Piss off stakers with this kind of stuff and they'll make sure the economy gets fucking obliterated.
What you fools do not understand is the fact that items in this game are useless. No body buys useless stuff. You don't need 50m gwd armor set because you can buy a 5m void set. You dont need a arcane because you can use an anger weapon that is superior every goddamn weapon in the rest of the game for PvMing. Then there's the ancient equipment that outclass everything in the game, and easy to get. DESPITE the fact they are easy to get, THEY HAVE DEMAND.
If you want more items to have demand, SUGGEST THINGS THAT WILL MAKE THEM ACTUALLY WORTH BUYING AND WORTH USING! Set effects, buffing bonuses, making ancient equipment more expensive to repair... Anything. This economy talk is just bunch of bullshit, because we had way more items back in scape. You could get 10 bandos sets in a hour from banshees on a single account. The difference between bandos then and now is that bandos was THE BEST melee armour set back in the day. Also instead of making bosses harder, make the drops rarer so the gameplay will stay enjoyable. Banking between each kill and getting KC again is the furthest thing from being enjoyable.
There's nothing wrong with the economy, the problem is in the game and its balancing.
Really interesting read, thank you! I think the main conflict with ancient items is, that they are too easy to obtain and to maintain.
I'd recommend following changes:- Corrupt parts drop chances 1.6% --> 1.2%
- Normal parts drop chances: 1.2% --> 0.8%
- Double repair costs
- Corrupt parts charges halved
- Spectral combat power buff
Thoughts on the possible changes?
ًWhy would we suggest the same thing over and over again if Thomy already took a look at it and considered changing it soon ? shouldn't we start with step 2 instead of waiting for this to take place ?
It doesn't matter how hard you try to deny the fact that duel arena is the reason behind this kind of Prices crash, I Quote, " You can get more cash / items in one day at duel arena doing low stakes than you can get doing a whole week pvming ",
seeing people going there with nothing and getting few items then try to sell it for a cheap price to get some ' Fast ' cash is so damn annoying
It doesn't only crash the economy but it makes pvming waste of time, I swear these days you can find people at duel arena more than you can find pvming and at G.E combined ( I would say pking but that won't change anything )
Making the drop more common few months ago to bring more items to the game wasn't a bad idea at all, but keeping it this way all of this time is the bad idea.
Chait bought and dropped over 600 Dfs yet you can still find another 1800 in game( most of them with 3 players / stakers ) imagine what will happen to the price if they ever decides to sell them back to the community.
Few steps should be done to stop this BS, its forcing others to stake just to get some shit to play with
1 - Ancient items changes - Hopefully done in the next update ( which you already stated above ) .
2 - using gambling as a way to sink some items not only an easy way to get rich in few lucky stakes )
3 - Changing the ' Items shown after death ' Timer and limiting the use of G.A / a day ( will be suggested soon )
4 - Changing the GWD kc back to 20 as it used to be before
5 - Making the god damn game harder for high cb levels and a lil bit easier for new comers ( I have no fucking idea why some updates made it harder for new comers to even get some items from Blue dragons )
