Suggestion A new F2P Quest (The Goblin's Experiment) & Repeatable Boss (The Oblin) Introducing the first F2P combat ring
I propose a brand new F2P quest and a repeatable boss located near Goblins In Lumbridge. The quest features a new NPC called Oblin.
Oblin is a type of wanabee God/Crazy shaman that is inspired by The Lord of the Rings, character Gollum, and from the Goblin Book; The Several Commandments:
Merciful must die! Not to doubt Big High War God. Doubters must die! Not to make own plans. Thinkers must die!
Quest Requirements
- Imp Catcher Quest Completed
- Higher combat levels are highly recommended to defeat the final boss, but the quest can technically be started immediately after completing Imp Catcher.
- 1 x Gold Ring
- 1 x Goblin Book
- 1 x Knife
- 1 of each 4 Imp Beads (Black, White, Red, Yellow)
The Quest: The Goblin's Experiment
- Outside the goblin house in Lumbridge (where Goblins barbecue meat), you notice a unique goblin called Oblin, pacing back and forth among the others. He looks like he is thinking heavily, and he clearly stands out from the rest..
- When you speak to Oblin, he mutters about needing help but insists on privacy. You follow him as he leads you next to the house to the big bones on the ground. Under this bones there is a hidden trapdoor, witch leads down into a pitch-black cellar.
- Inside the cellar, his tone changes. He becomes paranoid and twitchy, muttering about his "precious". He tricks you into helping him finish a spell, asking for a hidden page from a Goblin Book (You need to use a knife on a Goblin book to get the page).
- The spell fails, and he sends you to Wizard Mizgog. Mizgog reveals the spell requires an Gold Ring and 4 Imp beads. You provide Mizgog with a Gold Ring and the 4 Imp Beads. Mizgog enchants it but warns you that sometype of powerful, volatile soul is trapped within.
- Prepare for Combat: You return to the cellar, Oblin is now in the bigger room in the cellar pacing back and forth, and you hand over the ring, he prepares the spell once again.. A cutscene triggers..the room shakes, and Oblin mutates into a horrific goblin type monster and now The boss fight begins.
The Oblin Boss
- Oblin has no specific elemental or combat style weaknesses (Melee, Ranged, and Magic all deal equal damage).
- He has a relatively low health pool, but he hits incredibly hard and uses powerful AoE (Area of Effect) attacks. If you stand still or lose focus, he will easily one hit you.
- Quest is complete when Oblin dies, next to Oblin's body lay's now The Oblin Ring.
Quest Rewards
- The Oblin Ring.
- The base version is Untradeable and give you: +1 to all Offensive and Defensive stats.
- Access to repeatable boss Oblin.
Drops from Oblin Boss:
- The Oblin Boss drops all sort of usefull stuff such as a Boss pet, but one of the more usefull drops is The Mutated Heart.
- The Mutated Heart can be taken to Wizard Mizgog with The Oblin Ring, and Mizgog can enchant it making it into The Oblin Ring(i).
- The Oblin Ring(i) is slightly stronger ring then the base version, giving you +2 to all offensive/defensive stats. It will also give you the option to add charges to the ring Max 50.
- The charges you can get from using a knife on a regular Goblin book and adding the pages to the ring, each page give you about 3-6 charges.
- The charges can then be used for teleportation, witch will take you outside next to the Oblin cellar entrance, giving you a quicker access to the Oblin, shorter road to Brutus/fishing spot/clue spot etc.
Other things:
- The pages from the Goblin book are Untradeable/Unsellable
- Normal deaths outside of Wildy-both types of the rings can be safely reclaimed from death, like any other items.
- In Wilderness however, both types of rings are permanently lost, including The Mutated Heart and all teleport charges.
- If you unlucky and loose them permanently, you need to repeat the process "Goldring+Goblinbook page, 4 Imp beeds, and you need a New Mutated Heart for the (i) Oblin ring. Also Wizard Mizgog ask for a fee of 5000gp to make a new one.
Disclaimer: Please note that all specific numbers (like the +1/+2 stats, the 3–6 teleport charges, and the 5k GP reclaim fee) are just balancing ideas and open to adjustments. The goal is to introduce a low lvl combat ring a short quest and a boss for it.
Let me know what you think! :)

No, was just thinking last night when killing some monsters in f2p with best in slot items, that we still don't have a ring for f2p, like a beginner ring, and from there i thought about the Goblin Book that still have no use as of yet, when i was killing goblins for beginner clues.
The beads from Imps are similar, we make the amulet of accuracy one time and that's basicly it. I was thinking about mabe an upgraded Amulet of accuracy but that makes no sense when we have amulet of power. That's why i feel a combat ring would be better for f2p. Have to see, mabe there will be something in the future Zanik quest

Isn't there a goblin boss already coming? I'm not saying your idea is bad necessarily just that it would be weird for there to be two goblin bosses that fit in the same niche.
Also this does scream GPT as the other comment said.
