They mentioned in the livestream that (potentially) this would be the base form of the wand, but they would likely something later to upgrade it bringing it in line with the Dragon Hunter Lance and Crossbow. That is to say, I assume the upgraded version would probably be called the Dragon Hunter Wand, not this one.
New player, huh? Glad to see more and more joining the best MMORPG on the market. The OSRS team is exactly why this game keeps growing. They're certainly not perfect, but compared to other popular MMO companies, they are leagues ahead.
Brilliant changes! The wand is gonna be mega op when weaknesses hit, dragon bane and earth weaknesses! That’s absolutely nuts! Really looking forward to this content now, need need need this on my iron 😍
Clay pages, or more pointedly cuneiform pages Probably the closest historically to earth pages that we've had apart from etched stone. If we want to continue on the burnt theme: Eroded/weathered/crumbled
My guess is that they don't want to call it muddy pages because 'mud' already represents water and earth runes. So some players might think the book enhances both earth AND water-based spells. As far as a replacement, I think Primal Pages sounds catchy
Gonna put it out there for the best names I've seen for the pages (least favorite but still good, to my personal favorite) Fossilized Pages, Crumbling Pages, Petrified Pages
Idk if anyone said this, but how would blessed d'hide compare to this new range prayer set - will it focus more on prayer bonus or be an all-round upgrade, or be less armor and accuracy stats.
The staff being both earth based and dragon bane is unwise. What happens after project rebalance is implemented and a dragon is weak to water based attacks, does the staff become useless, even though it is dragonbane?

