Rejuvenating the Wilderness | The Facts

Rejuvenating the Wilderness


Development Update #1 - Mod Mat K's Update - Based on player feedback


Development Update #2 - Updated World Map


Green Dragons/Multi-Combat

I actually thought they would follow through with making the Green Dragon spawn areas multi-combat. It's definitely a good idea to fight bots but not for people who use GD's as their GP income. I'm 50/50 on it, either way it wouldn't bother me. I've killed over 500 GD's since I started playing OSRS and if I can teleport away from one PKer, 10 shouldn't be a problem. Although, with one person chasing you, there's a chance you can still make it out of the wild, but, with 2-3 players on you in level 12 wild(Entangled/TB'd?), 10 Lobsters in your inventory, you don't have a chance. Maybe you're someone who doesn't mind risking decent gear to get the job done faster, like me. Regardless, there's not much of a chance.

It takes me 7 minutes per inventory, not including banking and walking back.

Check out the second link at the very top if you haven't already. Due to player feed-back, they've decided unanimously that they will not roll out this tweak to the Green Dragon spawns.

Red Dragons - Drop Table Update

This is definitely an awesome idea and should have been done back in 2007, why did you have to wait so long? Nobody wants to kill them because they're in level 40+ wild, you needed to be decently geared, and you couldn't teleport...

The NEW FISH

There will be a new fish added to RuneScape. You can only catch this certain fish at two fishing spots(total) in the Wilderness, granted you have acquired the bait from the Zombie Ruins in the wild. I really hope this bait is un-tradeable. If PK'ers want to have to best food available, they should have to get the bait and fish themselves.

Edit:

The new fish is going to be a Crab. It will heal 22 HP. You'll need 85 fishing to catch it and 90 cooking to cook it.

Demi-Bosses / Tzhaar Shield / AKA - Obsidian Shield - Magic/Ranging Version

I think having solo-able bosses is a good idea, it's almost like Rare spawns in World of Warcraft. Why would they choose the Obsidian Shield?!?! I can't wait to see the stats.

Edit:

The Ranging version of the shield will have a green trim and the Magic version will have a blue trim. I think it looks ugly but the stats are actually decent. These are going to be pricey variations of the Obsidian Shield.

Fountain of Rune

While you're near the Fountain of Rune, all spells will be free(no runes required), but, you will not gain XP for casting these spells.

If you are not training magic and know of an item that you lose profit on while Alching due to the price of Nature runes, you may be in luck.

The Fountain of Rune will generate GP into the game. It is possible that Nature runes will drop in price because of this update. Most likely before the update, possibly after depending how it rolls out.

The Looting Bag

This is a really awesome idea and I think it should have been introduced a long time ago. All of the food, pots, and small jewelry that gets left on the ground for looters that you could be using for your next kill, this will be extremely useful.

Wilderness Ditch Removal

It's about time they've removed the ditch. If you aren't PKing you aren't going to be near the ditch. Keep your trades strictly in the Edgeville Bank. If you're at the bank, surely you would realize they're running towards the wild, it's like 30 tiles from the bank.

They could also make it so if you're chasing them and they enter the wild, you stop chasing them. By default, they would enter the wilderness first so it could work.
