ugh, I wrote a few pages on how to reintroduce summoning in PvP (in answer to their famliars are only BoB/Healing familiar)

 

-More use for multicombat familiars for Warbands, Clanwars, Wilderness Wars:
-Setting spells for magic familiars. (karamthulhu can do water spell but only up to 743damage, Smoke devil fire spell and can hit 6x6)
-Larger damage value on Spirit Larupia "Render" special-> Drains strength; magic attack.
-Arctic bear can stun opponent but this rarely happens; the attack also barely hits 150 so it's not really a viable option...
-Phoenix (Clanwars!). If we had something like a bag or urn to collect our ashes in which we could place on the ground and it'd suddenly spread the ashes this would be a very cool attack. (it will reappear on top of the ashes with full lifepoints -if the phoenix lost any- and deal damage based on how many lifepoints the phoenix had before using the scroll). 
-Praying mantis special would be the PvP familiar i'd go for, it binds if the attack is succesful and it's drains prayer. A wilderness PKers dream. It's max hit is 170 but the drain could be better.
-Forge Regent: My favourite if it's special would work: it disarms the other opponents weapon, in EoC PKing this could be a very brutal method since the opponent loses a few seconds equipping his weapon again giving you some time. The special barely (never) activates.
-Giant ent: huge tree, hits 150 damage. 
 
I forgot so much, le sigh, sorry for offtopic. Miss Lio new document doesnt woorkkkkk when do they up it :'(

Why summoning rework talk here o.O

Attuned Crystal Weapons

These will be tier 80 weaponry. These will also be based on Agility, meaning higher agility level is more damage.

I hope these doesn't mean crystal stuff *only* upgrades to t80 or a max of t80 - though budget wand and orb ftw lol

No t70 pick and hatchet?

WHY YOU DO THIS JAGEX.

 

Also kinda disappointed that the t80 crystal stuff is degrade to dust, I can see that it has an extra edge but it seems a bit much for parts of it:

Thrown we don't have t80

2h Slash we don't have t80 (halberd is slash right?)

 

I can see why it is kinda fitting though for like staff, wand/orb etc. even if I'd rather they not.

 

The light familiar sounds nice too - no more bad green tears. Not that I'm likely to need tears by the time batch 2 launches in november.

A big ugly divination crater in the Elf City ... :(

 

Tbf it looks quite nice.

 

The dev-build image yes uses the current model - but they told us at the start they just plug in existing assets and grey-blocks to get an idea before graphics are done; but on the page after that image they paint-over concept for the div crater looks very good.

https://twitter.com/JagexOsborne/status/474192506641711106  In reference to crystal hatchet/pickaxe.

 

Hurray we aren't getting useful items from a very obvious potential source because a skill rework that has been on the cards since like 2009-2010 ish is supposed to happen sometime before we die of old age.

 

I mean seriously? Smith rework was mentioned well before Artisans Workshop to the point people got mad at artisans workshop because it was not the rework we were promised and that launched in mar 2011 which is nearing 3 1/2 years ago! Not doing something because of theoretical reworks is frigging dumb and annoying unless they would care to sit down and tell us WHEN these reworks will be done and then STICK to it or inform us if plans change (unlike con rework being out on 2013, expect it nvr happened and was entirely ignored until they mentioned in passing in a qa it wasn't even dev and none of the skill reworks would be this year, because never mind the fact you mentioned ALL of the reworks in the '2014' segment of your own pr-fest convention or anything)

Wait a [bleep]ing second ... how would a crystal pickaxe tie in to the smithing rework at all???? It's barely tangential at best, and it honestly doesn't make a difference at all if they introduced a level 71 pickaxe now as opposed to with the rework.

 

As it is the level 61 wc/mining tools aren't even crafted, why bother making the level 71 versions a product of smithing at all?

Make a twitter account and let him know you disagree. Post on the forum thread http://[Use Quick Find Code]/c=v3QZ0X8D514/[Please Use QuickFind Code]?16,17,594,65387677 . While it may not change anything, they have been listening to feedback on these dev documents so maybe if enough mention they expected a pickaxe and hatchet they'll change it.

With the pickaxe it seems to be the same old problem as always with the tiering of items, they made the dragon pickaxe as an endgame item thats ridiculously rare and therefore valuable. Therefore anything else higher has to be even more rare, so as to not devalue and make redundant the dragon pickaxe, even though there theoretically should be at least 3 more tiers to come.

ha, i knew they were gonna bring that stupid chakram back

 

I think they degrade to dust for the sole reason of protecting chaotic equipment

 

I'm starting to get bored of protecting inferior items for the sake of doing so instead of actually trying to diversify the selection by giving them different uses

Easily fixed though.

Take dragon drops from their existing monsters, insert them in place of rune drops in the generic 'mid-high' drop tables.

Insert t70, t80 or t90 items in their place where appropriate and where not fill in with other good value drops.

 

Just requires jagex to get over the notion dragon items must stay in their prestigious drop slots because thats where they began - I doubt many people would really care if kq lost d chain or miths lost d full etc. as long as suitable higher replacements where injected in.

People are gonna shit bricks if dragon hatchet and pickaxe are moved down the drop tables though.

 

Unless of course we get t70 out by, i don't know, the elf city causing them to bottom out appropriately and then move em when no-one cares to throw in t80 or t90 ones.

Soft clue mine is the best thing ever though.

Eh, I'm pretty sure if the developers actually cared more they could produce an appropriately difficult task/process to create a level 71 pickaxe/hatchet and add it to the Elf City. I don't think there's a need to intentionally downgrade dragon tools by making them way more common, but rather just add an appropriately more difficult method to get the tools of the next tier up.
