The Wilderness is broken.

Title says it all.

The release of the wilderness was... to put it politely... a catastrophe. The fact that BASIC CORE MECHANICS are missing from the Wilderness update says it all:

- No protect item (or the ability to keep 4 items)
- No quick prayers.
- Swordfish (best food in-game) heal 14HP yet players can literally max hit 38 with Rapid Range + RCB (Rigour + Rune Bolts).
- Teleporting away from people is too easy. Click Home Teleport and wait (in combat?; doesn't matter xD).
- No variety in drops whatsoever (Mammoths, Grizzly Bears, Skeletons, Giant Rats = DEAD content).
- Green Dragons can still be safe spotted.
- Elder Chaos Druids can be safe spotted.
- AFK CHECKERS IN THE WILD (SERIOUSLY?)

Now you have these Players who have grinded their Range and Prayer levels (for Rigour) 3-hitting level 80s to the point where they cannot out-eat or even attempt to teleport away. It's BROKEN. Honestly just disable Wilderness and focus on these mechanics being implemented before even thinking of re-opening it again.

Surely if you run a server like this you want it to be QUALITY not just chucking not very well thought out updates to the player base. The wilderness update has done NOTHING to boost player numbers and now Bandit has reduced the worlds to combat this which means everyone is getting annoyed at PKers simply hopping a handful of worlds all day for that sweet 20k loot...

IDK.. I feel like this update was a bit of a flop and there are some MAJOR issues that need to be addressed if the wilderness can ever be called 'properly implemented'.

Just my two cents of course.
 
Imagine getting an afk checker as you try to flee from an pker.
Get killed by afk checker. :D
 
On the bright side, there IS a wilderness where you can pvp. Granted, it may still lack very critical updates but it's there. Additionally, keep in mind that this server has recently gained momentum and that the dev team is really small (to my knowledge). They too also have real life stuff to handle on top of trying to maintain the server. Give it some time, the updates will come. On the several occasions I've tuned into Bandit's stream, he's always working on some type of code/update for the game, so he's definitely trying.
 
to combat these questions, yes the prayers aren't developed yet, it is just a project not a "need to be perfect" so requesting it can help but there are a lot of other more important things, i believe, in the list. we want to slowly increase everything, not just chuck lot of random stuff in and make everything prior to it redundant. The variety was a lot more than pre wilderness, it added some new monsters. You can't have all the drops because not all the skills are added in. (and seen from osrs with the crystals? for skotizo it doesn't work well/these skills might not be in for awhile). Due to just minecraft mechanics & several other things almost everything can/will be bale to be safe spotted. Having a flat floor won't look good & there are only a few ways to code it to allow for mobs to "attack" back. i believe AFK check has also been removed

You talk about people grinding to have an advantage then being annoyed they have an advantage? this makes no sense.
 
Aside from high emphasis and being agitated suggesting this wildy issue. At least it was a little constructive from all issues you suggested. You'd have to wait until these get implemented later. Plus, it's still in development.

Edited: Also I noticed we're responding to post with its last response has been a month ago. Does this guy still play anymore?
