Mind linking it? I am curious
Using a scout and player alarm and still dying is the true talent
gm pvpcord
54 thumbs down is wild
Still in the early stages of a pvp build. Is zerker still viable or just go for a pure?
i have a similar question, is a baby pure still considered one of the best ways to learn wildy pk?
am almost done building one, just need to get ranged 85 now
(hp will be a bit overleveled, likely looking at 66 cb here)
I can see the argument where it’s kind of in a gray area. It definitely has the ability to scout for you, but I guess I define scouting differently than jaggy
Zerkers are fun. Shoot for 60 atk to start imo 
I think you have me blocked, but I’d get higher str before going to wild for more KO potential. 85 str & range & I would full send
i unblocked you a while ago, i hella overreacted. bad day etc. we good as far as im concerned
been kinda itching to but felt like i need to have a "perfect" build to start cause im so noob
That’s fair, I’m not the best at that either when building a pk acc tbf. I normally go a bit too early. That’s also why most of my builds always end up being meds tanks or mains 
But if you plan on hunting bots/pvmers to start, you don’t necessarily need a perfect acc
Just enough dps to kill 
Thank you I haven’t seen too much information for them
They’ve kinda been overhyped by the 50 def accs with the moons armor
med seems like something i wanna end up at eventually, once im better. just trying to keep risk low now cause im gonna plank a fuck ton and probably forget protect item haha
whered you recommend someone with my stats go for hunting bots/pvmers? thats p much exactly what i wanna do for now anyway 😆
This may surprise you, but I actually appreciate the def on a higher lvl for learning. Pures you are 1 def & wearing a trash bag for armor
BUT! Not to discourage you, it is A LOT cheaper to gear a pure.
I’d hunt lower rev caves, under 30. Go to the “unpopular” spots.
If that’s dead / boring / bots are ass to KO, zombie pirates
yeah its really just the cost and risk atm. have a decent main with 1.2b bank but i dont wanna lose even 10m a death or something
id say like 500-750k risk max atm without the +1 would be good
That’ll get you plenty of fire power as a pure
If you don't have a 1 def pure I'd recommend starting there
Then decide if you want a zerk/moons/tank/med
Thank you
Don't go above 60 attack. Like teal mentioned it's better than 50.
Personally I wouldn't take a 1 def pure or zerk/moons above 60 att
Tanks and meds to 75 is fine
Does the hit point play a big factor? A few guides mention splashing to keep the hit point lower
hp gives you combat lvls, it really depends if you are shooting for a specific cb lvl or not
If you're not a very good pker, you should definitely get high HP, otherwise you'll die very easily. Low hp builds are very difficult to play, leave that for very experienced pkers
you kinda do want 94 hp asap because it is the point at which brews will heal +16 per sip, which is kinda huge
Nice thank you
Build your account as if it will be 99 hp.
Thank you
unless you are building some kind of novelty account
but generally you want to build it as if it will be maxed some day
60 att 99 att 1 def, 99 hp, 99 range, 99 mage, 63 prayer is 84 cmb
That what I’ve been seeing on build guides
Ranged tank supremacy
75/70/99 77 99/99
Yeah those are nice but feels limited in spec options
1 def pures are just so much fun to singles NH on
Normies having a meltdown in #old-school because of the membership hikes. They don’t even deal with what we gotta 
If they are going to raise prices let us play on any character we have on jagex account but limit to one character at a time. Add in higher tiered memberships that allow 2,3,4 etc simultaneous logins
Just brought up that price hikes are sooo bad for pvp in game updates lol
Bonds gonna hit like 20m+ and you gotta buy like 4 of them every two weeks
Anything above 60 attack puts you in brackets where builds with defence are superior
Voids and zerks start to get good around 91 combat and you need to avoid that on a pure
Seems like quite the headache to cater to the majority of the game
It kinda hurts to say but once in a while I get a little happy seeing the rest of the community get treated the way we do as pkers where jagex just plugs their ears and says nothing lol
Well said
Have to assume based on Jagex data they didn't feel the increase would hurt them enough in cancelled memberships to hold back. Had to replace the revenue lost from mtx.
Going to suck when I have to renew my med and pures annual sub
Just be like me and don’t 
But then I can't pk on them unless I bond
TBC 3.0 is the way, could buy retail too if I even cared to try with all the money saved
Barely anyone out there anyway just wait til we get an update in like 2031
I like to just get yearly and forget about it
We’ll be SO back
I'm definitely not starting a new iron
Yeah I feel like irons have never been in a more boring state than rn
pkers are not affected by membership prices because we all make enough money to use bonds
sucks to be a brokie pvmer

While true it doesn’t make spending an extra like 20% on bonds anymore enjoyable
Huh?
It also kills noob brackets cuz ur not pking that much on a lvl 60 baby pure anyway, like i used to make a bond in like 2.5 hours back when they released pking out at green dragons and i SUCKED
My main has grandfather rate so doesn't impact me anyways
Only my alts
I'd still rather spend the irl money over sinking 400m osrs gp into bonds for a years membership
Yeah alts are gonna shaft ppl even more now lol
Eh nothing to use gp on ingame anyways, absolutely not giving jagex real money for the abysmal product they been putting out lol
if you aren't trash at pking you have so many additional funds you can't do anything with anyway that it makes no difference
besides make more alts
You are the godfather of pking
Y'all got Odablock level banks or something?
One day I wanna be on your lvl.
is rot not giving you a split
How much are your sets you pk in?
when you mace someone for their 50k gear at scorpia
Must be in bowfa Virtus with that kind of bank?
gmaul dhides dwarf helm and some other shit
probably not more than 2m usually i dont risk shit
It’s not about RoT giving splits. It’s about being out of touch lol

Correct, but it doesn’t mean that it’s fun to spend more on bonds just cuz jigglex needs more money in their pocket
There are nooobs who cannot afford to pk for profit
Teal is about to get bombarded thank you for the content
Now I gotta get back out there and skulltrick another noob for his gear he just bought with bonds, so I can go buy more bonds
It seems you forget that saying all pkers have endless cash lol
Or risk enough they need to pk 50 other people to replace one death
I don't care how good you are sometimes rng happens and you die
Impossible I’ve never died (on the main)
The baits died a heffffty number of times 
veng pking is very rng based so i limit my risk and dont really need good gear for smites on my build
But if your running around in 2m risk I understand not needing to worry about gp
Probably not doing very many return fights though
is return fight slang for fighting the same sweat over again
Can go positive KD in a return fight and still lose money because the keys stay on the ground lol
It's something clans do
I don't pk for money
i dont either but i like smite fighting
always the potential of seeing something unexpected pop up when they die
Should try better sets
and them raging at spawn afterwards
in my usual setup im risking bally and thats about it
W rag venge fighting, not my cuppa tea but I see the vision
Why rag them at spawn though? I'd rather be respectful and fight the person again in the future
i dont
i just imagine them raging at spawn after they lose their claws
I'll fight the same person NHing multiple times trying to have someone come out on top. If I win or lose I want to be able to fight them again in the future. Kind of feels like being toxic to them would hinder that
Oh you imagine them raging
I missread
Yeah feels good to get a smite
Sometimes toxic terry does need to come out tho 
Paying for raids content which I never do 
same people want you to not be able to do it on your pure lmao
It is actually wild that they keep raising the price and people somehow want to gatekeep MORE content lmao
ironmen with sub 1.8k totals and no relevant kc on anything or quiver or infernal think they're going to be invited into a multi person raid
i dont think pures should be able to do the new raid /shrug/
whose gonna tell them that the level 80 pure with tbow has a better chance of being picked
they should remove pvp in general from revs
in fact the entire rev caves should be removed
and put a chaos elly spawn every 20 square² in the wilderness
Imo I think its totally okay if theyre locked out of it, I dont do them anyway 😄
and this version deletes your food so you can't stop it from unequiping your items
make it rot your food like the slugs in morytania
oh okay thanks
Man’s gonna have to relevel in classic tbc to be able to even find me to do somethin abt it
what yall think bond prices will settle at?
is there anything that prevents you from getting hit yourself when you use zaryte bow spec with ruby bolts
Far too much to be worth playing the game rn
yeah i had purchased a year last summer(?), but prob wont renew unless wilderness improves
Traitor
The pures go in the raid or revs gets the hammer
put the raid in the rev caves
Lmfaooo
Can only do so many PvP from scratches
They will put the Raid in rev caves, but it's going to cost $15 to get in.
