[@Tooimpulsive]

In my opinion the boots should be bis crush boots, give them 4 str bonus and like 10 crush bonus or something so they actually have a use since spiders are normally weak to crush and keep the web effect. Also think the halberd’s spec should be changed to be a slightly buffed crystal hally spec that has a guaranteed chance to venom a target if it can be. Would also be cool to be able to combine the halberd with the scythe to make a venom scythe like the og noxious scythe and give it extra range but that might be a bit busted. I do agree with your thoughts on the rancor tho but 16 str bonus is 6 str bonus over a tort and 8 over a fury is kind of insane when you think about it from a slayer boss especially. Should make it like 12-14 imo and wait for another upgrade to hit that next threshold, would be much healthier for the game and the progression of it instead of making another occult situation.

[@KillnlootPK]

I don't agree with the Occult change or see an issue with a +16 str necklace as a new BIS melee necklace. Amulets have always been one of your biggest sources of damage in this game; traditionally they would always give a much bigger DPS bonus than any of your armor pieces. A Strength ammy has +10 strength bonus, and a guaranteed 2 sometimes 3 max hits and costs 1k. Would a new BIS amulet that gives 4 max hits on most weapons be such a bad thing for the game?

[@x_Krios]

I agree

[@CapeSkill]

@@KillnlootPK yes it would be.

[@DaemonRayge]

Honestly, the Halberd special attack should have been x5 instead just x1. No one is gonna wait until 20 venom for 20% more accuracy and damage, which is a baseline for most special attacks. It might be also funny cheese as well if it was at x5 vs K'rill which has a 16 poison. 80% bonus accuracy and damage. Hitting over 100 possibly in a single blow.

[@GospelFire]

5x would make it a pretty interesting pvp weapon too, would add risk to using serp/toxic staff

[@GnomonkeyRS]

I have a feeling araxxor will push the venom cap but we'll see

[@lightking1000]

Its still an awkward concept, because it provides no immunity and the spec cost is too high to consistently clear poison. you would need to either actively forego poison immunity to get repoisoned and tank a lot of poison damage inbetween specs, or use very low tier antipoisons inbetween specs regens. Overall it doesn't seem worth the hassle of juggling immunity & repoisoning considering the other damage specs we have available

[@zuhaar]

It kind of makes sense that they added blood fury as melee tanks hits from all 3 styles but mage and range only have to tank the 2 but it really should have been a standalone item with minimal stats. That way it would have given them room to introduce specific dps amulets for specific styles

[@mikaelcrucible]

i can see why people disagree with some of your opinions, but having the melee amulet be the "i don't need the healing crutch" amulet like bfury is impossible to argue against, it's how it should've been from the start

[@zcsully3184]

I would like to see a different melee weapon or maybe 2 other weird weapons for range/mage (maybe a minimal blowpipe upgrade or swamp upgrade) coming from the boss so it has the feel of the rs3 choice! I also completely agree with your amulet proposal and it should take an avernic or something to complete it for that 5-7% increase! I also saw something about Noxious Ornament kits for the trio of megarares (tbow scythe staff) on reddit and it looked cool!

[@rsdudetsom]

4:52 you were thinking of fight caves thats the only example i could think of

[@KillnlootPK]

I get that the Noxious Halberd seems underwhelming (and maybe needs to be better than it is, who cares if it's BIS in a few bosses?), but as a veteran player who just now is completing DT2 and doesn't have full max gear, a stepping stone between Tent Whip and Soulreaper Axe/Scythe would feel really good at Duke and Vardorvis. It sucks to have to spend my Arclight charges and worry about maintaining a 4-tick cycle at Duke because I can't afford Scythe and don't want to settle for Zombie Axe. This weapon has the potential to fill that niche; especially with the idea of it being another venom weapon to use against the very few bosses that are poisonable bringing the serp helm back into the meta on a few bosses. I would also love it if they added some more bosses in the future that could be envenomed or poisoned because those mechanics have never really had a place that doesn't feel totally irrelevant imho.

[@currentcommerce4774]

im personally hoping the remove venom immunity from a few of the older bosses, or even some raid bosses. it would be cool if zebak/akkha/baba were vulerable to venom so maybe it would be worth having a "venom guy" in the raid

[@bendover2077]

My boy, firelight is coming out, unlimited charged better arc light that will likely compete with scythe at duke. Blade is better than tent whip also for both duke and vard

[@GamersKnowYourPlace]

They could easily add something like damage against spiders / spider minions or recovery of run speed when a web would normally hit to the boots just to give it a little something to make it worth while, they seem so weak right now

[@Ulyssesyo]

Totally agree it's disappointing seeing Araxxor downgraded to a slayer boss. Your amulet proposal sounds great, and it'd be a cool drop if they went back to the drawing board on this and gave Araxxor the difficulty he deserves.

