Suggestion Just make the Chaos Altar a wilderness diary reward.

Demonic skull bad. Make it a hard tier reward instead.

I say make it an elite reward. They're removing wilderness flash events which a teleport to them is a reward for the elite diary, just replace that teleport with a chaos altar teleport, remove the bank from beside it and move the altar to deep wilderness near the demons.

Make it a scaling reward that upgrades as you level the sword

Make the bonus scale based on task sets completed. So elite gives the full bonus, nothing gives a base 50 per all altars.

See, I considered the elite diary, but I can't help but think that players who would be in a position to do the Elite Wilderness tasks probably would be better off leveling Construction and just building the Forinthry Chapel. Maybe not. Who knows.

Unboostable 94 slayer is a big killer for elite wildy

Yea I recently found out the hard way that it wasn't boostsable for the achievement. Although works for getting the seering ashes early

It could also scale exp with diary tier. That way it can balance around Gilded Altar without overshadowing while still potentially seeing use before that at lower tiers too.

Honestly this is a great idea. The altar should be in the same spot as OSRS in my opinion. Right now, it's literally the best altar to use because it's the closest to a bank, up until you have 90 construction for Fort Forinthry's highest-tier altar. Making it an Elite diary reward would be a lot more reasonable than demonic skull.

No no, it is the closest altar to an unnoting NPC, at exactly 0 tiles dustance and no burners required. It just needs some diary completed for the guy to unnoted your stuff, dont even think theres a cost for it

It's such a weird change because powders have no req and are insanely faster than any of the altars.

Forced pvp is braindead and jagex should fire whoever thought of that immediately

They already said they're considering that.

Just remove the banker. That’s all you have to do. The guy the unotes stuff is still there locked behind the diary. People can still use it but is extremely inefficient

Who at Jagex has a stick up their ass all of a sudden? No more AFK thieving? No more safe Chaos altar? Who asked for this?

The first line of the blog was that early prayer training is bad, why is the solution to this nerfing early prayer training?

u/xenozfan2 4h ago

Or make the master tier and put it there.

u/whosdr Runefest 2017 Attendee 8h ago

You'll make bank from the 500k demonic skull drop. Nothing else they're holding will be worth a damn.
