  1. It depends on the category of 2017 to me

     

    Early 2017(January to May):

    - Logan

    - GOTG vol. 2

    - Beauty and the Beast

     

    Summer 2017 (June to August)

    - Spider-man: Homecoming

     

    Late 2017 (September - December)

    - Kingsman 2

    I have yet to watch next 3 film - Star Wars, Justice League, and Thor. If this thread is active enough, I will update it. I've watched Despicable Me 3 in Summer this year and it wasn't that good. Maybe next time.

    I have to disagree, you're probably just joking but all I want to say is no.

    Unfortunately, I'd have to disagree with you. Roy is the founder - with a reason like this, he has rights to take the money out of GFL. I wouldn't even mind.

     I'd help out with the funds, but I would prefer to go through paypal instead. Currently, I have to wait and deal with a bill this month, otherwise, I'd donate $15. I'll donate as much as I can when I finally get this sorted out.

     

    EDIT: @Roy - Even if I can't donate, you're in my thoughts and prayers.

    Burning the cross.  It's a tradition they do.  It's the first thing that comes to mind.  Sorry if I offended you or some shit.  (I've had a beyond awful week, and i'm just trying to take my mind off a lot of shit)

    It wasn't burning, though. If they want to burn it, perhaps a block of fire that keeps on infinite could work. 

    If it was meant to be a burning cross, it's kinda unnecessary.

    I know a bunch of Christian Minecraft servers, I'm not sure if they're still up. They had one on purpose of gathering and having a fellowship with fellow Christian gamers.

    If God created us to have free-will, by extension he also created evil to some degree which again means he's not omnibenevolent.  

    Also, what about the people who were born into certain circumstances such has having mental disabilites or impaired vision or whatever other birth defect you can name? Was it their free-will to obtain certain ill-ness?

    However, what about another person who wasn't so lucky ended up loosing his father which eventually drove that person and his family into depression which later drove them into making irresponsible self-detrimental decisions?  What if those decisions end up costing their own or someone else's life?

    He created beings capable of evil; he did not create their evilness. I am deaf, and it happened out of nowhere -- Don't get me wrong, I like being deaf, and it doesn't stop me thinking "Why did God do this" instead because I know afterlife I will be able to hear again.
     

    Suffering exists because sin exists, but God is not absent, even in suffering, and as much as we feel it is often pointless or malevolent against us, we don't see the whole picture. Suffering is not good, but God can use even the actions of evil people to accomplish something good. Even the original sins of Adam and Eve were this way; they were horrible and resulted in suffering for the entire universe, but even through this God used this as a way to give us mercy we would never have needed had we remained perfect, blessing that is much more than we deserve and even sacrifice of his own son that would not have been necessary if there was no sin committed in the first place. God allows suffering in the present, and he can use this suffering to strengthen faith, bring to faith, or even as an opportunity to provide a blessing that the suffering ones don't deserve.

    Your reaction against Hell and divine judgment is misplaced, you're reacting against a Dantean Hell, wherein, Hell is the choice of a free person against being an image bearing creature, a "no" to existing as a human, essentially.

     

    I explained above about suffering. 

    There's a verse based on evil:

    Quote

    Romans 1:18-20 ESV

    God's Wrath on Unrighteousness

    18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth. known about God is plain to  For what can be19 them, because God has shown it to them. 20 For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world,[a] in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse.

    I won't be convincing you to return to your previous faith you've had; after all, you've made up your mind (Based on our conversations over steam). Plus, Catholic Church may be interesting, but it's a little confusing for me because I believe the opposite they do: Sola Scriptura. I'm planning to explore Lutheranism and Methodism soon-ish.

     

    ---

    Regardless, I don't want to turn this thread into a debate, I posted because @Kubnair wanted to know what I thought about this question, and I think the post has already got some questions answered for him. I couldn't answer some of those questions you've asked, Shuruia, but perhaps in near future, I most likely will in Steam chat. I guess that's going to be all for now -- until then, I hope all of you have had a great day today.

    This whole theory of "it's just a test of faith" is nothing more then a failure of understanding the totality of evil that has happened in the world. To think that there is always net positive result of one "God's Test" is a ludicrous stance.  It's the ultimate "get away with imposing bad shit on the world" free card every religious person tries to pull in an argument.

