but... is it goofy? hybrid boots aren't really all that bad of an option given the current discourse over the project rebalance. we already have a pair of lower tier hybrid boots in Brimstone boots, why not look at possibly making a higher tier of hybrid boots? it seems almost like a win-win
Barrows gloves were universally bis for a really long time, and nobody complained about that. Universally bis boots that require a lot of rare and expensive items to craft would be a lot harder to obtain than barrows gloves were.
As silly as this seems initially, this would probably be a good idea. Looks good. Make a new slayer boss drop something that lets you combine all the boots. Bam. Best hybrid boots in the game and no switch for the boot switch complainers. Then it leaves jagex options for future combat-style-centric boots that arent attached to these ones as well. Basically barrows boots
Yeah, all the complaints about gear switches tells me there’s a lack of high level hybrid gear. Barrows and fury are good examples of something that’s just one step below BiS for multiple different combat styles.
Just because I hate irons: a player takes the 3 cerb crystals to the death altar and combine them into a boot amalgamator crystal and then use them on the other boots
Just because I hate everyone: shadow patch all cerb crystals to be untradable 6 hours before this patch goes live. Would be funny to watch reddit lose its collective mind
Brimstone boots just don't do a great job at being a barrows glove boot equivalent, because they're missing the most important stat entirely, being str bonus. They also randomly only have stab accuracy, but no slash/crush
They have stab because wyrms, hydras, and drakes are weak to stab. They're supposed to be better boots of stone before Kourend elite.
So I agree, we don't have tribrid boots yet
At the same time, while barrows gloves are "tribrid" they offer no strength to mage or range, so at the end of the day they're just melee gloves without negative penalties to the other styles.
Tribrid equipment itself doesn't explicitly offer strength, even void mage had none for what a decade?
Thats my current thought on the occult rebalance. OS always has had randomly goofy strong items like barrows gloves. Dds is still a meta item at 15k alch price and 60 attack. I'd be happier with a 93 slayer req slapped on so people aspire to get the item. Heck, even make it an item that protects against the thermonuclears attacks by reducing the damage by 1 (you'd have to also buff it by 1 baseline).
I unironically hate the slayer helm for how good it is and how it effectively makes an entire gear slot be reduced to a single item until the mid game is in the far distance. I'm not opposed to getting buffs during slayer tasks, I've just grown to hate how the slayer helm is the form it took.
Every boss in the game has a 1/2k to drop an untradeable Primeternasianvout shard, once you collect them all you can take them to the Strange Old Man and pay 1,000,000,000 GP to combine them.
When a new boss comes out, you can no longer equip the boots until you have the next shard.
*"Your Primeternasianvout boots hunger for more carnage.. They snap shut as you attempt to don them."*
.... Why do I not hate this?
Why do I love the design of those boots?
Dang it! I like this idea from aesthetic alone. Especially if we can toggle the items color and appearance to match our item. (Or even cooler, it changes on its own depending on which combat style we are using).
I unironically would support this. I really like stuff that combines items into one, gives some room for lateral power creep where you save an inventory slot/etc over just making something with slightly higher numbers.
Swapping gear should honestly be kept to a minimum. In fact I kind of even like how Diablo 2 would just let you equip a second set of weapons without having it in your inventory.
I'm all for lowering swap requirements.
Doesn't need a boot switch, gives use to pegs and eternals, sounds good to me.
The only thing I think could be different is not -requiring- the prayer boots, but having them as an additional upgrade on top of combining the other 3
I've told my friends the next raid mega-rare should be a tribrid boot that is just a little worse than each of the others individually. It would be amazing.
Okay but hang on is this an okay idea? Camping prims is already meta and barrows gloves already create one tribrid near bis. Is another tribrid bis slot so bad?
I know its a meme but if you could infuse each boot with devout boots just for the prayer bonus id be glad with that. The prayer drain for piety, rigour, and augury is really stupid.
Unironically I think this is a fantastic solution because boots slot for specific Styles is kind of weird especially with how much they're pushing for things to come from head chest legs only
Give us a goblin npc that we have to find tied up In a dungeon, that sells a tinkerers workshop that we build in our PoH In order to combine boots and other accessories and I'm sold
I wish gagex would do more items like this. Creates an item sink and not having to bring so many switches everywhere would be nice…. Also combine all the dt2 rings with a light bearer. Dt2 rings are hardly ever used cause light bearer is better, so create an item that lets you combine them all. No more ring and boot switches.
thats a great design. fixes the inventory space concern people are upset about, and could be a fun item to strive for honestly. those are insanely powerful boots, though!
Great. Now there’s gonna be 40 more posts of fucking boots. Boots with nerfed voidwakers and occults on them. Inq boots. Watch. Mark my words. You sir have created a monster. But i like your post
Would love these, maybe with a different look, coming from a raid or an item that must be combined with components from dismantling all 4 of the boots combined with the new raid or rare item.
Only if the wings in the boots change color via what style your main hand weapon is.
Got my vote
*equips salamander and crashes the game*
It would just match the color of the salamander.
*equips salamander and suddenly is in RS3*
Done.
Genius! Get this man a promotion!
I’ll get on it right away.
as goofy as the post is. those boots are sick as fuck
Big agree
but... is it goofy? hybrid boots aren't really all that bad of an option given the current discourse over the project rebalance. we already have a pair of lower tier hybrid boots in Brimstone boots, why not look at possibly making a higher tier of hybrid boots? it seems almost like a win-win
The post is goofy, i.e. the idea of hybrid boots just smooshing the names of the component boots. Not necessarily the idea itself
if these boots are proposed and this isn't their name I will vote against it out of spite. Primeternasianvout Boots or nothing.
Omniscient boots
Primeternasianvout McBootface
New ultimate ironmeme series w the goal being cerbie pet
theyre clearly radish boots
The idea is goofy on its face. Do you really think there should be a universal bis in an item slot?
Barrows gloves were universally bis for a really long time, and nobody complained about that. Universally bis boots that require a lot of rare and expensive items to craft would be a lot harder to obtain than barrows gloves were.
radas blessing 4 moment (lucky penny doesn't count)
Straight out of McDonald’s kids meal lookin

