We love this idea too and definitely haven’t forgotten it! For now it’s a case of going with something like recolours which take less time than creating new models until the art team are less busy with big projects like the Morytania expansion.

So any update on a cerb improvement to help those of us that are color blind? I still find cerb painfully difficult to do since not being allowed to use the plug-in that made it so i can accurately see what is going on.

The graphics team are planning to work this into their next sprint so with some luck, this’ll be done before the year is out.

Only thing I'm voting no on is the graceful change. I think set bonuses are an important thing to maintain.

There would still be a large set bonus.

Some really nice stuff in here! Looking forward to the poll.

Glad you like it!

Might want to add this clarification to the question before the poll goes live. I would hate to see a QOL update shot down solely because fewer than 75% of people understood the wording.

Thanks for the feedback :)

Not saying all should have been considered, but for none of them to be seems a little strange as at least one must be applicable?

This is a great list. I've made sure the suggestions reached the backlog for consideration in future poll - sorry they didn't make it into this round.

Make OSRS harder? When have u ever polled something to make the game harder, lol

Not voting something through doesnt make something harder, it maintains status quo, which means that the game is cemented, anchored on very firm principles which is what the game should be about. Not this fluid "up in the air" nonsense.

Terrible comment. And from a Jmod. Yikes.

EDIT: Thanks for the gold kind stranger!

EDIT2: Thanks again kind stranger!

Fair criticism. Sorry you didn't like the meme!

For the recoloring of the Phoenix pet, is it 1000 gnomish firelighters every time you want to change the color or 1000 to unlock that specific recolor?

E.g. I have a white pheonix pet but want to change it to red. Didn't like the color so would I have to obtain 1000 more white gnomish firelighters to change the color again?

The firelighters would be consumed.

I feel like this should be buffed, even if no one still uses it. 2% is a joke. Even 10% would still be a joke but at least make a noticeable difference.

Probably! I didn't realise it was so low until checking what the torch item actually does. I'll make a note for us to look at increasing it.

While we're messing with the charter ships can we add numbers on the destinations to select them with the keyboard and get rid of the "are you sure you want to pay" dialogue to streamline the process slightly?

Nice suggestion - thanks!

Lots of nice changes in here, I'll probably vote yes to almost everything I don't skip out of ignorance (raids, mostly).

The stuff about stews/spice though, I might vote against. I really dislike the whole mechanic and would rather have some proper boosts available than just grinding random stews/spices and hoping.

In lieu of an alternate stat boosting method (we don't have any designs or plans for one), you would vote against making the existing one nicer to use?

The dragonstone armour option C is wonderful- it no longer feels out of place, but it's unique enough that it will still stand out.

A+ work to whoever did the models.

Credit to Mod West for that one

By "storing" an infinite number of spices you mean that you'll have to collect them and place them into storage still, right?

Yes

Fair enough. Is there a different reward you'd like to see for that milestone?

@/u/JagexGambit - Would it be possible to implement ranked choice or approval voting for future A/B/C polls? The current approach, which is first-past-the-post, has the potential to lead to some poor outcomes.

The dragonstone armour poll, for example, suffers from the spoiler effect. Even if 66% of the playerbase wanted the design to be changed, it could still fail if the vote was split 34/33/33.

This was brought up during the Elves polls, which had the same problem but ultimately didn't make a difference because of the overwhelming demand for a different elf design.

We've played with the idea of alternate voting systems including the ones you mention. Internal discussion about the polling system generally is still ongoing so no change just yet. For the Dragonstone armour poll, that one will simply be decided by whichever gets the most votes rather than having to get 75% on any of the options. That'd be insanely unlikely.

Noted :)

Hi Gambit, thanks for polling the prayer reordering again given it was a near-miss.

If I can throw in my 2 cents, having prayer reordering is super valuable as a PKer who does both pure/main bridding as I can keep muscle memory for my range/mage consistent across PKing. I really hope this passes (for selfish reasons). I feel like if this poll fails, it detriments the PKers who don't use dubious clients because their competitors still will - the team have acknowledged that plugins such as these are virtually undetectable atm.

Also for what it's worth, it's already on the unacceptable plugins list. That's why there was a recently increased demand for it.

It seemed right to repoll given the the extremely close margin last time plus the recent demand for the reasons you describe. If it fails again, I could see it being one of the things revisited when we have a renewed approach to polling PvP content since this affects PvP more than PvM.

Not all interfaces need to be the exact same. Sure, interfaces for crafting items should be in-line, but unique interfaces like this one should stay. Otherwise we're just going to have everything be a brown interface, which is extremely boring. It doesn't even help in this instance, as who is ever going to be buying multiples of the rewards from this shop? (Nobody goes there to buy thousands of runes)

Fair enough! If enough people agree with you, the change won't go through.

Could you look at making these ToB changes scale with team size? These issues are absolutely infuriating in a solo and only slightly annoying in larger teams. Splashing freezes in a solo also has a significantly higher impact than in groups and these changes won't help because no one takes that kind of mage bonus into solo tob.

I'll make a note and see about scaling for team size. Do you have some suggested figures?

"Reorders, moves, or resizes prayers or spells" is already on the list of banned features. Which is why we've removed it. So either 1) we can readd it to RL or 2) /u/FunEnabled should be banned for rule-breaking

Ah, so it is! Thanks Adam. If this passes a poll, I expect it to be removed from the list in that case.
