That is it there is no sense of adventure or actual sailing whimsy in putting on max mage or range and killing ocean creatures. Don’t get me wrong I’m all for efficiency but we can have that as an isolated combat style in the ocean, it’s fine to have cannon damage scale with range level but thats it. We should not be able to use regular weapons on ocean creatures. This allows for so many future weapon releases with ocean based weapons, pistols, handcannons even the blowpipes created using the damn skill. This also allows for creative weapons like a “captains cane” that buffs your crew mates to do more cannon damage. REMOVE REGULAR WEAPONS FROM THE OCEAN I WANT TO FEEL LIKE A CAPTAIN. No yellow text here sorry Edit: dude imagine an ocean area that you sail around and get boarded by like ghost pirates and have to melee them on your boat then shoot their ghost ship with your cannons, man so many cool things they can do with ocean combat and they choose this garbage. Edit2: I also understand Sailing is in it’s early stages and I had no hope they would release a “fully finished” skill I know many updates and quests are lined up for it but so far whenever Jagex touches this skill it seems so half assed and rushed like come on guys put some love in it you’re asking us all to pay more monthly then bring out this mediocre slop? submitted by /u/unicah