Not a slayer boss. Get a rfd style quest like you do for barrows but have it basically be one more favor on a master quest scale

Let me pay 1 bil for these
Sorry, the crystal needed to combine them is only obtained as untradable as a 1/25000 drop from the telekinetic maze in MTA
And revert the qol changes to that room
You need to hit the 1 in 25000 three times to get the drop, there is no way to know if you've rolled it.
Three times in a row*
Unpolled integrity change Give us the Clown Jordans, Jagex.
Considering the existence of barrows gloves we've had meta trybrid gear before, I'm honestly not opposed to
Yeah, all the complaints about gear switches tells me there’s a lack of high level hybrid gear. Barrows and fury are good examples of something that’s just one step below BiS for multiple different combat styles.

Settle down there Satan, lets leave some torment for the lesser demons too lol.
They're called boots of brimstone I believe.
Brimstone boots just don't do a great job at being a barrows glove boot equivalent, because they're missing the most important stat entirely, being str bonus. They also randomly only have stab accuracy, but no slash/crush
They have stab because wyrms, hydras, and drakes are weak to stab. They're supposed to be better boots of stone before Kourend elite. So I agree, we don't have tribrid boots yet

Barrows gloves came out at a time when there was no such thing as range or mage strength. They were indeed tribrid gloves of their time.
Brimstone boots are budget primeternasianvout boots
Always were
Those derive their utility from being able to survive in the karuulm dungeon (pre elite diary)
This is 2024, we're not allowed to have nice things anymore.
Thats my current thought on the occult rebalance. OS always has had randomly goofy strong items like barrows gloves. Dds is still a meta item at 15k alch price and 60 attack.

Don't forget slayer helm. That shit would never pass today lol, it's such a crazy item.

