OSRS Combat & Skilling Are Changing Forever 

If we get the occult changes we are 100% getting new necklace upgrades. Much like DT2 rings or Zenytes are. The herb activity seems really nice! RSN DeRang3rMan

Honestly, shoutout to all the OSRS content creators because it is thanks to you all that a lot of these changes happen. You all point out things that I think a lot of people overlook, and it seems they addressed a lot of things that I have noticed other OSRS content creators complaining about, i.e., requirements for basic agility shortcuts, etc.

I think Prayer Regen and Aggro pots need to have STEEP requirements in order to not be a net negative on the game. My biggest issue with Prayer Regen is its a straight powercreep. And any new content will be designed around its existence in the game. On the other side of that coin, everything that came out prior to prayer regen is much easier. Im not against making some things easier or more bearable, but this is sketchy waters.

The changes seem fun for casual players like me. I really like osrs its so chill if u dont sweat it much RSN Halfminhero

Since I AFK big time, I think that the aggression potion will be a great addition for me.

Thank you for always making these update videos man!

Just want to say your videos are such an inspiriation to me, I watch these while at the GE waiting for flips! Thanks for the banger video Kaoz!!

Can't wait to test the new herblore activity should be interesting

Thanks for mentioning the dog we never got, I thought everyone forgot about that. I’d love to have a corgi following me around!

Haven’t kept up with the game for a while due to being busy, but I appreciate you breaking things down like this. Definitely some things to look forward to. I’ve wanted a prayer renewal potion for so long, that’s really dope. The herb activity rewards sound interesting as well, thanks again Loadoats! Finally jeez

Tysm dor the info on nats just swapped to it was doin zim for similer xp anyway

Pretty excited about that prayer point renewal potion !! Thanks for breaking this all down...lots to go over lol. I'm Red Shelly in game ❤

Awesome video as always! Excited for the updates to draognbane - RSN - MrCream

I love the idea of the new collection log progress update. RSN Evelanderine

I’m most excited for the magic damage/gear rework! Gonna be exciting to see what happens. My rsn is hashologist :)

@13:40 you said 12 ticks or every 8 minutes when you meant seconds. Just wanted to clarify that! Awesome video as always

Really looking forward to the gear and combat changes. I think the minimum hit is going to be big. RSN Murunix

Prayer regeneration looks pog

Excuse the potentially stupid question but are any of these changes implemented yet? Or are they just proposed/announced and not live. Is there a date when we can expect these changes to be live? I'm specifically interested in the mob defense, magic, and early combat changes.

Big dub of a vid. Prob most excited for the daggy kings shortcut and the dwh drop rate as I have yet to unlock the task. But excited to see the herby boss too later on too! Seems like they'll phase in certain things sooner given the work needed. Rsn ReyofGoats

I'm super excited for the herblore activity, RSN Jazz34

Hopefully the Occult Necklace nerf isnt too much, specially since it was a very affordable upgrade for mid lvls and most likely with all this, gear upgrades will go up in gp making requirements a bit more expensive and as a poor osrscaper, that could hurt my purse u.u but as you said, it is all about adapting to the changes, so only have to wait and see how it goes and with the new weapon coming out, i suppose it shouldn't be bad In the other hand, prayer regen pot sounds good, interested to see how it balances with the prayer pot or if it will take over if only using above head prayers since the consumption isnt that fast; The item loadouts seem very nice, such a nice quality of life feature, hope it gets implemented. RSN Bladirs ♡

Definitely the new Valamore group boss, we need more group bosses that aren't raids imo. RSN SlightyWet

New agility shortcuts and faster training is so exciting! RSN Gremrin

U can still butterfly when u get the black orbs btw just keep going theyll despawn before u get back to your starting orbs.

Hi Kaoz, when you do your gear progression guide for 2024, will you please include Ironman too?