    I wholeheartedly reject the notion that the reason why unfortunate events happened to human beings is test of faith. What kind of all-knowing entity subjects their creation to cruel, tedious and just flat-out unnecessary trials?

    Furthermore why would anyone in their right mind would ever worship yet alone acknowledge such an entity?

    You forgot to notice that God gave us free will. 

     

    I'm going to point out two things:

    First, God usually lets things go naturally, and that it's not "a test from God" when bad things happen every single time.

    Second, bad events can often improve people, or develop them to do great things in future, which usually happens. 

     

    Take your time and listen to this video. https://youtu.be/FC6CRRz4FEs

     

    Also, that image was kinda unnecessary.

    This is true but also contradicting, sorry but like as I said, since the beginning of the human race, they've been curious, and they still are, they discovered things they could not explain, and so they claimed that a god created it, a great example for this can be the Greek Gods.

    Conflating Greek Gods and the God of Judao-Christian origins is intellectually dishonest. You don't have thousands of years of historical accounts from multiple sources and different languages on multiple continents to contest to the veracity of the claims of Greek Gods. Instead, you have different cities in which admittedly these "gods" were created as a representative for each different city, similar to a home team in sports. You don't have specific references to specific people like you do in the New Testament for example, such as Caiphas or Pilate, one of whose tomb has been found and the other whose house has also been found.

     

    Again, like I said, our brains aren’t meant to understand/comprehend it.

     If you dont mind me asking there had to have been a start even to God. How did he exist how did time start existing? God appearing out of nowhere into our dark universe and deciding to create planets is fine but where did he appear from? How did the idea of planets starts hit him?

    The question is unanswerable and I cannot answer that because I’m not God. Like I said, He is eternal. Out of nowhere it just started. 

     

    Although, God exists beyond and outside of the universe - and so He’s not bound to laws of casualties. This doesn’t mean He can’t enter the universe though. Our brains aren’t meant to understand/comprehend it.

    Didn't think about this before but one more thing.

     

    Why are we living in such a massive universe that is STILL expanding and we probably barely see a fraction of it (observable universe) if the purpose was for just for us to be created, plus we cant and we will probably never be able to discover it seen that its SO SO SO LARGE.

     

    I feel like the universe wasn't created for us, but we were created because of it. 

    2

    Arguably, the universe wasn't made for us. It was made for God, by God. 

     

    We can still explore what He created, by using what He also created: Science.

    @Benroy, no offense, but if you follow god's image, how are you good? God (im athiest) is not good. If God was good, then the holocaust would not have happened, 9/11, wars, cancer, murders, all of that. If god was good, he wouldn't make people suffer through that stuff. i don't believe in him, but if I did, i would say him as all powerful, not all good. And answer me this. why would he make other planets we can't live on? It makes no sense. you say god can do anything, but can he make a rock he cannot lift?

    None taken. I ignore insults I get when people learn that I'm Christian. 

     

    God lets bad things happen so that He can draw a greater good from them.  Let me tell you a story, this happened to me before.

     

    One day, in 2012, my dad suffered a major heart attack and made it through the first night. It was like this and the doctors were doubting. At that time I began to question to know why God let this happened, and then I cleared my mind. The doctors set up surgery date and my family hoped that my dad would make it to the one of longest and important day of my life - open heart surgery. It took 6 hours, possibly more, surgeon managed to complete the surgery and made it successful.  

     

    So, in a way: God tests us to see if we'd remain faithful. At that day, it was one of a miracle from God. It's like God tested Abraham and Job. When things get taken away, we get blessed by the Lord. (Call me out if I repeated this 3 times). I was tested several times this year, and last year. It's tough trying to grow when you let bad things take over your mind.

    Fair enough, but not as enough as I would like it to be, I have one last question before I go to sleep (12 am I wake up at 5am...)

    If god created us, why did he? in Islam, I don't know if it's the same for Christianity, god created us to worship him right? and since god existed and will always exist, means he already existed and will always exist, so he knows everything, which means that HE WROTE our faith, HE WROTE our moves, HE WROTE everything.