Anyone know the movie source of this and also what the girl is actually holding?
Antman, not sure what she's holding
It is a horribly ugly stuffed animal.
I've been mad for years now that they used my likeness for that stuffed animal
Finally, a good suggestion Edit: Can we add an echo crystal to these too?
This isn't terraria man hahahahaha
You're right, the boots should also make you run faster after you've moved in a straight line for at least 5 tiles.
What if instead of skipping 1 tile when we run, we skip 2 tiles
Whisperer would be funny
It’s charged with echo crystals!
This needs to be polled. Amazing.
Game integrity change tbh
A good partial reward for “While Guthix Sleeps” which will let you combine these boots with 90 crafting. Untradable but boots can be separated.
But, you lose one random pair when separating 😲
should be 90 (80?) runecrafting because the other cerb boots require runecrafting
Terraria-ass crafting recipe
Can combine them with Rainbow Boots from Stronghold of Security: - BiS range - BiS melee - BiS mage - BiS prayer - BiS fashion
And in doing so makes it permanently untradeable.
And degrades in 10k hits leaving only the rainbow boots
Can we bless the boots with 100k plat tokens in our poh’s gold sink to corrupt them?
“Let me get this straight, you want to ‘bless’ them by covering them with money in an expensive sink?” -yes

Megarare Yeezy’s
Red Raktubers
Migraine Jordans
Terraria vibes. I'm in
Funny enough the pegasian boots don't have a range % bonus so idk where that's even coming from 😂
He tried to sneak some powercreep in there.
This is the main reason I'm okay with blessed dhide boots, plus poor
Rock the guthix dhide boots and no one will ever know
support
Needs mole slipper add on for BiS aesthetics.
This is the change I want, I am all for comboscape. Edit: but let use a cerb crystal to change it’s colour.
i want these. Jagex please.
Finally a decent suggestion
Honestly. Sure.
Bro's cooking
Every boss in the game has a 1/2k to drop an untradeable Primeternasianvout shard, once you collect them all you can take them to the Strange Old Man and pay 1,000,000,000 GP to combine them. When a new boss comes out, you can no longer equip the boots until you have the next shard. *"Your Primeternasianvout boots hunger for more carnage.. They snap shut as you attempt to don them."*
I’m down lol
Amazing! Even got a catchy name 👏🏻👏🏻
If these were real how much do you think they’d be worth lol ?
Depends how much the superglue is to combine them is.
To create, bring all 4 boots to a Elder Chaos Druid tailor located in the middle of the Chaos Temple
Which skulls you and starts a 5 minute animation
wouldnt be bad bis hybrid boots and would open up reward space for future bis singular class boots with no attachments
.... Why do I not hate this? Why do I love the design of those boots? Dang it! I like this idea from aesthetic alone. Especially if we can toggle the items color and appearance to match our item. (Or even cooler, it changes on its own depending on which combat style we are using).
Could be a drop from tormented demons to combine them all together
Low-key.. why the hell not- sign me up!
Add mole slippers
maybe this will solve the problems.
Why the boots gotta be asian
I would 100% be on board, the current meta is way too many switches
Raids 4 should give you some item like the abyssal needle to combine all 4 boots
I unironically would support this. I really like stuff that combines items into one, gives some room for lateral power creep where you save an inventory slot/etc over just making something with slightly higher numbers.
Why dont we combine Masouri, Ancestral, and Torva too while we at it.
Swapping gear should honestly be kept to a minimum. In fact I kind of even like how Diablo 2 would just let you equip a second set of weapons without having it in your inventory. I'm all for lowering swap requirements.
We already have Mole Slippers.
Wait.... let him cook....
Doesn't need a boot switch, gives use to pegs and eternals, sounds good to me. The only thing I think could be different is not -requiring- the prayer boots, but having them as an additional upgrade on top of combining the other 3
This is actually sick.
I've told my friends the next raid mega-rare should be a tribrid boot that is just a little worse than each of the others individually. It would be amazing.
“Mega-rare” “little worse” dont seem to go together
Okay but hang on is this an okay idea? Camping prims is already meta and barrows gloves already create one tribrid near bis. Is another tribrid bis slot so bad?
Gimme
Can we increase walking speed? Or if you have any sort of boot with wings attached. Stamina doesn’t drop as fast?
