I watched all the livestreams last night, so I'm going to try and give some explanation to all the images. This was an overview of the plans for the next 18 months.

1. Skill two, if you can't tell is called "Inventor" The image in the slide is a device you can put down anywhere and toss most things into it for it to process them into their refined form, ores into bars, logs into bows, planks into furniture. It does all of this at once and you can collect the output.

2. With the inventor skill you will be able to combine weapons to improve them. This includes weapons of the same type. You can make two iron sword to combine them into an iron sword +1 combining two +1 sword for a +2 all the way up to +5. They won't make existing weapons and drops irrelevant, they might drop masterwork version that can be combined with +5 to make artefacts.

3. Soul weapons, they will want you to kill certain creatures for their souls. They will level up with you and may be sentient. They will have a personality befitting such a weapon and will be a crucial part of Inventor.

4. Armadyl in the next world event. He is standing on a tower that has what essentially amounts to a weapon of mass destruction on it. He will have several of these, all aimed at Bandos and Bandos will have the same. This world event will end with one of them dying. It is going to involve escorting caravans around the world to sites with Guthix's power(Divination) to harness for the battle. There will be tower defence mechanics to the event.

5. Parts of the energy they gather will be used to create golems used in the battle. Pictured are Armadyl golems.

6. Marimbo vs Brassica Prime, this is the third world event. It's going to be a party, not a battle.

7. They are going to make an interface to select if you want to be informed of when there are people at the various minigames. You can set it to inform you of anyone, friends, clanmates and the like. One of the minigames that are confirmed to be getting reworked is Barbarian Assault, which will also receive a hardmode and more interaction between classes.

8. Concept art of Bassalisks and the Giant Mole. The Giant Mole is currently being reworked, and will remain as content for level ~110. She'll get a hardmode with a special reward(I believe that was mentioned) It will be less about running around and finding her(though it will still be a part of the fight) and more about combatting different techniques she will use after she tunnels. There will be agility shortcuts throughout the area. The bassalisk refers to the Bassalisk boss in the Pollnivneach dungeon which players liked, the one off bosses for extra xp. They will be adding more things similar to that.

9. This is all for RS07 and can be ignored, unfortunately.

10. Self explanatory.

11. Fairly self explanatory. Only thing I can think to add is that one of the trade goods might be pearls.

12. I believe they said this is what Zaros looked like during the second age. I might be mistaken and it's what he looks like right now, without a body.

13. This is one of many possible bodies Zaros may receive as part of the World Gate quest, depending on your decisions. You will lead more about Zaros. Which leads to...

14. You will visit Freneskae during the quest. All the addressed things can be learned about.

15. Think hunger games meets stealing creation. Games of 20 players dumped into an area with randomised terrain, obstacles, and supplies scattered throughout. Last player standing wins. It will be on their beta servers for a while, implying players will get access to another beta soon(ish).

16. I can't think of anything to add.

17. Implied this will take place after the world event, but would be relevant even if Armadyl dies.

18. How the quest may work.

19. How the islands may look.

20. New competitive things on the highscores. He continued on about how roflbad the prestige failed in voting and how they want to do it right.

21. An image of a church. Not to Saradomin, but...

22. The Church of You. It will be similar to Managing Miscellania, but more in depth. You will be able to decide who can join and interact with those that stay. They will collect resources for you and may build statues of you around the world. The experience is supposed to be unique to everyone. He did not say how they will interact with you if you follow a god.