It’s kinda rough I feel bad for pvp creators cuz there’s legit nothing to do, you fight the same fights day in and out even if you were to try and go out there, it’s boring to watch and I can’t imagine its fun to do lol
Yeah it's no surprise they've had to try different things
Going out in the same set fighting the same people just isn't going to generate the same views
Streamer paradise wildy is dead? Who would’ve guessed
If they had gotten their way they would’ve killed multi too a couple months ago
Goofy ahh short sited noobs
Rant over Ty
Bring back the sparc mac tribe
i aint doing it again. done got all the legendaries and parsed. im outtie XD
The bolts won’t work with rcb & I’d suggest maybe 50 snare sacks. You tend to splash a lot with standard spellbook & even moreso as a pure
The last thing you wanna do is run out of snares!
Otherwise, you are ready to game gamer
I love seeing ppl’s inventory setups. Always so much variety for what works for ppl & I love to see it
ive just copied it from some video tbh and changed it a tiny bit (like downgrading from dragon crossbow to rcb, i dont wanna risk that much yet lol)
Don’t blame ya 
should i use diamond (e) or the dragonfire ones then
Dragonfires for sure
They are made with rune bolts
Diamond e’s are made with addy
You prolly know that bit but always interesting when ppl don’t
yup, just wasnt sure which ones are stronger when you include the effect
not something i really had to think about before 
Rev cave meta for pures were diamond e’s, most times you were going up against mains
Back when it was multi
Or maybe it wasn’t meta and I was still a turbo noob 
(I still am)
Looks good other than the bolts. Personally I'd bring 3 restore 1 sanfew. If you find you are running out of food in fights drop another manta for 8 brews
At your combat level I'd pk at low level revs
Youll make a decent amount gp just from their 100k rev fee
Plus drops and ether
youd replace a manta with a sanfew?
I’d suggest one of the brews personally, 7 is quite a bit for starting out 
super dumb/noob question - whats the sanfew for?
Anti venom/poison
Could drop San few & just bring a venom++
But sanfew is both a restore & poison heal
So best of both
Also you’ll likely see some conflicting advice with your brews, this is where everyone’s own style or personal preferences really shine
would you bring fewer brews mostly to save gp for supplies or cause noobs (like me
) wont know how to properly heal with em
Hmm a mix of both(?) more that sipping brews can get tough when you’re on the ropes. You have plenty of combo eats, so just save them for when you reallllly need them & focus sipping brews when you just need a bit more health to feel comfy
do you try to maximize the brew heals
like, do you drink 3 then 1 restore
or just 1 brew 1 restore to top up
Depends on the situation tbh
Too many variables to say for certain imo
At a max main lvl you’re constantly sipping brews & restores not worried about the ratio
But that’s like, we are both in max
4 rest/sanfew 8 brews is my pref
i'll try this and see how it feels
The extra sanfew lets you restore more often after brewing
So you aren't super worried about brew 3 sips one restore
Brews are good because they don't delay your next attack like hard food. On a pure though you do want more hard food for combo eats because you will take more damage and need to double eat more often
6 brews is good tho
For a baby pure
Didn’t rly think about the extra rest. Kinda figured it was just for poison, but that makes sense 
Yeah sanfew for poison but 4 rest feels nice so I can sip before 3 brews. 8 brews requires at least 3 but doesn't leave much flexibility
I feel that. My setup is basically the same no matter what acc or if it’s singles / multi. Always got my stam & and 2 dose anti venom++ on me

Not as big of a deal since he’s on normals and only needs to cast charge like once per min or whatever
But ye on ancients or when using surges it’s kinda comfy having excess restore doses
why once per minute, do you lose the effect when you brew?
Nah it's on a timer
As long as you don't brew your mage past 60 you are fine
Only need it at 85 for TB and 80 for charge
Surge and ancients, restoring is more important to be able to cast the best spell
That's why a lot of pures will take surge and zammy flames if using toxic staff
If brewed down cast zammy flames if not cast fire surge
i dont think ive ever clicked so poorly xd
maybe i should just lms for a bit, that was embarrassing. had like half my inventory left too. just forgot what to click
literally forgot how to use a mouse
Layout is not great tbh
im open for suggestions. im as fresh as they come
yeah doing one up with your gear to send you
Happens! Shakes are normal
don’t beat yourself up too much
"brain shakes" was more of an issue. i had no idea what i should click
That’s fair too
other than brew ig
downgear robes, ma2 cape, and boots
make sure vial smash is off
this way you can build muscle memory on the area to click for brew/restore/hard food
how you had it you need to look and find your food before eating
keep your inventory together, the random brew is for triple eat manta, brew, karam
otherwise you sip brew between your bolts to keep your hp high entire fight
there is no such thing as safing in an nh fight
you want full health if not overbrewed
is it a good idea (for the beginning) to just stay in ranged gear and bolt and use the mage switch only for tb/snare
think all the options i had were a bit overwhelming probably
as a starter? 
oh
i best stick to multi
yer, thats the habit that bringing a mage spell builds
practice clicking your staff switch after every bolt
just conveinent that baragge does both
so you can do a two way into mage when you want
i'd also say learning with dds is easier than learning with gmaul
kind of rough gmaul without a spec bar on your staff and bow
you want multiple styles to do the most dps off prayer. u can def pk w/ just snare/tb, ranged, and your spec. ive done it on normals before. but you are going to spend a lot of time bolting on prayer which reduces your kill chance
kind of rough in general switching everything + prayers
feel like gmaul might be the least difficult thing
it doesnt help either in lms you cant pk w/ flames of zammy 
yeah i was thinking how nice it'd be if there was a safe minigame to practice with my exact setup and just click
w302 white portal
don't take a robe switch then
idk how active it is w/ nhers these days
easiest way to do some mage DPS when new is to have an accursed sceptre as your +1, then you want a DDS to go along it instead of granite maul: Accursed sceptre you just click target shoot powered staff
hes 50 att
i get why he is tho
i respect it fk 50 atk
low lvl baby pure
yeah it sounded like baby pure was the way to learn pking
oh yeah sure, for low lvl baby pures the 50 attack makes sense for a while
until higher lvl
i dont particularly care about the bracket, i just wanna get my feet wet and not lose millions right away
but if theres a better way to learn, im all for it
flames of zammy may be old tech now that the accursed sceptre exists
DDS is the most fun and it's a lot easier to use than Gmaul (also crazy cheap..)
get 85 range to match your 85 magic
you won't gain combat lvls
outside what ever hp xp you get
cannon
yeah 72 would be fine
cannon would cost me like 20m to get to ranged 85, didnt seem super worth it for a temporary benefit. am i wrong about that?
its nto temporary benefit
lvls are forever 
unless u r 13 year old me and have 98 rc & 99 rc cape on your pre eoc acc
i mean i figured its temporary because hp would eventually level anyway, so wouldnt matter if i leveled ranged traditionally

see how many range lvls you can gain before getting a cmb lvl
the way cmb is calculated is based on the higher of mage/range or 75% of att/str combined
math might not be perfect there
(im gonna miss being this nooby and i will cringe when i look back at my questions today some day xd)
on the att/str part
the same questions everyone has tbf
you will do the big own one day
and i will pog
so what im getting is
get attack 60, fuck the gmaul.
