I really like the idea of upgrading the prayers, but I'm struggling to understand why they will be untradeable. These upgrades would be massive for late game players trying to complete the inferno

Edit : the poll doesn't mention anything about the scrolls being polled with untradeable or tradeable versions. I'm not an iron-man, I want to sell my loot or dupes.

Ok so which of you guys is Gimli here talking to Legolas in the newspost lol. That Tolkein inclusion was funny and I love seeing the little quips you guys put into the newsposts like this.

Pretty much all of this sounds dope as f**k not gunna lie. Really cool sounding update (especially especially especially the baby versions of Rigour and Augury), though i'll leave it to people with more imagination than me to calculate exactly how good the twinstaff will be.

One thing I'd like confirmation on though - the dual looting mechanics that favour bringing a duo partner, is it safe to assume that that's all viable with ironmen?

I love the proposed fight and loot mechanics. Does it mean Ironman will be able to duo with Main and get a loot drop provided they deal enough damage?

Let us charge the staff with 15k of each elemental runes so we can use it as all the elemental runes staff. Love the bosses and the drops. Devs cooked again. Would we need to farm keys to do these giant bosses?

Boos(es) looks great and the fight sounds interesting.

Is this supposed to use more pages than you get? I feel like there's a massive surplus of pages out there since the need for using them is low. Then we finally get a half decent use and it drops more pages??

Would deadeye and mystic vigour be considered p2p prayers? Or would f2p players also maintain that when on a f2p world? Dumb question but I feel it isn't as obvious

Why is Chivalry Defence level requirment removal being polled again? It's failed numerous times already.

This looks very nice! Really liking this concept and how the looting mechanics work!

However, in the previous blog it was mentioned that a revisit to giant and moss giant keys would be discussed together with this content. This seems to be missing. Is this an oversight or is it still in the works?

What's the reasoning behind adding another midgame trident gap filler that makes uses of elemental weaknesses when most of the time weaknesses need a blanket 50% buff over their current numbers to even come close to trident numbers, along with using wrath runes, sunfire runes, having 5 diff pieces of elemental boosting gear compared to just using a trident? All while giving up spellbook utility like thralls or vengeance or giving up scaling like heart/salt/overload or even magic potions

The concept art shows some kind of necklace along the staff, is it just for flavour or did i miss something in the blogpost?

Brandr and Eldric have been expanding their territory from the depths of Karamja Volcano and the Asgarnian Ice Dungeon respectively. Unfortunately, this expansionist streak has thrown both of them into a violent meeting in the middle

Does this mean the boss fight will be accessible from both the Asgarnian ice dungeon and Karamja volcano? Because that would mean that limpwurt suddenly has to do the inferno...

very cool proposal! My only concern is whether the update (in case of passing the poll) will be live during the Leagues, which would be a shame

Finally figured out a way to give Pures Chivalry that will actually probably pass - support pretty much everything here, looks like a good update. Gear switches was probably the main mechanic that was yet to be taught to players, so good choice to have the drop that they give be appropriate for Zulrah.

Probably the only mechanic left to be "taught" is instant death mechanics, perhaps a boss that "knocks you out" or something if you fail the mechanic rather than outright kill you, so you only lose time/supplies rather than death costs?

Duo scale baseline? I love it!
Real duo content. Please don't ever change this.

I like how the boss have different unique drop mechanics. Being able to target farm the reward you want will be nice.

While looking at giant bosses, could we make a bryo adjustment? It really needs a cooldown between sapling spawns.

It’s currently pretty discouraging to work up to a boss in free to play, and then at random fights, it so many back to back saplings that you can’t damage the boss for over a minute.

In f2p where that will drain your prayer to 0 and theres no way to restore it, it’s randomly a completely unbalanced fight at times.

New players won’t see much benefit in switching to membership if the only encounters in f2p make them think pvm is just unbalanced in os.

Thoughts on any armour piece drops that specifically provide elemental magic damage increase? Or a necklace for mage before occult or that specifically increases magic damage for fire or water?

The rewards all look pretty cool. Good to have a bridge between the strength of Eagle Eye/Mystic Might and Rigour/Augury.

The staff is also a great concept for earlier/med level players as it helps them with learning about Elemental Weaknesses as well.

And just to be clear, do the uniques come from both Bosses and the change in rewards are just with the common loot? Or is the Deadeye from 1 boss and Mystic Vigour from the other?
