a skill area in wild is sending skillers to be lambs to the slaughter to pkers as they farm pk capes skulled kills, treating them like slaves and extorting them for the hard earnings they work for skillers. Pkers have no incentive not to be extremely toxic toward them, making fun of them for being skillers, telling them to pay tolls or die. Even as a flats skiller i'm like 74 lucky 3 hits to 700 deaths. Lvl3 skillers was totally a thing on rscrevolution, but you damn sure aren't going to see them in fort. It's too ez to kill skillers. It should be extremely high risk for a pker to pk a skiller and high reward to keep them alive. Without extortion of the skiller. Put in a gate that if pkers cross it they instantly drain all prayer and 50% stats when in pvp combat for 10 minutes. 2 chests 1 for pkers and 1 for skillers. That way the pkers get a reward instead of capping the fort and then twiddling there thumbs because they don't skill. Make all rune sets go to the chest u die in red skull area boom goes to chest, you better hold that fort down, or you lose all the sets. The skillers stay in the caged area. Pkers get points for holding pk chest if skillers are actively skilling in the skill area. That way pkers will be like "hey man come skill we need you buddy" instead of "u want to skill here i get all the loot u get nothing or u die, pay the toll nerds"

yes i concur with some of the suggestions iamttheironman has made. i believe pkers are notorious with their 'pay my toll to skill' and i believe this is very off-putting. would be interesting to see what evolves from some of the suggestions.

Make it wilderness, with legendary requirement (no rights buyable). Should make skilling fort a place for skillers.

what fuck would the point of that be? it's ment to be dangerous or they would just put it in varrock

Remove bank and loot chest and change it to clan terrs of old where farmed goods need to be collect on char and banked out of wild.

With a system where you have to win control In 2 hour intervals via team battle area or even as a reward for 1v1 tournament, you could even run a lottery type system where you can buy tickets 50k each and instead of winning the jackpot you win fort control that way you can balance ticket costs vs potential profit of farming.

The winning team can then farm npcs that only drop pk supplies (casts food and pot certs) and maybe a stronger more diffcult farm npc (kbd level) that drops higher denominations of above items and normal level rune items. Other clans being able to raid and pk anybody who is brave enough to mass up enough drops.

Dont really care for skiller aspects you could Move a skiller fort to east wild so it is 1 v  only l. Could go low lol Varrock east wall or revamp ranged area and incorporate into a skillera area.You can keep red skull feature for any level attack and keep risk level up the reward of easier skilling. Or move it out of wild and make it a clan guild with a team skill level requirements.

1. Disable protect items. This is supposed to be dangerous, not somewhere for 1 iteming trash.
2. Disable protect from missiles, that prayer is trash and needs to be reworked entirely.
3. Make it so you have to pick up drops, then picking them up sends drops to chest. Afking herbs without needing to pick up is OP.
4. Make leaving fort area require standing still for a minute, and no logging out in there.
5. Make it so a person needs to have been in a team for 12 hours before they can go to fort. This stops people jumping to whatever team holds fort. There is too much peace agreements in the wild which makes for less pking, and this just just facilitates that.

Mod Macy is trying to revive the fort, not kill it.

There is 50% extra xp and a lot of benefits to be there. It isn't going to die, however it needs balancing and incentives aligning. If you want to discuss my individual points that is fine. But the goal is not to have half the server at fort. It also shouldn't be a problem to have fort empty at times. What is a problem is the 1 guy 1 iteming at chaos druids, with no pker incentive to kill him.

Literally everything I do someone cries and says it's OP. I could farm cows and someone would cry and say its OP. I just go that hard. You make 1/3rd an hour afking herbs that you would picking flax, get real. It only seems OP because I put more time in the game than most others

So I don't need to be on a team to skill there?

I might check it out...

Delete it

Delete it

I don't agree an area with no multi is needed for new teams who can't login 1000 alts

Yeah, it's great for when numbers are too big/not enough alts, you move to fort.

I think armour sets should go to the bank again like it used to, so there's reason to fight over the chest again.

All tjese master inputs of people thats do not even use fort or hold it lol
