Just read through some of the information for Rise of the Six!

I personally believe that it is a desperate cry to re-energize people to try barrows again. I have to hand it to Jagex though, they have found several different ways to introduce new 'high-level armor and equipment' into the game.

So, what's your opinion on the update??

Imo, it brings PvM bossing back to life again for people that can't find 10 people for Vorago or don't quite have the stats. Once some strategies have been developed, it should be quite popular and looks really fun from what I've seen on livestreams.

I like your outlook on it. As a Runescape player who does not have the combat levels to take on the recent additions to PVM, it forces me to have a negative look towards the updates. I understand that the bosses are to continually challenge us, but as a lower level player it is, in simple terms, frustrating.

This was the main reason I created this thread. I wanted to gather the opinions of both high level players and lower level players as a comparison.

Well, as a "high level" player, I enjoy most updates the game makes, as they're always interesting. I do have 180+ combat, as is recommended for new Barrows. I personally would also like some lower-level bosses that don't require teams or even using highest level gear, as I don't want to always risk tons of money. However, I like the direction they have been going with bosses, and hope they just come back to lower ones later. Something between new Barrows and QBD would be nice, even if it was a team one

Spoiler:

I would love something between barrow and QBD. I think it is exactly what Runescape needs to bridge the gap in PVM. Jagex should hire you.

It does look like fun but I'm not much of a pvmer. Been peeking at livestreams but all I see are deaths lol. Can't wait to see what is needed to defeat them, which would be interesting seeing how it changes every day.

The next 'boss' update that I'm looking forward to (i guess) is this 'skillers boss'. I want to see how this is gonna play out.

Some jmod said next bosses will be more soloable. there is mole rework going on atm and it comes out with hard mode so that would be something interesting to those who likes to solo.

About Barrows tho... I like more of soloable bosses as I'm quite noob at high lvl bosses like nex/vorago etc xD

i really enjoy fighting nex, but i got my ass kicked here...
(i wasnt willing to wear any wealth...)

i would really like some easier bosses too, or maybe even some F2P bosses that can generate enough income for people to buy bonds Razz

It sounds fun honestly, I've always been interested in the barrows brothers history, its an epic story and when they announced a new brother I was pretty happy(Besides for RS3, that killed it) but in eoc all I did was barrows and slayer. But I'm looking forward to see more about this update!

I finally got a chance to watch some of the livestreams and videos about the update. It looks impossible to complete even as 5 maxed players. I'm sure once a strategy is developed, it will be just the same as the other bosses where everyone does the same thing to defeat it. Can't wait to see the massive rewards though!

This would be a great idea. To allow higher level f2p players who have never been members to get a taste of it and see how awesome being a member really is!

It's extremely difficult unless you manage to find a good team that knows what they're doing and the rewards are excellent.

As lil_me said, I'm not much of a PVMer. However, I'm really excited for these skilling bosses. I wonder what kind of skills and requirements will be needed. It also makes me wonder if certain resources will go up, depending on the needs for said boss.

After looking at the rewards, I can see why so many people are continuing to try and complete this 'gauntlet'. Very tantalizing.

Could be great opportunities for some investments. Can't wait to see what Jagex can come up with!
