What is the purpose of corrupted dragon weapons? Why not just use actual dragon weapons rather than their corrupted counterpart. I'm sure I am missing something.

Apologies, the blog has been amended to clarify that these would be able to be used in F2P. This is their benefit vs the actual dragon weapons - alongside not requiring the quests to complete to use them. Mainly it's a F2P thing.

Fixed, thanks.

I read the blog amd may be misunderstanding but what does this mean for the points I have already accumulated in the BH shop I do a lot of wildy slayer and have almost 7m points. Are they lost or simply restructured with the proposed changes? Like should I spend them all now?

We'd keep the old shop open for a while after the new one comes in so you can still spend your points. But yes, eventually we'll be closing it (with plenty of warning).

I still want it easy to get back on my uim if you're going to remove the old shop lol.

Figured if you diaries increased drop rate, it would be fast to get it back even from low lvl npc's like thugs or skeletons.

Ah, I see. They're pretty quick to get back from rats currently, we could make it even more so.

Seems a bit harsh for someone who could have been smited, being forced to pay 1m fee on top of losing the +1.

Hopefully this won't be too much for someone who can afford to use the weapons. Given how powerful they are, we wanted to add a drawback. It also acts as a counter-measure against players dropping the weapons to their friends or alts when they're near the end of their degredation to get 1m coins back.

Curious - Why are dagon'hai robes 70/30 instead of 70/40?

I asked the Mod who suggested them last time and that was the Def req they recalled. If it's too low, we can increase it.

Do elemental work just as regular combo runes work?

Ex: varrock teleport is 3 air 1 fire 1 law rune, or 3 smoke runes 1 law rune. Would that also use 3 omni runes or 4?

In your example, four would be used. They're not combination runes in that sense, but it does mean you could cast Varrock teleport with two inventory spaces, like you could if using a smoke rune.

I think the looting bag drop rate should scale with wilderness diary completion rather than just combat lvl.

How come? It doesn't need to be that intricate, I reckon. It's mean to be a common item that's easy to obtain anyway.

Please confirm the mechanics of the curse. How long does it last? Are you cursed when you item protect the weapon or only when you lose them as them as your +1?

The curse would last until it has been paid off to be lifted. Only losing the weapon would inflict it.

Just a clarification, would elemental runes only work while within the wilderness?

I also saw some talk about an eternal/permanent burning amulet. If some of these fail, this could be an okay place for it maybe?

Yeah, the runes would be for use in the Wilderness only. Thanks for the suggestion!

How rare are dagonhai robes? A concern of the robes during Warding's poll was that they'd be so common that they'd completely replace Ahrim's, reducing it to high alch value.

What sort of drop rate would you expect for each piece?

Dagon'hai robes should be saved for While Guthix Sleeps quest like PRE EOC, or a similar quest with the previous stats. I think it would be nice to see some new fresh robes instead, with the proposed stats :)

A fair opinion. Although there are no plans currently to release WGS or similar so that could be a long wait.

I believe that is the correct spelling of instalment (in the UK, at least, which is Old School's general spelling convention).

Hey everyone,

EDIT: This appears to have affected other services such as the GE, our team are investigating.
