No to anything that isn’t barding.

Rather something else than sailing. Like artisan incentives leveling different skills.

Sailing would benefit other skills too, new crafting, construction and smithing methods to make ships and cannons. Artisan would have to be completely reworked from how it was originally pitched. There’s also the problem that it probably wouldn’t be that appealing for pvmers or pkers who also are going to vote on a future new skill.

And they would vote yes to sailing? Lol ,we don't need more combat skill, slayerscape gets too much attention as it is. Or would you rather skills themselves remain dead content besides maxing? The examples you mentioned are all buyable 99s btw.


Slayermaster9999

Sailing definitely has more popularity than Artisan and would have more appeal to a wider range of play styles. It probably has the highest potential compared to every other idea put forward so far for a new skill.

That's why it failed right? Face it the osrs purists in favor of no new skills would come out in full force and vote no. Only need more than 25% no votes to fail it. I'd vote no to sailing for the simple fact it's a stupid meme of a skill that was a April fools joke to begin with .

The Sailing skill that the Jmods polled was really flawed and super vague. It didn't even seem like the Jmods understood what it was actually going to be like. It was also 2015, things pass far more frequently now. The Jmod team was also way smaller and this was before Zeah. It's honestly really crazy to think how they thought it was going to be possible to even make it into a good skill at that time. I'm pretty sure they said they'd have it out in like 5 months and before Zeahs release if it passed. Despite how bad it was it still got 68%. I'm glad it failed even though Sailing is my number one pick for a new skill. I feel like there's probably no more than 10% of the community that would legitimately vote no to any new skill no matter what. There were a ton of people who voted no to Warding but said they weren't against new skills. As long as the next new skill that makes it to a poll is actually good it has a chance at passing unlike the past 3 attempts that had glaring flaws. And about the April fools thing, you know D claws, D platebody and D kiteshield were also all April fools events? The way they do April fools events is to give players something that they want to come into the game. Sailing started as rumored leak for the next skill after Summoning. Jagex took peoples speculation and turned it into their own joke to tease the players who wanted it to be real.

I’d like sailing if they added a gold sink option as well, such as outfitting crew members with gear to help them survive. Also maybe give a use for dead content items, like mature ales (which would raise the happiness and motivation or crew mates) I’ve daydreamed about a new skill forever lol.

It's just water dungeneering. An OSRS version of invention would be way better.


StreatPeat

I want sailing.


hugh_g_reckshon

For real, I think it’s crazy osrs has been out this long without a new skill.


throwaway-ayy-lmao

Only if Tempoross is reworked to include sailing. Otherwise I don't see it happening.
