Proselyte is the equivalent of adamant with a 20 prayer requirement, make the prayer ranged gear the equivalent of red d'hide but with the prayer bonus. i mean, you'll be using it doing slayer where the monsters have nada defense anyway, no different to sacrificing strength bonus while wearing pros.
I won't ever get rid of my Zamorak Dragonhide. The aesthetic is too priceless to me. It's the closest you can get to looking like a Power Ranger without Crystal
Yea and with the price of blessed dhide, ar least for now for mains its probably gonna be cheaper for a good while, or forever depending on drop rates. Imo its nice that theres a step between dhide and armadyl now
Not only that, but I'm proud to have follow the god of ambition and power seekers in game. I've gotten my hands on armor for all three combat styles dedicated to him. This includes Blessed Rune, Dagon-Hai, and Priest Vestments all dedicated to Zamorak. The Zamorak Dragonhide is my current go to for bossing at moment because of where it's defenses sit at. Also, a near 200 Ranged attack helps.(I combo with Dragon Crossbow) I just can't wait for the price to go down for me to make a mixed set for GWD.
Everyone worried about blessed D'hide but this also makes karil's worse and even bridges the gap closer to armadyl. Also it has no downsides to it, where the armadyl has negative melee bonuses and the karils trades off melee def for more magic defence, also they both need 70 defence to wear and this needs 40.
Ideally they nerf god d'hide to the stats of black d'hide to make it the cosmetic it was always meant to be, up the defence level of this new gear to 50 or 60, then buff karil's and armadyl's. Karil's shouldn't compete with a 40 def armor idk why it has been that way for so long
Your GFX, SFX, and editing are genuinely top tier in OSRS content, and the content you produce is super engaging. Hope to see some deserved growth this year as you continue to deliver awesome stuff. 10k is just the start, gz!
I do agree with account progressions shouldnt be tied to clue scrolls. Imagine if BIS was 3rd age items. But wait we already had a taste of that. The 3rd age bow was BIS at BA which while not big significantly jacked the price up to its 700-800m at the time. Imagine if that was for other pieces of content people would riot.
Jagex proposed 3tick magic wand like two times. The first is on TOA reward but changed to 5tick BIS two-handed. the second time proposed on Varlamore reward but changed 5tick Dragonbane magic weapon
appreciate the effort you put in your vids, the transitions, rs font, background panning like the rs2 login screen when ur talking, the making of place holder items, nice
I think if it would be slightly worse than blessed d'hide, that would be perfect. You won't lose out on gear progression if you don't want to do clues, but if you do you get a bit of a bonus
Doing clues should be bonus content for the most part. Glad we finally got something progression appropriate. And the pray bonus on blessed was already next to none.
Activities around varlamore could add cosmetics to the ranged armour (similar to diff blessed chide colours). E.g 1k sunfire splinters for orange, bone shards for white, etc.
I don't think the wand will be that strong, it'll probably be very good at Olm but the shadow will probably still be bis there. Other than that it'll only be used for metal dragon and drake tasks. The ancient scepter and master wand will still be used because of their ability to autocast ancients and the trident of the swamp will still be a tick faster.
Skeletal wyverns it would be more useful than a dhcb they have higher range defense than magic defense, but yeah, it won't be a broken item, but it can definitely be good for training magic and hp while making some gp
@@user-jc3pl3de8b Ya, but magic defense is heavily impacted by magic level and even though their magic defense is low their magic level is high so tbh idk how the dps would compare. I think inquisitor/dhl on crush would still be better than both the wand and dhcb.
