fix the crystal binding rod and mushroomy bag

[barren dock]

The fact neither of this level with training the skill on anything like the other items do is such an utter lack of design and lazy as hell. there is no reason these shouldnt be able to level their item level in the runespan and safecracking respectedly. the fact the crystal hammer and such levels from both smtihing and smelting bars is why these two need to be fixed. this is just pure insanity and lazy dev design by not doing them this way in the first place. fix it please!

the leveling of the tools is so inconsistent for these two items as well which is why they need to fix them to match the other skills tools

I'll be realistic; what your suggesting realistically sounds like Crystal Hammer needs fixed more then the other 2;

Crystal Hammer realistically shouldn't gain levels via Smelting, its not utilized at all in Smelting. Its simply Illogical.

In regards to Binding Rod; I guess I somewhat can understand this one for Runespan, but realistically Runespan is a terrible way to train Runecrafting anymore; its strictly for the Trim achievement, otherwise pretty much dead and not even enjoyable by any means nor great XP in regards to what can be achieved by doing proper runecrafting.
This minigame honestly needs completely reworked entirely.

The Thieving Mushroom Bag; it makes sense entirely that it doesn't work for Safecracking, however I absolutely agree that Safe cracking should have an equipable tool that can be benefited via Invention imo.

no because its not just the crystal hammer. i can level the rod o matic and crystal by afk fishing at swarms

the reality is if the other 3 tools are that way these tools should be too it makes no damn sense why we cant jsut train rcing and theiving to level them like the other tools

hell firemaking box even levels at the citadel doing the citadel plot

so if the other tools level via other methods in the skills so should rcing and thieving its just lazy dev design to not do it that way

[wary thistle]

again what I am saying is these tools shouldn't be operating in that manner.

not that they don't.

[barren dock]

so ur saying the rod and bag should level via safe cracking and runespan?

sorry its a bit late here so im confused by what ur saying

[wary thistle]

i'm suggesting that the rod I understand should; but I am saying these other tools realistically shouldn't (with exception of Rod of matic I understand it working in replacement to Fishing Net, but Crystal Fishing rod shouldn't)

realistically; I'm just saying it should make logical sense when things are leveling based on actually being used; not how they currently operate.

[barren dock]

either way they also need to fix the slowness of the leveling of tools too it takes nearly 4 times as long as leveling armor and weapons even during dxp and with the xp boosting thing from invention

[wary thistle]

I absolutely agree with that; its a bit absurd how slow the tools are to level.