     

    Let's get to the real deal, hey, let's say i'm wrong and god exists, and now i'm going to hell, why? because when he was writing my destiny he wrote it so I'm to be an atheist? a non-believer? he gave me nerves so I can feel fire burning my body for an eternity? and it repeats?!! it goes on and on and on, I never die...? I just keep getting roasted because he decided that I should when he was writing my destiny? 

    Something I've already said before: He gave a life for us to exist, to explore what He created, and to worship him (Reference in Isaiah 43:6-7.)

     

    It sounds like determinism, to be honest. I know that God gave us free-will, giving us a choice to do whatever we want to do, look in Romans 9:14, and following up to ver 19 in any Bible translation. So that being said, you can believe whatever you want, do whatever you want, and act like whatever you want. 

     

    Also, that's for Calvinist, and I'm not one of them because I believe in free will which we were given.

  10. Partially going to answer this if you don't mind. (Thanks for the fact you've given me :P

    1 hour ago, Syntax said:

    As for that, while it sounds a bit reasonable and all, the issue I'm having and the question I'm asking is that, God is there to create us right? why is he there to create us? it means that someone else created him, he can't just be there because he was and he will, it kinda contradicts itself, also, humanity has existed for atleast 100+ thousand years, and scientific proof has it that they've been worshiping other stuff before "invisible gods" for so long, they worshiped stones because they believed they're mythical and outstanding simply because they're above the ground, then meteors, shooting stars, and even asteroids (very small ones) because they thought they are getting punished for something wrong they did, and so they believed it was punishment, then came water, sun, moon, animals, and even people, they worshiped those who are powerful.

     

    You've asserted that because God did this, that means it was God's purpose or that God had to do this. This is a blatant fallacy, especially as the only evidence you have to support the assertion is that God did, in fact, make humans. As well, you take it further and assert that because God created humans, that means something must have created God. You have not laid the proper logical foundation for this claim but have used a completely unrelated incident to assert that another thing happened, despite all claims to the contrary. 

     

    So that being said, you're lacking a few major points in your logic (which is in above ^)

     

    And yes, we can get along, I respect your decision on not believing in God or being Agnostic, and I'm happy to answer more questions about this. Who says you can't be friends with someone who doesn't have a belief?

    Hey Ben,

     

    As I mentioned before, the result of that equation means that God is a useless entity that doesn't serve a purpose, means it's there because it is, was, and there's no reason for it to exist nor a reason for it to die, it means it's a virtual entity that has the potential of existing but doesn't exist, it's a bit complex.

    1

    Isaiah 43:6-7 ESV
    "I will say to the north, Give up,
    and to the south, Do not withhold;
    bring my sons from afar
    and my daughters from the end of the earth,
    7 everyone who is called by my name,
    whom I created for my glory,
    whom I formed and made.”

     

    He does have a purpose. If He is eternal, then He's all-powerful. He gave a life for us to exist, to explore what He created. Which is one of the reasons why I believe in God's existence. The point you're trying to get across here is that God is beyond even our minds but that doesn't make him useless. I think we can only know what is good because we have God to compare everything to. Being in his image we can use logic and know some things.

     

    I hope I explained this all I can in a way. 

  12. Just now, rapperdan said:

    right and the earth is 6000 years old...

    Not necessarily. 

     

    I believe that the Earth can be more than 6,000 years old, but not that much(4 Billion years old). Somewhere roughly 20,000-40,000 BC. This may be a little hard to put up on the beliefs. Either way, let's not put this down into leading off-topic unless Kubnair wants this going.

     

    Gonna tag @Jcfraven for this interesting thread. 

  13. This is a very great question. Well, first before I answered the question, this is generally common questions asked by Atheist/Spiritful Satanist. The topic came on late last night. There was also apologetics topic based on this question too, as well. 

     

    The answer is, actually, God is, was, and will be infinite. So that being said, He has been existing even before the beginning. Outside the time, so basically, God is eternal.

    Dev Blog: Dragon Slayer II
     
    Yr8ESFD.jpg

    The purpose of this blog is to detail as much as possible prior to the poll going live in-game to allow for player feedback. 
    Following feedback on previous blogs, we're trying something new this time by breaking things down into a lot more detail than usual. Also, we're purposefully not saying much about the actual quest and how it will play out as we don't want to ruin the surprise!


