Thread: Poll - keep dungeoneering or replace it with a raid?

My opinion is the game has become rather ridiculous. It started as a 'medieval mmorpg' with a few kinks and turned into a cash grab, it's almost like runescape became a private server with the introduction of all the silly new items.

To properly run dungeoneering (higher) floors you need a settled team (imo) and from my experience it's kinda hard to get that going on a ps.

Also making your own style of it is way more creative, hence I voted for the second option. =)

Your point is exactly what i had in mind too, orignally back in runescape's prime time people would do more group activities and etc. Was fun to run with friends and in a runescape priv server prespective i had a feeling it would turn more into a solo content than what it was really intended for, hence i thought of making my 1st raid and introduce chaotics n etc through it, of course im planning on actually reusing all dungeoneering assets instead of it going to waste.

You would be better off getting customs made and dedicate them to a raids-like system.

The Dungeoneering items have loads of other uses anyways. Could turn them into a donator benefit where each rank can "level up" an item. Lowest rank can only make it from T1 to T40 while highest can do T1 to T99. However they would be slightly worse in effectivity. E.g. Noxious Scythe has 2458 accuracy and 2011 damage while a Primal Maul would have 2096 accuracy and 1544 damage. Same applies to tools, armours, etc. Like I said, lots of uses for them. E.g. Minigames, Slayer Rewards, Voting Rewards, Donation Rewards, and many more.

yh i guess you do have a point about not trying to use osrs items to upgrade. Orignally when i loaded rs3 content i had in mind of making a hybrid server (have rs3 and osrs mixed) but might actually be a terrible idea, orginally i just wanted 1 boss from osrs (zulrah) the rest just seemed like a rip off from rs3 anyways. With the equipment bonuses im actually keeping it pre eoc stats (like the image below) and im trying my best not have a p2w content like donators having benefits over regular players, rather want people to actually earn it in the tradional way and not pay to skip. Hence im thinking of an overall upgrade system to help prevent older content dying and not just having new bis completly replace older gear and have no use for that content.

EG. Torva is from nex a t80 power armour, and malevolent surpasses it cuz its t90 without hp boost but still beats it in stats and dps and kinda kills it off since you would rather do ROS to get malevolent which is better, So i thought of like having to make malevolent platebody you would require torva platebody (maybe break it down or something) and regualr materials to make. (my idea of a upgrade system to prevent older content from completly dying and being devalued)

bump, alot of views but no votes
