It's good to see you responding to feedback.

I think you should really reconsider the speed at which you implement these changes.

Also I think there needs to be a discussion about the survey.

There was some pretty clear data from it and yet the team seems to have just gone off completely against what majority of respondents answered with.

I also think - it's really troubling seeing you use surveys instead of polls.

We want you to poll these kinds of things! At the very least see what the playerbase as whole wants - not a handful of people you send surveys to.

Whats your stance on sentiment vs reality? If the majority of the community feels its fine but it needs a nerf, what will happen? Example: nerf to 6h combat got greater than 75% to stay

I just saw a ton of memes, not stuff that was necessarily in bad faith. Was that during the Q&A or something?

The majority of players

can you stop saying this?

Reddit isn't the "majority', the majority is in game playing right now, there are 90k players online and currently 9k on reddit that's 10% not "the majority".

I'm looking forward to the beta worlds

Will the entire game be available in the beta worlds?

Just to clarify, will 3rd Age Range + Karil's Maintain their higher Melee defense.

The nerf is meant to be a pvp nerf (rag gear being too effective) but I think Karils (especially if they don't get nerfed) and 3rd age will have a high enough risk associated with them that it is no longer ragging.

Nerfing BP so heavily when you've built so much content around it is a big big big big mistake. Increase reqs for use or don't nerf it by ~40% damage in one go. You can't have a meta and then completely take it away when it is used in so many different areas of the game. Also is this going to be a recurring theme in OSRS? " We accidentally didn't think enough about an item when we released it, so we're now going to nerf your meta's that we've created so that we can bring in more powerful weapons in the future".

Also the face guard, again, it looks like you guys are just trying to hit the reset button and push the good equipment down so you can release new items with new content. I get power creep is a thing, but there will ALWAYS be a BIS in something regardless. And going back to my point above, you can't just hit reset and lower the stats of the equipment to make room for new equipment to come out. It will destroy the game. Is the new equipment you bring out with Raids 3...

Neitiznot Faceguard - wait why is this in the nerf table? This is one of the bis helmet. I think for the current stats its decent and not to OP. I do agree, Baslisks Knight is a tough slayer monster but I would rather see it increased higher slay level?

Second - d hide armour, I feel it lacks magic defence and is already avilable to most players. Decreasing this will force players to spend more on a decent range armour. This should remain or increased for magic defence. Everyones opinion different

Can anyone explain me the logic that changing the requirements of any of the high end pvm items does anything in terms of balance?

I literally do not see how moving rapier from 75 to 80 attack or especially twisted bow from 75 to anything has any impact on high level pvm (99.99% of the uses these items have).

Especially a twisted bow could have literally no requirement to wear and the only thing it would change is that high level pvmers can wear it on their lvl 3 alts to show off in w2 ge, since it takes hundreds of hours of purely grinding gp on a high level account to even get one, which is much more than the time it takes to get the gp for chins and actually train range.

Just seems like an excuse to open up another tier of items that will eventually be filled, which will create powercreep.

I think the neitiznot faceguard doesn't need a nerf at all. It's fine exactly where it is.

The blowpipe doesn't need THAT strong of a nerf, it's still a 3.6m weapon with upkeep costs. Maybe consider nerfing the bp or the darts, but not both?

The d'hide nerf is too big as well, with the proposed black d'hide Melee defense lower than today's green d'hide Melee defense.

Love all the tier changes and all of the other changes, especially the metal armours section. Great ideas!

Quick clarifying question u/JagexAyiza - will the blessed d'hide parts be nerfed too, or are those going to remain at current black d'hide levels?

I understand if it's not something you can discuss, but what unique effects can be added to range weapons that would make them compete with the tbow/current blowpipe, without also having excellent stats

Originally posted by TheCivilYoshi

Fine with most everything proposed except for the changes to BP. You've shown you're able to create a ranged weapon for certain cenarios where the BP is worse (DHC, Twisted Bow). Rather see scenarios that punish high attack weapons specifically like the BP than straight up nerfing it.

Worried about rebalancing the BP and inferno a little. Why not keep stats/make it more expensive to use?

What do you think about the Serpentine helm?

Blowpipe & Twisted bow

You're happy with where the tbow sits, but not where the bp sits. Is this because of the price of a tbow? It feels like you're really nerfing the bp much harder than other things.
