But how is it a bug abuse? It's a mechanic the game has installed. The cannon is a representative of a player being present in the room. With a player in the room the specs don't disappear. I mean, I'm sure you know this already I'm just not understanding how it's a bug and how it's being abused.
/e And the house teleport > Rejuv pool > Back to corp is simply a QOL thing. It's not exactly a bug lol.
/e Like you mentioned above, I could do the same shit at Castle Wars but it would be annoying nonetheless. As for the portal at Castle Wars, just because nothing like it had ever existed prior to its release doesn't make it something to shit on. Is it OP? I don't think so at all.
When they released corporeal beast on the livegame, people found out that you can damage it, die, and come back. You could just keep doing this. It had no regen feature, so it worked fine. Jagex realized this, obviously it wasn't intended, and changed it quickly. Then people start using the cannon for the same effect. Guess what happened? Jagex changed it. When no player was in the room - even if a cannon was - the corporeal beast regenerated. The same thing happened with dancing on corp to avoid damage.
Now we are here with the same exact concept. What's the difference? Thanks to some bunk mechanic the osrs team introduced, you can do something to the corporeal beast you couldn't on the livegame, drain its stats etc. What would be the most obvious solution? They would patch and address it. What's happened? Absolutely fucking nothing. Why? Because if they suddenly decide to change this there would be uproar. Uproar from the cancerous streaming community, which basically of their content caters to nowadays anyway. They're afraid to patch an obvious exploit of one of their bosses because its become a meta, a streaming meta especially. Not to mention that anybody in their right mind who thinks this corp killing meta is appropriate needs to have their lobotomy examined because it clearly fucked things up, but not enough to make them brain dead. 'Haha exciting gameplay of special attacking a boss 100 times!!!'
As I said earlier I have no problems whatsoever with new content, new weapons, more powerful items etc. This is not about that whatsoever and I really can't emphasize that enough. I have no problems with any of the raids weapons, or the raids 2 weapons. My complaint is that they refuse to fix obvious exploits/bugs because of the community. Another example of this is the d-spear fiasco. They changed it in the livegame after people started using it to stunlock/move people they way they use it now. Jagex did not intend for this to be a feature in their game and they removed it. What happened on osrs? Well haha, they decided to poll it! Poll an obvious exploit/bug! "well our players found out you can effectively completely immobilize someone and drain their stats after 5 minutes of doing it with enough players. We uh, fixed that on the livegame, should we, haha, fix it here, pls 75% people vote yes to fix it'. Disgusting.

Sure to the rest, but leave karambwans out of this unless they remove the ability to preload specs off a non spec weapon or Gmaul the same tick not being able to food + brew + karambwan would cripple pking.
See, that's a really good point to bring up, I'd like to see how they would address that.
I'm glad some people here are capable of thinking, thanks for the replies you two.