@@Nick-ij5nt the lance is definitely the best there but you'll still be hitting hard with magic I have a feeling they will add some kind of new dragon weak to magic also with the weaknesses coming you could be hitting extremely hard with magic it might not be very powerful when it first comes out and might even be cheap but when the balancing comes I think it will be way more powerful if it's cheap a week or 2 after release I'll buy one because the weaknesses with magic is really going to buff the DPS a dragonbane wand+water weakness+water tomb+augury you honestly might be hitting rapid 40s and 50s and even some 60s I think we'll have to wait before it becomes powerful and you might be able to snatch it up for cheap on the first week or 2 of release
@Nick-ij5nt the magic weakness update just came out today and let me tell you at bbd with just ahrims level 92 magic and only a master wand with a tome of water and water surge im hitting in the mid 40s on them the wand is going to be really good man adding another 50% accuracy and 25% damage is going to be really really good
I totally forgot you get blessed d'hide from clue scrolls lol that's good they are circumventing the need to clue scrolls progression. Me and my iron buddies waiting for those ranger boot drop still :( three ranger hat deep tho
idk about the mid game, but for high level, blessed dragon hide is only used at GWD. so at least for high lvl its still only used there. not much has changed there
As an iron who was spooned on his blessed dhide. It’s good they are filling a gap between blessed dhide and armadyl/masori. As well as something that still retains its use afterwards for afk slayer or other prayer hungry pvm. Blessed dhide will still have its niche in gwd but I think it’s good we are moving on from blessed dhide and allowing other things to fill that gap and it takes this once DOA content and makes it a meaningful and important step in pvm progression.
Absolutely braindead to complain that clue scroll items are no longer important progession. Mage and range have been absolute trash in terms of main and iron progression and Jagex should absolutely be ashamed of themselves that ranger boots were and are required for pegs and that eternals are still garbage. We've had literally a decade of whips being easily buyable while anything remotely similar dps in range and mage have to be nerfed and extremely expensive to upkeep.
They should differentiate this further from other ranged armour of the same tier. Karils already is the magic defense, Blessed dhide have better melee defenses and some prayer. Maybe they should make this one have higher ranged defense but terrible melee defenses. Would go along pretty well with prayer bonus tbh
I hope the harm orb will still be better on dragons. I was looking forward to seeing harm orb have a nice use in the game because of how cool and rare it is
add more prayer bonus, half the defense bonus and im sure thatll fix the dependency on the new range gear. it has the same prayer but more defence than crystal at this point
The upgraded blessed d’hide is just such a boring unoriginal reward. They tried pitching this with colloseum and it was a shit idea then. Come up with a more unique idea for the hides of the new boss
On my Ironman, I have nearly 200 hard clues done and not a single blessed dhide body. I went from black dhide to crystal, and now have fortified masori. No blessed dhide body yet. It's absolutely stupid that I had to go so long without a ranged upgrade because of bad rng at clue scrolls. I think it's fine to replace it. Just a reminder, the only reason black dhide was nerfed is because there aren't any upgrades until gear which costs millions. Blessed Dhide was always supposed to be a relative sidegrade, similar to god rune armor sets.
For the pages of it's not been said, why not grimy pages. Already got grimy herbs so using the it's not much of a jump for using it as another term for earthy
I hope they give it a cool item model and not just a stupid master wand reskin as seen in this video. Would love to see more sceptres or staves similar to the nightmare staff that gets away from the basic wooden staff look. Could really make something special with this and hopefully we could see more mid tier mage offhands since range now has dhide shields to bridge that gap for its combat style.
Can't wait for ugly god d'hide to be dethroned honestly. It should have been nerfed with black d'hide, since it's supposed to be a cosmetic variant like the god rune armors. The boots can stay since there's no black d'hide equivalent.
On my ironman I always thought blessed dhide was useless and skipped doing any hard clues to i was well into the end game anyways. Same as black dhide with a little prayer? I just used black d hide. What do you even need prayer for b4 rigour?
The Blessed D'Hide has higher defensive stats. Years ago pkers could use Black D'Hide and it was very very cheap but still had good stats so there was no risk, so the defensive stats were nerfed (and on the other D'Hide sets too) heavily but retained the same values on Blessed D'Hide, along with the +1 prayer.
As an ironman, with a full blessed dhide set, the "issue" with it is that its lock behind clue scroll I got very lucky but ik ppl with 5x my number of clue completed with less piece then I have. I dont mind RNG in an MMO but I dontt think mid-game equipemenmt should be lock behind it, especially when you look at game mode like ironman
Oh that wand is easy to pronounce.. (huey - hyoo ee) for coatl - say Queztalcoatlus which was a prehistoric bird which has coatl in it) so hueycoatl (hyoo ee coatl) edit: hyoo ee kahtoll) unless if you know a better way to say coatl, its how i pronounce it.