    "Prove yourself a true champion. Kill the mighty dragon Elvarg of Crandor and earn the right to buy and wear the Rune Platebody" It has been 16 years to the day that the earliest Champion first heeded these words and set upon one of the most iconic challenges within RuneScape. In answering this call to arms the great adventurer would navigate Melzar’s Maze, traverse the island of Crandor and inflict revenge upon Elvarg.
     
    hr.png 
    The Quest


    30 years prior to the fateful day a mighty adventurer awakened Elvarg from her slumber, Crandor was a thriving and very much alive island, with a great tradition of mages and adventurers. The history of the Crandor is a bold one, enough so that many a Crandorian earned the right to be part of the Champions' Guild! The Crandor we know today is very different from that of the past and there are so many questions that remain unanswered - your chance to uncover the secrets of the past starts with Dragon Slayer II.

    Dragon Slayer II will lead you on an adventure across the game, visiting locations new and old. Along the way, you will uncover new lore on the Dragons, as well as hearing the story of many a brave hero. Expect to complete challenging puzzles, traverse through undiscovered dungeons with multiple threats and face against some of the most fearsome foes we’ve ever introduced into the game! Dragon Slayer II will be a new Grandmaster quest with some of the highest requirements for any quest to date. For such a challenge, those able to complete the quest are sure to be rewarded greatly – so much so that we are detailing and offering all rewards separately. 

     

    Poll Question
    Should we add the quest Dragon Slayer II to Old School RuneScape? It will be rewarded with 5 Quest Points.

    The Myths Guild
     
    PQAdh03.png
    Images and detail are currently a WIP and are subject to change


    As time passes, that which was once fact, becomes myth. Some tales are just that, tales. However, some tales are something more. - Alec Kincade, Guildmaster. 
    The Myths Guild is a new guild located on a small island south of Feldip Hills. It is a guild dedicated to unearthing
    fact and dispelling notions of fiction. The island is accessed via a small bridge from the mainland. Players with 200 or more quest points will be able to enter the lobby of the guild. However, full access to the guild is only available to players who have completed Dragon Slayer II. 

    The Myths guild will contain:

     

    • A bank (with deposit box and poll booth)
    • An armoury containing a shopkeeper and an anvil.
    • A kitchen containing a range and a sink
    • A garden containing 4 Magic Trees.
    • A mine containing 4 Adamantite rocks and 2 Runite rocks.
    • A chapel containing an altar.
    • The Fountain of Myths - Can be used to recharge Skills necklaces, Combat bracelets and Amulets of glory.
    • A portal chamber with portals to the Champions' Guild, Heroes' Guild and Legend's Guild.
    • A library with various lore books.
    • A dungeon containing a selection of Green, Blue, Red and Black Dragons (including baby dragons).

    Thearmoury store will sell the following items:
     
    • Dragon dagger (30,000 coins)
    • Dragon mace (50,000 coins)
    • Dragon longsword (100,000 coins)
    • Dragon battleaxe (200,000 coins)
    • Shield right half (750,000 coins)
    • Dragon metal shard (2,000,000 coins) if Dragon Kiteshield/Platebody are added to the game only
     
    Poll Question
    If Dragon Slayer II is added, should we add a new guild – the Myths Guild?


    Mythical Ring 
    The Mythical Ring is a new ring which will provide unlimited teleports to the Myths Guild. It can be reclaimed from the proposed Guildmaster below if lost.

     

    Poll Question
    If Dragon Slayer II is added to the game, should completion of the quest reward you with the Mythical Ring?


    Superior Antifire Potions 
    Upon completion of the quest, players will be able to talk to an NPC in the Myths guild to unlock the ability to create Superior antifire potions. Superior antifire potions can be created by combining Antifire potions with crushed Superior dragon bones, provided the player has a Herblore level of 92. Superior dragon bones will be covered later in this blog. Mixing a Superior antifire potion will yield 130xp per potion.
    Superior antifire potions are tradeable and will provide complete fire protection for 2 minutes. Creating Superior antifire potions will provide minimal amounts of
    xp and should not be considered an effective way of training herblore. The using and trading of Superior antifire potions does not require completion of Dragon Slayer II, only the making of the potions requires quest completion.
     

    Poll Question
    If we add the Myths guild, should we add an NPC who can teach you how to create Superior antifire potions?

