortress that size.

This isn't weakening the armor, it's making the armor harder to use properly. Or you can say this makes the user more annoyed about losing the armor rather than making the armor weaker. Just wait until the armor comes out before talking about lowering its stats. If you want, there're plenty of overpowered weapons like the whip, godsword(special), dbow(special), etc.

I never said i was ok with Heal Other. I just said that the fact of people doing it all the time does not justify this doing. So both should be removed. And I did not say that it can only be used while mining rune. How did you get that assumption? While mining gold, I take at least an hour for a full inventory at Al kharid mine. I'm sure other kinds of mining like mithril to adamantite will not need you to be in the wildy.

You quoted me wrongly for goodness's sake. I didn't say the first paragraph at all. Ok so I was wrong about Jagex never nerfing any weapon before. And btw, the whip + defender combo has the highest damage per second of any weapon. So this shows that it is the best weapon combo unless you are talking about specials. And btw, what's all the talk about d bows and stuff. Those aren't weapons for meleers so they're out of the question. P.S. I've weakened the dagger and removed the triple damage part.

Mage is powerful in lower level pking. So? Most people are continually striving to be better, higher leveled, richer, etc, unless they are pures which are long outdated. F2p mage pking is not effective at all anyway. Bind holds for a pathetic 5 seconds? They can't even drain the meleer's run energy so he can chase up with the mage who is standing still?

I never said that high levels don't deserve what they earned with their time/money. Making mining easier has nothing to do with high levels having advantages. Like the recent red salamander update. Nobody much spammed on the forums about that. As long as the update to make mining easier isn't too drastic, not make every rock have as much logs as woodcutting. Or every rock MIGHT have more than one ore, but after mining one ore you have to click again to mine the next one. This will make mining not as afkable as you have to keep clicking. What I see is you not being able to cope with change. Runescape has been made easier to play so many times. Cook X option and Pest control made people mad about doing it the "honourable" way and felt their effort was wasted. Example: You get 99 cooking without the "cook x" option because you started playing long ago. Then, a newcomer comes and gets 99 cooking much faster with the cook x option. So you're going to get mad? The newcomer gets the advantages of change because he came later. You get the advantage of starting earlier.

Level 87 for 70% chance of success, 99 for 100%. Not something everyone is able to do. Also, only one cast/30 minutes. People do this all the time with Heal Other. Remote Deposit All - 94 - 5 Law, 20 Air - Deposit up to 20 items with one cast. May use with coins, bones, runes, food and potions. Don't want to hog your suggestion or anything, Sees, I just feel enraged when people leave comments like this. D: inform me if you don't want me to do posts like this. 70% chance of success. Do it twice then. Costs about 3.2k or something if im not mistaken. Rune mining/some other kinds of mining and some other skills require much more than 30 minutes at the place. People doing it all the time with heal other doesn't justify this. In your logic, I should punch someone because someone just punched that person. Ok i was wrong with the remote deposit all. You still haven't replied about supreme alchemy. And btw that's a ripoff from my spellbook, except you changed the lvls and requirements.

A sword will do lesser damage while slashing compared to a mace against heavily armored opponents. This is because a slashing sword is lighter than a mace, therefore it has lesser momentum because of its weight. Sure, slash owns crush if the opponent is not very prepared with heavy armor since it is faster and does more damage to the body. Stab is usually only for sneaky and fast attacks to vulnerable areas/when opponent is not alert because of its general fast speed.

Cost is VERY important in Pvp. Will someone go pking in a party hat just to get drop potential? Obviously not. same scenario as in real life. If something is cheaper but slightly weaker (in the case of melee against a mage-only in lower levels), people will still use it. Its why there are so many meleers but not as much rangers/mages. Lets just cut this crap about medieval times. RS is just a fantasy game.