Hyped for the defense changes personally. Should give the devs much more room when designing future content. RSN Enginseer

New boss sounds really cool, excited to fight it just because it's visually stunning! RSN Toad Fingers

Most excited about herblore activity... especially the new prayer rejuvenation potion. That's going to be huge for pvm. Rsn maxskullzzzz ✌️

The herblore changes are the most exciting, gonna make stamina ca’s a lot less reliant on getting supply drops. RSN: MRDickButter

The new boss and the Herblore is probably what I am waiting the most on this update. RSN beautykill13

I really hope they introduce dogs as pet soon and the equipment loadout, it will save tons of time!!!

Honestly a lot of these updates are simply things that people think they want but could ultimately trivialize some important early-mid game fun items and activities like the occult necklace being a cheap but very effective upgrade, and herb runs for Ranarrs being such an awesome money maker. It carries money making in the early game in such a nice way. As soon as you start taking away value from early-midgame you lose the magic that makes old mmorpgs so great. Every game nowadays is about grinding endgame garbage forever because there is so little value in early game and making players spend more and more time on the game ultimately. Not good.

Super excited about more options for magic now so I can finally get to the whisperer haha! RSN RuneDan27

I think having a new boss intrigues me so much even though I’m just a returning mid level player RSN: Dr NadiR

Random question on 5:13 how is he switching from prayer to inventory without clickin on the tabs?

Super excited for the DK agility shortcut. I've never done the DKs, so now I don't have to run through the maze every time I die. RSN: Way2Foxy69

Prayer renewals were fucking dope in RS3. Stoked they're coming to OSRS.

Osrs is the best game ever

The new herblore changes seem interesting and there even is some potential for more afkscape! RSN Reym0n

Holy loadouts, pk return gearing never got easier.

Honestly super hyped about the agility changes, haven't gotten to do the Hard Fremennik Dairy for herb runs so now I don't gotta worry about doing it right away. RSN XanderLGreat

Can't wait for void mage set to be viable more places Rsn F15H

whats your clan name? its been a few months since ijoined osrs but still no clan xD decided will join if possible

The new aggro potion will be amazing for non-aggressive slayer monsters to speed it up. Rsn michaelazar

So nice to see some of the best qol features from rs3 coming to osrs. inventory presets should have been added years ago, nothing worse than grabbing an armour set and forgetting your necklace or gloves or similar.

Im really on the fence with the aggro potion. It seems like an item tailored for griefers especially with some afk slayer monster spawns being far enough for it to not instantly get aggro'd.

major changes are coming so be sure to stock up on bonds to not miss out RSN BrownerSteve

really looking forward to agression potion RSN- WuOSReaper

So many quality of life updates that 10 year old me could have only ever dreamed of, maybe not even dreamed of.

I’m most excited for the equipment load outs, that just makes sense and is kinda crazy it’s not in the game already.. also having pet dogs would be better than cats, hopefully one day… RSN gananondorf

Another skilling minigame to acquire another skilling outfit, Can't wait! RSN Bain Dramage

When does the dwh update drop or did it already?

Great vid

Prayer renewal best item on the list.

love that this game still gets cool updates like this, cant wait to see the changes :) RSN DaagherFX

Always appreciate the effort that goes into making these update vids + the insightful commentary, but the opinion on the magic gear changes feels a bit rough here. This is the third unpolled gear update (pipe, fang, occult) where mid-game items have been nerfed purely to appease the concerns of end game players. Bit frustrating that the “solution” always involved kicking mid-level players in the balls and leaving them without a decent alternative.

my stance on this kinda shit is that if they wanna nerf shit they should do so same week it comes out. not years later.

Agility changes to me. RSN: mining day

Any and all of the updates that make it more like RS3 in tiny little ways are my favorite RSN: Jacksin24

Maybe they should just raise the alch price of the occult necklace much higher. It takes killing a task only slayer monster with 93 slayer. The problem isn't it's power it's that op it's that it's undervalued while simultaneously the rest of mage gear mostly is trash.

Everyone complains about occult, how about the fact that stupid imbued heart is so rare for such a massive boost. Put into perspective ahrims + heart is more dps than ancestral no heart... I dont understand why heart is so rare for how good it is yet something like occult is cheap and fairly easy to get but it needs to be nerfed... make it make sense

the dueling wand and prayer regen pots seem kinda worrying to me, both have the potential to be really broken.

