What is your suggestion?: Giving ironmen accounts access to a rune shop
Is this in OSRS?: Yes
Has this suggestion been accepted already?: Not that I noticed, if I read over it I apologize. (if it was suggested, read my idea first before taking it down please.)
How would this benefit Alora?: I know this seems ironic that I'm posting this just after getting a scythe but hear me out. On OSRS, ironman accounts are able to buy every type of rune in game from a store (aside from soul runes i believe). Buying runes actually tends to be pretty expensive for early and end game accounts, especially accounts with scythes/sanguenesti staves. Before you call this "ezscape" and brush over it, let me explain my idea. To balance this and not make it too easy, make the price of the runes in the shop 2-3x the price that they are on OSRS. This would make blood runes cost 1000-1500gp each, and would make the other runes quite expensive as well. This gives another use to cash for an ironman, since there are only a select few places it's needed like kingdom and construction. Another balancing addition along side the 2-3x OSRS prices is make this shop only accessible to accounts with 99 runecrafting. This would force people to at least take part in some grinding before they are able to use the shop. Considering this is possible on OSRS with 0 requirements aside from money, I dont see why it cant be possible on Alora.
It has come to my attention that there are 2 shops that sell runes to ironmen. Considering these shops have a limited amount of runes in stock (specifically the death and blood runes), my post still seems valid. Shops on OSRS have limited stock because there are over 100 worlds to hop to and buy out each store. Adding a shop that has an unlimited rune supply (or increase the stock in these stores drastically) with the 99 Runecrafting does not seem like a horrible idea to me. Leave any kind of feedback, negative or positive.
