Personally, I would like to see the trees outside the Wilderness have an individual limit per day until they are depleted and respawn on daily reset, and the max number of logs obtainable being scaled with the player's total experience dependent on gamemode (as opposed to total level, since that would incentivize making quick 200x EXP alts to farm the trees) - or simply being limited on a per-MAC basis.

Welcome back, glad to see you back around again - I hope you fully enjoy all the new content we have!~

Moved this to Accepted Suggestions because it sounds like a simple yet effective QOL.

More options with bonds would be cool, the XP boost you noted sounds fair, since the item is fairly pricey in the first place.

More ways to get skilling outfits WOULD be nice since they are current SOF exclusive~

I'd like to see a 10x Tradeable gamemode before seeing a 2x Ironman mode (there are already so many Ironman modes to choose from) personally.

This was recently added in RS3 and I believe is soon to be added for the Revenant Drop Enhancer (based on the Jagex Devs teasing on their Reddit) and it's a huge QOL - so a big support from me!

Hi everybody!
Today, with Sandstorm's blessing, I've went ahead and added a Creator Role in our Discord.
With this, we've also created a new #creators channel for people with this rank to post in.This role and channel are intended for people who feel like/are currently making Velheim related videos for fun (that aren't full-time YouTubers), and would like to just get your videos shared in a more visible area.
Feel free to reply to this thread if you wish to apply for the rank, be sure to include your in-game name, and a link to your YouTube Channel.
Much thanks,
Tyrone.-

I'm down for a new gamemode (10x Tradeable always piqued my interest) and maybe more QOLs that enhance the new player experience, but as said multiple times before - Necromancy is a big negative because of the cache (as is other content from the latter half of the 925 cache).
-
-
Could be a simple implementation if its just the typical: "Give money, wait time, take resources".
+1 because Kingdom is dope in normal RS too.

Interesting direction! I can only hope that some reward/point shops get some love in the future too~

Definitely super cool concepts, and I'd be interested to become a mentor in the future should it get implemented! Your thoughts are so well laid out, it's almost hard to come up with additional suggestions or tweaks.
On "PVM Focused Timed Events", a few thoughts:
-
Would the shards concept really be viable for ironman (non-group) accounts to entice them to participate? Maybe it would, I can't speak for them, but they would have to participate in a lot of rolled drops to be able to combine for 100 of the given item.
- Of course we shouldn't disbar a piece of content because some may not find it useful, just a thought though.
- Should probably also implement a restriction of 1 IP/MAC per boss room, unless this is already in place.
On "Mentoring System":
- Should there be a limit placed on how many mentees a mentor can have at a time?
- What is the trigger upon which the mentor will receive a reward? After killing X number of bosses? After X time as a mentor? Feedback provided by mentee? Otherwise?
- Personally, I think the rewards should be kept to non-tradeable only. For a number of reasons, but primarily to ensure mentors are in the system for the right reason, to actually help mentor a new player and teach them how to become better PVMers, and not solely for the benefits/rewards. Titles, cosmetics, etc. would be really cool to see.
Overall, again, really well thought out and I think both would be great additions to the game!
Thanks for the feedback, and to speak on the points:
PVM:
- I can see what you mean, but it would be a shame to have a feature like this and STILL only reward the sole top contributor, I'll think of a better number for the number of shards dropped to make it worth-while for all players involved (if something like this is accepted).
- I'll add that to the thread.
Mentoring:
- I was thinking a limit of 3 or 4 Mentees, didn't think it important to specify but I'll add it.
- I think it could be a combination of the three somewhat-so, but I was primarily thinking of # of bosses killed, perhaps with a limit per boss per mentor/menteeship.
- That's was my plan - the currency used to would be for untradeable things in the shop, perhaps the cosmetics or pets I had in mind, with the titles being tied to number of kills with Mentee.
-
Would the shards concept really be viable for ironman (non-group) accounts to entice them to participate? Maybe it would, I can't speak for them, but they would have to participate in a lot of rolled drops to be able to combine for 100 of the given item.

