agresser Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 Well i was thinking that since the arrow slot would just be like a area on your charactar like a quiver or a bag to hold your ammo, why couldn't that space be used to hold other things? Such as: A small weapon (dagger/short sword/defender) A small ranged weapon (knives/darts/shortbow) One stack of runes (my personal favorite) An extra potion A light source A rune essence pouch (small/med) A talisman (for those manly types who don't like tiaras) A God Book Another idea is that you could sacrifice both the cape and "quiver" slots for carrying and extra larger items like: A larger melee weapon (all the rest except halberds, gadderhammers, granite mauls, spears, and mjolnirs) A large ranged weapon (longbow, Karil's crossbow, crystal bow) A bigger ess pouch (large/giant) A sheild Wepons/Sheilds would appear either in a waist sheath (for larger one hand weapons) a hidden boot sheath for daggers (would be super cool!) or on the back for large 2h weapons, sheilds, and range weapons. When you weild a weapon directly from multi-slot to weapon slot, there would be a "unsheathing" animation. (can be turned off for speed purposes) Potions, runes, pouches, light sources, talismans, and books would appear as attached to the waist by means of a belt or cord/rope.\ The reason items such as food/herbs/others etc would not be able to be carried is well...think squished lobster guts all over. Not cool. Feedback please, this is my first suggestion. I've had lots of ideas so i'll probably post more if people like this one. ( i hope this hasent been posted before, at least not exactly the same, i did use search just so you know) :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackalope14 Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 I like it. It would definately help hold runes. One question though. Would there only be a select few items that you could put in the bag or would it be basically like another inventory spot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toxicologist Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 I think it should be multi-purpose, but not that multi-purpose... perhaps you could hold equipments like a "Quiver", "Rune Pouch", etc; which you can equip the respective stuff (runes, arrows) inside. It should only be for combat ammo, nothing else. Why do you resist?

Zonorhc Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 I think it's a decent idea, provided that you limit what can actually be carried so that it doesn't throw any of the trade skills out of whack.

agresser Posted June 22, 2006 Author Share Posted June 22, 2006 the only noncombat items you would wear are talismans (for men who don't like tiaras) and and a rune ess pouch (1 more ess in inventory, yay, but in the long run is faster buy a decent amount) so, not much would change in terms of tradeskills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toxicologist Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 No, it should not be able to hold Talismans. That would lessen the need to wear a Tiara. Rune essence pouch? We already have those... I was thinking you could equip a "Quiver" or a "Rune Pouch" in there. A Quiver can hold one slot of arrows, while a Rune Pouch could hold three types of runes. Why do you resist?

jwrm22 Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 no way... that you would be able to wield a wapon + shield + a crystal bow (cape slot) and runes... ^^ click my sig for my lesser ranging guide ^^jwrm22: 4816th > 99 cooking 100% f2p !1172 total! + 140mil in items.i dont play anymore... i think rs is ruined Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, when you can swing an axe, hold a shield, shoot a bow that's slung over your shoulder and wave your hands and chant to cast spells all at the same time, I'll be able to see a problem.

agresser Posted June 22, 2006 Author Share Posted June 22, 2006 no way... that you would be able to wield a wapon + shield + a crystal bow (cape slot) and runes... you're not weilding them all at once. The point is that you can save a few extra inventory spaces, by carrying something else in the space normally reserved for arrows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toxicologist Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 But that would ruin the need of Tiaras by quite a bit. Besides, I don't see any mages whining about their leg covering being favoured by women. Why do you resist?

Tiaras would still be in use because some people would opt to use a rune ess pouch in that slot instead of a talisman for efficency. See i've got this all figured out :P And as for the whining, well no i don't see that, but i certainly see lots of whining about tiaras. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toxicologist Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 I don't see why you should blow the logic just to calm down some eccentric male players.

agresser Posted June 24, 2006 Author Share Posted June 24, 2006 It's not just about the talisman thing, you know. This is an idea that would help a lot of people, and not be difficult to implement. I don't understand why you are so resistant to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toxicologist Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Mainly because it doesn't feel right to me, and also because I don't want to admit I am wrong lol. There is in truth no problem to it at all, it just doesn't feel right. Why do you resist?

thaimodz Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 For added realism, I think hanging another shield in the back to add protection efficiency while fighting against multiple enemies (Al Kharid guards, etc) would be a good idea.

Toxicologist Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 Yes, but that is starting to get almost excessive. Think about it: slinging bows on your back, multiple dagger sheaths, the ability to raise or lower your visor, to carry a bag on your back, a belt, buckler, etc... Why do you resist?

jorus2 Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 Hm, its a fair idea, but wouldn't that just be the same as saying have an extra space of inventatory? And as for a tally being carried, the whole purpose of a tiara is to save invent space by wearing it. I like the idea, but i don't agree as they can all just be carried. The only part i would like to see is the rune being able to be added. Although mages have it easy already, so giving them 1 more space for food may not be a great thing. That was a no btw :P 90 Combat 1900+ Total99 Crafting 99 Cooking 99 Firemaking99 Herblore 99 Fletching 98 Farming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agresser Posted July 1, 2006 Author Share Posted July 1, 2006 Oh for god's sake, it's like you people don't even read the posts! I'm not going through the tiara thing for the fourth time. It's not the same as a tiara! Read the reasoning behind it! AGHH *dies* For added realism, I think hanging another shield in the back to add protection efficiency while fighting against multiple enemies (Al Kharid guards, etc) would be a good idea. if that's realistic....not even going to go there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evanboy70 Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 Yes carrying a talisman, it is the same as wearing a tiara. If you save an inventory slot, then you're saving an inventory slot. If the item is equiped to your head or your quiver doesn't matter, because if you get to carry an extra ess, you win both ways. In actuallity, it would be beneficial to carry talis, which require no work at all, as you'd benefit from the defensive bonus of helms. Just because it looks different doesn't mean it is different. Its the same as a tiara. The only thing you should be able to put in the quiver is one type of rune, or one type of arrow.
