@Mankedupmage i liked your gamejam suggestions conceptually- however I think you may find more success simply pushing for more types of armor rather than changing existing sets. obby, mixed hide, inq etc are all cool, why not make more glass cannon sets with lower reqs? 1/3

changing existing content is a huge huge pain point, newer content not so much. same goes for questing- changing existing quests is a hard one, but making sure new quests don't add in additional defense xp? or alternatively, just change reqs on the quest unlocks 2/3

ie, a pure can do lunar diplomacy but cannot use the spellbook at all so they can do further quest lines. or they can use the spellbook but specifically veng is locked. same for RFD and bgloves for example. similar to mm1 changes.

@JagexAsh Has there ever been significant internal discussion on breaking up drop tables more? Specifically chambers of xeric and tob. seems silly to have 12 bis items from one piece of content for example yet struggle to pass more gear when trying to release new content.

cox would be popular even if it only dropped the tbow, maul and pray scrolls, or something like that. you could then have 5+ new content updates to drop out claws, kodai, ancestral and so on.

@ATVIAssist there's a huge issue that's preventing people from connecting to WZ/MW that yall haven't been able to address thats been going on since a bit after cold war release. xitter.cf/search?q=664640&src=ty… look at all these people without any resolution. can we get an official

@ATVIAssist I've been unable to connect to MW/WZ, failing on loading profile. Xbox one X. I've hard reset modem, router and xbox, I've reset game data, cleared cache, made changes to network settings to troubleshoot described here ( support.activision.com/moder… ) with no luck. I....

made a second account and was able to play games on it. however, after relogging that account is also unable to load profile. This is after playing cold war since release, only thing that has changed.

@JagexArcane Hey, possible instead of blood/death rune packs you could just change price scaling at baby yaga, battle mage, priff... etc? I don't really get why baby yaga wants 1400 gp for her 250th stocked blood rune. If you can't fix the blood rune shop and hop meta for irons

directly at least make it so irons do not have to fight over a single stock in a single location. competing with irons for shop stock is a terrible mechanic.

@JagexAsh do you have any idea whats wrong with ticks in olm? Auto attack projectile vs hitsplats often are very desynced. Xerics aids always restore hp a tick late which messes up tick eating and means you can die

with 19 hp. And scuffed olm in general, where falling crystals hit one tick later compared to their animations, flame wall lasts a tick longer.

@JagexAsh I know you've said you don't plan to revisit CoX any time soon but next time it comes up, please look at team death penalty in masses. The only popular 2x/3x loot CCs end up having to be extremely elitist because a single death when you have say 800k points loses the

team a good 40k points (even if the person dying only had 10k). Have 50 people in the raid, 5 people die at the last part of olm? you can lose legit 30% of the teams points.

@JagexAsh Has the OSRS team ever looked at how regular (not bursting) magic works for general, non bossing PvM? It seems like magic is always a poor choice in terms of cost efficiency, dps and general training. Some suggestions:

give trident base xp. tridents xp per hour is hilariously bad and it doesn't really make much sense anymore now that you can burst specific tasks for profit+huge xp. OR buff the black mask imbue, add a big on task %magic dmg boost and give the mask a bonus to save runes on task.