Each essence provides 1 charge. Consumed with special attack. The book looses its attuned benefits for as long at the charge count = 0 Unlocking: Grandmaster quest themed around unlocking the knowledge of Guthix and the power he incorporated into Runes. Creating of the book involves utilizing a magical essence on each of the elemental altars to imbue a creator's essence. Ultimately you will fight a boss requiring mastery of all the elements, and a technical magic based fight where in the end you unlock the secrets to merging all pre-listed requisites into the “Tome of the Creator”. Could include mini bosses for each respective element as well to learn how to imbue the creator's essence on each respective altar. Important Concepts: This book should be super powerful, reserved only to those who have dedicated the time and effort to truly become worthy of equipping it. Should be locked behind an achievable skill wall just like the inferno + Coliseum that revolves around hard work with a guaranteed payoff rather than an RNG based consumable. This should be a truly end game item representing ultimate power and utility earned by a player's dedication to the game. It is not an average item, so it should not be simply attainable by the average player. Special Attack should be a super strong elemental blast per the theme, however due to its major value in PVP, it should have high investment to use. Players utilizing this item would likely have endless cash as it is so dying with this item should cost them something they value (time) rather than disposable income. The imbuement of Creator's essence should be an untradable, timely process that relies on the player to go to each altar to actually create the resource. The Creator’s essence is that time cost. To aid with this concept, creators essence should not be storable in rune pouches to ensure a maximum of 20ish per inventory making the special attack a costly investment. Important to consider charge utilization with regular casting cost making the book accessible to ironmen. The special attack is intended for a high risk (cost), high reward PK KO potential. However general use should not be punishing to ironmen who have to grind for the pages themselves.
its much cleaner being dragonbane, as thats essentially what an Earth focused staff targets anyway, and this means you can use earth + getting the dragonbane weakness which will make it actually BiS for magic i imagine. it still suffers because of Tomes, which i hope they properly nuke into not having any % dmg on them and just being infinite runes, as locking the offhand to a tome for elemental is really restrictive on usability. but 5 tick is unfortunately not that great, as it means its usecase at Great Olm is just.. not that good.
the pot changes are good because it means pre-stacked Ranarr potions aren't suddenly needed for these new pots (which again, are *insane*. They essentially give you 3 extra inventory spots of prayer in Infern oattempts, which is one of the biggest buffs that content has ever seen.
I wish they added the prayer regen effect to an item over a potion i.e. an upgrade to the dragonbone necklace or something. It feels better to recycle older items and give them unique upgrades but maybe I’m missing something on why it’d be a bad idea, the effect in question doesn’t seem power creepy
I’m just interpreting this from the live stream but I’m not sure it’s meant to compete with the likes of blessed d hide, rather a higher prayer bonus and less attack bonus. Proselyte has the same defensive bonuses as Adamant so maybe this will have similar bonuses to blue or red d hide - if it even comes together at all!
I see a bunch of comments mentioning "dusty pages". What I'm more interested in is an actual "dusty tome" instead of a "tome of earth". It means Jagex won't just push ANOTHER tome for wind later on, and it also provides for more utility as this one provides neither accuracy nor a significant damage counter-part such as either water or fire tomes do. Simply: more utility, more charges per page, and let it cover two runes - now for balancing, there are more considerations, but I genuinely think there might be a point to creating a Tome of Dust rather than a Tome of Earth.
I mean Valarmore is THE mid level content, thematically these drops make sense.. the only thing that makes this feels weird is cause the other Tomes were just added into the game without much thought
@@BloodReaper95 it's seemed more useful the previous iteration, the 3t attack was really cool, now it just seems like an even more mid game staff to bypass dragon tasks
I don't think a dragonbane effect is going to let people start doing magic vorkath or hydra kills - vorkath has 150 magic and +240 magic defence, and hydra is 260 magic and +150 magic defence and dragonbane effect or not it's going to be splash city if you attempt to use magic on them. It could be alright against the lower tier metal dragons and the plain chromatic dragons, or olm mage hand - but even then I doubt it's going to be more effective than a plain old trident of the sea at high magic lvls.
If this comes out as a dragonbane weapon with the purpose to also being able to do magic vorkath or hydra, I think they would probably rebalance the defences of those bosses as well.
@@biertje234 My thinking is that they are going to avoid rebalancing the stats of monsters, which is why they are trying to go down this weaknesses route instead. I really hope I just don't understand correctly how they intend to implement these elemental weaknesses with magic and that it'll be more effective than what I think it is, because stuff like vorkath, hydra, cerberus etc just don't seem like bosses you'd ever use magic on even with an elemental weakness and weapon they're specifically weak to unless you have a weirdly restricted account. Also for a lot of it, it seems like you'd have a rough time using magic even if you could get reasonably good dps because your defence bonuses are extremely low with magic gear which probably isn't going to pan out great at a boss like vorkath or cerberus.
If you watched the live stream you would realise that alot of things were met with negative feedback, and i would wish youtubers could stay neutral with their opinions since they are influencers at the end of the day.
Dirty pages. Muddy pages implies that its earth and water. Maybe one day theyll make combination tomes and having a tome/pages called muddy would complicate that.
Dirty Pages is good enough, it follows the theme of Soaked and Burnt.
Agreed that's what i thought they should be named
Yeah dirty pages and then windy pages for the tome of air (TBA)
Dirty pages for a dirty book
hope they include nieve hentai
Not dusty pages?
petition to rename it to dragon hunter wand
Yea dueling wand name has to go, and dragon hunter wand sounds good and matches the other two
Nah
@@thefakebriskeh i love how this has a *Translate to English* option for me and it turns Nah into Now
Dragon smiting wand?

The OSRS team is so good at listening to the community, they should pride themselves on this.