I keep repeating my points becuase you kepp repeating your points as you don't even understand what I'm talking about. And I don't see why is this ruining a skill. You earn too much money/get too much power with something, then Jagex tries to balance it out. And I never said that I can't stand mining for goodness's sake!!!!!!!!! It is very hard to train(not too hard to train). So when a skill is too hard, it automatically needs to be updated to become easier? Maybe before you had something going, but now you're just pushing it way too much. Also, it doesn't matter what you change, if you get more ores per rock, you WILL see a CONSIDERABLE loss in profit. SO what if you get a considerable loss of profit? You can't bear to lose it? While mining a high lvl ore, you can afk too. Most people don't afk while mining but they clan chat or read other stuff/whatever while mining. You need to pay some attention, but you can still afk. Smithing balanced? You must be mad. It can't even generate much profit unless you get the materials yourself/smith steel bars.

F2p mage and range being better? dream on. Mage in f2p is so EXPENSIVE and not really worth it compared to a meleer. At lvl 42-43 or whatever level, the mage wouldn't have anyone to pk in pvp worlds since all the meleers are still training and rangers are still very weak. Training def is pointless for a mage because meleers will just reap through their crappy armor. Even if this is a medieval themed game, this doesn't mean melee should be better. After all, it is a GAME, not reality. And it is a fantasy game and there are many differences from medieval weaponry and armor. I mean-how can a whip be more powerful than a sword in medieval times?

I didn't say we should make every skill like woodcutting. I said mining should be like woodcutting, but i did not say it should be identical to the point where you get logs from rocks or ores from trees. I'm implying that it should be easier to train mining. Don't say I'm a noob who just wants to get to 85 mining quickly because I want to earn millions. You say variety is the spice of life. Then what if the variety is you being a poor beggar on the road and someone else you dislike being a billionaire? Its variety isn't it? But we have to try to balance this out. Why should woodcutters earn not as much as miners then? You can't bear to lose your way of earning money, don't you think the woodcutters like mining being so overly good in earning money(once you get to rune anyway)? Why shouldn't there be demand for mining? Smithing is too hard to train and far by not worth it. Training smithing to such a high level just to smith rune is pointless. Yew is as good as rune but it only requires 65 fletching to make yew shortbow. However, you still need 85 and above smithing to smith better rune items. Runecrafting should be easier-i mean, that's why mages aren't very popular because of the high rune costs. But anyway that belongs in another topic. BTW a ton isn't metric. A tonne is metric but a ton is I don't know whatic.

How exactly will two billion gp fit in your backpack? Or 28 rune ores? 10000000 arrows? I think the base idea is quite good and will make certain useless skills like firemaking more useful. But maybe the base's size should be reduced by a bit as it might cause lag if there were like 5+ bases around. I have a suggestion: maybe there would be certain "fixed" areas to build fortresses, that are not too near to chokepoints so people can't instant ko people walking out of the town/whatever (btw after teleport there would be a temporary invulnerability shield). Then there would be more competition for the better spots so it will result in more clan combat.

Since when did i say the quest was hard? I said its easy. Anyway, your spellbook is rubbish. Those high lvls will probably put on their shields in mage armor BEFORE stepping into the pvp world. And you shouldn't copy to spells-you should say that the requirements should be lowered. Anyway, some spells like flak blast are overpowered. Hitting so many people and pushing them around up to 9 spaces? The apparate spells are too powerful. Think of miners, woodcutters etc. teleporting to banks. Sheath other. A rich noob can just hire like 10 people to sheath other him. Ok i doesn't stack but 10 different people doing it 10 times not one doing it 10 times. Super alchemy will just cause an economic crash and another level of powertraining mage, only that its from lvl 90 onwards. 4 natures? like 1kgp...? And high alchemy can earn a bit of money already. SUPER alchemy? Won't you be earning millions from a cheap spell costing 1k per cast? Remote deposite all is so overpowered. Miners/wcers/fishermen/whatever can just teleport items quickly to the bank just by equipping a air staff and using at most about 1.6k compared to 10 mins running to and fro from the bank(rune mining?). ONE rune ore can be mined in like maybe 1+ min. so in about 10 min, the miner can earn at least 50 times as much as the cost of this spell. So whose spellbook is rubbish?