also get 85 strength + range
dds is probably more fun factor since u can spam it but gmaul seems more broken op to me
but focus on 85 range
gmaul at your cmb can one shot people with an arrow double maul
i ruined my 50 atk 99 str pure for 60 in the end tbh
would you have recommended a gmauler to me if i came here with no pk account yet and asking about "whats the best way to get into it"
like if we put the clock to 0
no
i'd say get 60 att if you were building your first pure
but if you can already time an arrow double maul than you good
i can not xd
i'd suggest what u r doing rn tbh. dabble w/ 50, see how you manage, consider staying 50 for eternity w. just a gmaul, and then decide if you wanna go 60

most ppl will go 60 bc eternity with a gmaul is boring
60 att means you can take dcb for your +1
just to verify - there's no other account type thats easier and cheap to learn on, right? (if you want to do wildy pk, IE bots and pvmers and ig the occasional enemy pker)
60 attack is THE play for a total noob
i think the 1 def part is a massive learning curve. if you can learn with 1 def, you'll be fine on other accs.
but with a maxed main lets say, you can still go out in a cheap set & have sooo much more firepower. idk, im torn tbh lol
i think learning on a pure dds is best
yeah but you'll need at least an ags on a main
i think for cheap fuck off 90k sets, yes, a 1 def is good to start to the journey
pures force you to learn overheads
main's and meds can cheat a bit as long as they are in their tank
be in a set that you can be comfortable dieing in
alot
Yeah could avoid some hp lvls to keep combat lower.
appreciate the advice and patience lads. guess i'll go hit the crab for a few days and then return with more questions about setup etc
and for now go back to beating up duke cause thats nice and comfy and doesnt work my brain
np fella. happy to help
arkan is honestly really solid for learning, A little annoying how volatile it is but it lets you learn some lessons the hard way since you only lose 250k if you get smited
I lost my arkan a while back and haven’t bothered getting it back yet 😅 perdu needs to import some. Along with ghostly robes.
Also if i’m in budget setup i prefer tome of fire as +1
Yeah I have it on my 60 att pure and use it when I fight zerks
I made multiple accs for this reason, i have a 50/60/65/75 attack
Were all happy to help anytime g
You could splash your mage to avoid approx 4 hp lvls. Its not much but will get u either 70,... or 71,... could be a little bit lower if you want to spend gp to cannon range.
Not too low since hp is crucial too
Speaking of 60 atck….would be nice to be able to stack multiples the Arkan blade and Anchor in the bank like you can with the Colossal blade, needs to make that a suggestion
How do you all as fellow pvpers feel about price increasing when we still arent getting updates lol
I feel a little better since honestly nobody is getting any real content lately, every week they only drop like super minor bug fixes. So misery loves company I suppose. I unsubbed a while back because of the sheer lack of content, but the rise in price definitely doesn’t make me wanna come back any more lol
Yea im jw if theres any difference in opinion between the ppl here that pvm and pvp and the ones that only pvp
If anything else I’d think they’d be closer than ever, they’re currently kinda getting the pvp treatment (albeit kinda light) since there hasn’t been any real content updates in like 4-5 months
most people who absolutely hate pvp are saying they are not getting more content worth the extra $1 increase to base price because "no one plays dmm and leagues, sailing sucks and raids is not relevant to most players"
The players not doing the content are also the same ones asking for more content, what a fire combination
but the thing is that people are actually just mad about 12month bundle discount being cut to be closer with standard discount rates for mmos
Like complaining there is no content for pvm/players by ignoring all the big updates and jagex is not announcing every small update in summit roadmap. For pvp it is different but saying there is no content coming in general just feels so wrong
if you're a pvper there hasnt been any content lol
im not wasting $60 a month to resub my 4 alts to afk a cow boss im sry
but that is just a waste of time and money
and outside of cow boss have there even been any updates since sailing release? Which was 2 weeks of afk salvaging then nothing else
Yeah I would think twice if I want to bond/memb up to pick up p2p pking again. I mostly play f2p. Im in the category minority though.
P2p is just a way to train accounts and if an acc is needed, then I would still reconsider bonding or so
agreed, and with a team that is this large, we should have more than 1 content update every like 3-4 months
it is true there hasnt been that much bigger updates in last 3-4 months. dmm and leagues take a lot of development time and they are working on sailing stuff, raids and grandmaster quest
literally all of which i could not possibly care less about lol, but agreed they waste an insane amount of time on temp game modes and its starting to ruin the main game
GM quest is like what maybe 5-6 hours of content on release, and none of the rewards are actually interesting to use for pvpers so its just kinda a wasted update
Not quite true, the spec wep is gonna be nasty, like a lower tier korasi
And 60 att
oh i thought it was 75
the new spec weapon will be pretty mixed opinions. technically more guaranteed damage if it successfully rolls 3-4 hits but slightly lower max hit
If temp game modes are actually taking excessive amounts of time to develop and make good, I would be completely fine with them shelving that shit and focusing on the actual game lmao
end/start of year was a lot of sailing focus too. like next week they are adding the ship combat rework
eoc on water 
This should be up there with claws for spec right?
especially for DMM just reerun old ones, theyre totally fine, but literally all pvp dev time in the past like 3-4 years has gone solely to dmm
Maybe they should remove polling, it holds them back too much in the main game.
I don’t think i’ve ever cared about anything they polled
Well if i remember correctly im comparing it to korasi cus its a guaranteed hit, with some other roll to determine damage
4 accuracy checks with each one adding 20% damage if passed
Yea so i dont think itll be 4 hit splats like claws. I think itll be 1 hit with all 4 accuracy rolls at once if that makes sense
I could be way off tho, but i think thatll def shake up pure meta
I think so as well, esp if it's paired with an antler guard
does it require the quest line to use? cuz cant pures not do the quest lol
No
phew
It's a tradeable drop
right but so is a d mace lol
Hmm
True
synapse etc
I hope they don't add in a new 60 att spec weapon and lock it behind a quest for mains
I think theres a diff one thats quest reward thats 50 attack req
Would be good for zerks and meds I guess
I def read about 2 diff spec weps
The upgraded staff right?
Hang on lemme see if i can find the ss
K
One item is quest reward, i wouldnt imagine theyd lock both @granite sphinx
It’s a 2h
Oh is the 60 att one also?
Yeah the 60att flail/kisten or something
Hmm
Some have already said this already & I noticed it too, I just find the difference between the 2 “communities” so interesting. PvP is forgotten about, yet you have diehards that go out everyday looking for content in the wild, on multiple accs! We’ve gone through the same price hikes, and I’m sure some have called it quits (like my boy squints) because of the lack of updates, but there are still ppl who keep multiple accs bonded in spite of the lack of content
Why do ppl think PvPers are the hard ones to please? It’s the rest of the game that has been pampered
fr i lasted a LONG time with no content coming out lol
like 4 years of nothing just making my own content lol
amen.
imagine if PvP had the pampering the rest of the game gets and the rest of the game was left neglected
thats how runescape would have gone without the wilderness removal in december 2007
ruined my christmas that did.... 😄 missed out on so many whip pks and stuff 😄 😄
whats more ironic is that the entire PvP content community [youtube pvp creators] created the OSRS idea and forced jagex's hand
yet PvP gets neglected
why is inflation so bad in OSRS ... safe pvm ensuring bot's do whatever to kill the economy
simple really.
If they had expanded the wilderness east into the sea and north and added content there like they have done in the rest of the game inflation would be nowhere near as bad
I always say osrs wouldn't exist without the pvp community
they are busy 'fixing' the combat in the version of the game that doesnt even have pvp 😭
dont worry osrs is getting ship combat changes next week
its the sad truth, but unfortunately theyve kinda forgotten that the past 4-5 years
Free trade and OSRS
Do devs want pking to die you guys think?
well DMM gave us loot keys right, so its not all bad. but i havent been impressed by much else that they have done since.
wilderness battlepass for cosmetics
What the meta meta NH set for rev caves on a med with 80 attack rn ?