This suggestion is just for some more "community" building, which could help the newer players get a proper grasp at PVMing.
- PVM Focused Timed Events.
Every 2/3 hours, a boss, or "boss-related" content will be put on a Spotlight for an hour.
The spotlight would do the following;- Increase Drop Rate % by a little bit,
-
Bosses which utilize Public Rooms become 'Insane' respawn speed by default and have the following change;
- Rather than recieving drops, participating players receive Item Shards for the item dropped,
- 200 item shards can be crafted into the specified item, and drop in amounts of [100 / # of participating players rounded up] when rolled in the Public Room, - Exceptions to the Shard feature would be any bosses which do not actively have item shards for their 'main' drops, and in such cases would have an even further increase drop rate %,
- Ironmen are also allowed to participate in the Public Rooms to benefit from this timed event.
- An IP/MAC can only have one account in a focused instance at a time.
- Mentoring System.
This system would be a way for more experienced players to be able to teach lower level players, and benefit from it.
The requirements to become a Mentor would be the following:- Have a total level of at least 2,000,
- Have a total of at LEAST 5,000 boss kills,
- Have killed EACH boss at least once (including Caves, Kiln, Zuk, and Croesus),
- Have killed EACH boss at least 50 times (not including Caves, Kiln, Zuk, and Croesus),
- In the case of Ironmen, they would be allowed to become Mentors, and would be allowed to participate in Instanced content with their Mentee (regardless of Mentee game-mode).
- A mentor would have a limit of 3 Mentees at any given time.
A player who wishes to become a Mentor would be able to register themselves to a 'Mentorship Board' in-game. From there, players are allowed to "apply" to join a/your "Mentorship" as a 'Mentee'.
The requirements to enter into a 'Mentorship' would be the following:- LESS than 2,500 Boss Kills.
- Accounts must have NOT originated from the same IP or MAC address as the mentor.
- Mentee's who are Irons, would be allowed to participate in Instanced Content with their Mentors.
For Rules or I guess 'clauses' we would have;
- Should the Mentor & Mentee be on the same IP or MAC at any time, the Mentorship would be terminated and they would be barred from eachother permanently.
- If a 'Mentor' is found in violation of the above note, they would be excluded from recieving any Mentorship rewards for a period of time.
- A 'Mentor' will have their 'Mentorship' withdrawn/disbanded if they have not logged on for 7 days (they can re-apply/re-enable it again afterwards).
- A Mentee can withdraw from their Mentorship at any time, but would have to wait 12 hours before they can apply to a new one.
As for the Mentorship rewards, I had a few ideas floating around in general that could be useful and/or desirable.
- Exclusive Cosmetic Override/s,
- Exclusive Title/s,
- Exclusive Pet/s,
- Currency earned from Mentoring which can be used on a specific reward system (untradeable currency and rewards).
Other than the benefits of teaching and earning rewards, there could also be smaller features that would make the system more coherent and beneficial such as the following;
- All item drops would instead be replaced with Item Shards (with the same formula as the PVM Events),
- No death penalties for the Mentee when participating in content with their mentor,
- and a small chance for drops to be doubled.
If you have any feedback, feel free to let me know in the replies and I could adjust my suggestion accordingly.

Following the issues of last week, Sandstorm has needed to open a new Discord Server since Discord Support has all but refused to help Sandstorm with the issue. The Velheim BOT is automatically sending out invites via PM as we speak, slowly.
Unfortunately, memories will be lost from the old server but here's to making new ones in the future.

see i agree with you, but also people who vote als get rewarded in game ? with a vote book which can be turned into a monetary value,
The way I see it is that Voting is free, and it's very much an "effort" thing (not p2w) - and having people competing to get into the Top 5 by spending money just doesn't sound fun.
