Your are all aware of the cut off point for most skills. That is where leveling past a certain level is pointless because there is no new content. This is true for most skills and even combat skills have a cut off point.

 

 

 

You may disagree on adding more and more high leveled combat gear but I have a suggestion that could fill in these gaps and not add any more over powered pvp gear.

 

 

 

My suggestion is simple. Introduce equipment that can only be player made, is not tradeable, and finally, can not be used on pvp worlds but that could still be used for safe mini games such as soul wars.

 

 

 

Most pkers will probably flame me for this but it is true. With ags, d claws and other recent combat gear you can two hit someone with 99 hp and adding weapons that can hit higher would just be a waste and further degrade pvp. Only if the hp level was raised could stronger pvp gear be introduced without further destroying the triangle. But if we added higher combat gear that can hit harder, faster and stronger without being used for pking this would mean that higher level monsters could be introduced and existing monsters could also be killed more easily by higher level players without destroying the pvp triangle.

 

 

 

My suggestion is for adding new content to all skills at the 80 and 90 mark to fill in the gaps and make it harder to obtain these higher powered armors by simply just buying.

 

 

 

For instance, the armor at the lv 80 mark could have stats that are better than god wars equipment but the level 90 gear could have slightly better stats then the lv 80 but it would also have a special ability. More on that latter.

 

 

 

For instance in order to make a new bow you would first have to use an equivalent farming and wood cutting level in order to grow a special tree to make it. Then using crafting make a bow string from the roots of that tree as well. Using the fletching skill you could fletch and string the bow the bow and make arrows with special arrow heads that could be obtained as either a slayer drop or as hunting drops similar to kebbit bolts. It would be the same with cross bows except including the smithing skill to make the stocks.

 

 

 

This could work with all weapons, armors, and shields with the added bonus that for armor such as range and mage armor you would need to use the slayer skill in order to kill special monsters in order to obtain hides to craft with.

 

 

 

After this you will then need to make a potion using herblore and enchant it with a magic spell which will then be poured over your armor and weapons giving them magical properties so that they are just not ordinary hunks of wood and mettle.

 

 

 

This could be done with all armors and even tools such as harpoons, hatchets, pick axes, and all the other gear we use for training non combat skills.

 

 

 

the complete process for making the weapons and armor, sorry but the grand tale of adventure style of writing that i used just seemed fitting :)

 

 

 

[hide=attack/defense/strength/range/mage]obviously in order to use the new weapons and armor[/hide]

 

 

 

[hide=mining]using mining you will be able to mine guthonium.[/hide]

 

 

 

[hide=thieving]of course refining this new ore will not be an easy task and there is only one dwarf left alive who will be able to do it. using your thieving skills you will need to steal a key from thurgo and sneak through his basement in order to find his secret furnace.[/hide]

 

 

 

[hide=smithing]now that you have found the greatest secret of the dwarves you can now use your smithing skill to refine the and make bars. then using thurgo's anvil you will be able to make melee armor and weapons![/hide]

 

 

 

[hide=agility]however just melee gear will never do as every adventurer has uses for magic and ranged combat as well. however these armors can not be made from mettle so it up to you to use your stamina and endurance and crawl through the many dungeons of gilenor looking for rare and exotic ingredients.[/hide]

 

 

 

[hide=slayer]one of the monsters that attracts rangers and mages both is the empress dragon! ages ago a massive war was fought between the king black dragon and magnificent golden empress dragon for control of the dragon race. the empress dragon lost and the king black dragon sealed her away inside of a dungeon hoping that this imprisonment would convince her to join his cause. now a dungeon has been unsealed and slayers from all over are rushing in to fight her in the hopes of collecting her hides for use in making the finest range armor ever to grace gilenor. and collecting her cast off claws and teeth for use in the strongest bolts and arrows to ever be used.

 

 

 

mages even seek to match their skills against this beast in the hopes of collecting her golden main for use in weaving the strongest silk robes to ever have been woven.[/hide]

 

 

 

[hide=crafting]once these fabulous materials have been collected a competent crafter is able to weave the golden main into the finest mage robes ever seen and to sew the hides together into the greatest range armor to ever grace the lands.[/hide]

 

 

 

[hide=farming]but what is a ranger without his bow? tales have surfaced from the fairy queen about a magnificent tree that once graced the land but has since been lost because of the god wars. only the spirit trees themselves are old enough to recall the graceful giants and it is rumored that several seeds still exist. for your help the spirit trees are willing to entrust in you the task of bringing these giants back into gilenor.[/hide]

 

 

 