Been seeing a lot of purging staffs and 3 item Bofa with Hali
3 price increases since removal of multi revs without a single pvp update other than BH
just give us back multi revs
Serpentine helm
Fury Necklace
Crystal body
Crystal legs
Barrows gloves
Aranea boots
Ava’s assembler
Berserker ring (i)
Bow of Faerdhinen
Toxic staff of the dead
Occult necklace
Ahrim’s robetop
Ahrim’s robeskirt
Voidwaker
Noxious halberd
Something like this ?
I dont think devs or even shareholders want pvp to die. They've tried for a really long time to make osrs pvp into esports. Problem is wildy pvp has too many problems.
Does anyone else feel like the minigame spell added to all spell books threw off their barrage muscle memory? Even using the rl plugin to reorder it similar to how it was it still feels off to me.. or am I trippin
No one wants esports
Esports in MMOs does not work
Look at the state of wow pvp, it’s impossible for anyone to get into
Just give us good, fun PvP (multi revs!!!!)
The investors want esports because they see stuff like League of Legends, Overwatch previously, Smash tournaments, etc, etc and they see all the money it makes.
I reckon that's why the majority of pvp dev time has been spent on minigames and temp game modes.
Yeah probably
I think events like dmm all stars will be way more successful
For an esports game it needs to be relatively simple enough to pick up and play. Anyone can download league of legends and play. Imagine putting a complete beginner in Lms or even worse, bounty hunter/dmm. they’d have an awful time
For sure, the barrier to entry is way too high.
Don't bother with occult switch, take ma2 instead of assembler, lightbearer, mages book, dfs
Do people actually use mages book?
I thought book of darkness was a cheaper similar in stats alternative
mages book probably only for pures who want to risk a lot. mages book adds 3.5m risk for +2% mage dmg, +5 mage accuracy and +15 magic defense over book of darkness
costs more than wow now. Next step is giving me unlimited chars on the acc at a time off one membership far as i'm concerned.
Mages book is great
90% of situations it’s better than elidinis ward
In a max set on a med they do for sure
I mean if you want to risk fortified ward that's obviously better
He's gonna run around pking in Bowfa max set but take a book of darkness instead of mages book to save 3m?
since when do pures run bowfa 
if you have access to crystal armor you have enough defence to equip better and cheaper shield slot for mage
He asked advice on a med max set
malediction ward under half the price, same %dmg, same magic defence with melee defences on top, -3 mage att. but yeah if the extra 3 mage att is worth the increased risk you can take it
The only upgrades you can make to it are going to cost you 26m, or 117m. The mage accuracy is important to catch freezes
And I'd argue Wyvern shield isn't an upgrade just gives more defense
so ahrim also isnt upgrade over bluemoon with same logic
Could sub robe top yeah Ahrims skirts cheaper though
Price is pretty much same for tops
You should rarely be outside your tank anyways that's why defense stats aren't as important in your mage gear. Definitely not for an extra 23m
Devs I don’t think do, whoever actually steers the direction of content within osrs definitely does
Also gm pvpcord
I think you’re right but for the wrong reason, I don’t think they’re really shooting for an “esports” scene, I’d at least pray they know enough to know that wouldn’t work. But dmm definitely does bring a huge sub bump due to it being probably the best money maker in the entire game. Super easy to sub an alt and afk make gp for the main game
Nah, otherwise they wouldn't have put time and work into it for 10 years
It's just that no one seems to know how to do fix PvP properly.
It's just not that great of a pvp game compared to other options.
it would be way more fun if not for the looming threat of people automatic gear switches and whatnot
Every game has cheaters
true, and this one does seem to have chilled out since my last stint playing it
i feel like it was much worse in that regard in like 20-21
Yeah when I stopped clienters were actually pretty rare in the Wildy
Idk, there’s something about pvp clanning in osrs that is hard to replicate anywhere else. Fact of the matter is, this game could have a great PvP aspect if the Devs didn’t put themselves in “the chair in the corner of the hotel room”, thanks to pampering the majority
P Servers are alive today, and sure you can do your 6 Jad challenge or w/e on them, but ppl pay $ for cosmetics in a p server that revolves around PVP. Yet jaggy can’t capitalize on the same? It’s asinine to think as a company they wouldn’t want to, especially when their IP is being used to do so
Agreed, people clearly do like the concept of the Wildy, and at this point I think some of those servers are more active than the actual Wildy as far as pkers go lol
I’d argue it’s been that way for years
I bet some would argue since before singles+, but I think before removal of singles things were still “ok”
Idk as a business idk how you could let a snot nose knock off run your shit lmfao
ashes of creation even though albeit a scammer creator had insanely active pvp too. Turns out high risk of losing all your stuff on you is appealing to the more hardcore players.
You mean degen RWTers can figure out a PvP game mode & profit off of it…?
Yeah it confuses me, but even if jagex does go after them and shuts them down, I think osrs is in such a bad state that I don’t think that many of those people would even come back
Fair point. You’d probably just give them even more of a reason to hate the main game
For me it’s just like, when you take an area and change everything that people like about it, in order to appeal to people who just don’t like it in the first place, obviously nobody is gonna be happy about it lol
I think the real problem is Jagex breaks stuff about it, and then doesn't address the new problems until 7 years later
No matter what, good or bad update, it's something that needs constant work and attention and iteration
Bad things need to be tried, seen they are bad, and then iterated on and improved, not forgotten for 5 years.
I also question whether or not they have a clear design direction for what the Wildy should be like.
Absolutely the case
They also clearly do not have a design direction in mind, and I think that’s the biggest reason we’ve gotten no updates
They don’t know and don’t want to spend the time figuring it out, singles+ has caused so many problems with every update they could put there now is basically the loot piñata system or dead content. They also need to make mechanics to prevent teleing I.e elder chaos Druids or it just gets botted to death
The community also tends to vote against wilderness updates, making them less likely to present them in the first place.
this is a day 1 thing tbh
the wilderness existing at all is because of players being sick of what existed before, pvp everywhere
In current times yeah, but that’s manly come about from them just leaving it to die for like a decade lol
evening
bloody windy outside
motorway busy as hell with speed limits put in
just another day up norf
just another day seeing the same beautiful faces in the chat @granite sphinx @tropic root @winged thorn @glacial gate

Ty. Should I do infernal instead of MA2 cape ?
I win most my LMS games so I think it’s time to start practicing in rev caves. I’ll most likely dodge pkers until I feel like I’m really ready
Infernal is good, that's a tough one because splashing in an NH fight is rough. Could bring it as a one way switch only when doing melees
Like if your tank is crystal body/legs, dfs, tsod, serp helm you could do inferno cape Hally or inferno cape voidwaker
If your new to pking in a max set I wouldn't start with bowfa because you will want to be equipping staff and shield after every bowfa hit
Start smaller with
Serp helm
Karils top/skirt
Aranea boots
Tsod
Mages book/DFS
Ma2 cape
DCB
Fury
Lightbearer
Voidwaker/AGS
That's still going to be 40m+ if you are pking with standards take tome of fire instead of mages book
I actually am not bringing Bofa yet until I’m really really confident. I’m not new more so just returning. Are people bringing mage cape for switch or just relying on the slow air time entangle ?
40m risk is fine in singles. If you know how to triple eat and escape it’s rare to die I think I’ve died once in singles since returning. And the guy hit max max on me
I’ll save purging staff and Bofa for much later but the accuracy for both weapons is really nice I will say
Yeah there are lots of downgrades you can look at but prices right now aren't bad. Half your risk comes from the TSOD and AGS.
As far as cosmetics go, ive been saying the last 3 years that there should be a pk pet. A ghost. At a 1/3k drop rate, works for singles or multi, and it comes with a built in transmog where its name changes to the last player you killed
That's a good one lol
But others can't really see the name could they
Do you get it from killing players, or...?