As a member of the pvp community I wish I could agree.
It’d be more interesting if the earth book was a stone tablet and you just collect “earth” glyphs to add pages
Muddy Flaps
Just like my girl
roflmfao
ua-cam.com/video/Mb4fzjsuMYI/v-deo.htmlsi=WFSSjuTltnPecUWz
Soil pamphlets
Grimy pages
Pebble poems
Dirty pages seems like a good fit, decent pun too
Dusty pages/ mossy pages / crumbling pages I like those three
I like Dusty but probably has the same issue with confusing them for "mud" as "dust runes" also exist
I was going to say crumbling pages too, I like that idea
Brilliant changes! The wand is gonna be mega op when weaknesses hit, dragon bane and earth weaknesses! That’s absolutely nuts!
Really looking forward to this content now, need need need this on my iron 😍
So pumped to have elements matter - what’s proposed doesn’t really go far enough but it’s a start
Clay pages, or more pointedly cuneiform pages
Probably the closest historically to earth pages that we've had apart from etched stone.
If we want to continue on the burnt theme:
Eroded/weathered/crumbled
Needed this video! had no idea about the change(s). Love the editing n stuff too, definitely subbed look fwd to more updates/videos from you :D
More boss slayer masks would be awesome. Would love to see some DT2 boss helmets too
Soiled pages! Great video!
Sae Bae seal of approval ❤️

genuinely love your content brotha! very refreshing to see a new face in the scene with good production quality
I appreciate you man, thanks for the support
Rocky Pages, has a nice ring to it, and love the content! keep it up lad
The Ranged prayer set is what Sunfire fanatic supposed to be in earlier developments
mossy/crumbling pages. once upon a time writing was inscribed on sheets of thin copper or bronze i believe. copper pages? rusty pages?
Gonna put it out there for the best names I've seen for the pages (least favorite but still good, to my personal favorite)
Fossilized Pages, Crumbling Pages, Petrified Pages
Earthen pages. I do like the dirty pages suggestion
Was going to comment this. Really like it
i was literally just thinking about adding a draconic magic weapon
Petrified pages that others have mentioned is really good. But nothing wrong with Earthen pages right? Simple, too the point.
dusty pages (wait no thats already a rune too), what about
Sandy pages?
Rough pages....
Coarse pages!
Soiled paper
You can come to my toilet for that. I got loads. And I am in big production after that indian food and tequila last night
I immediately thought of "crumbly pages", I know crumble undead is already using the word crumble but that spell does use earth runes after all!!
Petrified pages
Call the pages sand paper ;) and when you examine them they can say "don't use to wipe"
Oh this is why the crossbow has shot up
Terra pages would be cool
best content creator atm, thank you scritic !!
Idk if anyone said this, but how would blessed d'hide compare to this new range prayer set - will it focus more on prayer bonus or be an all-round upgrade, or be less armor and accuracy stats.
The staff being both earth based and dragon bane is unwise. What happens after project rebalance is implemented and a dragon is weak to water based attacks, does the staff become useless, even though it is dragonbane?
Pretty sure the wand now loses the earth effects completely and will just have the dragonbane effect. The new tome will still be earth-based.

Grimey pages?
How about sheets of mica instead of muddy pages? Mica is a mineral found in soil that grows in thin flexible sheets and is heat resistant
Fossilized pages, buried pages, petrified pages
I'm sure something like "Earthbound Pages" would work
Crushed Pages....SInce, burnt is what happens from fire. Soaked is what happens from water, so...Crushed Pages works for getting rocks crushed at it.
I like this, they sound damaged in some way similar to burnt or soaked
Soiled Pages (Soil since Earth similar to burnt and soaked)
The brown notes
WHAT DOES MOD ASH WANT TO CALL THEM!?
If only there was a lightning tome which could have "the yellow pages"
wtf a dragonbane mid level magic item seems actually insane. its so crazy im not sure how i feel about it. could either be very cool or rlly stupid.

still really hoping they go back on the elemental weakness thing though

Where are you getting this info from? Osrs homepage has none of these changes listed
Old-School livestream, VOD might be up on their official UA-cam channel :)

yes please give us some range proselyte jagex

I think the reason muddy pages does not works is that mud runes are a thing and it sounds to close to that.
Dusty pages and in the future windy pages

I think stone pages or rocky pages would get the idea across without adding childish jokes.
The 50 pages of gray
muddy sounds fine to me
I got 99 farming and 99 crafting on my iron so if they introduce that ranged prayer set that's bot gonna be problem making it