1. "Buried pages." 2. Is it just me that is triggered by there being a dragonbane magic weapon? Dragons are weak to magic, so the whole concept seems ill-fitting.
I think Blessed God d'hide will still fit perfectly fine in the iron progression pipeline where it has the benefit of working as protection in GWD. Ranged is a good style against pretty much all of the bosses in an iron's progrssion path where Blessed d'hide would be relevant, so having armour that is both protection against the minions outside and decent to take on the bosses themselves will still remain valuable for a long time in an iron's life. Also the fact that god d'hide boots remain unchallenged by this update seems to still keep the update relevant. I think a more relevant counterpoint to them stating they don't want to make more upgrades to items from clue scrolls would be Devout Boots, which were released 5 years ago and covers prayer rather than BiS DPS output like Pegasians. There's a precedent for it, but personally I think it's for the best that item upgrades of already existing items should be kept to a minimum. When they straight up vertically increase the power of an item that was previously the best, it makes sense for the new item to require the previous best item to make sure the content doesn't lose its relevancy and also prevents the item dropping in price. But when they release an item that is just a better version of the fourth best recommended items at certain bosses, then the "upgrade" idea is just an annoying extra step since the item is already outclassed by other options. When they add a horizontal power-increasing item like this, there's no need for it to require a previous item.
Again updates should not and should never take into account irons, they decided to be irons and nobody forced them. So what if they get affected, grind then.

@andrewv2782 ranger boots. Not bis immediately but eventually turns into bis range boots
@@RagingKarma2 Those are also not particularly rare but given the video surrounded blessed d'hide I figured that is what you were talking about
3rd age melee should have better stats than torva fight me

Its not 3tick anymore only 5
Jagex needs to take into account future upgrades , also remember blowpipe in pvp?
@WarlordEXO-jg1ov he literally mentions that in his comment
gear progression being apart of clues has always been one of the worst aspects of the game in regards to achieving new gearing goals

its detrimental to ironman, so the update caters to them.
Clues are the best content in game. I will vote no to this with all my uims. Boo
No. You just hate grinding.
@@NanomachineExE nah clues are trash.
appreciate the effort you put in your vids, the transitions, rs font, background panning like the rs2 login screen when ur talking, the making of place holder items, nice
Theyre gonna have to change all magic weapons because as it stands rn, this is the go-to and will allow you to skip tons of staves
I think if it would be slightly worse than blessed d'hide, that would be perfect. You won't lose out on gear progression if you don't want to do clues, but if you do you get a bit of a bonus
Slightly worse, and then a very difficult to get item you can use to upgrade it just a little bit better than blessed dhide.
what if the new boss introduced a way to make dragon arrpwtips
Keep it up! You're my go to guy for runescape news!
Doing clues should be bonus content for the most part. Glad we finally got something progression appropriate. And the pray bonus on blessed was already next to none.
I'm all for the new armor sets. Having additional mid game options is never a bad thing for mains or irons
As an iron i can see the Wand becoming better than my trident for Olm mage hand pre shadow which is a really nice change
Appreciate the extra explanations on how the rewards might impact the gear meta, good or bad.
Activities around varlamore could add cosmetics to the ranged armour (similar to diff blessed chide colours). E.g 1k sunfire splinters for orange, bone shards for white, etc.

why did no one say Crumpled Pages? when you drop a book on the ground they tend to get crumpled up
They should differentiate this further from other ranged armour of the same tier.
Karils already is the magic defense, Blessed dhide have better melee defenses and some prayer. Maybe they should make this one have higher ranged defense but terrible melee defenses. Would go along pretty well with prayer bonus tbh
I always get excited when I find a new OSRS content creator.
The high prayer bonus with very little defence would make a lot more sense for the ranged armor. It should not replace the god d'hide.
I hope the harm orb will still be better on dragons. I was looking forward to seeing harm orb have a nice use in the game because of how cool and rare it is
They should have made a illuminated blessed d hide set
add more prayer bonus, half the defense bonus and im sure thatll fix the dependency on the new range gear. it has the same prayer but more defence than crystal at this point