Yea lol and others would absolutely be able to see the name 😂 would be hella fun lol
I'm going to PK Zezima and then I will never PK again.
Or Woox or anyone famous, then I will quit PKing 100%
And I will absolutely just farm 3000 kills from a friend or an alt
does soulja boy still stream ts
I forgot he did but that's pretty hilarious
Yea idk how to implement boosting it, i just think it would be a hilarious addition. @winged thorn as a multi clanner wouldnt it be hilarious to wipe the opps and your whole clan have their ghosts following you when you flame in edge
Just make it drop 1/1k unique players if that's possible
That would be sick lmao. Don’t give it a clog so the cloggers can’t complain
Spaghetti code we’d end up getting max cash from Hans or something crazy 
Would be sweet tho lmfao
Tbh id make it a clog, then the ppl that hardcore complain cus scared will start doing. Not all ofc but a lot will realize how much fun and then boom, we have 5k new pkers
why is confliction gauntlet crashing
raids 4 announced to be crush based probably reason, then again they said potential reward would be elemental spell buffing items which should add use cases to them too
crashed like 10m in less than a week
doom drops have always varied a lot in price but seems to dip harder now, could be more people farming or someone started bot farm
always chance that people are selling at lower price to panic buy bonds before leagues start 
as if its not bad enough that im 2x dry for boots now the cloths I keep getting are also worth less
tormented bracelet also gone down almost 2m
bonds going up, everything else goes down
but stuff people buy with bond money first naturally
no one buying scythes with bond money, that thing going up in price 
you would be shocked
limited time game modes have been incredible to me.
To bad main game is incredibly chalked.
im skilling and playing other games ffs
🦀 $15 🦀
Time to buy kills xD
Hey, we all know people will find a way around it
But it is a fun idea indeed
Just, if people boost kills, that's more non-PKer voting in polls
Also, I'm sure some would absolutely sell having a rare name on the ghost

You can pipe up in here but not react to my big pk pics, cool
morning
G M
feels like we've been waiting a lifetime for updates ritzy
Funny thing is we’ve already had multi revs, and all it takes is just adding multi back to the cave, and we’re still having to beg every day!
Like cmon jagex
insane really
been waiting for a really good update since they first implemented the pj timer 🙁
Ayo whatre some kind of items you guys would like to see added to game? I was thinking about it last night i think more treads themed items would be dope. Bis tribrid type stuff like an ammy or ring
the updatesss the game needs now it needed 10years ago @granite sphinx
how mad is that
😄
price of membership will still keep going up too
we're all paying for the upkeep of EoC ... an update that should have never happened
f2p needs a lease of life @wide crater
Time for essence of finality
Blood fury, occult, anguish, torture. Recharged with blood shards but works with all 3 styles
What if we had a ring that improved curse spells, would people use them? Xd
I feel like making people restore before they want to is pretty strong, but maybe the dps trade off isn’t big enough
Would need to add sacks for it. Otherwise your wasting inventory spaces on curses
True, or make rune pouches cheaper
I mean currently even with rune pouch it would suck. If your on standards you'd have mud runes, smoke runes(air), wrath runes, nature's. That's already 4 slots.
You’d probably use smoke staff
So to take curses you'd need to bring soul runes instead of a hard food or brew
just bring back pre-eoc at thiss point
No one in max is taking smoke staff over tsod
far better game
So it would be pretty niche for pures maybe or budget singles set on mains etc
Ah yeah assuming 75attack
Give mud staff the magic% bonus 🙂
Sack pouch: can put spell sacks into it 😆
Sack for your sacks
Sack sack
Wilderness clue scroll reward
This is a good idea, introduce blood barrage sacks as well
Maybe not wilderness clue scroll reward though.
Bis tribrid everything so we don’t have to switch gear so cringe also collision ring that means ppl can’t walk thru us or under us that’d fix PvP also remove freezes
Idm risking parch to take blood barrage tbf
Fr tho I don’t think bis tribrid anything is good for PvP health, I mean look at how atlatl has affected pking and it’s only range+str 😂
Treads are kinda okay cuz u risk whatever else u take
Need to keep majority of switches but I think having boots,gloves,ring,amulet is fine
Am just not sure simplifying switches and adding damage at the same time is a good idea
We’re capped at 99/115 hp so every bit of damage increase makes things more cringe
Like fero gloves torm and z vambs combined would give +4 str +5% magic damage and +2 ranged str
Idk why that would be a good thing when it involves 0 extra effort to get that dmg
I disagree with that tbh. Dding is crucial for regaining momentum with a chance to heal or hit off pray
Yes but these would be pretty expensive, only the 1% maxxers would be using them while skulled. But i do feel having tribrid options would encourage more people to fight back bc they dont have to gear switch much.
Doesn't need to be bis combined and just sticking to barrows as the hybrid imo
An upgraded hybrid blood fury would be nice though
Combined amulet slot would be fine
Typically people NHing only take 3-4 armour switches. Body/Top/shield and maybe cape or helm
Tbh wouldn’t be against them adding pvp armours to main game rather than just bounty hunter, as long as they can just be used in PvP
Anything more than that is usually only someone rushing
PvP gear outside BH would be cool. But should only be the high def ones
Maybe only wildy though not pvm
Add it as a drop from new wildy content
Yeah having BIS PvP gear come from within the wilderness would be really good. If it's only usable inside the wildy than there's no reason for irons to be upset by it
Yeah it seems logical right
And all the gear is already there and made
They could even add a cool new multi boss or multi monsters (…..) that drops them
I think have the def requirements be something north of 70 though. Should only be for mains/meds
You kind of already have gear like that for pures and zerks with elder chaos and dagon'hai
Tbh I think more bis tribrid items will come into the game naturally
Yeah I just don't like the idea of no armour switches at all
Amulets, rings etc fine but we already have elite void for minimal switch armour
Yea that would be solid, my logic was basically noobs at revs would use it, get a couple antis and be like oh hey this shits fun, and start learning pvp. I shouldnt have compared to treads, better compaison would be antler guard. Bis tribrid but not overpowering bis in each style
Yeah I could see it coming in the form of a ring, an ammy, or gloves
Yeah antler guard is good too because it has negative defense
So it's risk vs reward
If we get to the point where you can do end game pvm just switching your wep, I think even the rest of the game will have a conniption fit
Yea my bad on the bad comparison, high end pvp should still require switching, i just meant lower tier gear that has bonuses in all styles
Blood fury for all styles though would be sick
Before i started learning, the actual switches werent an issue, but when my inventory got scattered i was cooked
Add ancient warrior to a wildy pvm drop that only works in wildy
Could even be like barrows but in the wildy. We have to kill each warrior to loot their chest
New players trying to pvp with gear starting at bottom of inventory while having barbarian vial smashing enabled 
New armor & gear would be cool. I really wish they’d save the time & energy of designing new shit & just allow bh items into the wild
Agreed
just make standard sacks and ancient sacks atp
But id rather have multi revs
Imagine all the NH ppl who avoid bh because it’s not their speed
They’d full send to crater for vls or morrigans stick
Would help both parties involved 
Yh I was trolling
They can fight back alrdy imo the only thing that sucks is having to bring ether bracelet/salve ammy switches
I mean kinda alrdy a thing no? Glory/fury/b gloves/shadows or lightbearer/araneas
Ya fair point, i forgot about araneas too tbh, but add like a range str bonus like +2 or something to fury. Ring of shadows covers pretty well for ring slot ig as well. Scratch my idea LOL. Well go with scotts, just combine blood fury w anguish and occult 😂
Ah fair some people are dead set on it
Ya the ppl who have never asked “how do I defend dd”
😂
But ye I think adding all these items just make it harder for ppl who are pvming or aren’t super experienced
@granite sphinx likes to point out new pj timer allows ppl to run around in 1b sets with ancestral masori oathplate etc
And adding more and more damage worsens outgearing
Like when u can get barraged 40s, 82 ags, 46 maul etc
Ofc outgearing only patches a certain skill gap but it still patches it
Idk we want ppl to try pking but they’re gna be put off when they die from a 140 dmg stack or they’re worried about risking a bit more cuz they can get gear checked by Virtus ward or whatevs
Yea by the same token tho i almost never run into ppl in oathplate ancestral or like literal bis. Theyre so few and far between, 99% of pkers i see in singles places besides revs are in bloodbark and blessed hides.
