RuneScape gold occasionally since 2015 and I have played with later at least 5 years of inactivity. Even to this day I feel slightly overwhelmed with of the features, pop ups and events; treasure hunter, cosmetics, the vast amount of distractions and diversions etc. and they are not even core aspects of RuneScape in my opinion; skills and quests are the cornerstones. Evolution of combat took some getting used to however was worth it. I still use the legacy port for the time being. I can sympathise with these OSRS players coming and feeling lost and overwhelmed.

The bigger question is why are OSRS players even giving RS3 a go. RS3 hasn't done anything big to enhance player experience that was brand new and OSRS had a Darkmeyer expansion. So, the new player experience was updated by Jagex prior to that, it was the Ashdale tutorial. But from what I could gather, OSRS players have been burnt out (someone said leagues before as being a possible reason) and are likely just looking at RS3 as something familiar, yet distinct, while they wait out the burn.

I Would like to listen to your OSRS remarks

Gotta not consider slayer as a"ability". Its really different to every skill. I go into a tree when I train woodcutting, and I train woodcutting. Same thing applies for almost every single skill minus a couple of combination skill methods (underwater agility/thieving for example) and some different ones such as Farming (where you still"go do a farm run" but you also do one then go off doing other things and also the time spent farming is extremely fast). I do not conduct slayer to"only train slayer". Its relaxing and going in an afk job like Gargoyles, or bursting to train my magical in the catacombs, or performing a boss with higher damage and accuracy while on job (or even a slayer boss, in that).

The one thing slayer does is unlock new monsters / supervisors for me to go and try. The ability concentrated on. Im training combats, magic, range, making GP doing fun bossing etc.. In addition, don't begin slayer at low combat, thats the main mistake newer players make since they hear"slayer is the best". Plus it stinks at low combat because theres not one of those fun things I have talked about and your tasks are slower and much more boring.I maxed combats immediatly after gold swapping from RS3 to get into bossing with clanmates who returned OSRS mobile came out. We're all stuck at the job of slayer being entirely obsolete because we can boss or perform vork/zulrah for gp, and cannon or even barrage farming is zero fun amd a waste of time that could have been spent on neighborhood drama or playing something different.

Slayer is a skill and it is boring, it is kill monster y occasions and go here. It is precisely the same x amount of trees for y xp. Do you need an npc to tell you when, whenever you want you can literally kill monsters. This is why I do not get accounts with more than the exp for 99. Sure, if you have runescape gold 2107 a large kc on cerb that makes sense that you have like 15m exp, however the folks with 50m+ that make fun of me for being maxed at 93 slayer... I didnt get the tasks that I desired, so I did exactly what I wanted rather than