    Wrath Altar and Surge Spells


    The Wrath Altar 
    Players with 95 and above Runecrafting would be able to craft a new tradeable Rune, known as Wrath runes. This would be done via the Wrath altar located within the guild. The altar is guarded by Adamant and Rune dragons (these are covered later in the blog). Access to the guild and the altar would only be unlocked after completing Dragon Slayer II. Players will need a Wrath talisman which would be dropped by Adamant Dragons, Rune Dragons or
    Vorkath – if the Wrath talisman was not added to the drop table of these NPC’s then we cannot add the Wrath altar. A Wrath tiara can also be used which is made in the usual way. 

    Crafting Wrath runes will provide less
    xp/hr than lava runes (approx. 30k/hour) and will require traversing through a dungeon filled with aggressive dragons of varying strength or via the Abyss.

    Wrath runes will be used in the Surge spells if they are added to the game. If the altar does not get added to the game and Surge spells pass the poll, the only way to obtain these runes will be via NPC drops. If the Wrath runes were not added to the drop table of these NPC’s then we cannot add the Surge spells. 
    Wrath runes and the Surge spells can be used without completing the quest. The Ourania Altar will not give Wrath runes. 

     

    Poll Question
    If we add the Myths guild, should we also add the Wrath Altar?


    Surge Spells 
    We often get asked to give the Standard Spellbook some much-needed love and attention. With the possibility of Wrath runes being added to the game, now feels like the perfect time to introduce Surge Spells to Old School! The animation for these spells would be similar to the original design when they were first added. 

    Wrath runes and the Surge spells can be used without completing the quest.

    Wind Surge Requires 81 Magic. Uses 7 Air Runes and 1 Wrath Rune. Has a max hit of 21. 
    Water Surge Requires 85 Magic. Uses 7 Air Runes, 10 Water
    Runes and 1 Wrath Rune. Has a max hit of 22. 
    Earth Surge Requires 90 Magic. Uses 7 Air Runes, 10 Earth
    Runes and 1 Wrath Rune. Has a max hit of 23. 
    Fire Surge Requires 95 Magic. Uses 7 Air Runes, 10 Fire
    Runes and 1 Wrath Rune. Has a max hit of 24. The Tome of Fire will work with Fire Surge. 
     

    Poll Question
    Should we add Surge spells to the game? These would form part of the standard spellbook and offers spells from Wind Surge (81 Magic) through to Fire Surge (95 Magic).
     
    hr.png 
    New Boss & Special Drops


    Vorkath 
    Dragon Slayer II is sure to challenge your wits, as well as offering many a tough NPC you’ll have to defeat! We want to extend this challenge further by adding a new solo boss into the game –
    Vorkath (Who can be seen in the artwork heading this post). Vorkath will be a brand-new Dragon boss offering the long awaited upgrade to the accumulator, Ava’s Assembler, which is a new best in slot ranged cape, alongside a new ranged shield similar to the Dragonfire Shield known as the Dragonfire Ward. 
     

    Poll Question
    If Dragon Slayer II is added to the game, should we include Vorkath, a new
    high level solo boss to the game? The boss would have a combat level of 600 to 700 and kills will be tracked in the boss log. Vorkath can be assigned as a boss slayer task if the player has unlocked them.


    Superior Dragon Bones 
    Vorkath will guarantee two bone drops per kill. These tradeable bones give 150 Prayer xp when buried making them the best bones in the game. However, they will require a Prayer level of 70 to use. Superior dragon bones can also be crushed with a Pestle and Mortar to create Crushed dragon bones which are a secondary ingredient in Superior antifire potions. Use of the bones will not require completion of the quest.
     

    Poll Question
    If Vorkath is added to the game, should it drop Superior dragon bones?


    Dragon Bolts 
    Vorkath will drop Dragon bolts (unf). Players with 84 Fletching will be able to add feathers to these to make Dragon bolts. Dragon bolts will be new crossbow bolts that can be fired from Dragon, Dragon hunter and Armadyl crossbows. Dragon bolts (unf) and Dragon bolts will be tradeable. Bolt tips from Dragonstone upwards will be addable to Dragon bolts. Use of these bolts in any form will not require completion of the quest. Adding feathers to Dragon bolts (unf) will yield 12xp per completed bolt. 
     