[@rhystaylor5623]

How do you know it's downgraded? Just because you need a slayer requirement to kill doesn't mean it won't be the toughest mofo in game 😂 might just be for end game content keeping zaryte jewelry effect for mid tier.

[@lightking1000]

The only thing they mentioned is that the boss is easier than Awakened DT2 bosses, this kinda implies that it's still harder than the normal Dt2 bosses.

[@GnomonkeyRS]

They mentioned it would not be difficult. Araxxor in Rs3 on release had difficulty and dropped BiS.

Everyone poll that rancor should be stronger. Was expecting a diss video on the overall proposed content but actually really valid points regarding the rancor ammy. Thanks for the DPS calcs and recs

[@Jomonji]

I wished the new BIS amulet was more than just an upscale torture (+5 combat stats over torture and no defensive stats). Other than a higher strength bonus, a passive effect or hell even defensive stats on top of the combat stats would have been better than how it is right now. Maybe that’s just me though

[@azilux]

I was hoping for the noxious scythe, staff and bow to come back but as slayer weapons, could be a nice way to do slayer with BIS weapons grinding for money on slayer tasks, but sadly not

[@stooge389]

The Halberd may not be BIS, but it's filling in a BIG whole in the gear progression. Tentacle whip to Saeldor is a HUGE leap in cost. Your choices at that level are a 3m tent whip (if it's even that much anymore) or a 140m Saeldor which also needs costly crystal shards to use, or requires like 40m worth of crystal shards to corrupt. Either way, there's a HUGE hole in the slash weapon progression to fill in, so I'm still excited for it. However, I don't like the special attack. I don't like the idea of it requiring some outside factor in order to be useful. That means the special attack only has value in situations where you actually could be venomed, which are VERY rare. I hope they change it because as it is, that's kinda useless.

[@VorzydAu]

Make a lot of good points about making rancor amulet more of a competent players choice.

[@ericknutson8310]

If its a halberd in the sense it gets 1 extra attacking tile. Wouldnt it be good at p2 for the attack cycles you cant be directly next to verzik for?

[@ericknutson8310]

I asked that right before you mentioned it in the video...

[@1davidj]

it'll still be worse than scy/soulreaper which lose 1/16 ticks to dodging bounce, and saeldor doesn't lose ticks since it matches verzik's attack speed. it's theoretically easier since you can't get bounced, but since your attacks won't drag you anymore you just risk getting hit by cabbages instead, so i don't think it's much easier. I've tried shadow p2 and it feels more awkward than just meleeing

[@bloodforfeit4756]

Could this be a boss that drops bloodshards?

[@gothboi4ever]

[@Knifing4Dayz]

Never everyone would flip tf out

[@einjharrelraca]

honestly,i think the halberd should have a spider bane effect on it, and then adjust the stats so that it isnt better than scythe at verzik, but still better than saeldor there. would have given it a really nice niche. As for the new melee amulet, eh. its what torture should have been in the first place, because all the other zenyte stuff is just way better.

[@coffeetoaster]

Adding a blood shard to a fury should have always reduced the furys stats by some amount of you ask me so there is a real trade off. The power creep from guthans to blood shard is wild

[@JoebsonOSRS]

I wish they would've made it drop lots of bis and made it a big boss like rs3 fuck a slayer boss like honestly

[@DMredacted]

This is going to be the new meta for melee-only Fight Caves combat achievement.

[@Antasco]

imo Halberd special should: Cost 25%, heal for the amount the venom/poison would have ticked and increase damage of your next attack by 20% (or higher if they change the venom max hit), still a niche use but its league better than 60% spec cost and lack of damaging hit (no one is waiting 2 minutes for venom to hit its highest)

The halberd should hit 2x per swing not quite par with scythe but a half step for big targets think of it as the bowfa to a tbow.

[@TravagGames]

Bowfa to tbow = soulreaper to scythe. You cant make this halberd better or even close to soulreaper.. its bis niche need to come from its range utility that needs cooking or intentional boss design; ie.. hitting levis weak spot, lizardmen shamans afk, designing a boss/phase where you cant be in melee range either bc of damage (imagine whisp but melee weakness) or just unable to reach otherwise.

[@ajking1017]

Noxious halberd seems like a really beginner friendly way of clearing Colloseum; if you don't get offered myopia, you have the ability to safespot mobs with the defensive bonuses of melee armor and you can hit Sol Heredit without moving much during his normal attacks. It may not be a BIS weapon but as you mentioned, it's not that far behind better options. I could see it being recommended in some places.

