When Sailing was being pitched and cross-skill synergy was discussed, I always imagined that the highest tier Mining rock would be underwater. This feels like a much more organic integration between Mining and Sailing than just having rocks on an island. And it makes sense, too - volcanic vents and water pressure can form special metals. Enough sense for video game logic, anyway. When I saw the underwater area in the new quest, it immediately struck me as exactly what I had envision for such underwater mining. I think Jagex should add a new top tier mining resource exclusive to an underwater area like this. I believe this would be a solid step in the right direction of integrating Sailing organically and naturally into the game, and help it feel less isolated or “forced” (which is the case a little bit when Sailing-exclusive materials are just on some island, without any particular reason why they couldn’t have been on the mainland). submitted by /u/Hellmakerr