That's why they need to only add a pj timer if your opponent was skulled.
its not really oathplate its bofa/virtus
is really the max nh setup rn, theres also the guys ancestral/oathplate harm orb rushing pvmers
bowfa virtus is brutal yh crazy dps
Then add another 5% magic dmg and +5 ranged str with crystal multiplier
:/
That’s stuff u gotta think about when u say like “combine occult fury and anguish”
I got cooked by some ahker yesterday in blood bark / blessed hide and I was wearing better gear. Down to my last brew tho
Almost no worth bringing super good gear when you can kill all rev bots with mediocre gear. And on top of that you can get a super sweat who can kill you if you aren’t a very good pkers
But with a good setup you basically kill most pvm player immediately and if you have the agility they never ever escape. So 300-900k keys damn near every world
check out Rargh/Links recent zombie challannege, the PVP is hilarious and needs to be a game mode
If that gets on you just focus on overheads keep health high and wait until your freeze timer is up, freeze and escape around a tree or something. You've got a few seconds of freeze immunity when your freeze wears off
Start with a small set and only upgrade with the loot you pk
This lvl 89 gap has been the bane of me
Easier said than done but the point is the ammy idea gives 2 barrage max hits, bowfa max hits, and lets em heal off their dps
Yeah but it's not an increase
Because people already use anguish and occult?
Very few ppl are pking with anguish? And occult is v niche welfare set item
Everyone is pking in fury/blood fury tho
0 slots taken up
Yeah occult switch isn't super uncommon
At least not with pures zerks and voiders
Mains it's uncommon for sure
Could balance it a bit more so it's not as strong as occult and anguish
Dude people are legitimately making the argument theyd be fine if members covered more than one character but you can only log into one at a time. Am i the only one that thinks that would be DRASTIV
they need to have a ban appeal system besides spamming discord and twitter
log into one at a time would be healthy i think but you need to have a way to move wealth between characters at the bare minimum
there can be benefits to doing a system where ur friends are shared across accounts too for convenience
Deadman Mode Feedback https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQEVsV1br08
Deadman Mode this year was honestly great. Jagex improved a lot and the game stayed active until the final days, which is a big win.
But after playing the season and talking to many other players, there are still some things that could make the next Deadman Mode even better.
In this video I talk about:
• A Deadman tutor for new players
• S...
some great takes and hard truths here.
we could also have those changes marked on the wiki lol.
true, didnt even think about that.
Not that i care if i get pkd while pvming but imagine if pvm randy gets killef cus he cant have a scout outside artio anymore
better that than making everybody who doesnt do it feel stupid for not doing it
if u always had the option to have alts multilogged at no extra cost, it would promote it and i think it detracts alot from the game
Yea but from a singles pking perspective i agree, from a multi clanner perspective i dont. So many teams avoid fights with other pkers, there wouldnt be any action i think. So hard to find mfs lmao
If that got fixed i wouldmt care i think
for sure
in other mmos we just have hotspots show up on the ingame map when players die, and a thing on our UI that tells us what zone is active
basically no trouble to find where the action is. cant say the same for osrs 
Im not familiar with other mmos tbh. Is it just one world map? Cus that’s really the big issue. Most multi clans have enough people to scatter and find the action on one world but not 300
yea no worlds to deal with, im most familiar with warhammer online specifically
its purely a large scale pvp game, very few ppl are doing anything besides pvp
I feel that. I do wish this game was a little more balanced on the rng side of things
I just died to a guy for a good chunk. I anti pkd and smoked him. 3k0 attempts 60% chance and up 100 damage. He got 1 k0 chance at 4% and hit a 73 lmfao
But i got a staff right after so whatever ig 😂
ranced
yeah rng sucks when they didnt even really setup a KO or combo beforehand
but on the other hand guaranteed dmg is far too predictable too
i was watching oda doing 10X or whatever odds, and one guy is just spamming abby dagger specs to try his luck to rance at like a couple % constantly 
look at kill pics loooool he just attacked again
Nice video! The only thing I’m willing to push back against is: requiring certain risk thresholds to pk takes away most of the pking that would happen in the first couple of days
& that’s some of the most fun pking in dmm imo, running around in dorgy bow etc
Regardless, thanks for taking the time to make a vid 
So I do think they should have membership be for all your characters and you can pay to have additional logins. Base membership is 1 login at a time, 2, 3, etc give us a discount on additional logins we purchase
I'm sure jagex could figure out how to code it and they can make it so this option is only available if you have a jagex account. Would incentivise more people to move over to jagex accounts.
Id be fine with paying a bit more as long as i can login on multiple still. Not even just scouting purposes, even for fights or building accounts. Imagine being on your main and finding a pure i bugatti loot and having to switch whole ass jagex launchers which was some ppls ideas lol
Yeah I like playing on 2-3 at a time but would love the ability to change which ones I play on. I pay for members on a pure, med and main so I have a wide spread of combat levels I can hit
Would be nice to instead play an iron but still have the option to hop on the others periodically if I wanted
I usually do too but i been grinding to max so cut mems to the pure. I pay for med and main, and ill just bond my alts if i have a specific reason to need them
Yeah I may switch to bonds when my current years run out on the med and pure
Price is just too high now to justify paying for them all the time
I tried the iron life and ive gotten so bored of pvm that i just couldnt do it lmao. Having to grind all kinds of shit just to have convenience of teleporting wasnt it for me
Yh im prolly gonna cut mems on the med too. Ill keep paying for my main tho cus i always use it
Yeah to each their own it's a nice change of pace and I do enjoy a bit of pvm here and there to take a break from pvp
Grandfather rate on main I'll never cancel that one
Yea ill still do a lil bit. I do enjoy wildy bosses cus i can still anti pk but ill go send some dt2 bosses on occasion. 1-200 kc tho and im back in wild lolol
Yeah send some raids with the boys then back to the wildy
They just need to add some more pvm options in the wildy
I wish theyd have done the scorpia rework. Boss is way too shit for multi
In my original script I was gonna say inbracket 3 and above, idk why I left that out. But i completely agree with you.
My only issue with rag was how easy it was to stack someone out with javs and no risk
True
sigil of adroid was main reason people could do rag javs and stack even people in high defence gear
risking 10 morrigans javs and black dhide to spec with 80% accuracy on tank armor while low hp
I think it’s supposed to make it easy for noobs learning to pk but it’s really just taken advantage of by the long time pkers
Nothing wrong with either imo but you’ll always have the latter
Yeah even forcing certain loot value can be cheesed through rune pouches etc
i got hit by naked morrigans javelins (they didnt even wear dhide) so many times while running around in 400 ranged def 
What bracket did you play?
final bracket
Very anecdotal: I didn’t really experience any rag like that in the final bracket. Would’ve thought it was lower brackets
when doing zulrah there was always someone trying to dharok bomb or javelin spec you
i just tanked the dharok users with sotd spec, was too lazy to tab out since only had to survive 1 freeze every zulrah kill
Nothing wrong with dh bombing
Pking in the temporary pk game mode? Yuck!
yeah a lot of people just hated it since they could onehit you with rng after using 100% accuracy dscim on you
staff of the death spec made it not a risk though
I played through the first three brackets and b3 had the most raggers but might have been just the timing I was in that bracket
most of the ppl complaining about the OP items are just pvm folk though
Doing the adroit method I mean
Not even actually trying to fight anyone with it etc, they don’t really get to see how broken it may or may not be
I agree that pk in dmm should be closer to the main game
But idk, if you just don’t wanna be blasted as a pvmer, idk what to say lol
I feel like it should be different,give me stupid crazy DPS that I'd never see main game
well even pkers who were standing near bank got 1 hit by people using script to take full dh and gmaul and do automatic dh into double gmaul in 1-2 ticks
I don’t necessarily wanna see that kinda firepower in the main game… but imagine you singles pk in dmm with sigils & then try it with the same little lvl 70 pure in the main game
But I personally don't like long bank fights
The 2 definitely don’t translate
I miss rampage 
Yeah but a pker will just complain about the client, not the sigils
Yeah no one likes a clienter
You gotta be really bad at the game to resort to clienting. Absolutely shameless and bad for the health of PvP and integrity of the game.
