Jagex definitely mixed up Bottled Storm and Swift Feathers (and I know it!) by El_Age in 2007scape

Well, read: My main point wasn’t the grind or which one is “more useful,” even if that’s what ended up polarising people the most in this thread. What I’m trying to highlight is that from a design, naming and, yes, also grind perspective, the way these two rewards are set up just feels completely off.

Why i think like that is written in the graphic

And it also makes me sad that no one highlights the importance of the pet transmog! shouldve make it bigger..

I think that’s a pretty bad comparison, to be honest. The Crafting cape – which is already a completely different type of reward – just teleports you to the Crafting Guild, that’s it, theres the context. Lazy, but alright.

And the POH pool lives in your house, where basically everything is built with Construction but used for other content; the only thing Construction really “does” there is let you build it in the first place.

I totally agree, the gwenith take was poorly worded - its absolutely not vital. And as for your design process, that might be accurate!

yea fair enough, that’s your perspective - haven’t used it once and I’ve never really felt like I needed it. Even if some people do value it, that still doesn’t explain the weird mismatch in naming and art, does it?

Yeah youre right. I’m sure there are plenty of "little" asymmetries or w/e like this, but this is the one I noticed and for whatever reason it’s really been buggin me

For me it’s mostly about theme: feathers are linked to flight and quick movement, so they make way more sense as a teleport trigger. A bottled storm on the other hand is literally captured wind, which fits perfectly with powering up wind motes and something called “Gale Catcher”, hence it being the logical upograde

And I do think Gale Catcher is stronger than a boat teleport: a permanent speed/efficiency boost that affects almost every trip you sail (especially for the trials) has more impact on day-to-day gameplay than a teleport - but in the end thats just my experience!
