Hi, i think it would be a good idea to let people spend their pc points on xp in the Pest Control shop, maybe with a daily cap on the xp allowed to be bought (or a very low amount in comparison to regular training) since it is currently unavailable and once everything else is unlocked, there is nothing to spend points on. 

The XP wouldnt have to be OP, just enough to make it worth doing to get 200M stats faster. (maybe lock it so it only lets you access it after max stats since before 99 the xp is fast af anyway)

 

Maybe add some other useful items as well such as  Seed / Herb boxes like in OSRS, small amounts of runes etc. (with a daily cap for ironmen)

I dont think this would take away from individually skilling, but would be a nice addition to constantly grinding

Just a vague suggestion to improve the minigame

I like this idea, if the goal was to get 200m exp. in a skill.

i dont see why not, there is no reason for people to do pest control after they get void/torso etc. Might make it easier on new players who need to get void if theres always a good amount of people there. Support for sure

I support this would love to see pest control get some more attention as its kinda boring after you get elite set then its hard for new players to get people to pc so i think it would benefit veterans and new players!

Support on the XP idea and the resources if it is somewhat similar to OSRS. Would also help attract people with better gear to speed up the pc games for newer players aiming to get void.

100% support this idea for sure! That way people that need Void will have players there that are just there for xp rewards or herb stuff! its a Win/Win situation.

It would be nice to give players an incentive to do Pest Control after getting void/torso or after completing that section of the collection log. The XP one would be also neat for players who want to raise attack, strength, and defense without raising their hitpoints. Herb supplies would be a plus for ironman, too. Support.

This seems like a really good incentive to get more players interested in playing pest control. As of right now, it's mostly just new players that are still trying to unlock their void, so finding people to play with can be tedious at times. This would make it a lot more active, support.

Very nice idea, would help the minigame a lot! New players would have faster games with more players and the grind wouldnt be that long. Support!

I would like to see Pest Control get some new rewards, but XP I am against entirely. I don't think we should keep adding ways to gain XP in skills through combat. It ruins the game in my opinion. I like the idea of small amounts of runes, maybe some additional items, but I do not support adding XP rewards.

You are forgetting that everything i suggested is already in OSRS Pest Control shop and always has been.

But thanks for your feedback

@Seabound Well considering you did not specify that you wanted the XP to be restricted strictly to combat as in OSRS, I assumed it applied to all skills. Regardless, my opinion remains the same that I don't support the idea of an XP reward from a minigame. There's so much more that could be worked on, Pest Control updates seem like a waste of time in my opinion.

Many times I have wanted to join others to help them copmlete their void sets, but for me there is not a single item in there that i need. Really support this idea. Even just adding a crystal key or something in there would make me interested,