[hide=woodcutting]now comes the unfortunate part. using your mighty lumberjack skills you must chop down one of these beasts in order to obtain its logs and roots. using your crafting skills you can shape these logs into magnificent battle staffs to aid the strongest of mages.[/hide]

 

 

 

[hide=hunter]of course before you make your bow you will need to find feathers for the arrows and bolts. no those chicken feathers won't do, we need something grander, something stronger, something that can take a lot of punishment. ah i sure hate to be the poor sap who has to track down the beast that those belong to. what you need of course are the feathers of an adult griffin! heading into the mountains you will need to use your tracking skills to find this illustrious.... bird? and collect its feathers for making your arrows.[/hide]

 

 

 

[hide=fletching]using your fletching skill you must now carve these massive logs into either a bow or cross bow and with the aid or a skilled crafter turn the roots of this tree into a string that would make even the elves envious. of course what is a bow without arrows? making shafts from the logs you have gathered you can now feather them with the feathers of a griffin.[/hide]

 

 

 

[hide=herblore]didn't think you were done yet did you? for all these grand materials they are still just sticks and stones. aggie has been working on a new potion to be used to strengthen and enhance a substances natural properties. unfortunately shes having problems obtaining several ingredients for this potion and she could really use your help. one of these ingredients in a herb called drake fang. unfortunately it is a rare herb from the eastern lands and none of it has ever survived transport to our kingdom. instead you will need to obtain a seed and grow one right from scratch. oh and be careful aggie has grown found of you and i hear drake fang has a nasty bite.[/hide]

 

 

 

[hide=fire making]welcome back. oh please try not to bleed all over the brand new carpet. here sit down have some cooked lobster or a dozen. aggie has sent an unusual request. she now needs the ashes of a soul demon for her potion. there has been some whispers out of lunar isle that the mages there have been experianceing some awful nightmares and that a soul demon might have found a way into the dream world. unlike most demons soul demons have a hatred for fire and you will need to light fires throughout the dream world in order to force it out and defeat it.[/hide]

 

 

 

[hide=fishing]come now chap just cause you have one leg doesn't mean you shouldn't stand up straight. aggie has one more ingredient she needs you to fetch. we have a message from sir Tiffy that a new kind of sea slug has surfaced from the sea. we need you to go talk to Murphy and convince him let you use his boat in order to catch one and collect a vial of slime from it.[/hide]

 

 

 

[hide=runecrafting]ah welcome back. hello Murphy what are you doing here? Murphy?? (falls to the floor and something falls off of his head) poor little guy starved to death....any-hoo aggie has finished her potion and... no, no don't drink it! your brand new armors are almost finished but i have looked at the potion myself and there is one thing that it is missing. a touch of magic. i want you to go now and talk to the mysterious old man in draynor he... yes the guy who broke into that bank a few years ago, he... no no he won't be interested in your barrows armor he has a party hat for Pete's sake. i want you to go to him and developed a completely brand new spell to strengthen your armor, might even require you make a brand new rune, and then you are to cast this spell on the potion.[/hide]

 

 

 

[hide=construction]good your back. unfortunately it seems that the mysterious old man has become interested in what you are doing and it has become prudent for us to find another place to continue our work. you do have a house of you own don't you? ah excellent it even has an armor stand and a work bench and even a chapel for us to finish our work.[/hide]

 

 

 

[hide=prayer]now that you have poured your potion over your equipment you will have to pray to the gods and ask for there favor so that this enchantment will be everlasting.... I'll be over in the palour. scream if something goes wrong.[/hide]

 

 

 

[hide=summoning]see very last paragraph[/hide]

 

 

 

[hide=cooking]grr the one skill i have no answer for yet[/hide]

 

 

 

[hide=special gear][/hide]

 

 

 

 

 

And finally for those that do reach the 90 mark in order to make these weapons and armor they will get a special reward. I have thought for a while on how to incorporate summoning into this formula and it got me thinking of a whole new use for familiars. Instead of binding the familiars to a pouch people who have made the new armors could bind familiars right into their own armor! this could give added bonuses such as adding a fire titan to a chest body would increase your resistance to fire based attacks. While adding talon beasts to weapons could give your weapon a three hit special attack. With the amount of summoning familiars the combinations would be endless! These familiars would of course vanish after a time and would need to add another one to your armor giving you the chance to switch which kinds of familiars you want added to your equipment. you will not need 90+ summoning in order to bind a familiar to a piece of equipment but it sure helps having a geyser titan instead of a lowly dreadfowl.

50 would to too hard to implement as we have granite, rune and dragon.

 

 

 

The higher level idea I like, summoning and armour would be cool even if it was only a colour scheme.
