Dev Blog: Content Poll #27

Instanced Corporeal Beast

Since the release of the Corporeal Beast there have been hundreds of thousands of the boss killed. It is fair to say that the boss has become a favourite of many and the hunt for sigils is one that many players have taken on wholeheartedly.

In order to help players along with this hunt and due to popular demand, we would like to offer the ability to create an instanced version of the boss for yourself and your team.

To open up an instance you would need to have placed at least 200,000 coins in a coffer that will be found in the cave of the Corporeal Beast. Once opened, 200,000 coins would be removed from the coffer and you would now be allowed access (along with players in your friends chat).

The instancing system will allow you and your team to consistently kill the Corporeal Beast in peace without having to worry about being crashed.

Question: Should we add an instanced Corporeal Beast that allows players to take their clan chat in? It would cost 200k per entry for a team of any size.

Elysian spirit shield special effect animation

When using an elysian spirit shield, despite the incredible strength of the special effect, there is no way of telling when the shield is working away and reducing incoming damage. In order to give you a better idea of just how much the shield is doing we are going to be offering a small animation that would play to indicate when the effect of the shield activates.

The animation would be subtle to make sure that you are still able to see exactly what is happening when you're in combat but it would still be apparent just how much your shield is helping you. 

Question: Should a subtle animation play to indicate when the Elysian spirit shield effect is activated?

Armadyl cross bow graphical rework

Before Mod Alfred left the Old School team, he had a go at re-working the appearance of both the Armadyl crossbow and the Armadyl crossbow special attack. Right now the Armadyl crossbow is simply a slightly modified Hunters' crossbow, many players have asked for something a little more.

Below is the model that Alfred created for the crossbow.


Question: Should the Armadyl crossbow and its special attack be graphically re-worked?

Nightmare Zone graphical rework

The Nightmare Zone arena is not the most unique of areas as it stands. Mod Ghost would like to offer a graphical re-work for the arena to make it a little more interesting and to make your hours and hours spent in the arena a touch more enjoyable.

At the moment he has not started working on the re-work. Offering this in the poll will allow us to judge if this change is something the community would be interested in seeing. Of course, as Mod Ghost works away on the new environment he would be constantly sharing his progress with you all and, of course, listening to feedback.

Question: Should the Nightmare Zone environment be graphically reworked?