Finale wise I think they could do a better job with the faction play. If you keep it to multi, I think you allow ppl to sign up with their favorite in game god, or allow them to go faction-less. This gives players the chance to either: stick to the clan they played with the whole time, or join up with “team saradomin” or w/e & go into the finale with them
And then idk make buffs for those in the finale zone that are actually doing dps so it encourages you to fight & not just sip brews
I think signup with a god of their choice is good but balance teams if they are unbalanced
As much as I want to be with my clan I think it's better overall if solo people have an opportunity to participate
For sure, wouldn’t want 500 ppl on team zammy fighting poor team Guthix with 50
My issue with singles is it takes forever & every time it’s awful
Mhmm, could expand the gods to include 4 instead of 2
I think something as simple as changing the final area to OG singles would be fine
Like not singles+
That would be crazy lol
Oh I misread, you were talking about a multi final but as a solo player, not necessarily a single finale
The colo area was so small man, there’s so many better options
Mhmm
Yeah use the CWA maps
Final area in the classic clan wars map would’ve been sick
All the turrets and shit ppl can go up on
Would’ve been way more interesting than a box
Yeah that would be lol
I took a half year break from rs. Came back, membered my 1 def pure and went to rev caves and found it's completely dead now. Where do you go for pvp/loot in the wild on a ~80cb account now that all the bots and players killing the bots seem to have vanished?
The only people still in rev caves are seemingly med and mains, most speaking Spanish 
w305 enclave usually has some sweaty brids, but otherwise jagex kinda killed the wildy for the most part 🙁
Yeah I'm not good enough to fight the unemployed megasweats lol
I figured as much, sad times...
yeah its in a pretty brutal state for you then in that case sadly : /
Guess I'm just cancelling sub and waiting for updates. Crazy to see the ripple effect of a massive bot banwave lol
im in this same boat sadly, cancelled memberships and just playing other games, but praying jagex will update the game one day
I was contemplating getting hard wildy Diaries on that 1 def to hunt the solo wildy bosses
you could always join a multi clan thats worth af. Otherwise like honestly gl lol.
But I cba getting 68 hunter on the off chance it's not dead
Yeah I don't enjoy multi pking
So rip 
the solo bosses are on and off camped by bots.
One wave is destroyed takes about a month then another wave is there nonstop
Yeah so content there is seasonal at best
Definitely
No thanks. Thx for making me not waste all that time lol
Honestly its not worth brother lol
Im just skilling my main up and playing other games too lol... seems a lot of us are
Hop around rev orks you will find some risking ether and cave fees
rev hill giant/demon spot is good for lower levels actually
Ive been pking there recently and you can get 1m kills pretty steady
me to, i need some1 to @ me when something actually happens in this game that isnt just a minor bug fix
i didnt even think about that
im boutta make a pure just to suck in real time and let yall know its just as dead.
Nah it's not bad, I run into other pkers of various skill level and gear.
LVL 80s and 90s with webweaver
It's most likely a gold farm they all have the same gear
Masori helm and body
theres to many damn worlds
soon enough we'll have even more.
We just keep world bloating and doing zilch about the wilderness gap its creating.
I mean game as a whole rn is pretty down bad, we're at 137k at noon on a weekend vs where it was around 200k mid morning on a weekday lol
just hasnt been much going on lately with osrs
Gotta factor in all the bots that got nuked recently
I'd rather see the game at 140k than 200k with 60k bots
Idk man I'd rather have anything in the wild than a complete no man's land
If you remove all the prey, the predators also naturally leave, so there's really nothing left in the wild in terms of 'natural' encounters
Bots left unchecked though will push out real players unable to find open worlds
the issue with bots is that bots made actual pvmers leave wilderness when there were no free world after hopping 50+ times every single day. So now that bots are getting nuked the players have not started to come back to wilderness bosses
The Rev bots were also bad at mass reporting anyone who pked them opening players up to potential false bands
Yeah this 💯 , the bots also crash the value of drops devaluing the reward part of risk vs reward
i tried to start voidwaker grind on iron few times but i didnt have 20kc for the peek option for singles bosses and every world always had bot in them and didnt want to scout on main 
Diary reqs and jagex removing the legacy java client has been good to reduce wildy bots
yeah havent tried it recently, so cannot say how it is now
I'd expect regular pvmers to be out there doing revs by now but there's only a few south Americans making their bread in there. Over half the worlds at south Ogres is occupied, usually by 100+s. Where is the dedicated rev farming alts to replace all the bots that were removed?
West demons is also completely dead. Like 1 player every 15 worlds or so. That place used to be lower lvl rev farmers almost every single world.
Prices aren't going up either because they killed supply but also demand at the same time, so the incentive for humans to farm revs isn't higher than when it was swamped by bots.
Craws bow went from 18 to 14m in the past half year...
And with the depletion of all these rev farmers and in general wildy pvm, there's less pkers hunting the bots, which in turn causes less pkers hunting those opportunistic botkilling pkers in return
Vicious cycle 
We need new pvm content in the wildy to bring the price of rev weapons and ether back up
Gotta add Ancient Warriors bosses to wildy, format it like Barrows or moons. Loot a chest after killing them that drops a variant of their weapons and armour that can only be used in the wildy. Add new blighted supplies like brews, combat and ranging pots.
Blighted stams and antivenoms too. Yeah I agree with you.
Idk if adding more wildy-only gear to wildly content is the way though. Ur really keeping it a closed ecosystem so when you mess with supply then you also mess with demand (banwaves).
Yeah you could do it similar to rev weapons where it has a base stat however if used in wildy it is buffed
The target audience would be pkers and wildy pvm. Not pvm outside of the wildy
wtf PvPcord popped off today
Yeah it's pretty much dead. The wilderness can only survive so long without any updates to it and we're at the end stages of it just being completely dead. The same pvp hotspots of altar and rev caves are starting to die out completely. It's too repetitive and boring.
I'm suspecting 2026 will be another year without a single pvp update.
Good luck getting that to pass a poll
At this point PvP updates should be considered game integrity updates
Or balancing changes
I consider revenant weapons probably one of the best wilderness updates in osrs. It made the majority of people risk 200-300k at a minimum because of the reward the weapons provided. A massive increase to DPS and better efficiency when doing wilderness pvm/bossing.
We need another update of that scale for wilderness skilling. Some type of chargeable item for skilling tools, like axes or pickaxes that makes resource gathering quick. Why would anyone skill in the wilderness when you can skill in guilds with zero risk and a passive level boost.