I know its a meme but if you could infuse each boot with devout boots just for the prayer bonus id be glad with that. The prayer drain for piety, rigour, and augury is really stupid.
Needs an echo crystal...
Call it The Boot
As long as they don’t look like Santa’s elve’s slippers like in the picture then sure
If they don't look like Santa's elves' slippers then I'm out
Them kicks are fire
Yes vote
Allow us to attach the brimstone ring to any of the boots to removed the negative bonuses and give them the att stat of the ring
terraria coded
Nice, but maybe a bit to much defence stats.
Unironically I think this is a fantastic solution because boots slot for specific Styles is kind of weird especially with how much they're pushing for things to come from head chest legs only
The question mark is fancy boots. Obviously.
Love it, 1-2b item for sure
Make em all combinable only by ironmanning it via an item for each plus sign in the pic, quest gated. Ship it
Need to add the brimstone boots w/an echo crystal and we have a deal
Give us a goblin npc that we have to find tied up In a dungeon, that sells a tinkerers workshop that we build in our PoH In order to combine boots and other accessories and I'm sold
Take my money
The last item should be Rainbow Boots.
What a stupid name. It very obviously would be called “pegordidevternal boots”
I wish gagex would do more items like this. Creates an item sink and not having to bring so many switches everywhere would be nice…. Also combine all the dt2 rings with a light bearer. Dt2 rings are hardly ever used cause light bearer is better, so create an item that lets you combine them all. No more ring and boot switches.
Primvouternalsian roles off the tongue a little better
Them biddies lookin crazy
would cream
Honestly, they look dope as hell
thats a great design. fixes the inventory space concern people are upset about, and could be a fun item to strive for honestly. those are insanely powerful boots, though!
This is what im saying man the Jordan Hybrid 100s
Add guardian so we can get them echos on it
Pretty sure you can fit sme spikes under them too
Raids 4 reward combine all boots and combine all necklaces
Bro
What is this, terraria?
Now combine them with the holy guacamoley slippers and you have my upvote
Wait wait wait, where’s the ranged strength and magic damage coming from?
Terraspark Boots type beat
Should makes recipe for disaster 2 and get hybrid barrows boots lol
Stroke
The boots need to be white coloured, as thats what you get when you mix green red and blue.
As a UIM, yes please.
Holy private server batman
Those post look like an updated dragon boots (g) model and a.k.a mcdonalds deluxe. They look so bad.
? = Fancy Boots Fight me
Great. Now there’s gonna be 40 more posts of fucking boots. Boots with nerfed voidwakers and occults on them. Inq boots. Watch. Mark my words. You sir have created a monster. But i like your post
watch jagex announce these tomorrow lol
BARROWS BOOTS, BARROWS BOOTS, BARROWS BOOTS
UNITE THEM
Finally a pair of boots that can handle the stam pot bridge trek
Before ya know it we gonna have some terraspark
Just do it.
Unironically give us hybrid boots though. I'd take a bit of lost efficiency over one less swap and one more inventory slot
Okay deal. I’m down. Have component come from tormented demons
This but make it require 10 of each boot for the item sink
Call them the Guthixian Sabatons since he is the God Of Balance. And also the strongest of them.
Hurry up and throw some echo crystals on
One boot to rule them all.
No Guardian Boots? 😞
The two boots to rule them all!
I mean....
I love it!
love this
But why do they need to be Asian?
Interesting idea.
Then make an imbued version of each boot then it’ll match the rings
These Jordan’s look sick
Fancy boots 2
I thought this was terraria for a sec
Can you remake this post with mole slippers please
Id be okay with it only if you had to right click to toggle activate the different boot options
Maybe we could make some boots out of all three orbs + something for the pray side of it?
Nike Air of osrs. 3-10b gp boot because requires a horses tail to tie it all together dropped on the RDT at a rate of 1/10million
No perm echo? Not worth
What in the Terraria
Devout boots look so clean
Isn't that the name of that one song by Adriano Celentano?
new Jordans look sick
Make them white because Damn Daniel
funny that even combined theyre still useless
If they give us this I’ll stop complaining about occult nerf
Terraria ass item fr
This is the boot buff we need.
Tbh solid item sink. Lock combining them behind some rare drop from sailing and boom
Would love these, maybe with a different look, coming from a raid or an item that must be combined with components from dismantling all 4 of the boots combined with the new raid or rare item.
Looks like McDonald boots