The agility course buffs might make me want to train it more often 😬 Rsn ButAhoys

Good ol agility shortcuts, a smooth 150 hour grind to save 2 minutes once per month

If they havent fixed zolcano for rewards you dont get KC all the time because it dies so fast and they havent changed the min damage for a drop.

The aggression potion should be scrapped it will just make botting mobs even worse, things like crabs will become almost impossible to find a spot for new players.

I can’t find out how he made his achievement cape teleport a left click, won’t it always show the tele menu first? Help

Oh thank christ for an herblore game.

I am excited to see the changes, but I am worried that the game is moving towards some more QOL changes that arent in line with what makes OSRS different from RS3. RSN Bob Flagon

RSN: TruCanadian Username: TruCanadianEh Cant wait to see the new boss in action! not going to be high enough level yet, but wont miss seeing you bring it down! Also brining new ways to train skills such as herblore are always welcome :)

I just want the Varlamore armor available to players so I can dress like Solaire of Astora

RSN: Linkorb I'm most excited about the new Quetzalcoatl boss. Feeling butt hurt about the occult nerf

Occult necklace was one of the only decent end-game upgrades my account can afford. Hopefully the nerf isnt so much that it adds an absurd amount of unimportant gameplay hours to current bosses. Also, is the new herblore stuff actually game changing for anyone? Just seems like youre going through a hassle for items which over simplify an already simple activity and with no saved time. Also, pot storage.. thats not a toggleable option right off the bat which is just evil imo.

this would be the first time i get to a boss on release and actually fight (ratboi not counted in) RSN BagoolSuolis

Idk the wilderness shortcuts probably SHOULD be locked behind the diary imo.

Cant wait for the Asian Godsword update

As long as whomever didn't want the Voidwaker passive "I cannot miss, ever, and I deal minimum 50% your max hit", recognize that as a broken ass mechanic to have in a video game, I'm good with it staying that way 😂

OHHHHH, Rocky Pet you say?!?!??? Hmmmm

New mage weapon! RSN Arvona

Diary cape - use pvp world and sir rebral

most excited for the removal of autocast delay for ancient spells RSN scapingby

New group boss seems fun. rsn lockdownking

I am waiting for the hit chance change.. my def pure will go from 1.4k xp afk to 14k xp

My favorite change is probably the Dagannoth King shortcuts. I've only recently finished the Freminik Elite Diary to make bones stack and the short amount of time I've grinded Rex, allowed me to get enough money so I can try Nex masses (no luck) and to chin MM2 for higher range. Currently on CG grind for enhanced but it might be more worth it if I go back to DKs if they lower the respawn timer as well. Need money for prayer and bonds smh. RSN Koo Koo34

Dragonbane magic is needed!! Keep the combat balance rsn lockdownking

Rsn goodbutbad08 I'm excited for the new herblore activities, herblore needed something!

I honestly can’t wait until more rs3 items come to osrs.

I’m excited for all the changes coming, slayer is my favorite I hate wasting points on the cringe assignments so that rework should be great! Thanks for always putting together amazing and helpful content! RSN Avacado_FTW

Gimme that wand wonder what it will be like at Cox RSN: PandaJebus

RSN- CM PP LOOKING FORWARD TO THE PRAYER RENEWALS!!! (IF ADDED)

Ohhh so there’s a short cut to dags now??whereee

Did any of the changes affect BIS method? Did we got anything new BIS?

So far i hate every thing they did to mining, they murdered my favourite skill in game 😢

The gear changing and lock items one. Rsn: Airplane312

What is the giant bird boss not drop the book of air lol

Why does his game look so nice? Is it a runelite plugin?

Had no clue the herblore activity was coming. Finally something to convince me to get it above 80 lol RSN D1RTYBUBBL3

I’m excited to get another active skilling method to reduce the number of buyable skills. Was not looking forward to bank standing and making pots to get the Herblore up. RSN Hawkback1329
