Old School Runescape Dev Tracker

Appreciate the feedback! The discussion that takes place from this along with the survey will help to give us a better understanding. :)

This is a really good bit of feedback for the next survey we give players, thank you very much for letting us know this. In future we can probably even offer a way of ranking this so players can choose which source they want most. We'll keep this in mind for the next round of feedback with regards to ERB! :)

Point taken on board for the future. :)

Since there's no specific section for Karil's, we're asking players to put this feedback in the "Other" section for Crossbows and we'll take it on board from there. There is a line of questioning that asks "Should crossbows be stronger than they are currently?", the follow up question is "If crossbows are buffed, how should the buff be applied?" and then there's an "Other" section where we're asking players to put their feedback on Karil's specifically if you want to.

In this blog we've not said how much of a DPS loss it'd be, and the DPS loss against various creatures depends on the creature itself.

Our previous proposals did make it clear that the DPS loss was going to be significant against tanky creatures (like Jads) or when using lower-tier darts.

We did admit in this blog that the previous proposal was so flawed because it was such a drastic DPS loss, and unless you had a T-bow there wasn't really another alternative. The blowpipe would have remained the go-to weapon, but it'd be worse.

This blog has a survey which asks you about how you'd want us to go about filling this DPS-loss void.

The biggest factor for making the Inferno harder is the sets during Zuk where only having a limited time to deal DPS means just barely missing becomes more frequent and matters a lot more - and we may want to look at making tweaks specifically to those situations if necessary.

Bu...

What questions were repeating for you?

Hey there! Appreciate the feedback. The main aim of the survey is to collate the community's feedback as this Newpost does not provide our solution to the problems outlined yet. So for the points you raised about Karil's, would it be possible to ask you to pop that into the Survey we linked in the Newspost? There's no specific section for Karil's, but there is a line of questioning that asks "Should crossbows be stronger than they are currently?", the follow up question is "If crossbows are buffed, how should the buff be applied?" and then there's an "Other" section where you can put your feedback on Karil's specifically. Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us, hopefully we can work together on the best way forward. :)

Thanks for the heads up! This has been changed now. :)

Should be fixed now, logic was backwards on two Qs. Sorry about that!

We're looking into this now, tyvm for raising it to us. :)

I'll check the survey logic now, thanks for flagging

^{Ah sh*t, here we go again.}

Seriously though. The blog is intended to get you all thinking about Ranged combat generally. There's no outlandish proposals this time. And we finish up with a survey which asks how you feel about the ranged meta, the blowpipe, the T-Bow, a couple of buffs (like crystal bow etc).

Read the blog, and whether you hate the proposal (and us), like it, you're unsure, angry, confused etc. Fill the survey!

Hey there. I am so sorry this happened to you, there is absolutely no excuse for this type of behaviour.

When I flagged this to the Player Support team, we tried to find the incident but it unfortunately wasn't reported to us. This means that we would need to manually trawl through lots of data to find it and action it. The best and most efficient way for us to handle in-game harassment is through the in-game reporting system. When you use this system, we will have a record of what was said and can efficiently deal with this issue.

That said, I am sorry to hear of the toxicity you experienced - there is no excuse. Please keep reporting this to us (ideally in-game) so we can punish offenders appropriately.

I think you're going to like Poll 75! :D

Hey guys, thanks for raising this to us. It will be fixed by next week, we apologise for any inconvenience caused. Hope that gives the eels enough time to save themselves. >_<

Hiya,

Just passing on a message from one of our player support team members (who doesn't have a Reddit account at the moment.). This was an error, so apologies for that! Your name has been changed back, and you've been given a free name change, if you'd like to change your name anyway. :)
