Warding Skill

Total Votes: 125,147

Ever wonder where magical armour comes from? Yes, these robes are dropped by various monsters and sold in certain shops, but how does this equipment get imbued with magical properties?

Warding is a brand new production skill that teaches you the art of making magical equipment, items, and tools from the very best wizards in Gielinor.

After we first shared a blog describing Warding, its rewards and its content, we've reviewed thousands of comments and suggestions from players to help make Warding a skill that truly fits Old School RuneScape. We want it to be something that you, the dedicated players, have helped design.

This poll will close on Wednesday 24th July.

Should we add the core skill, Warding, to the game as described in the blog? The core skill will come with an introduction quest similar to Rune Mysteries. This question does not include the New Armours, Rewards, and Other Content. If this question passes we will release a beta to play through during the development of the skill.