Rev weapons are a great example of a risk vs reward update done correctly.
when they came out i didnt wanna use one because i didnt have the capital to lose. Once i pked my own ether i took it out there and it was a wrap lol.
the weapons are great but the overall incentive to go INTO the wild is kinda gone no? anyone with a decent acc can just go TOA experts which anyone with a few days of practice can spam and make more, 0 risk
in the end stuff like revs is just a money maker, and if it makes less money than other pretty accessible content then why would non-pkers go into the wild
the reward isn't great enough for most people to take the risk for
but getting anything past a poll to increase that will enrage the pve community and they far outsize the wildy enjoyers, so gg
to anti pk the pkers that think they have the upper hand 😛
Also it has to be integrity changes or pvp only voters.
yea you can't fix the wildy with anything that has to go through a poll
but then it comes with the risk of Jagex fumbling like they did with BH
Rev skilling tools would be sick
Pickaxe, axe, harpoon/lobster box
In general though I don't see me wanting to pk skillers lol but would like to pk the noobs pking skillers
That's the entire point many of us have been sharing in here, and in previous discords before this. If the wilderness isn't risk vs reward, then what exactly is the point of the wilderness? What is it's identity? If it's not risk vs reward, what is the point of wilderness levels? The deeper you go, the riskier it gets but the less rewarded or incentivized you are of going deeper? It doesn't make sense. I've literally seen people say to remove all pvm and skilling from the wilderness and just have it pvp. If they did that, it wouldn't make any sense to have wilderness levels because nothing would incentivize anyone to go to deep wild like mage bank or anywhere else.
The wilderness is the way it is today because of lack of updates, it's not any players fault or any fault of pvpers. It just never kept up with modernization of the wider game and thus died because of it
shit if they riskin 100k+ in ether each kill call me skiller mcbob cause im eatin
to bad skilling doesnt put you in combat and theyll just auto tele or logout 1 tick
Yep that's another issue
the deeper you go the worse gp gets have you saw scorpia LOL
I know
that shit should drop tbows
Wilderness levels already don't make any sense. Tbh
50+ wilderness should have some of the most enticing, dynamic and lucrative updates in the entire wilderness but it doesn't.
Everything hovers around 30 wilderness.
it should be true ffa 50+ fuck 50+ make it just unlimited up there
If you're at the deepest part of the wilderness with no quick teleporting out, players 50 combat levels above your current level can attack you, escaping is difficult, why the heck is it the least rewarding out there. Makes no sense.
Scorpia is such a sad waste of space. Waste of a great area that they could have put something else there
all theyd have to do is update the drop table and it could be a hotspot. the boss has a cool mechanic of freezing the babies and pulling the boss away or just full dpsing through w/ the sceptre/occult etc.
Nah, they'd have to do a full rework of the boss imo. If you really think about it, scorpia is the riskiest wilderness boss in the game due to it's location. It is the deepest part in the whole wilderness, surrounded by multi. You are stuck in combat and if a team gets on you, you have no choice but to face tank the entire team through multi for a good amount of time. It should be changed to respect those factors. Imagine if they changed the entire scorpia fight to be more challenging, but also changed its drop table to be 6M-10M per hour. How active do you think scorpia would be then? How packed would scorpia be?
It would be the most active spot in the wilderness.
Maybe 10M per hour is too much but you get my point. Even 6M per hour would be really good
Scorpia is so mechanically boring.
Anything worth doing would be botted to shit due to low requirements
How would bots do in a multi combat zone with no auto logging out, required to face tank teams. I'd say it could be regulated pretty well by pkers
Low reqs are the only appeal of the wilderness but this helps exactly nobody because any real player has quests and skills done
Who says scorpia even needs to be low requirements anyway
This discourages real players more than bots
Bots don't care if they get piled
Not my point, it shouldnt
50+ content should be for level 126s
If content in the game can be considered "end game content" why does the wilderness have to be different? Imagine a wilderness update that required mandatory Wilderness elite diary completed but it dropped a gauranteed 6M+ gp per hour. Do you think it would be dead content?
I don't think so
Because those are the only people that pk there and it makes no sense to make content for level 90 mains so they can get ganked by max mains
What if it was content designed for 120+ mains
His Lordship covered how it worked like that back in the day in the wilderness revival video
All wilderness bosses right now are content for people with like level 70 stats
It should
Exactly. Why not make an end game rewarding piece of content
Thats not easily bottable
And throw it in 50+ wild
I wonder how it would do
They've never ever done that before in rs history
Bots do doom so difficulty doesn't discourage that
And tob
yeah making content around bots is really stupid. Why do we have a raid you can solo if people don't want bots??
Why is it only in pvp where people moan about bots in the content. Maybe its because we as pkers are the only ones who actually deal with them 🤔
Doom requires high combat stats and gear and some quests. Wilderness elite diary requires: 85 mining, 90 smithing, 85 fishing, 84 thieving, 90 cooking, shall I go on?
The whole botting arguement is tiny brain js.
There are tons of pures and meds that pk at scorpia:resource arena
But yes technically if you want to put content in level 50 multi it should be designed for level 120+ and impossible to solo
Botting shouldn't be the main argument for not designing content. The entire game is botted, stop.
I have scorpia greenlogged it's almost entirely max mains and in teams of 3 or 4
And would you say the reward justified the risk?
No it's the worst boss in the game
Yep.
Shit loot high risk
Scorpia could be moved and thrown in 25 wilderness and replaced with something more mechanically interesting and rewarding.
Waste of opportunity
It's loot is like level 10 singles
You make more money an hour killing anything in slayer dungeon on task
Make scorpia a funny low wild boss for noobs
😮💨
in enough risk perhaps
Not meant to be I guess...
People are so quick to say an update would fail without even trying.
They've never even really tried.
Shouldve just at least done the rework they initially proposed. That still wouldve at least had a peak in activity
They don't want time to be spend on the wilderness
I can count "risk vs reward" updates since 2013 osrs on my 2 hands. There's so little
I couldn't find a single pvp content creator aside from Odablock live on twitch/kick an hour ago. And oda was giving away bonds on an f2p world at the GE. Is it really that bad??
Jfc man lol
Yes
its been years since any real pvp update
Last pvp update was Zombie pirates released 10 April 2024
In terms of wilderness update
🙂
technically it iss but come on
He box’s idea for the resource area was solid* (at least the skilling portion of it)
Someone said make the agil course loose 25-50 laps from leavening instead of reset to encourage ppl to come back
Seen some decent ideas for 50+ wilderness
Before zombie pirates was released it was wildy boss rework (Callisto, venenatic, vetion) which was 25 january 2023
Haven't had anything since
Multi has been that dry since 2023
ye i would say the wildy bosses rework was a good update so like 3+ years without any wildy update
if we have 3+ years without any real pvm update the game would die too
ngl zombie pirates was lit when it first came out. to bad its in level 1 wilderness and people just hop the ditch away
Low level wilderness updates dont work. Hard pill for some people to swallow
Pirates were solid but I can see more ppl wanting 30+ yah..
I hate how people look at zombie pirates and wildy boss rework and say that jagex tried all they could and that lucrative pvm updates don't work at all. No I think they were just not designed well.
im honestly down for some wilderness expansion.
I want 50+ wilderness updates. I'm tired of wilderness updates being around 30 wilderness. Everything is 30 wilderness. Chaos altar, revenants, black chinchompas, multi bosses. They've never experimented with a really good pvm money maker past the wilderness gate way up north. Literally never
what about jagex keep adding more and more worlds? we have like 200 p2p worlds? (wild guess)
Yeah that's a great idea lol
Pirates and the boss rework were pretty solid tho…..
But yah deeper wilderness needs that same update/change/rework whatever
Have you guys ever been to the wilderness volcano in 54 wilderness? It's a really cool looking area and it's a massive amount of space. It's just not used for ANYTHING. You go there for 2 seconds to make a ward or do a clue scroll. Move the area to make wards at the lava near mage bank, remove that clue scroll step, and add purpose to that wilderness volcano. Add a boss there, or add some monsters, add something....
its really barren
It makes no sense. Yet again
So many things about the wilderness make no sense.
Its super outdated things that they can change.
Yah, always thought mod soffans idea for a big ass dragon there was tight
what do you guys think about limiting wilderness acces to like 100 worlds instead of 200 worlds? might be a wild idea, just thinking out loud
Or near, idk ppl act like ideas have to be insanely polished