    EKyIewL.jpg
    Images and detail are currently a WIP and are subject to change
     
    Poll Question
    If Vorkath is added to the game, should it drop Dragon bolts (unf)?


    Wrath Talisman 
    Vorkath will drop the Wrath Talisman which is a tradeable talisman that can be used to gain access to the Wrath Altar. A Wrath tiara can be created from a Wrath talisman. This would only be added if the Wrath Altar is added to the game. 
     

    Poll Question
    If Vorkath is added to the game, should it drop a Wrath talisman?

    Wrath Runes 
    Vorkath will sometimes drop a moderate amount of Wrath runes. Wrath runes would be a new tradeable rune used to cast Surge spells should they be added to the game. If the Wrath Altar does not get added to the game this will be one of the only source of Wrath runes. Wrath runes and the Surge spells can be used without completing the quest.
     
    Poll Question
    If Vorkath is added to the game, should it drop a moderate amount of Wrath runes?


    Dragonbone Necklace 
    Vorkath will rarely drop the Dragonbone Necklace, a tradeable necklace. The necklace will require 80 Prayer to equip and when worn it will restore prayer points when bones are buried. The amount of prayer points restored will vary depending on the bone buried with higher level bones giving more prayer points – this will use the same scaling as burying bones in the Kourend Catacombs. Completion of the quest is not required to equip the necklace. 

    This effect would not stack with the Kourend Catacombs prayer perk. 
    Equipping the necklace will reduce players remaining prayer points by 50% - this would apply regardless of whether you are in combat or not. The reason behind this is to prevent players swapping to and from the necklace solely to gain prayer points on demand.

    If Vorkath is added to the game, should it drop the Dragonbone Necklace?


    Skeletal Visage & Dragonfire Ward 
    Vorkath will drop the Skeletal visage, a tradeable ranged version of the Draconic visage. Players with 90 Smithing can combine an Anti-dragon shield with a Skeletal visage to create a Dragonfire ward, a new ranged version of the Dragonfire shield which Requires 75 Defence and 70 Ranged to equip. Completion of the quest is not required to equip the Dragonfire ward. The experience gained from smithing the Dragonfire ward would be similar to that of the Dragonfire shield. The Dragonfire ward is charged and uncharged in the same manner that the Dragonfire shield.

    Vorkath’s Head & Ava’s Assembler 
    Vorkath will rarely drop his head. Players can take this head to Ava in Draynor Manor along with an Ava’s accumulator to obtain an Ava’s assembler, a new best in slot ranged item for the cape slot. Ava’s assembler can randomly gather mithril ranged items. This would require 70 Ranged to equip. Both Vorkath’s head and Ava’s Assembler will be untradeable. There will be a max cape version of Ava’s Assembler. The Assembler has the same chance of saving ammunition as the Accumulator.

    Metal Dragons & Special Drops

    With the introduction of a quest based around dragons, it seems fitting we should offer a new NPC for you to slay! With the current metal dragon’s lineage ending at Mithril, we’d love to finally give you the chance to add both Adamant and Runite dragons to the game!

    Adamant Dragons 
    Adamant Dragons would have a combat level of around 340. Killing Adamant Dragons will require completion of the quest. 

     

    Poll Question
    If Dragon Slayer II is added to the game, should we introduce Adamant Dragons?


    Superior Dragon Bones 
    Guarantee of one drop per dragon, these tradeable bones give 150 Prayer
    xp when buried making them the best bones in the game. However, they require a Prayer level of 70 to use. Superior dragon bones can also be crushed with a Pestle and Mortar to create Crushed dragon bones which are a secondary ingredient in the potential new Superior antifire potions. Use of the bones will not require completion of the quest. 
     

    Poll Question
    If Adamant Dragons are added to the game should they drop Superior dragon bones?


    Dragon Bolts 
    Players with 84 Fletching will be able to add feathers to these to make Dragon bolts. Dragon bolts will be new crossbow bolts that can be fired from Dragon (if added to the game), Dragon hunter and Armadyl crossbows. Dragon bolts (unf) and Dragon bolts will be tradeable. Use of these bolts in any form will not require completion of the quest.

    Poll Question
    If Adamant Dragons are added to the game should they drop Dragon bolts (unf)?
     
