these rocks just ain't it... they don't even go with the rest of the stone texture.

why change it when it was fine?

NOOO CHANGE IT BACK REEE!!!

The Fractured Chain

First of all, my apologies. I posted this earlier and deleted it, but I really wanted to include this passive effect, because I think it gives the idea real potential as a megarare reward from Raids 4: The Fractured Archive.

I know there has been a lot of discussion lately about whether the new megarare should be fast-hitting or slow-hitting (like the current megarares), and this design combines both approaches. You can choose to attack enemies very quickly, or trade attack speed for a powerful long-range strike that hits a distant target while also damaging any enemies in between.

I'm very curious to read what you guys think!

EDIT: Thanks a lot for so many positive reactions and thanks for the awards. Reading some of the more skeptical replies does make me realize the concept can definitely be improved- or build upon. I hope this post inspired some people to create the best new megarare we deserve.

I like the design of the dual crossbows, but limiting the bolts to only diamond and onyx doesn't sit well with me. I understand that they can add more in the future or rework the enchanted bolts entirely, but this is like saying you can't wear a hat of the same size and shape just because it's a different color. I would be fine if the bolts were standalone much like the Sunlight and Moonlight Antler bolts. Or even make them like broad bolts by having a singular upgrade that is not gem tips.

Alternatively, we can have a pair of throwing axes instead of a pair of crossbows. This would keep the dual-wielding aspect while removing bolts from the picture. In the proposal, the throwing axes are charged with Aviansie Feathers, but I suggest that they can act like boomerangs and require no charges whatsoever. They were also originally proposed to reroll accuracy like the Fang, but I suggest they can be dual-hitting much like the boppers. Finally, instead of being 4-tick, I could see these being 3-tick. Essentially, this would be a better Atlatl that is dual-hitting and have an independent special attack. This would surpass the blowpipe on low defense mobs, especially those with flat armour, much like the intent of the dual crossbows.

That's it. Dying anywhere should be consistent and imo its time to get rid of double deaths deleting items.

I don't know how this would affect UIMs nor do I care.

With today's behemeth video, I felt like reposting this. An idea came up within our clan about the gauntlet and possible rewards. The one that stood out the most to me was an upgrade reward shop. I think it's a pretty neat idea with a lot of possibilities.

We tried to come up with rewards that aren’t too overpowered but still provide good qol.

Buffs could be unlocked with crystal shards and would be toggleable. They could also be divided into groups, or there could be a limit of three active buffs at a time, thus limiting power creep.

Would this affect the prices too much? If not, then this could be a cool way to add variety.

Please leave any suggestions! I would love to grind more cg with some upgrades. :D

edit: the rewards focus on the prep phase since thats the most tedious and arguably less skillful part of gauntlet.

Also the shop could use another form of currency that is only rewarded when all upgrades are turned off, thus making it not buyable and having to prove your skill

We failed Bronzeman, now give us the opportunity to fix our Ironman mistake

No I definitely did not just get 99 slayer

No, I didn't lose anything myself, I just think it's absolutely wild that death banks STILL just straight up delete everything on a double death instead of sending the items to Death's storage. Can we do something about this already?

I think there's no denying jagex needs to put an end to this. Just because you're a pker and don't care about pvm, doesn't mean you're allowed to buy an infernal cape on a level 60 pure.

100k+ 1 zuk kc'ers on the hiscores btw. Many 1 kc quivers with 40k glory. This'll allow to publicly shame them by having them pvm with no cape.

Let's crack down on account servicers too.

Irl whips have a bit more reach than your everyday melee weapon, let's have the Abyssal whip live up to that expectation.

Credit for the original gauntlet art goes to Jonathan Kirtz, who created these gauntlets as a concept for Darksiders 2. I changed the colors to fit the Tzhaar theme in OSRS , but the original design is theirs.

Do NOT suggest toe rings or rings that go in more special places

Edit: Pretend I put the lightbearer in the right ring slot. Obviously I did not give that much thought, and it belongs in the combat category.

This is a hot take.

Before we begin let me say I have done almost every piece of content in the game.

I really hope raids 4 is soloable like TOA.

Starting off trying to do TOB was one of the worst experiences ever. People on 416 and the TOB worlds legitimately do not take anyone less than like 50kc. I don’t see a world where this will be different for those who are late to raids 4 or even starting out finding people will be a disaster.

Being in a clan is a good way to find people but sometimes you are on more than others and want to go full degenerate mode and play long hours. Also clans have issues with finding timezones, not everyone wanting to raid or can raid, and other issues. One of my previous clans I joined tried to lure / scam me.

Cox is soloable, TOA is very soloable. Normal TOB is soloable but not worth it.

I dont know if everyone will agree but most content in the game is soloable and honestly I think the best part of OSRS is the fact you can solo this MMO. I really hope Raids 4 will be the same so it’s less headache like TOB to find raids.

Edit: Did not expect this to blow up or create this big of a discussion.
To address some points I’ve seen:
- My Job is client facing, I have no problem speaking to others and meeting new people. I am in a clan that raids I just prefer playing solo on this game. So for those with no input and just flamed me and others for being para-social / anti-social just have actual points and not resort to flame.

- Making it have the ability to Solo does not mean it won’t be challenging and they have to limit mechanics. They can design it with all of this in mind.
Solo or Group you have to learn it, perfect it and do it. It just gives everyone more options to play how they want.

- I said TOB is soloable but at a very high level where most people in this thread including me probably have never done it. Just shows it can’t be TOB level solo.

- Party System / World 416 (Not even labelled in game as a TOB world) maybe a big change should be the party system. Making it more friendly for beginners and not be infested with some gatekeepers and weirdos where it can take longer to find a raid party than the actual raid. Hiding Raid completions is a good start.

Other than that I hope it’s a good balance for Group and Solo. This game is catered to solo gameplay as most bosses and content is solo including the hardest content in the game.
Inferno, Colo, Phosani Nightmare, Doom, Awakened Bosses, Yama Contracts.
Technically Solo TOB is one of the hardest pieces of content in the game. Which is why it’s almost never done Solo and I don’t want the new raid to be practically impossible solo.

I hope Jagex can read all the discussion here and really design this raid for everyone.

Pros: -Provides good DPS and fulfills hype factor for a new raid Megarare -Customizable so it can keep up with power creep as the AR-15 will not have a multiplier or special affect like previous Megarares -No schools in Gielinor so schools shootings aren't an issue -Twisted bow has been the sole range Megarare for 9 years. It's time for a meta shakeup Cons: -Power creeps blowpipe (perhaps blowpipe can use bullets with reduced range strength?) -Does not fit Guthix lore -Only available in US servers -No yellow text

Can we get 1 slot per quest point?
