Skilling Boxes

[Brosace]

Thought this idea was pretty neat, so I decided to share it. I think this would encourage people to skill more, vote more and give the member a reward at the same time. Although the reward may be minimal, but still a reward.

The idea that I thought up was "Skilling Boxes". They can be obtained the same amount of times you can vote per day and are claimed alongside the voting rewards. The boxes could contain "Bonus Skill XP" and "Bonus SKP" scrolls that last X amount of time per day. They could be as broad as applying the bonuses to all skills or they could be specific to one skill. The boxes should be random for everyone. This could encourage people to maybe do some skills they haven't done before and add more variety. Instead of people doing the same skills all the time for money. There is also potential for this to be an item that skillers could buy on the tradepost to try and get scrolls for the specific skills they're training. Also the boxes could maybe be obtained while skilling, with the same chance of a pet drop or a little less rare than that.

Just an idea I thought I'd throw out there, let me know what you think.

It would really depend on how much bonus experience we're talking and how rare it is. I'd rather not have skilling being super quick for rich players.

We already have buyable outfits that give bonus xp. 

Bonus exp scrolls feel like rs3 instead of osrs/roatpkz.

Yea, those are very valid points. I'm talking more of a minuscule amount of difference, just something that's nice to have, plus skilling outfits give you 10% permanently, instead of x amount of hours. And in terms of selling the boxes on the tradepost, I don't think the individual scrolls should be sold. That way a person buying the boxes would have to spend more money trying to get the ones they want. There's a few things that would have to be worked out though.

Another addon to my idea would be adding small amounts of skilling resources to the boxes as well, like 25 bowstrings, 20 logs etc. Or you could just have skilling boxes contain small amounts of materials for skilling instead of bonus xp scrolls etc.

That sounds nice. More variety to our current skilling is totally welcome.