    Poll Question
    If Dragon bolts (unf) are added to the game, should it be possible to add bolt tips from Dragonstone upwards to the finished product? They would have the same effect as current bolts, with the only difference being the added base stats of the Dragon Bolt. The use of these would not require completion of the quest.


    Dragon Crossbow 
    Dragon limbs are a new tradeable item that can be used to create the Dragon crossbow. Players with 78 Fletching will be able to create a Magic stock from Magic logs which can be used with Dragon limbs to create a Dragon crossbow (u). This can then be strung with a crossbow string to create a Dragon crossbow. The Dragon crossbow will sit between the Runite crossbow and the Dragon hunter crossbow. The crossbow will be tradeable and will require 65 Ranged to equip. Completion of the quest is not required to equip the crossbow. The experience gained from fletching the crossbow would be similar to that of the Rune crossbow.

    Poll Question
    If Adamant Dragons are added to the game should they drop the Wrath Talisman?


    Wrath Runes 
    Wrath runes would be a new tradeable rune used to cast Surge spells should they be added to the game. If the Wrath Altar does not get added to the game this will be one of the only
    source of Wrath runes. Wrath runes and the Surge spells can be used without completing the quest.
     

    Poll Question
    If Adamant Dragons are added to the game should they drop
    a small amount of Wrath runes?


    Dragon Kiteshield

    tradeable drop from Adamant Dragons and can be combined with the Dragon metal shard (from the Myths Guild Armoury) by players with 75 Smithing to create a Dragon Kiteshield. The Dragon Kiteshield will be tradeable and will require 60 Defence to equip. Completion of the quest is not required to equip the kiteshield. The experience gained from smithing the kiteshield would be similar to that of the Dragon sq shield.

    Slayer Task Extension 
    If Adamant and Runite dragons are added to the game, they will be added to the current list of metal dragon slayer tasks if you have completed the quest. Both Adamant and Runite dragons will be assigned by Nieve/Steve and Duradel. The weighting on them is fairly low, and the amount to kill will be small. We would like to offer you a way of extending these, should you wish to.

     

    Poll Question
    If Adamant Dragons are added to the game, should we add a separate slayer task extension for them?

    The Corsair Cove
    The Corsair Cove will be located in the South East of Feldip Hills. The settlement will have walls on all sides with the only access points being a gate in the west wall and the docks. The settlement will be inhabited by Pirates called Corsairs. F2P players will be able to access the Cove via a free ship from Port Sarim. Members will additionally be able to use Charter Ships to and from the Cove. The cove will contain a few low-level fishing spots and trees along with a bank and a dungeon. The dungeon will contain brand new NPCs for players to kill with the aim to offer an alternative location for players to train for a small profit. There would be no notable drops from these NPC’s. The gate to the west will be guarded by a corsair who will only let the player out if they have completed Dragon Slayer or if they are a member. 

     

    Poll Question
    The Corsair Cove will be added alongside the Myths Guild, should the Cove be accessible to F2P players?


    The Corsair Cove Expansion
    The expanded area will be cut off from the rest of Feldip Hills by a dense forest. There will be two areas where members can pass through the forest but F2P won't be able to. The southern Feldip Hills will contain
    a second dungeon with more of the new NPC (it will be linked to the first dungeon with a members only shortcut). As well as this, the area will contain a mining site with 5 coal, 2 mithril and 1 adamant rock, Yew trees and some fishing spots with Swordfish and Lobster. Players in this area will be able to see the Myths Guild and talk to the Guildmaster.
     

    Poll Question
    If the Corsair Cove is added, should we include an expansion of the cove for F2P players who have completed Dragon Slayer? Members will not need to complete the quest to access this area.
     
    Poll Question
    If the Corsair Cove expansion is added, should we include a selection of Maple trees alongside the proposed Yew trees? Note that this will make Maple trees accessible in F2P.


    The Corsair Curse
    The Corsair Curse will be a novice quest which is started by talking to the Corsair Captain at the crossroads north of Port Sarim. Completion of the quest will reward players with 2 quest points and access to the bank within the cove. Members will require completion of this quest to use the bank.

     

    Poll Question
    If the Corsair Cove is added, should we add a new F2P quest called the Corsair Curse?