[@Binga_rs]

You would still move the same at Sol as he always closes the distance and moves into melee range

[@AdxmRL]

Heres a comment to help with algorithm, and also a place i can vent my thoughts. The halbred is op for pvp if used as a whack weapon like ags when youre out of spec, i doubt it will be used that way but depending how useless itll be for pvm considering its essentially 2h tent whip dps equivalent for most bosses. it may be an inexpensive pvp upgrade for ags accounts. Not a big fan of that personally until they make voidwaker 55%spec in pvp due to its sheer OP ness. Voidwaker is an 80m cheatcode for 200 free damage in a pvp deep wildy outlast fight. Simply put a lot of these updates devalue a lot of the old content on accident and make the wilderness more dead without proper balancing. Its so hard to go into the wilderness as it is with the bots and AHKers, let alone when they have a tick faster ags whack that can venom you. as far as the amulet and boots, the amulet should need to be combined with torture imo, because it makes gorillas a waste of time to go for and onyx a waste as well for ironmen. As far as mains go the amulet just further devalues torture so whatever thats fine. All in all we nerfed occult because it comes from a slayer boss and did a whole magic rework to simply add another slayer boss BIS necklace??? Wtf gagex.

[@suffer8318]

how is hally a good pvp weapon.. shits dead content man... its a stepping stone for irons who use tent but didnt get lucky enough to get a 2nd enhanced from CG and thats literally it... no use case for a regular account to ever use it.. better off going from whip > tent whip > salad non corrupt if you got the cash > soul reaper axe > scythe

[@constantdemonics]

I saw an idea to make the amulet a component to upgrade the torture ammy

[@ClLouID]

I hate the arraxor idea because it takes everything away from the boss thats great. Its not going to be difficult and theyve already acknowledged that, when theyre releasing boots that help you scuff verzik webs and ignore ideal olm placement in flame phass that tells me everything i need to know. Theres one item thats interesting and like you said, it needs a buff, so the rewards are meh too

[@MegaChickenfish]

3:20 "One of the least interesting" then I hear "BETWEEN TENT WHIP AND SEALDOR FOR DPS" I do think a weapon between one that is about 3m and one that is *145m* could find some uses by players. I particularly heard it's useful for not having to deal with that brutally difficult step-back during Verzik (for reference, I can do Duke and woox-walking Vorkath now, which are comparable tick-based attacking, and much easier), which is still the hardest mechanic in theater for me and one of the reasons that part of my quest cape took me a while. Combine that with the boots and TOB seems a *lot* more accessible to players. Depending on how expensive these rewards end up being. It's a toss-up considering the price of the BIS magic amulet and BIS melee boots, both from high end slayer bosses.

[@alexwells3031]

The halberd won't change the fact that you still have to move during p2 verzik, if you're learning the timing for the bombs, it's the same as the timing for the bounce anyways if you're using 4t weapon😂😂😂 using this weapon would actually cause you to develop an unhealthy way of fighting p2 VV

Great video as always 👍🏽.

[@Nebesus]

The problem with the occult is that it was single handedly the best piece of magic gear, not that it came from a slayer monster, besides the amulet of rancor comes from a slayer boss that *should* be relatively hard? Where the occult literally came from enemies you would ice barrage and ig a boss that some people might kill.

[@BoHorn]

I mean sure but barrows gloves is like, a bare minimum goal on an account, same for defender, dboots, fury, torso, b ring, whip, trident, blowpipe, rcb and in time the zenyte jewelry. Its extremely realistic to expect all that to take much less time than getting an occult and none of that content is difficult. Simply fact is that most good and useful gear that is not raids table is pretty low difficulty. Is it an issue that its BIS? I mean… I guess? But in the light of other much easier to obtain gear, thats its only flaw, which really just speaks to the longstanding neglect for mage as an attack style. Its no coincidence the outcry got louder after Shadow.

[@Nebesus]

@@BoHorn no, the problem was that it was single handedly better than all other magic equipment combined if you counted for magic damage, barrows gloves or whatever isn't better than all strength boosting armor pieces Remember during trail blazer leagues where people had to take the region just for the occult cuz it was better than full ancestral?

[@BoHorn]

@@Nebesus I get that, and I agree w the rebalance of mgc dmg, my point is that attk style has always been shit and poorly balanced. I remember learning the modern state of the game years ago and learning how trivial the gear upgrades were there. I dont blame the occult for actually being useful, I blame the poor balancing of ancestral, eternal, off hands etc. this only really irritates me because they are simply going to put in the next “occult” neck into another piece of content.

