A good raid requires good rewards from StevenCao's blog



Old School Runescape runescape mobile gold, the antiquated model of Runescape that still looks and plays like the game I sank countless hours in to when I actually should have been studying, is obtaining a raid. Its next raid, as it happens: The Theatre of Blood. A good raid requires good rewards, therefore when the Theatre of Blood was declared late last year, players were anxious to see what clearing the multi-man challenge could make them. Jagex reacted with Justicar armor, a brand new best-in-slot armor place (above). There was one small problem: gamers absolutely hated it.

They memed on it so hard that Jagex is now completely changing the armor's design. And not only that, the artist behind the Justicar armor,"Mod West," is using layouts submitted and voted on by players. Almost all of Old School Runescape's upgrades undergo participant polls, but that is the first time a suit of armor has been forged in a fire of memes.

The irony is that while players loathed the'closing' armor shown earlier this year, they adored the prototypes revealed while the raid was declared. Originally, the Justicar armor was bulkier and part of a trio of armor sets, West informs me, but as the Theatre of Blood moved from obscure concept to actual content, the armor changed with it. Participants said there was enough DPS gear but insufficient tank equipment, so it had been narrowed down to only 1 armor set. And when they were just going to use one set, Jagex guessed they might as well create a new one based on the armor worn by the raid's huge bad.

"We believed changing it up a bit made sense," West says,"but players weren't quite on board with the first proposal we shared on stream.

The memes came hard and fast. Some players said it was too much like existing buy OSRS gold armor, such as armor out of Runescape 3, the newer, mainline version of Runescape. Others believed the new armor didn't look tanky enough and generously provided a few alternatives, with some calling for a more drastic redesign.
