Much better phrased question than 'air?' topic. Anyways, on topic. I think swimming would be kinda cool. Only problem would be developing it and implementing it. How far can you swim? Would it be like agility with certain areas you could swim? As for underwater battles, I wouldn't see the point. I don't think people would want it. Land battles are good enough imo. Underwater battles really wouldn't be anything special. But I think they should have some type of swimming ability for the game. I think it would be pretty cool.

I think it would be a okay idea. The only thing that would be in question would be if its worthwhile to get up to 99.

Cheers, dafin0 :lol:

I don't think he said it would be a skill. But errr, he didn't even explain the idea anyway.

In the quest Recipe for disaster there's a small part where you need to go underwater and actually fight. Its only for a moment but the scenery is very cool.
Take a look:

Its nothing new.

I think an underwater part of runescape would be very nice and would attract more members back to the game who have left and gone to play WoW etc... they haven't added a new peice of land to rs in a long time (except for the Dungeoneering place of course). It would be nice to have a new skill where you can go underwater and depending on your level, how far down or how long you can stay there?

Not as a skill. That would be like dungeoneering. Only applicable in one place.
I think underwater battles might be kinda cool. If special attacks had different effects underwater and stuff.
I like in "THe Great BRain Robbery" quest when you sneak into the main church through the water. That was fun

I think they should do that more often.

I talked about this here a few months ago.
I would LOVE to see an underwater city!

Nope. Can't see what the great idea behind that would be.

no. I think land only is fine, there is really no need to bring it underwater

Guthix mentions in a God Letter about an underwater city...

i recall a leak of some underwater sort of cavern when the machinima orb was released.

my clannies speculated that dragon cbow will be released alongside these underwater caverns.