Love the new vid🤙 Would the new araxxor Amulet make echo boots bis at a lot more places? (-2 str from prims, +2 from araxxor amulet)

[@GnomonkeyRS]

No

[@getwreck3d13]

Here are some drop ideas cosmetics for shadow and sythe but you gotta build the cosmetics aka making them worth a bunch

[@WellDoneOnTheInternetEverybody]

The current Rancor is far too strong for PvP as is let alone with all these buffs a lot of people are proposing. Wouldnt the more balanced approach be either: 1. Give torture the ability to become a blood torture (possibly increased charge cost) 2. Same as 1, but also slightly nerf BF and then leave BT in it's current place in terms of healing.

[@currentcommerce4774]

its +2 str over a str ammy lol anyone actually risking that is dropping bank loot for barely any more power

[@WellDoneOnTheInternetEverybody]

@@currentcommerce4774 1 max hit is huge in various pvp setups and its just a general power creep issue

[@KioTheProducer]

​@@WellDoneOnTheInternetEverybody nobody gives a fuck about pvp

[@WellDoneOnTheInternetEverybody]

@@KioTheProducer Just because you don't PvP or enjoy doesnt mean it wont drastically affect the entire game. Farming a voidwaker blade as an ironman or clogger for that matter requires an engagement with PvP. Idk about you but I would rather not see it become easier to AGS spec a fucking 90+ lmao

[@guusgeluk3693]

@@WellDoneOnTheInternetEverybody pvp has been having the most insane powercreep since bowfa release basicily. dont understand you drawing the line at a +2 str bonus lmao.

Solid video gnomeman.

[@michaelholt5014]

i agree it kinda bummed me out it was gonna be a slayer boss level encounter. A very difficult boss that doesn't require waves to get to sounds fun.

[@ecxstatic8155]

they bringing shit like this out but ruined my serp in pvp. makes sense

[@zakuknoxx6060]

Wait soooo torture is dead content now ?

[@vincent3793]

Rs3 combat just looks horrible im so glad they got osrs back

[@Nemisis-fq3nh]

I wish rs3 combat was easier that boss looks awesome

[@Vinhiee]

Make it be an amulet of blood torture option instead pls Jagex 🥺

Halberd should be really good for Duke

i edge to gnomonkey's youtube voice

Name of the music?

[@GnomonkeyRS]

Music is from DOOM

[@StickyRS]

Or be able to add bloodshards to the new amulet

[@rashdan1994]

Anti venoms if this project pass = 📈📈

[@shockerct4433]

I wish it was the same as rs3

[@Screamn.]

I'll use the new boots to escape pkers while soloing Venenatis

[@Ben_Gates]

Amulets strength bonus should be base 12 with 20 accuracy and increase in both depending on your venom and poison severity.

[@slimzo9384]

Blood fury was basically engineered in a lab to be the most boring possible item. Method to obtain is horrifically boring, chargescape is boring, and constant healing > dps is boring. They should nerf it into orbit.

[@simonpvo2]

Araxxor back then wasn't that hard compared to some of the content we got in OSRS today imo

[@almostfamous1685]

I’ve been saying this as well with the rancor

[@lampisfun1139]

Jagex: *makes ported RS3 content* Community: Nooo! Thats stupid! dont just port over content exactly the same! Jagex: *makes content from RS3 but changes it* Community: Nooo! Make it the same as RS3, its good content!

[@McVollman]

I’m just more so excited for another slayer boss. The halberd is an absolute joke and usually bosses in osrs have uniques that are best for said boss. So to me the halberd doesn’t seem like the proper fit.

[@falseheadgossip1700]

that halberd is just horrible. a 3rd 5 tick slash weapon in the last year is crazy. wish it were at least at soulreaper tier strength, it would be interesting to search for utility with the extra melee distance, but there’s no point on a weapon this weak.

[@dntrell]

thanks for not shitting on rs3 for no reason

[@Whoopgnash1]

does not even mention what it will do to pvp

[@garystill1308]

+12 on the new amulet is fine because we will surely get new better t90 prayers one day like turmoil so any more str bonus will make max hits even more crazy

[@EndlessFootball]

More likely we get more str bonus than turmoil or any new prayers. Every time jagex flirts w new prayers, they get scrapped before they’re even put to vote

[@garystill1308]

@@EndlessFootball ye it's pretty lame, could easilly just add the original curses with a few stat adjustments and a few new things thrown in from maybe a miniquest that requires wgs and dt2
