The att requirement changes on weapons have not been addressed on stream or any further blog despite 75 att builds being upset with the changes. I believe this frustration stems not from the att level changing but having to choose between being a pvm build or pk build. Has the team considered readjusting the att levels so that there are pk weapons at the same tier as scythe? For example t78 rapier/mace/blade as pvm weapons and vls as a pk weapon, t80 scythe as a pvm weapon and elder maul (with some buff) as a pk weapon. If not has there been any talk/consideration of adding a t85 pk weapon in the near future?

Any explanation why level requirment changes are needed?

Especially when they are such nonsense changes like moving rapier etc to 80att while blowpipe is 78 range and having DHCB and lance be in 2 different tiers when they are supposed to do the exact same thing and when they both high end weapons.

Some good steps in the right direction here.

I am very interested in the blowpipe midgame effects. Out of all the changes that have been discussed I think this one is the one that will ultimately have the largest impact on players as they journey and progress towards the game. This needs to be more than just a flat nerf to ranged DPS across the board with no compensation in other weapons, because that's just hammering midgame and ironman players, further widening the gulf between them and the tbow wielders.

And I really have to say that I still hate the idea that this needs to be done to open up design space for Raids 3 rewards and bosses. Raids can take players years to progress towards and master. If the blowpipe's replacement comes from a new raid it feels like it's robbing the masses to create a niche reward. That just doesn't sit right, when it means that many more hours added to our journeys.

there is still potential for it to change again.

Do you mean before the update or after? Repeatedly changing level requirements is not what the community is asking for. Please stick to them or allow us to reroll our account's attack levels.

So your not changing mele weps reqs right? That update kills my pure.

Sounds good. Any chance you will be addressing the less discussed changes like the Bonecrusher Necklace and the odd level reqs? It doesn't make sense the DHCB is going to 70 while the DHL is going to 78; they should both be either 70 or 75.

Also, a lot of Magic weapons are going to 82, which is strange since they'd be better suited for 80. For example, the Trident will be 75, Swamp Trident 78, but then Sang is going 82 despite only being slightly above the Swamp Trident. I can get why the Nightmare Staves are going 82, even if you could argue the Harm should be 85 with the Scythe, but putting so many 78s and 82s just feels out of place since levels usually end on 5s or 0s.

I apologize if this was answered previously but looking for a point of clarification on basilisk knight superiors. With the change to the special attack, can I click once and my character will fight to free himself or do I have to incessantly spam click to free myself (similar to Hespori tangling in vines)?

Hi Ayiza,

Thanks for all your hard work on this project. I can’t imagine what it must be like in your shoes right now.

Question for you regarding the stat requirement changes: would it be possible to ask the team about offering a one-time full account reset (stats, quests, bank, and all)? This could be utilized by pures and other (typically PvP) limited account builds to rebuild according to the new meta when the dust settles.

I do think the changes are excellent—all of them, every single one. This is coming from an ironman who loves to watch PvP and wilderness content. Truly, everything has been handled as best as it could be.

Thanks!

that's understandable, but if you included the information you provided in this post at the top it'd be much easier to read

Why would you even reply to this? Such a lose lose situation. Stop pretending to give a shit.

No need to apologize to me. My issue is primarily that something I spent a lot of time actively pursuing will now be inherently less legitimate. But also yes, every time I kill Vorkath for the next few months and see a 1:12 PB it's gonna upset me.

I also lose the ability to flex the pb with Runelite's chat plugin, which is unfortunate.

Btw, major props for being in the trenches. None of the criticism of this blog or the game should reflect on you as a person. Thanks.

Sorry you're taking a battering here but these nerfs are clearly not being taken very well by the community. If there was new pvm content coming very soon to fill the gap people may be more receptive.

The way it stands right now we're just going to be doing the exact same content but 30% slower which is really boring.

And now you're saying it's mostly the same? Pretty misleading...

Mod Ayiza, Dhin bulwark is too powerful in PVP because it gives the ability for players to run away from an unwanted fight? Why are you making things harder for people who don't want to fight, but still gotta do things in Wilderness? Please, propose some gear setup for me to use in Wildy after all nerfs, because I don't see alternatives. You are making Wildy alive, by letting "PVP'ers" kill players easier. Why don't you guys work on something that makes fighting in wildy against other players really worthwhile and legit instead of propagating predator and prey meta. Escaping was a thing of skill when used with correct prayers and items...
