I'm pretty sure that's a typo, otherwise that's a pretty serious nerf. /u/JagexGambit ?
The post now correctly says bird nests - sorry about that!

When will you be discussing the buffs to Dragon Hunter Lance, you talked about on the Q&A yesterday?
We'll discuss that among the team today, in preparation for the revised poll blog tomorrow.
Nothing in the notes about fixing the farming guild doors? Was said to be fixed in q&a
Whoops! I'll add that in - this was included in today's changes.
Nothing about Konar btw
That'll all come in the revised poll blog tomorrow btw :)
“Following feedback on these Slayer creatures found in Mount Karuulm dungeno,”
Oops
Whoops. Thanks
Can we have some CoX QoL updates? Currently it feels very bogged down compared to ToB. Suggestions: Remove small scavs, add extra farming patches, allow us to block up to 3 rooms or guarantee up to 2 (so that we can avoid the slowest/worst rooms or guarantee the fastest/best rooms without having to operate an alt farm), add a rakeable patch next to farming patches, insta-fill all water gourds, speed up herb growth, increase the amount of secondaries dropped by scavs.
None of these changes would increase top tier raid points/hr because these actions are all handled by alts already.
I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised in the near future.

That’s bait.
I really like a lot of these changes. Are there plans to replace the doors at the farming guild with barriers or something of the sort?
Yes, this is coming very soon
Thoughts on lowering the melee defensive stats little bit on Alch hydra to make melee bit more viable option?
We’re considering this to make the lance and other melee weapons more viable
Would prefer a jar be added instead of another slayer helm recolor. Hydra buffs are not needed, but I like the shortcut.
Why not both? We haven’t tended to poll the jars POH decorations so I can see this happening.
I guess it does. My problem with it is that this would make drakes very similar to basically every other slayer creature, instead of keeping them slightly special as a high effort monster.
Maybe it's just a personal preference, but it seems more interesting to increase the reward to match the effort, rather than decrease the effort to match the rewards.
That’s fair enough, we’ll see how the poll goes. We added this particular one because we’d been hearing a lot of players say they wanted them to be less effort to fight.
Bandos + that slayer helm 😍
Right??
SO you realise that trawler is boring, slow and dead so instead of fixing that and adding improvements to it, you want to just add its only good reward to another bit of content?
I know that will pass because the vast majority of this playerbase want everything to be easy and afk and do not care about integrity but that is a shitty decision and is a bad precedent.
I get where you’re coming from. My understanding from talking to the team is that everyone would like the trawler to be made better but there hasn’t been the time. As a semi-temporary fix I thought offering the reward elsewhere at a slower rate would at least give players the choice rather than forcing them to engage with unpopular content. Personally, I’d love to see changes made to make the trawler more fun and take a different route with the rewards such as giving more fish.
We understand that with big releases come lots of new items which results in more pressure to manage bank space. While we're unable to offer increased bank space at this time, we are exploring other options. One of the suggestions we've seen includes a Seed Vault being added to the Farming Guild. If this passes, we could consider other similar storage options for certain item categories in the future.
I don't see the actual poll question for this. someone forget to add it?
The poor phrasing is my bad, I’ll make this clear tomorrow morning: we want to flesh out the design of this idea before offering it in a poll. This section was just to show we’ve acknowledged the demand.
Poll Question #10
Should the Dragonfire and Antidragonfire shields offer full protection from the Drakes' special attack?
Not a fan of this change. It will only make the task very afk without actually fixing the issue with drakes. They are currently too slow to kill while also not being rewarding enough. I'd prefer if their hp was reduced, drops improved, or just make them a very small task, like dark beasts.
This should make them more rewarding relative to the effort they take. We’re also looking to reduce their defences.
Why does the Golden tench hyperlink direct to the Fishing Trawler mini game?
Whoops! I’ll get that fixed tomorrow morning
Sigh. I can't win.
Not 100% related, but it would be awesome if we could use a small amount of points to reroll the location Konar has given us.
Edit: Thanks for my first award ever, quite unexpected :)
Nice idea
