What is your suggestion?: Please lower rune costs

Is this in OSRS?: Yes

Has this suggestion been accepted already?: No

How would this benefit Alora?: With recent combat reworks for elemental weaknesses/demonbane/etc the need for rune upkeep is much more frequent. It seems a little absurd paying 100gp ea for fire runes, 1k ea for chaos runes, etc. Specifically for group game modes as they get less GP from caskets/rev totems/etc.

Even as a normal mode, rune upkeep is kinda unbalanced rn since we don't have normal shops with normal prices.

If this doesn't get supported, I totally suggest re-enabling the other shops at their normal prices/stocks to use the home vendors as a sort of 'floodgate' for new players.

It sounds from the post like you are seeking solutions for an ironman.

Have you tried:
-Doing barrows just for the runes? (enhanced with row(i) and mory diaries)
-Killing Revenants, Vyres, Kraken, and other endgame bosses for large amounts of runes?
-Getting a staff of light, staff of the dead, or a combination elemental staff to save on rune costs? 
-Buying a tome of fire and buying some pages?

Vet'ion drops 900 chaos runes at a high rate of 1/17. He is the easiest of the 3 wildy bosses to kill and is a good source for a dragon pickaxe too. Just 1-item with a crush weapon and some monk robes or better.

I'm not expressing support or lack of support. I'm just trying to help by providing solutions I used on my ironman and GIM to procure early runes.

all i can say is kekw. this suggestion is aimed at players who are burning through literally 100s of thousands of runes regularly. not the average joe bob who is casting a few air strikes to kill zulrah 3 times for their daily gaming sesh

Yes i support this, and also having an unlimited amount of stock (or instanced shops to the player) would be ideal too

THIS ↑

I'm tired of going to Baba Yaga, Yanille Tower and the Wildy Chaos Wizard guy and seeing 0 on blood runes... need instanced shops so badly. (And the lower cost... 1m for 500 bloods is wild, 500 bloods are gone in like 15mins of casting.)

I strongly support some sort of change. It shouldn’t be everyone gets to spam max runes, but end game players don’t want to spend a chunk of their free time playing the game just to continuously grind supplies and gp instead of pvming. Scar ess mine was supposed to be great in between, but for some reason those runes were still made crazy expensive to upkeep, I think if we were to bump those prices down significantly would be the best inbetween instead of just chucking everything in a store.
