The Revenant's cave

If you are or were a Runescape OldSchool player, this might be of interest to you.

For quite some time now the internal economy of the game has been slightly affected by the farming of the players and one of the most affected places has been the revenant cave.

In my opinion, for many people one of the most famous "money making" games is extremely easy to access, you only need a +75 range and a couple of quests to be able to generate gold almost like Vorkath (200qp are needed) and zulrah (+85 magic to be efficient + quite tedious quests).

The only reason why it was "difficult" to fake good gold in Revenant was because it is a PvP Zone and multicombat, where you could be very calm fighting your revenant and another player appeared and could kill you, a game with a lot of emotion.

And all this emotion has been drained because of the famous "Protector Clans", who are they? Organized groups of Player Killers that for a modest amount of gold will protect you x amount of hours from other player killers and will not let other farmers use the cave without paying.

Because of this Jagex has prepared 7 internal proposals, and I call them "internal" because generally these decisions are taken from the vote of the community, but this time it will not be like that.


1-. Revs Roam the Wilderness: This proposal is based on spreading the revenants along the Wilderness and having them appear randomly before you while you are there. One of my favorites.

2 .- Remap the Rev Caves: This proposal is to increase the size of the cave or separate the Revenants along the cave as today all are virtually next to each other.

Change the bracelet: Until recently, when you had a "Bracelet of ethereum" on, the Revenants were not able to hurt you, but this changed due to an update where they no longer offered you total protection from the Revenants, now if applicable, the protection would be reduced even more.

4-. Change the drop table: Here we don't have much to explain, you could either remove objects from the drop table, decrease the amount of objects by 1 drop or increase the drop rate to make it harder to get a drop.

5.- TASK-Only Area: at the moment, revenant can be assigned as Slayer tasks, but they are not exclusive, applying this condition you could only have access to the cave when they were assigned by some of the SlayerMasters.
6-. Remove The Revenant: This I believe is the least likely, would completely eliminate the Revenants of the game.

7-. Ban Clan/Teams: This is perhaps the most exhaustive for the Jagex team as they must spend many hours and resources trying to stop the rain with their hands as the clans protect even though they are not difficult to find, there are thousands if not millions and banning each account in each clan would be something very exhausting.

What do you think would be one or several solutions to this problem?
Thank you very much for reading the post, I hope you have a good day.
