99 should be max combat, opens up options for a fairly good variety of builds, keeps the playing field level, reachable achievement by casual or hardcore players, which is a big problem in OSRS deadman (players no lifing ruining the game for casual players). They've had like 20 deadman seasons and every one has had major flaws, it's not something that you can just get right, they offer all sorts now like an immunity if you start a week late, quests start to unlock over time, resource drops are buffed in relevant places, to encourage PKing. Without it all you just encouraging no lifing and people being scared to lose their stats and bank. The game mode shouldn't be HideManMode like it was before on here, need to actually encourage PKing.
Should be able to teleport away imo after 15 seconds of combat, dunno about logging out, besides there's only one world, what's stopping someone just camping you when you log out. I used to camp people who logged all the time, if you can teleport after xx seconds there's multiple places you could choose, person you tele from could give chase by trying to guess where you tele'd, making it a bit more exciting. I think you can do that already though, Idk, been ages since I played Deadman forgot what the tele rules were tbh
It's the same problem in OSRS deadman the guards are what is hated the most. Standing on some random fucking tile walking back and forth for 30 minutes in some random out the way spot to walk off your skull is just ridiculous it's time that could be spent PKing more players, it's just a total waste of time. It should be 15-20 minutes if you attack someone a lot lower than you, 7-10 minutes if its someone a closer level. RSC deadman will NEVER have thousands of players like OSRS does therefore having such long wait times is not viable
I personally am not going to play this season but I'm going to keep my eye out for the development and tweaking of the rules and mechanics, as it is, rewarding the ''top skiller'' means nothing, you're just rewarding the biggest no lifer and rewarding the ''top pker'' means nothing, you can't determine someones skill level when they just running round killing every AFKer/skiller they see, sorry but killing mostly naked or AFK people shouldn't determine who is the best PKer and wins that prize lol. Should be forcing people to fight at the end of the season and doing anything and everything you can to encourage PKing during the season, last deadman was absolutely ruined by skillers and I think that will continue to happen to be honest
