lavirylime Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 We can equip pickaxes and hatchets but we can't equip fishing rods. Back in RS1 we had 30 item slots. For riverfishing, we would use 1 slot for feathers and 1 slot for the fly-fishing rod (or swap with bait/regular fish rod). 30-2=28, we can hold up to 28 fish before we go back to bank. For lobbying or harpooning, we spend 1 slot on the coins (Karamja passage, this is from the POV of a freeworlder) and 1 slot on the harpoon or cage. It's changed quite a bit now. We only have 28 max item slots and after the 2 taken up with equipment, we only have 26 slots available for the fish. Meanwhile, mining and woodcutting had 29 before and 28 now. Seems a bit unfair, hm? The proposed solution would be to be able to equip fishing rods and all the other equipment. They would have no attack bonuses at all (maybe +10 stab and +0 str for the harpoon, but that's probably as far as it'll go) and take up 1 hand. Lobster cages and small fishing nets will take up 2 hand. This way the people who fish can get 1 more fish in per run and over time, that is a lot of fish. That is all. I am a tree.

Bauke Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 You're just right. Fishing stuff should also be equipable. I think everything used in that way should be equipable. Hammers, for example, should be equipable too. Twitter ||| Google+ ||| Facebook ||| LinkedIn ||| My very interesting weblog about science Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CL_Gnatt Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 good idea, i have tossed the idea round a few times, namely with the hammer for smithing and lobster pot for fishing. 1 slot doesn't seem like much, but if you make like 100 trips, thats 100 things you miss out on. And plus you can equip pick axes? why not hammers? lobster pots or fishing rods or harpoons? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dazzuh Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 I have thought this before, but wouldnt carrying a lob pot around look wierd? Currently not active on RuneScape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lavirylime Posted April 26, 2006 Author Share Posted April 26, 2006 I have thought this before, but wouldnt carrying a lob pot around look wierd? No, the sprite would be similar to carrying a rubber chicken. Except it's a box, not a rubber chicken. feathers and bait in the arrow slot pl0x That works too :D I am a tree.

evanboy70 Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Absolutely. We should also be able to weild our tinderboxes in our sheild slot, our knives for fletching (should just be daggers, and then cut as an option), carry farming equipment, and instead of weilding hammers for smithing, become capable of using warhammers for joinery. Despite the examine description. This would allow both more creativeness in custom clothing designs, but make skills more efficient and interesting. Lobby pots should be sheilds, though. They're more sheild like. And we should be allowed to weild frog tokens as sheilds. Thats a bit off topic, but it'd be cool.

duutje Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 I agree. I really love that idea. At the moment I'm fishing in the Fishing Guild and after a while the extra slot really piles up: more fish, more xp, faster levels, but not too fast. Great idea! I fully support it!

Dreadlord Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 ive beeen tossin the idea around for the past few week's we should have a petition on tip it so we can get some benifits for evry 1 in rs (evry1 has rites) see wat i mean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrikerRay Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 ive been thinkin bout this fer a long time now[pro fisher :D ] so yeha i was wonderin wen they were gonna do tha cuz everythin else like minen and wcing u can equipped..but yeha the feathers/bait should be in tha arrows slot..and i think u shouldnt get attk,str, or def bonuses fer it cuz u jus shouldnt lol bad part is itll kind look funny walkin down tha streets of verrok or fally wit a lob cage or net, holdin it wit 2 hands[as u said]. And attkin wit those 2 things...not very..normal lol overall its a great idea, jus gotta figure out those other uh..problems lol \:D/ Ray::P2P::::Roaming Around::::Phat me pl0x?::::Beamster:: \:D/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don_Gordamio Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 Incase you forgot, back in rsc we needed to click for every single fish everytime we caught one fish we need to rightclick - cage/harpoon/bait/lure again before we could catch another. I think even though you have 2 slots less then in rsc you are still better of and most likely even fishing the fishes faster on the long term.

ember3579 Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 fishing equipment isnt supposed to be equippable.at best, it should do the same as a rubber chicken against full dragon armor with crystal shield.

Ammarid Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 with a pickaxe and a hatchet you can make a hit. but imagine killing someone with a lobsterpot or a fishing rod... it's good as it is by me.

Tbfgraphx14 Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 I like the idea of it, but then it would be a weapon, then you would even have a net or lobby cage as a weapon. That wouldnt work out. Could you imagine killing something with a lobster pot? :? Tbfgraphx14Happy to find I'm not the only one who eats glass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
