An update on this: The 100hp is implemented and will be out on Monday. The stat bonus is less of a sure thing. I got ahead of myself.

The combat council have concerns with it, especially as it pertains to buffing the max cape. They've pointed out (rightfully) that they think BIS combat equipment should come from PVM, not from skilling. We're going to discuss it further tomorrow.

Don't...buff the max cape...just buff the comp cape if people got all three klin capes...

Buffing comp is completely against the whole point of the rework.

I think it would help if we knew there would be upcoming content which will supersede the kiln capes and require more effort than kiln. Even just getting some confirmation that will be coming quite soon could help curb this if they are hesitant to add those stats "back". Or boosting the native reaper bonus which still puts kiln as BiS, but comp still the same bonus as before (not sure on the balancing here).

Currently there are no new capes with better stats in development. One of the things the rework does is allow us to do that in the future, but contrary to the rumours, we didn't rush it out because we have a cape on the way.

If the council thinks bis combat equip should come from pvm(which I agree) then there really should be a new boss for it with a challenge. Kiln isn't challenging enough to be bis cape when you look at all other content in game. Look at osrs for example with infernal cape. This is just another case of half assed updates being released. If you guys cared at all about integrity(which I know rs3 lost that), you would have released the update with atlleast a new pvm cape from challenges rather than nerfing comp and just giving kiln bis.

You're basically proposing that we delay the release of fixes until a nice matching piece of content comes along. That makes no sense to me.

Mod Jack thinks of the players as pigeonholed PVMers and Skillers, simple as that. He's simple.

You okay bud?

I'm proposing you focus development time to important updates(like this) so you can release them FINISHED AND DONE RIGHT rather than rushing it and being half assed/lazy. If its a game breaking problem, where it needs to be rushed until a proper fix comes later, different story.. When we are talking about a CAPE, that's been this way for 7 years now, theres no excuse for it to not be done right. It's an insult to the game and the community who care about the game. This has always been a problem with jagex though and the community has always complained about it.

You're saying that we should delay the release of the comp changes in order to make an essentially unrelated PVM update which would elegantly resolve a very, very minor issue which can pretty easily be solved in several other ways (including just not changing anything) which don't require the implementation of an entirely separate update.

Kind of bare tbh.
